I just shared the Google sheet via email created by Journeyman If the link doesn't work let me know This will be very important as we go through the season. There are three tabs so make sure you look at all three.
Did you email that to all of us? I didn't get the email about the Google sheets - but I did get the one with the draft order.
August 3 is the start date and Norm can let us know what time he intends to start us off I will create draft thread soon. Look at the draft order and make sure you know to contact the person before you and after you. Once you make a pick you will need to let next person know they are up. That should keep us moving. Post in this thread if you expect to be gone for an extended period of time
Draft thread is here https://www.bigsoccer.com/threads/sand-league-2021-22-official-draft-thread.2116574/
The two aussies in the middle. Just a heads up, 4th of august my time i likely will be out of service for quite a few hours, so depending on Norms start time, I could delay it quite a bit for first pick. The rest of the week shouldnt be much issue outside of timezone challenges
He is picking nketiah. Norm, are you ok with starting in your morning at say 8 or 9am, that way hopefully we can get to a pick before I need to go to bed (gives about 4-5 hours for the draft to flow? Then hopefully the next pick i can make when i wake up the next morning so most of us will have 2 picks within 24 hours
Any time after midnight once Aug 3 begins .. if you can give us indication of the time we can all be ready to get a fast start
I’m fine with starting at 8am for my pick on the 3rd, I’ll give you all a hint for my pick, his name rhymes with boomerang
Checked the top epl draft pick player list and Auba is listed as #42, yikes. Might have to rethink my first pick, but it will be ready by 8am EST tomorrow morning…
Sorry Mark, meant Tuesday and not tomorrow. Also Auba will be my pick, predicting that Auba and Arsenal will be flying under the radar this season but will wind up a top three striker and in the top four of the table by the end of the season, respectively. The pundits don’t expect them to do anything so they’ll use that to their advantage. So 8am Tuesday EST, Auba will be posted as first pick with no hesitation. And Arsenal will make the top four, take it to the bank everyone. Finally the Gunners will get back to the Champions League
I renamed this thread from organizing to discussion and banter. Remember to keep the draft thread just for picks and keep the discussion/banter in here. A very useful way to use this thread is to let other players know if you are gonna be gone for an extended period of time. We start tomorrow with Norm’s first pick at 8am ET, so be ready as a fast start can make all the difference in getting this done quickly. Good luck everyone!
