Also Aust HitMan...I ended the draft like 7 hours late waiting for you to send in your picks...how can you say I ended it early? I started round 5 around 1 pm my time and ended it 10 pm my time the next day....

Nikhil,
I realise I picked Ashwell Prince and he counted as a keeper. However, in real life, he is not. Can this be changed for the squad please?

 

[kears_falcon_9]

i picked jimmy maher who isnt realli a kepper so im still looking for a full time keeper the draft is getting excitng lol

 

[Cloete]

Isn't J Paranjpe a keeper in real life?? Becasue in the current draft roudn he isn't a keeper!

Nikhil, as discussed on msn, i didnt receive the email from you till late, theand the other email was redcieved laon time, therefore it seemed the draft had 2 hours left to run, by that time i had just come home from work and seen draft was closed i couldnt submit for last round.

since he did not bowl that much he was put down as keeper

Nikhil,

Players who do not have bowling styles will be put down as keepers...and it wont make him a bad keeper because keepers wont have fielding skills so dont worry about it

 

[DJellett]

Yes, but Nikhil, I've now already got 2 keepers when I want to hold 1 keeper pick, can this PLEASE be changed?
Just make him a medium bowler or something...

 

[AUST_HiTMaN]

LOL Who cares, use him as a batter and a non keeper, simple. If you wanted to fill your batting order with keepers, just use 1 of them as the proper keeper and the rest as specialist batsmen :P

 

[NikhilN]

Yes, but Nikhil, I've now already got 2 keepers when I want to hold 1 keeper pick, can this PLEASE be changed?

sry I cant cause if I do people will ask me to change their players stuff and it wont be fair

 

[DJellett]

Yes, but isn't there a rule of 2 keepers, no more, no less?
I want to keep a pick for a keeper in hand until I have a high pick and there's a good keeper up for picking.

 

[NikhilN]

Fine ill change the rule...no less then 2 keepers but you can have more then 2? happy with that?

 

[NikhilN]

Round 8 will be pushed back a while...sorry guys but I am running 2 leagues here and I got other stuff to do too so I hope you understand...but once the draft is over everything will be fine

 

[DJellett]

Good Idea Nik.

 

[Cloete]

Nikhil I e-mailed my round 7 draft picks a couple of days ago. But I won't be able to get my Round 8 Draft Picks in(Whenever we strart to do them) until tomorrow aftyernoon asussie time!

 

[NikhilN]

Round 8 will start in a hour...so I hope you are on then
