Sweet. Someone had told me 2 bottles per.

How much is it and is it really that good?

I won't be checking a bag on the way there but I will be checking one on the way home. It will be filled with bubble wrap and beer.

9pm CST tonight?

Not crazy about it, but if it works for everyone else, I can swing it. Might have to draft from my phone for the first few rounds, but wouldn't be the end of the world.

I'd rather do that than a slow draft.

This sucks...

What time would we need to start tonight for you?

Since no one wants to do it over the weekend we will be running into the same problems this week or next.

Geauxld and Wise. How late would we need to start on Thursday for you to "make it?"

I won't be able to make it at all Thursday. It's not a big deal I can have somebody else draft my team if needed.

Seriously... I can make it work if it works for everyone else. I'm getting anxious to get a draft done anyway. Let's just see if anyone else has conflicts first. If I'm the only one, I don't want to push it back for everyone else.

There is no telling on thursday for me. It's a business dinner so I could end up having to go out later. I would say 930, but i really couldn't be sure. If we can swing tonight, let's do it and get it over with.

I hate to say it, but I think we might have to do a slow draft... Unless we can do it late on Tuesday or Wednesday (not sure what everyone's conflicts look like on those days)

But I think we will run into the same problem next week. And this weekend is definitely out for me.

I'm willing to try for a slow draft if we can have some leniency on the time requirements. Not sure how everyone else feels.

What is a slow draft?

And is 100% participation needed? Most of my leagues we go for as many people as possible, but if a person can't show up the show must go on.

Slow draft is drafting on here in this thread and picking relatively quick but you have a huge time limit if needed for work/travel. It takes a couple days to complete but can be useful/fun.

I could get everyone's # and text them when it's their turn if needed.

I agree, but I would like to try to include everyone...

Yeah, I think the next fairest thing to do would be to leave it on Thursday and Geauxld would just be SOL unfortunately. I'm not advocating for that yet, but it was the original agreed upon date/time.

I haven't done one, but basically a slow draft is where we would have a TD thread for the draft and you have to respond within a few hours for your pick. It would take days to finish and it would require you to check TD fairly regularly, but it would get done.
