I wanted to pick it in the 2nd round, but the game is good enough to go in the first round IMO.

Who thinks I should expand the field to 32? I was worried early about lack of interest, but their seems to be a steady flow of gamers.

Tell me about it. I think that this will get really hard around the 4th round. Buy the 7th round we will be busting out the dance dance revolution choices.

No way. It will be impossible to go 10 rounds with 32 people. I have a hard time thinking of 100 great games let alone 320.

I'd recommend making the time later. 8:00 AM is really early for people on the left coast.

I don't want to change it now, as in today, because everyone thinks it's at 11.

Understandable.. how about make a post that starting for Round 3(Monday), the time changes.

That is if you want to change the time. Ultimately it is your decision, as its your game.

OK, starting Monday picks will be accepted at 12 PM EST. I'll update the rules on page 1 after the picks start.

Another selection of mine gone. I can't see any of my original list lasting past round 4.

yep, this was my round 2 selection. Picking in the middle of the round is going to be the death of me I think.

There's no set draft order. Anyone can draft 1st in a round if they're the 1st to post after 11 AM.

Does anyone not want to move the draft time to 12 PM EST because it conflicts with the music draft or for any other reason?

just wanting to verify that the drafting starts in about 10 minutes, correct?

The only other reason I could see would be daylight savings time starts.
