Also draft is done tomorrow night around this time regardless of progress. Please send lists if you want to still pick.
I hate upsetting anyone that enjoys to make 2nd and 3rd round picks, so I try to give everyone some time if they care enough. But it ends up taking too long in the end each time. I never liked the time blocks Chris does in HOFFBL because it's too hard to follow without a draft mod constantly being available to make auto picks.
Idk if anyone has suggestions, I'm all ears. Are my drafts here too slow? Do a lot of you truly enjoy making 2nd and 3rd round picks, or only if the convenience is there?

I like making picks. I'd do 4th and 5th round picks live if I could.
I don't remember how it works in the game, but isn't there an option to have the draft in season? We could still start the draft in the offseason and just carry it through until whenever it hits in the game. So we'd give ourselves weeks to do the draft instead of days?

I can't see the draft guys That's because Break accidentally updated the LBB site with the XIB site. He said it will get fixed when he gets home.

Yeah in the game itself, there is an in-season option, but idk I never liked those live drafts that happened in the old LBB at like June in-season.

Well I'm saying we change it to June and do the draft the same way (in the offseason). Give people a fair amount of time to make their picks, and we should be done way before June. Maybe even start FA while you're working on the draft pool. Even if we did pick 1.1 on opening day, we'd have 8 sims to get through with the draft and go as far as we want.
Then on June 1, we'd enter the results and move on.

I’m not sure how into the concept I’d be if some draftees are eligible to be playing in minors before others but I could talk to Chris the hoffbl commish and see his opinions. We’ve gotten through over 30 drafts this way so maybe I’m just overthinking.
