Yeah it's kind of annoying waiting ages for Aar to pick and then he chooses someone who's already been selected! Hopefully he logs back on soon and makes a new selection.

Id understand more if the draft list wasn't updated, but I spend 30 minutes last night after a very long day to make sure I updated for you guys. Ugh.

Can a man not sleep during this draft? Sonics select Jason Terry I have to sleep too, but I sent a draft list so that I wouldn't keep everyone waiting while I sleep due to the time difference. I'm not saying you're not allowed to sleep. It's just kind of frustrating for GMs like myself who are in a different time zone and the boards are pretty dead when we're awake, so it was frustrating that after waiting hours for some action, we get to see a player selected who was chosen 32 picks earlier.

You guys are lucky that I have to work today, otherwise this pick would have been made two hours from now.
I didn't leave work until 2:45 AM last night and was literally working until that time.
That said, I'm sorry that I delayed things, but I was on the boards yesterday from 12 PM until 1 AM waiting to pick.

Btw, looking at the posts in this thread, it looks like you logged off last night just before you were due to pick, so I don't know why you couldn't just send a list. Instead, we waited ten hours for you to log back in. So yes, some of us were "waiting ages".

There's a ton of people that have held up the draft so I don't see why people would attack just aar.

There's a ton of people that have held up the draft so I don't see why people would attack just aar. I think it's because people had waited all night on him, which is understandable. But then he picked a player who had been picked a round earlier. Plus, like Will said, I guess Aar was online and his pick was just one away and he didn't send a list to anyone. So it's understandable why some people were on his case.

I got no list from Aar and i understand people want to make their own selection but if you can't send a list 3 picks away something is wrong.

I understand that but it was a mistake. Shit happens. It only took another 20 mins for him to come back and select someone else. I would find it more annoying if he was around and gave some BS like he was waiting "for a trade".
