The unique draft that started last night where owners have 8 hours to sleep at night but then up to 4 hours per pick during the day started at 5 pm ET last night and is already in the 5th round this morning. I have a feeling this one is going to be a big hit!! Those guys have created their own social media chat room and are picking players on a timely basis. I think they're onto something there. :D

Great job Dan once again and have fun guys.

This is the way they all should be. FYI: Early returns have Gekko winning this one in a landslide...or so he says. :lol:

Awesome draft.
Nobody takes more than an hour. If leaving, a message always on the Boards.
Earliest bedtime reported is the drafter we try to get through (or to)
Mike is always there for a text after a few minutes.
The Message Board is humming with Smack talk...good picks...and bad stories...
That remids me....Greg, we need a larger character count for our messages in these drafts.
My posts don't fit in these confines! :D
On my tombstone-
Wait! I never had the perfect draft!

I hope to do 2 two more slow drafts this year. I will only do them under this format. It will be impossible to go back. Hopefully these are available all the way through the "Draft Champions" season.

Dan Kenyon's group is cruising through their Draft Champions League and now there's interest in similar leagues that speed up the process a bit. We now have 7 owners signed up for a league that offers 4 hours per pick rather than 8 hours per pick. Let's keep the interest rolling for this one and get drafting in 7+ days. DON'T SIGN UP ONLINE FOR THIS LEAGUE. Instead, just email me at [email protected] or post your intentions on this thread. I'll get everyone signed up after the league is full and you can set your KDS preferences on your league pages then. But we won't do anything until we get to 15 owners. Thanks all.

Here's the current signup list:

NFBC Faster Draft Champions League
15 teams, 50 rounds, 4 hours per pick
Starts After Jan. 15th once we get 15 teams
1. Michael Mager
2. Martin Lowy
3. Mark Srebro
4. Sam Botnick
5. Lee Jupinka
6. Bryan Vogel
