Oh, BTW mouthbreather, my e-mail is [kj1245@yahoo.com](mailto:kj1245@yahoo.com) (note transposed letters).

Just in case you need to e-mail me on any league issues (executive of the year awards, offers of unconditional surrender from other league members, etc)

cool. (heheh@ unconditional surrender 🙂 )

But, as long as everyone is keeping up, we shouldn’t have to email anyone.

Speaking of which, has anyone heard from Hamlet yet? Should we just put him on computer control until he shows up?

Hamlet timed out, so he’s on automatic computer control. All he can do at this point is predraft. That’s what happens when you time out.

**jk1245** , you may want to have a mod delete that email addy, there are metacrawlers round these parts, and you may soon find yourself the target of spam. Unless, you want a larger penis, want to lose weight fast, need a home mortgage, and need a russian bride.

I think his email is jk, not kj…he should be fine.

Munch, I thought I saw some folks in the last draft that had “computer controlled” next to their name instead of predraft. I was thinking we could do that for him until he shows up, so we dont hafta wait the 12.5 hours for each pick of his.

Crap, forgot about that.

Mods, please delete. Thanks

Actually, my e-mail does begin with kj instead of jk due to a screwup and forgotten password on my account. I just noted that because some people have tried to e-mail me at jk and gotten errors.

Some how you’ll manage. Just like the Viqueens manage without him on 80% of the plays. 😉

You can voluntarily put yourself on CC, at which point you can remove yourself from CC at any point. However, if you time out, you’re automatically put on CC for the remainer of the draft. Each pick of his will now take 1 second.

1 SECOND? I CAN’T WAIT THAT LONG! 😉  
Thanks for heading this up, Munchie. (can I call you that?)

This draft is going to be very interesting. We are gonna get deep picking 224 players. Top two levels of RBs are almost exhausted after only a round and a half. Craziness.

Hey, I hate to be a whining little bitch, but could we all try to predraft as much as possible? It speeds things up by about a factor of 10. With 14 (now 13) drafting, this could last until late next week.

Well, technically, if we each took 11 hours to make our pick, it will end in just over 14 weeks. Which would bring us to just before the preseason.

You just made me cry, NurseCarmen.

In other news, what a crappy day. I work in a lawfirm, and just received the following call (indicative of what the previous 15 calls were like):

Munch: Good afternoon, Smith & Doe.  
Idiot: Can I speak to Detective Anderson?  
Munch: This is a lawfirm. What you need is the police department.  
Idiot: Huh?  
Munch: Detectives work in police departments. Lawyers work in law firms.  
Idiot: Huh?  
Munch: This is a law firm, not a police department.  
Idiot: Oh. So Detective Anderson isn’t there right now?  
Munch: Nope.  
Idiot: Thanks. I’ll call back. \<click\>

**Munch** … I see a brand new thread in the making there!

I’m sure it added to your crappy day, but you just put the first real smile on my face today. 😃

NC - i HAD to pick moss, who else was I supposed to pick? man, i’d much rather be in the middle of this draft, in the 6-8 range than 12th. 20 more good players gone by the time i get to draft again. =P
