Are we going to get our draft slots tonight as stated in the KDS 2nd weekend deadline post? Looking for Primetime slots. Thanks

Tom got stuck on the way back from New York to Las Vegas. I think his plane had mechanical issues in Milwaukee. He's arriving here soon and if he can't get to these tonight he will in the morning. Sorry, but we didn't see the delay coming here. Tomorrow is a likely possibility now. Sorry, but hopefully you can understand what happened here.

While travel delays happen and are understandable, it does seem unveiling of draft slots seems a little too
Tom-Kessenich-dependent if ya ask me. Thought KDS was "automated."

Running KDS is automated. Setting up the live event leagues is not automated at this time. I do all that manually and my apologies for the delay last night. I didn't anticipate engine failure on my plane leaving me stuck in Milwaukee for four hours. Trust me, nobody wanted to get all that done as scheduled more than I did.

Well, the Saturday Prime OL can be completed correct? It isn't live; it was filled at 12 and now 15, are we waiting for it to get to 24? Just curious

The March 29 7 pm Primetime Online? That was done on Sunday.

I'am waiting for the March 30th Prime at 1 EST

We need to finalize the leagues at that time. As soon as we do the draft order will be set.

OK, again, like I said, for the longest time there were only 12 teams, a full league for the 1p est online; now there are 15; does finalizing mean waiting for 9 more entries? The KDS deadline post stated these leagues would be posted Monday night; Greg said, he apologized because your plane was delayed and would be done in the morning. Now, the answer is, we need to finalize the leagues. So, which answer is it? I know the answer and I believe it's waiting to fill the league, which equates to finalizing the league. Please don't say one thing and do another.

Maybe you don't know the answer, Lunatic. There are also 9 people signed up for a live Primetime in Vegas the same morning. 15+9 = 24. Perhaps what Tom means when he says "finalize leagues" is figuring out how to combine the two, which may require live drafters to draft online, or online drafters to call in to a live draft.

That is correct.

Lunatic, I understand you want your draft order and believe me we're doing everything we can to get all these remaining leagues finalized. But there are some pieces to the puzzle we have to solve first before that can be done. Thank you for your patience as we work to resolve everything.

My guy Luny is simply going thru draft withdrawal. ELL realizes the draft season is coming to an
End and he is simply living for that final draft order. Luny needs a hug!


Tom, I'm sure this has you down. You can make it up to Big Jim by taking his partner out for
An expensive steak this weekend in Vegas!


See Big Jimmy, problem solved!
