With the draft fastly approaching, I thought it would be good to post times and see when everyone is avalible. I am avalible at any random time within the week but the weekends I am usually away from my computer for a lenghty period of time.

I think Taco scheduled it to start on Monday, 5/15, which is when my schedule makes me totally open.

I think we should do what we did last year, and have the draft run from 8am EST to Midnight every day.

If I get to move to my new apartment before the draft starts I will be available all the time- if I'm moving when the draft is going on I will be away quite a bit...

Also- What is everyone's opinion on the utility? Should we try to use Tredwel's again? Maybe get VPI's or something else?

I think the utillity last year worked fine. However, VPI's may be better.

I like VPI's the best of the three I've used...


Wednesday and Friday I'll be working most of the day/night, and Saturday and Sunday I'llprobably be working in the evenings...

I don't mind which utility we use, as long as we get to use one. I will rely heavily on the utility.
Especially since I probably won't have much online time, on top of my usual time differential problems...

I'll be able to use a preference list when not avaliable, so I shouldn't hold things up. Having said that, I'm not sure when I'll be avaliable as I start a new job on Monday.

I may be wrong, but this is not how I read the schedule.

5/15 does show 'draft', but I am pretty sure we start the draft in the early to mid FA stages. So it would be more like a 5/11 start date.

Taco, can you confirm ?

didnt care for tredwel version much.

Yes, that is right, FFF. I am planning on starting the clock after FA stage 6 (5/9). Teams can even make picks before that, but they do not have to. If we finish the draft before 5/19 then we will move the other stages up.

As for the utility, I would rather use VPI's if we can get it. Tredwel's version is sufficient, but I believe VPI's is better and easier to use. Would someone volunteer to ask VPI if he would set up his utility for us? He said he would do so before...

Didn't VPI post the code for it on FOFC?

I know enough PHP to figure stuff out with it.

Now that you mention it that sounds familiar. I just did a quick search but couldn't find it. Can anyone else track it down?

_________________

I'm pretty sure I PM'd him about it before the last draft and he said that he was willing to help.

You may want to contact him at FOFC, Taco.
