Ok cheers. I think even if we were being strict then Peru FC would have until 6 hours from whenever it was 9am in Peru today! Maybe if La-Maquina and you would like you could move to position 11 and make a pick though - I dunno (both of you are late entrants I suppose)? Maybe Peru making two picks together would work well if he can do them together or within about an hour of each other (if he might not be online as much as some people)? But yeah you can PM me if you like. I guess if it gets into tomorrow you will be online before me, but if Peru picks before tonight (in the next 4 or 5 hours) then I might see his pick/s.
Oh well, let's see. I am opened to anything. At least,I have you covered my time slot... I won't delay the draft while I am sleeping.
Yeah, it's more La-Maquina's call than mine but it looks like you would be ok to make a pick now and take position 11 in the order which might work well in terms of drafting times. But I do have your possible choices you sent anyway so can announce a pick or two if I'm online and you are not.

I've posted Excape's first pick and replied to his PM to confirm. I've tagged Peru for two picks on the selection thread too.
I am all for not waiting to long for Peru. he was one of the major offenders in the last draft of being significantly late.
Well he has 6 hours from Excape's pick now, so hopefully he'll log on this evening (probably overnight for those of us in Europe) and make two picks fairly close together or at the exact same time even as profiles are not really necessary.
@el cabezon to pick again now Neeskens, Zidane, Bozsik, M.Laudrup, Matthuas and Van Basten being shared between me, EG and Peru is maybe not surprising but perhaps the way they have been shared out is a touch unpredictable?
poetgooner:- George Best (D) babaorum:- Johan Cruyff (B) Tom Stevens:- Cristiano Ronaldo (B) Steller:- Alfredo Di Stéfano (B) thebigman:- Paul McGrath (D) Karloski:- Franz Beckenbauer (A) socrates83:- Franco Baresi (A) La-Máquina:- Ferenc Puskás (C), Michel Platini (A) el cabezon:- Gaetano Scirea (A), Giacinto Facchetti (A) PDG1978:- Johan Neeskens (B), Zinedine Zidane (A) Excape Goat:- József Bozsik (C), Michael Laudrup (C) Perú FC:- Lothar Matthäus (A), Marco van Basten (B)
Puskas probably is the top pick for Group C. I know József Bozsik is worshipped here by many. Redondo(I am allowed to talk about him) is another example. Let's hope those people are in this draft and view him on the same level of the rest of the first and second rounders. Michael Laudrup at least is a top 5 in that group. I don't know if I would lose out for not drafting Zidane or Platini in the end. I now have two solid Group C players.
I originally had a midfielder from Pool B (just noticed he's just been picked!) lined up but the availability of Platini changed things! (I also didn't intend to draft a French player from Pool A).
I had a real headache between 2 players for my next pick. Dragan Dzajic was one...so that headache has gone...just hoping thebigman doesn't go for my other choice.
I'm just hoping you don't pick who I am wishing for. You seem to be picking between my top 2 choices for each pick so far Also @La-Máquina I had to make the Socrates82 account while out of town just to make sure no confusion there.
I've completely changed my mind in the last few minutes...and it may bite me in the ass later on (I was going to dip into section C).....but I just dont think I can pass the opportunity up.
