To prevent further frustration and delays, I am introducing a new rule which will come into effect after Michael times out or makes his selection.

If a player has been timed out and hasn't made a catch-up selection before his next time slot, that time slot shall be reduced from 12 hours to 2 hours.

If participants think this is too harsh. I'm prepared to extend the 2 hours to a little longer. Comments are welcome.

@Michaelf7777777 up - I'm presuming the above is still the case re how long his reduced time is? - is this correct @Line and Length

@srbhkshk up in 2 hours if so

Was expecting more of a reaction with the Ames pick.

That's the case ... but I'm up before srbhkshk

It seems most are leaving their 'keeper selection towards the end of the draft. I may have been premature in taking Dhoni in Round 2.

 

[Line and Length]

@Michaelf7777777 You are 40 minutes into your reduced 2 hour time slot (see new rule highlighted above). You can make your catch up Round 7 pick along with your Round 8 pick in that time otherwise you have 2 catch-up picks.

 

[Himannv]

When all is done we will have 56 from each pool.

And that's when the real draft starts?

Sorry, I'm paranoid after @stephen did a number on us.

 

[JOJOXI]

My bad

It seems most are leaving their 'keeper selection towards the end of the draft. I may have been premature in taking Dhoni in Round 2.

Yeah I had picked up on the lack of people getting keepers too - the 2 I considered Engineer and Flower were picked just as I was considering them for my next pick

And that's when the real draft starts?

Sorry, I'm paranoid after @stephen did a number on us.

I wouldn't do that ... but you're giving me ideas.

 

[Line and Length]

Michaelf7777777's truncated time slot is up.

I'll have Matthew Hayden.

@srbhkshk is now up to be followed by Fuller Pilch, JOJOXI and kingkallis to complete Round 8.

@Michaelf7777777 has two catch-up picks.

 

[Line and Length]

@srbhkshk has 9 hours left and @Fuller Pilch can jump in 3 hours time.

Didn't know Shakib played an Ashes

He didn't, but my initial OP indicated that Pool 1 comprise "Ashes + Minnows" and noted it was players from England, Australia, Zimbabwe and Bangladesh.
