At least I get to pick twice in a row? hey I can’t tell you how many times last year it took me forever to decide between two players to draft so your decisions are definitely easier!😭

would an August 2nd start be enough time? if we start July 26th I’m toooootally screwed and also going to be a terrible admin.

Last year we did 224 picks from August 4, 2023 @ 11:02 a.m. to August 8, 2023 @ 10:32 p.m. Last year's draft took 4 days, 11 hours, and 30 minutes, or 4.48 days. That's 50.00 picks per day. With 252 picks this year, at the same rate as last year, we'd finish in 5.04 days. So yes, I think that should be fine. 😅

July 27-August 4 I am going to have very limited time to look at fantasy, ESPECIALLY August 1-4. when’s the first game of the season? not trying to base the draft around me and my schedule, but if no one has objections, then I also don’t want to hold the draft up the first couple days for no reason… if we really did it in 4-5 days, July 26th would probably be better lol but honestly August 9th would be best🫣 that’s like 2.5 weeks before season starts right?

Season starts the week of the 26th. Probably want to be done with the draft by Fri. the 23rd at the latest. 4-5 days really is on the fast side. Probably want to allow at least 7-10 days for the draft. Starting on the 9th would have us finished by the 13th-16th ish. Should be fine. 🤷♂️

I plan to be in Italy/Greece on 8/6-8/17 but I can coordinate appropriately with admins to have my pics ready. Last year, I think I rushed some in the interest of moving the draft along and want to avoid that mistake again.

Starting on August 2nd is perfect for me. 26 through 31st will be brutal for me.

Last year, I think I rushed some in the interest of moving the draft along and want to avoid that mistake again. I could do starting aug 2nd but I’d really need my pick to be by 3ET at the latest probably. and then I’d need some grace on the other end for the second round. probably wouldn’t be able to pick until closer to midnight…

I don't care when we start, but vup did say the 26th originally, so that's when I set the challengers league. My only preference is that both drafts start at the same time.

Dang, I think this is my first year in the bottom half of the draft. Suddenly I wish we had gone with the keeper idea.. And here I am in the bottom half of the draft seven of the eight years I've played... If I never made the podium I'd be pissed
