My bad...UMPIRE should be in CAPS. Please try again so we can fill this thing up!

I've jumped into your mock draft. CYA then.

How many rounds in this mock draft and how long do you expect it to last?

Dominic · Post by **Dominic** » Fri Feb 06, 2004 6:18 am

The draft will be 23 rounds (that's the max) -

15 teams drafting -

Therefore, if everyone abides by the "1 minute between picks" rule.... it should take roughly 345 minutes. Considering that everyone will be NFBC guys, hopefully we can trim that down to 30-45 seconds per pick, and get it done in no more than 3 or 4 hours. Should be fun.

I'd like to get in. I can't seem to get anywhere. How do I register. I don't have a user name or password but it recognizes my e-mail address. I'm confused someone said they e-mailed [email protected] Could someone give me the exact e-mail address or is there an easier way. Thanks.

Dominic:Thanks, I'm in. You were very helpful.

I played in a 5x5, 10 player, 21 round draft at mockdraftcentral. in round 13 the box requiring me to choose the player's position did not appear. Refreshing it did not change it's absense. A player was selected for me. I got back on using a link that they e-mailed me earlier. My 14th round went OK. on the 15th round the message telling me that it's my turn. (and underneath the necessary line draft a player now) did not appear. the 15th through 21st round were drafted for me. There were tabs Your Next Pick, and Current Pick I clicked both of these with no result. Based on some weird looking picks, I assume that this happened to others also. I couldn't be more displeased. I hope tommorow's draft isn't a complete waste of time. Be advised.

But hey, On the master draft page that lists everyone's picks in order, The refresher button that refreshes the screen every 60 seconds works just fine. (although there's no option to turn it off, of course) Some massive work needs to be done to make that site marketable.

TBILL...thanks for the heads up. If I encounter any such problems t-night I'll post it back here on this thread. Hopefully, all goes well later. Looking forward to the first sneak peek.

I've already done three 15-team, 23-man drafts at that site and haven't had a single problem with any of them, so that might have been a transitory problem. Hope so.

Thanks for a fun, organized draft everyone.

Thanks are also in order to Mockdraftcentral.com

for putting on a good show. Everything ran perfectly. Very impressive.

Despite what he may think, the Rhinos team is worthless and weak. A bunch of pansies.

I echo these sentiments. The draft went great and I think it was very helpful for those who participated.

This draft went perfectly well for me, also. It was a great releif after the last one. It was great fun and quite informative. I enjoyed it immensely.
