Overnight Pause Now Changed To 1 am to 8 am ET

[Greg Ambrosius]

Just a heads up that starting tonight we are going to shorten the Pause at night by 1 hour. The Pause will now be:

1 am to 8 am ET

It had been 1 am to 9 am ET. This still gives everyone in a 4-Hour league plenty of time to make a pick and even in a 2-Hour league there is still a max of 9 hours (not that we want anyone to take the full time). As we get deeper into March we will look at shortening the Pause to 6 hours and the plan for football is to have the Pause from 2 am ET to 8 am ET.

With the Multi-Round Ques and different Ques available for every round it gives us comfort in shortening the Pause at night. Please plan accordingly and let's keep these drafts rolling.

One final note: All Draft Champions leagues that start on March 1st or later will have their clocks shortened by 1 hour after Round 30. So a 4 hour DC that starts March 2nd will have the clocks shortened to 3 hours for Rounds 31-50. In the 2 hour drafts we will consider shortening those to 1 hour for Rounds 31-50 depending on the speed of those drafts. We will manually do this and keep an eye on each one. Hope that helps.

Hope this helps. Thanks and continued good luck.
