Scorecard Draft II

Still think that Himannv needs to pass judgement because IMO it should remain as Salman to pick from Somerset's and carry on from there in order. Would be a different case if Somerset hadn't picked (although still pathetic and against the spirit of the game to jump in when there's general confusion as to who is to pick)

marc, don't behave like you have never taken part in a draft here...

As soon as player A misses his turn, player B's time starts...And as soon as player B's time is up too, player C gets to pick his player...This is true in all the drafts I have played so far...

I have been in player B's position in other drafts, and today it's salman who is player B and I am player C...

Do I need to dig up some posts from some previous drafts to show you examples of such scenarios? Or, is there any chance you get your memory back before that?

I think that was how it was supposed to be played (the part highlighted in bold). Not sure what exactly is wrong here. I thought weldone was going fine when 2 players had missed their turn in 24 hours time.

Thanks for the answer guys.

Hopefully your wives give you an answer along the same lines when you take off your pants.

In other words, there's no way in hell that I can't pick a player after 24 hours have passed since Marcuss' pick.

Anyone who doesn't agree with the sentence above is declaring that he has a brain of the size of a peanut. :p

This conversation sequence is ITSTL for two reasons.

a.) Do you ask your wife "What the heck do I do?" when you take off your pants?

b.) It implies that people take turns on your wife... :ph34r:

TBF, Marc has always taken the same stance that he has here.
In any draft that he has run himself, the timer re-starts if no drafter picks out of turn.
So while you were actually able to pick when Somerset eventually made his pick, Marc's opinion is that Salman has 12 hours from that point.

As I understand it. Salman picks from my scorecard and hb picks from weldone's.

I will break your peanuts if i don't get the answer to my question.
salman, pick a player who has played with Clive Lloyd, but not in Marcuss' scorecard. Of course, you can't pick Jeff Thomson or Wes Hall. You also have to post a scorecard to prove that the person you choose has played with Lloyd.

I hope that helps.

I have, and usually end pissed off with them because of tossers who have no regard for any sense of sportsmanship in them by snatching within seconds of times elapsing, especially when people have warned they may be struggling to get on. 12 hour drafts mean this sort of issue can often occur,
