PROPOSED RULE CHANGE FOR 2024:

I propose that beginning with the 2024 drafts, we have a 4-hour clock, 10AM-10PM on Saturdays & Sundays, in addition to the 2-hour clock 10AM-10PM Monday thru Friday.

I'd like to open it up for discussion and consideration.

My thoughts are this: It isn't that we are in a hurry to get our drafts completed, necessarily. It is a matter of being respectful of the other 11 managers time. With no clock on the weekend, I think there is a sense of obligation for some managers (like myself) to check in frequently, so that I am not holding up other people, causing them to have to constantly check to see if anyone has made a selection. With a 4-hour clock, it seems reasonable that most managers could glance at their phones every 4 hours to see if they have a message indicating a post has been made to the draft thread.

The other alternative is to have NO PICKS AT ALL over the weekends. I am not a proponent of this option at all. I for one have WAY MORE time during the weekend for Strat than I do during the week.

I have a full-time job, I travel for my work. I have a family, friends, a 94 year old parent who I'm primary care-giver for, and other things in my life, like everyone else. I just feel that if I'm going to commit to BEING IN a league, then I should BE IN IT.

Anyone else have thoughts? Thanks.

I tend to agree with Sean with the exeception of maintaining a 2 hour clock on weekends as well. For some of us weekends are the easier time to draft, and for all the reasons Sean mentioned it can be a bit burdensome on some of us when we stall in a weekend draft. With this league there is a little more flexibility given the early draft start, but I know when main draft leagues start and some of us have 4 or more teams it can be a lot to deal with.

I understand I'm at an extreme on my views. Hell, I wish it was a 15 minute clock and we kicked out a whole draft in one day. But I do think 2 hours on the weekends is more than reasonable, especially given the mulitple volunteers that are always available for proxy purposes.

I agree. Would support a move to timed weekends. If you know you'll be unavailable for a while, you can always send proxies in advance, as I've done this year.

I'm being selfish, but I like to have some consistency in the leagues I commish when possible. The other 3 leagues I commish have no clock on the weekend.
