I'm thinking we might do away with lists next year. It seemed like a good idea but I'm getting so many lists, which means Gavin or I have to sit here all day and make draft picks for everyone else. So you guys get to send a list and walk away, while we're literally stuck to the computer all day doing the work for everyone else. Not exactly very fun.

Maybe good a couple/few GMs on board to be designated List Handlers to offload this from you/Gav...

Just a thought, but maybe next year we can legit set up a Saturday starting at a certain time and we all draft "live" for the five rounds.. or split it up between a saturday and sunday. I don't know. It's a bit hard trying to draft at certain times of a week day while you're working.. and to your point, thats when you probably get the most lists so it can't be fun for you either. That way, i also think the draft would be a bit more exciting. I totally get that we'd hvae to get a strong committment for a day or two.. but hey.. fantasy leagues do live drafts all the time.. so why can't we? Everyone gets five minutes for their pick. Just a thought..

Was thinking that too Kev, but then it would be a hell of an effort to get 26 GMs in here at once for an entire Saturday. 5 rounds is a lot of picks, and I guarantee you there would be more skipped picks, given the 5 min windows.

There is an obvious answer here. Lets get all the GMs to do the draft at some resort we all go to and we can all hangout and drink for real!

Cmonnn... it can't be that hard if we give everyone like a month's notice? Even if we get 20 out of 26.. and the other 6 give lists .. it shouldnt be as bad. And let's calculate how much time we'd actually need.. 5 minutes per pick, that's 12 picks per round. That's 2 hours per round (max). 2 hours x 5 rounds = 10 Hours. So you could do start at 10 am ... go until 8 pm Or do 5 hours on Saturday (10-3) and then Sunday night (4pm to 9pm). I don't know.. I just think it would be a lot easier on one or two days versus 5 days.. but that's just me.

I love the idea of a live draft but not sure everyone would be available for it.
I think at the very least what should be done is that a list is sent to another GM to make the pick so that it isn't all on Jon and Gavin. I guess there could be an issue if that GM misses your pick and you are skipped but we can probably figure that out.

Every team is paired up with another GM and they are responsible for making sure the other team is missing can make their picks?
