Draft Discussion
« on: November 08, 2014, 02:05:53 PM »
Someone should be sending draft notifications to the league. There shouldn't be all these skipped picks going on in the first-round.

I have not received a single pick-notice since we began and it seems obvious that neither is anyone else and thus, all the "skipped picks".

Why isn't this happening?

Red Sox autopick Tyler Beede.

How did the Red Sox get two picks in the same round?

We don't need to send 1,200 PM's to the entire league regarding every pick.  We didn't do it last year and it worked out just fine.

The date of the draft has been posted for some time and a PM alerting the league was sent out.  If an owner can't be bothered to check the board once a week then we probably need to find a new owner for that team. 

Please don't post your comments or questions in the draft thread.  Thanks.

Every other league sends out notifications after every pick. No reason why this league can't. Not everyone can live on the website. Let's play a gentleman's game.

If people are notified it's their turn and still don't pick, then so be it, but let's at least give everyone that chance. It doesn't take but a few clicks on the keyboard to do so.

I'm in several leagues that don't send out notifications after every pick so you're quite obviously wrong.

Checking this site once a week doesn't constitute living on this site but you're free to PM every owner after every pick through round forty if you like.  Just don't PM me though, I'm good.

Their probably your own leagues, but the other two you are in along with myself, both send out notifications and all 5 leagues I play indo as well.

I'm also quite sure I'm not the only one who would like to be notified when it's their turn to pick.

I'm sure everyone will be happy to leave you off the list.

Geez. Welcome back to the league. I'd like notifications for those doing so. Will get :NYM: up to speed this afternoon. Been touring England this week watching the Cowboys stomp the jags.

Chris, I never meant for you to be the one to send all the notifications. I was thinking of a "next man up" system where after each person picks, they send a PM to the next person on the list.

That shouldn't be problem for you, should it?

17) :ATL: Atlanta Braves (via :NYM:) - Justus Sheffield, P autopick

The 2.17 pick of mine was given to the Braves incorrectly.  If you check our rosters, you'll see that the ATL-NYM traded picks were 2015, not 2014.

This is true... I remember clarifying this when I processed the trade.
