Previous message                 Next message Message #: 14230 Message from: Alan Boodman Sent: Sep 15, 2006 Subject: draft procedure This is basically a copy & paste of what was posted last season; the way the draft is conducted has not changed.   --------------------------------------------------------------------   Please post all picks to the SmileyList AND cc me just in case the list malfunctions.  If the list is slow or malfunctions - as it nearly always does at draft time - it's a good idea to check the SmileyList website from time to time if possible, to keep up with the draft progress:   http://sports.groups.yahoo.com/group/SmileyList/messages   I will update the 1980 files after each round of the draft when I have a chance, and I will also update the 1980 draft page regularly (usually after every pick):   http://smileyleague.org/drafts/1980drft.htm   (The above page will be available after Sunday's lottery.)   Each team has 6 hours in which to make their pick, which begins when you are put "on the clock".  The clock is suspended every night from 11 PM ET to 8 AM ET the next morning.  If necessary (hopefully it won't be) the limit may be reduced to 4 hours at the beginning of some round, or lists may be required as we approach the end of the draft.   If there is ANY CHANCE that you won't be available to make your pick - and your turn can often come around a lot faster than you may think - PLEASE send me a list.   Once the team ahead of you makes their selection, you do not need to wait for me to put you on the clock, you can send your pick right away.   However: if time expires on the team in front of you, please wait for me to put you on the clock, since that team may have authorized HAL to make a selection (see below).  Hopefully that situation (time running out) will occur very infrequently, if at all.   Effective with 1978, HAL will no longer automatically make draft picks when time expires on a team.   What this means is that if time expires, the team on the clock will be skipped, the draft will continue, and the skipped team can jump back in at any time and make their pick.   If you would rather NOT be skipped in that situation - meaning that HAL will make the pick for you, and you will be stuck with whoever he selects - let me know BEFORE the situation arises.  HAL will not be used to make picks for your team unless you let me know in advance that he should be permitted to do so.   This utilization of HAL pertains only to cases when time has expired on your pick; it has nothing to do with allowing HAL to make picks for you in the late rounds of the draft when only scrubs are left, and we're trying to get this thing over with.  You can still authorize that at any time.   Thanks in advance for your cooperation and good luck to everybody!   Alan
