Pro tip: Tournaments tend to lose steam the longer they take. The shorter the time limit the better.
Guys, Chud is right

I once ran one with a 6 hour limit. You'd wake up the next morning and there'd be like 3 people eligible to pick. it was glorious.

And now I don't get to grab my picks back to back. Thanks a butt-ton, Stip!
I'm always getting boned on draft order in these tourneys. Christ.

Alright, we'll run with eight hours.

If you want that last spot back, I'll give it to you. It was yours to start with...

If Kaius doesn't get his pick in by 12:07 Eastern Time tonight, we'll let the next person pick. That'll have given him twenty-four hours from the time Varis picked. After that point, we'll go with an eight hour time limit. You could also designate someone to put your pick in for you if you think you'll be away when your turn comes up; Just let us know who you designated.

I really don't care. I was just razzing Stip. I'm fine drafting whenever.

I'll move you back there. I hadn't stopped to consider that to some people that last spot in the round is the premium spot. It's not fair to take it from you.

Also, did anyone PM Kaius to let him know he's up?

Work was nuts. I'm on my way home an hour late. My pick is ready. I'm on my phone now so let me get home and I'll blow your collective minds. It's about to get sexy in here.

Whatever you think is best, my friend. I'm just along for the ride. I just want it on record that I honestly don't care. I'll take whatever.

Joey, don't let stipplemom draft ahead of you. He'll take him, and then I'll feel bad.

Shit, I really wanted the double pick. If I don't get both these guys my strategy is out the window

Your two picks still aren't really that far removed from each other.
