^ Technically speaking, since it's been 24 hours, you are allowed to pick again if you like morgieb.

^ Technically speaking, since it's been 24 hours, you are allowed to pick again if you like morgieb.
Technically not I think:

First 12 hours: SCC to pick
SCC times out
Next 12 hours: morgieb to pick
Morgieb times out
Next 3 hours: SCC to pick
Morgieb does catch-up pick
Next 4.5 hours: SCC to pick still
Now
4.5 hours until SCC times out

So SCC has two catch-up picks, and morgieb has 4.5 hours to wait before SCC times out and he can pick again. i think.

Y no Afghanistan flag
With the exception of Hobbs (who morgie actually picked anyway) I reckon SCC and morgie could just pick 11 players at one go and there wouldnt be duplicates.

Didn't expect this to drag on this long, but hopefully morg & Silly Cow are on the final straight now.

SCC can currently make three picks. However, if he times out once more from here I think that will mean he has forfeited the round.
