Yep. 8pm start tomorrow with 8 hours per pick. I am not sure about the night time features though so once I get in can increase clock. Actually I might start with 24 hours and we can scale down.
Yeah start with 24 hours. That gives me two days to build some suspense 😎👍

24 hours will inevitably mean we go whole days with no action as someone times out. I'd recommend 12 hours if we're concerned about not being able to pause in the evening. I figured we'd run with 8 and then (there's enough commissioners) we just pause the draft between midnight and 6am.

No one times out at 12 hrs what makes u think they'll time out with 24 hrs?

I feel like we have someone nearly time out every season.. as in, use up all but the last few minutes of the time for the pick. If that happens with 12 hours and a paused draft overnight, then it'll happen with 24 hours. I don't see why anyone would need 24 hours to make a selection.
Set the clock to 24 hours to begin with. Start it at midnight and let's get cracking
I'm all for starting ASAP, especially if there's going to be 24 hours on the clock for every selection.

Live trading, when we added live trading the clock runs on a lot of picks for how ever long it can really while people on the clock either shop their pick or respond to trade offers. If we're running a 24 hour clock for each selection then I don't think we can do live trading (assuming this platform will support how I've done live trading in the past).
 
Why are we starting in the evening? It's like booking flights for a big holiday in the evening. Sit around all day waiting lol

Because more people will be around to enjoy the first few picks. And we have 2 other drafts starting so can have a staggered start.

Just for tomorrow to get a feel for the draft room. I think/hope everyone has app alerts so should be quick. I’ll keep a close eye on the draft times and will update times.

We are on track to be done earlier than ever. Usually we don’t start till a round of practice matches happen. We might finish without seeing anything.

Will they though? Set it for midnight imo. Let's have a poll

I think the clock can be reduced Tuesday. I'm just saying start with 24 hours so we can open it up in 2 hours
 
Rockford said start. Jordie liked my post. No brainer imo

I appreciate that everyone is keen but with a new platform and the draft room only being open recently I don’t think it’s fair for everyone to start early. Not everyone would have set a queue yet. I’m a fanatic and I’ve only just done mine.

Draft time is a generous 24 hours for tomorrow but will reduce the following day. As you pointed out this gives us a chance to not miss anything and for the draft to run smooth.

There's been plenty of time. It's fair. Start at midnight. Or 8am.

Our new leagues draft has just gone live. It was due to open at midnight but wasn’t active till 7am.

There is a couple of differences to be aware of so far.

There doesn’t seem to be a way to turn the clock off over bedtime hours. We can pause the clock at 11pm manually and start it at 7am manually till that function goes live. Alternatively longer pick times to account but as Rockford suggested we all are frowns ups and can pause and unpause. And if you happen to be awake at 4am and want to take your pick I’m sure you still can or you can unpause, pick and pause again.

I’ll tag everyone in later today when I’ve had a pick and a chance to play.

It still says 8pm kick off?
 
Something interesting is when you pause the draft and resume it the clock starts again.

Which I don’t like very much.

I picked for Deeman and then it was my pick. I didn’t get an alert but I was already in the draft room. I’m hoping alerts do happen though when it’s your pick.

There is also a reset draft state button next to the resume draft button but I’m to scared to press that one.
