There's no way we're getting this done by tomorrow's deadline, so if you don't want to be assigned the top ranked Yahoo player available, please sent me a list of acceptable players!

God damnit it you're right. Now I can see why Lightning Flik lost his mind doing this (well sort of). Please pick again Marvin.

King's pick is being freezed. Everyone continue drafting in the appropriate order.

Fine, deadline to keep drafting is now Friday night at midnight.

Look, every one keeps saying "hey let's send a list of players for the final rounds!" and yet no one has done so. If anyone wants to send me a list of players for the final pick or 2, you're more than welcome to. I'll call Saturday at midnight the deadline for getting this done, since rosters have to be set for Monday. Any picks we don't get to I will just assign the highest ranked player according to Yahoo. If you want to prevent this, you can send me a short list of preferred players and I'd be happy to substitute your top choice available instead. Everybody ok with this?

Machetes and gasoline? Who knew people acted like Kane in real life.

Round 19 is up. We're SOOOOOO CLOSE!

Fair enough. 12 hours it is.

Jason Hirsh, Pitcher, Colorado Rockies And, with that, my active drafting is over, as my last 2 rounds are keeper picks. So...if you guys want to PM me lists or something that's fine. Otherwise, we can keep up the 24 hours rule before skipping and then that person can pick whenever he comes back (right now pinjockey is in that situation). We're cutting it close, but I think we'll make it to opening day.

Gone all day, and suddenly I have a mutiny on my hands! I'll allow it, we'll see if we can schedule another chat in the next couple days to try to finish this up...

I'll be out most of the day but I've posted Round 18 in the pinned thread, after Round 17.

Hahahahaa......hahahaahahahahaha. Sorry. ......AHAHAHAHAHAAHHAHAHAHAAHAHA. Ok, I'm just bitter because I picked him last year. Good luck.

Mike MacDougal, Pitcher, Chicago White Sox

Well... Will Scarlett and Cuban Linx did send me a list of players for when they couldn't make the (failed) chat....so....I'm assuming these are still their picks....so I will post them....if there's a problem they can let me know, but I think I can move forward: Will Scarlett: Mike Lowell, 3rd baseman, Boston Red Sox Cuban Linx: Mark DeRosa, bunch of positions, Chicago Cubs

Everybody check the other thread for updates. Stephan Poppick if you're out there, we're waiting for you!

OK, folks, if you want I've created an AIM chat room, you can join. I'm not sure if you can join yourself (its chat1174265771493), but you can PM me your screen name and I can invite you. I'll just sort of be hanging out, listening to Wrestling Observer Live with Dave Meltzer and Bryan Alvarez from 8-10 in the background (www.sportsbyline.com in case you didn't know), so if you're looking for something to listen to while waiting for picks, there you go. Ok, let's see if we can finish this tonight!

well, we can get started at 8 then. The point is just getting everyone on the board at the same time so we can have picks made rapidly. If most people start at 8, we can finish up after 9.

Um...someone want to tell iggy he need to come back and make a pick? Come on people just do a search on the other thread. Anyway, I've gotten 10 people confirmed for this evening, around 9PM ET (2 people suggested this was better than 8) and 2 others who have sent me a list of picks for them. Anyone who hasn't responded please let me know if you can make it, because this kind of needs to be an all or nothing type deal.

Now, now, let him draft Dave Navarro if he wishes.

He's scamming on your sleepers, don't do it! Hah! Actually, if it makes anybody feel better, out of my next 5 picks, 3 are already chosen as keeper (Delmon Young, Josh Johnson and Nick Markakis), so I'm only making 2 more picks and I know exactly at least what kind of players I want for those spots, so there's very little influencing left to be done for me!

Is there another time that would work better? Or, how about this, would you mind compiling a list of say 8-12 players that you'd like to fill out your team, and sending them to me, and I can use that list to make your picks?

PMs have been sent to everyone let me know if you didn't get one.

20 rounds. Do you guys wants to make a time to meet on the board tomorrow evening let's say?

Come on, folks, I can't believe a STAFF ACE! is still available this late in the draft... Gil Meche, ACE PITCHER, Kansas City Royals At least he strikes people out.

Round 15 has been posted, after Round 14.
