I have no idea, but it may be that they just forgot to allow it to enter more than 50 hours remaining on the clock. That would be very SOM-like. If the clock does go on at 3AM Monday, I will nullify all the picks that happen before 9 AM unless they appear to be from a queue.

Note to all

The fact that the clock is off on weekends does not prevent you from drafting a player when it's your turn. Or putting up a proxy list.

I have contacted SOM support regarding the apparent restart time for the draft clock at 3 AM Monday. If I have not received positive news from them I will pause the draft when I go to bed Sunday night (usually around midnight).

I will then restart the draft shortly before 9 AM. I believe that, during the dead time, you will still be able to work normally on your queues. But since this is SOM, I can't be certain.

Two weekdays and a Saturday in the books, and we are well into the 5th round. At this pace, we will likely finish up around Friday, June 28th.

I unpaused the draft at about 6:12 this morning, but the clock started counting down from 3 hours, so I paused it again.

I intend to communicate with SOM on this issue. I will let you all know what they say.

But we have 129 picks in the books in two full days and two weekend days. That's over 20% done. Hopefully, we willbe at around pick 400 by this time next week. (Slim pickings there, by golly!)
