BigLewy is on the clock to select his draft position.

[Shabazz]

I can only make F and B.

[Flagrant Fowl]

I cannot do F, at all - zero chance (Monday morning here and I'll be at work in back to back meetings). But any of the others are more or less doable. My preferences would be C, E, D

Yeah it would be 6am Monday for me, but I'm guessing it's a good time for a lot of others. Sounds like you're in Australia, so I'm curious if 2-3 hours earlier would be possible?

[Gladiator]

Actually, if you made it an hour earlier, I could make that work. 1.5 hours even better. I misread as PST not EST so got my maths slightly wrong, sorry. It would still be Monday morning here, but 4pm EST would be 7.30 not 10.30 as I originally thought. I'll be running my kids around to where they need to be at that time, so earlier would be better if that's roughly when works for everyone else.
(And yes, checking in from Australia)

[ShelC]

Any of those times work for me.

[BigLewy]

F, E, and C are best for me, but I'll try to make whatever work.

I'll take the 6th pick.

[Split T]

A, B, C, and D work for me. I will be at work for E and F so wouldn’t be able to do it.

[Split T]

I guess E is 4am for me, so I could technically do that one. F is the only one I can’t do.

I’d rank them B, D, A

[bIGDRAWLS0072]

F B D

[Gladiator]

Is it too late for me to name a second keeper? I’d like to keep Whiteside (6th round) as well as Wood (7th round)
Thanks!

As long as you ask twice.

I have to decline your request. We're over 24 hours past the deadline, so where do I draw the line with others who might want to make a change if I allow yours now? The only change I'll allow with keepers now is if one is injured before we draft.

[Gladiator]

Fair enough although I don’t think it changes anything for anyone. but ultimately it’s your call as commissioner.
I’ve had a fair bit going on with family etc and the deadline slipped my mind, so was hoping for a reprieve. Also in terms of your question, I don’t have any problem with people changing their keepers up until the draft order is finalised

[Flagrant Fowl]

I get it. People are busy and this is fantasy basketball after all.

From my perspective, I'm taking the time to organize communication and help things run smoothly, which included my initial timeline post that granted two full weeks for people to declare their keeper players.

I'm fine with being a little flexible, like I was with letting pickle make his selection the day after the deadline passed, but I have to draw the line somewhere. Like you said, it's my call as commissioner and I'm more comfortable with following the rules and guidelines that were posted.

[pickle]

Appreciate you letting me make my keeper selection past deadline bud.

I'll take the 2nd pick.

I can make F D B, I might make the other times work, but I can't be 100% sure, and we are asked to make 3 choices...

I’m on record as being appreciative of the time you put in to run the league and remain so. I’m commissioner for another league so understand the effort required.
However I am disappointed by this call, which strikes me as more ‘letter of the law’ rather than spirit of it. I don’t want to get into a p*ssing match about it, it’s clearly not the biggest issue but just wanted to say.
Let us know where we land on draft time and I’ll do my best to make it.

I've changed my mind and I'll accommodate your request.

This is the end of the keeper selection process unless one of them is injured.
