All-Time Husky Draft Game

[tcf15]

Did we stall?

Im in division 2 and just did my 3rd and 4th round picks. Think people are taking the full 12-15 hours to make their picks.

We have about 1.56 rounds left. Should be over by the end of the weekend.

 

[joober jones]

I'm still waiting to do my 4th round pick but it'll probably come up soon.

I just did my 3rd and 4th picks. Shouldn't last more than a few more days.

tcf, I hope you have done some film study for this. No slacking off is allowed!

This all time husky draft is a great idea that we should do every year, however I think we need to raise the bar and up the ante and shorten the time between picks each year, next years draft should be 4-8 hours.

I agree 100% but we would need active users. Maybe some sort of chat room to do it in real-time?

Agreed. It's been almost a week since my last pick

Yeah, it's hard, too. I check early and often, but I was traveling last week, and, despite the frequency of checking, somehow missed the pick coming to me at 6:30-ish PM, and so didn't pick until 8:30 AM.

I'm sure that's the case with everyone. If you don't have something like push notifications, it's easy to take a long time with the pick.

Real-time draft would probably be the best, if possible.

I do like keeping it private, though. There was too much speculation, or on the fly criticism last year.

I was at a wedding last night and was checking the boneyard to see if anything popped up come on with this day in age of technology, it takes 2 seconds to respond type the name click boom done next person.

Its a matter of checking the Boneyard. Some have it as a favorites and visit it 50 times a day (myself), and others do it while they're browsing the internet late at night and if they're bored enough they visit.

It was weird, I checked it repeatedly, but not from my computer: ForumRunner decided against showing me the updated comment.

That's the only thing I can imagine; I'm always on this site.

 

[Minicoop69]

We need to do it via groupme or something where we can push notifications to our phones. Groupme is a text messaging app. I use it and it's pretty good

or put this as your homepage... or just go to this site once an hour or so

Oh, I do. Just apparently with this draft not everyone does. That's why it is taking forever to draft a team.

Yep.

 

[UConnSwag11]

Start giving them Darius smith, Ed Nelson, Jamal trice, kevin Bailey, etc

Those were my next picks

 

[CTBasketball]

Yeah I had to skip someone's pick in Division 1. It was taking way too long. @Scoe you're on the clock.

 

[Scoe]

I always check the boneyard while taking a dump.

 

[HuskyFich]

Whoever's pick we are currently on automatically is receiving Jonathan Mandledove. This is absurd

 

[UConnSwag11]

It's been one week since my last pick. Give these people walkons

 

[PcketknfNiels]

You should either run one without Emeka and Kemba or just not run it at all. Or somebody needs to pony up for a whatifsports account or anything else that would allow the customization of teams ran on a decent simulation engine. Otherwise it's just weeks/months of dicking around for the Kemba/Okafor finals and nobody else really has a chance.

There's probably some merit to your point but I'm fairly certain @jfuchs91 won last year without either of them on his team.

and make that another week since my last pick, this is ridiculous, i wonder if were even playing this game anymore. Next year we need to seriously crack down on the time and I mean really crack down, like a 2-4 hour window. Automatically hand the person a walk on.
