OUT OF CHARACTER BOARD

[Cory]

Not nearly as severe as Jag but my power went out at home while I was at work and fried my CPU. Gonna try and buy a new tower off eBay ASAP but gonna be doing everything off my phone so might slow up a bit.

[Cory]

What's up with the draft? Whose stallin?

What's up with the draft? Whose stallin?

Rob knows he's up. He's currently in talks with Jen about a trade.

[Rob]

I am stalling... I know I am stalling and I'm sorry that it's happening but you'll just have to wait for now.

[J-Reb]

We need a time limit on each pick.

[Rob]

To be fair dude, what am I supposed to do? Tell Ian to hurry up? No.


Sometimes these things take a little longer. I'm not going to rush just because some people are being a tad impatient

Being impatient leads to mistakes in the FBL.

I know that probably sounded snippy but honestly didn't mean for it to be.  I wasn't referring to you in particular.  It's part of the draft strategy.  No major sports league has an open drafting period.  I know we can't all be on at the same time but a 12 hour window should be sufficent.

12 hours should be, but look at me.  I went to bed last night around 7 or 6 PM.  Internet wasn't flat out down, but was real, choppy.

I get up at 1 AM to get ready for work, and internet is DOWN.  Work till 11 AM and internet is still down when I get home.  However it's up about 30 mins later but still....

[Cory]

I agree on a time thing, 12 hours makes sense. Not to not pick, I think we've all took extra time at some point trying to make a deal, but much like a REAL draft it shouldn't be open time limit.

[Ty]

I disagree, no need to rush life

[GM Franchise]

Maybe the mafia 24 hour night action rule could be used for this. 24 hours to make a pick.

[Ty]

Or we can use this to give Ian break

[Cory]

That's what I'm thinking. The wait doesn't bother me, I'm just saying maybe some draft guidelines wouldn't hurt. But giving Ian a break he deserved it

[T-Bonizzle]

Considering people slow down their picks because they are waiting on Ian's responses, a hard time limit is unfair. He doesn't hawk FBL 24/7, even if the rest of us do. Had Josh and I not wanted the same player I would have stopped the draft dead too when it was on my pick.
