Zaremba and Z-man both have 12 hours to pick. If I don't hear from either, I'll let two others take over for them.

So officially all of my strike bower options are gone. Thanks guys.

If they dont vote, cant we just cap it at 16?

[kingkallis]

Are you serious???

 

[Cabinet96]

I reckon I got a bargain with Kallis.

Yeah, I would have gone for him but did so in my last draft and it didn't go that great, so though I'd change things up a bit

 

[Howe_zat]

Matt Prior

[kyear2]

[Howe_zat]

Since z-man seems to have disappeared off the face of the Earth, I'm offering his team. In particular to Himannv, who just missed out when gathering signatures and had already expressed interest in this elsewhere before we'd started.

 

[Spikey]

while we're here post the quiz questions damnit.

 

[Eds]

Spikey speaking sense.

 

[Spikey]

I meant to post about it the other day, but it just seems like a waste of time to not do the quiz questions for next round until the current round finishes. maybe there's something obvious I'm missing though

 

[kingkallis]

Yeah post the questions already Howe.

 

[Howe_zat]

To be honest, it didn't even occur to me to have the draft and quiz going on at the same time.

I haven't got all the questions for round 2 written yet but I'll have them up tonight.
