I think that 8 hours should be the final window shortening. Despite this feeling like an eternity, we've only had to skip 6 times, by 3 people. Granted, Suns technically put my pick in a little to early to skip Kilo, but for every time that's happened, there's been a time when someone has posted within a few minutes of being skipped themselves.

 

My point is, while I think that being skipped is inexcusable, it's only happened a few times, and due to work schedules and college partying (if that's what MSU is really doing ;) ) that anything shorter than 8 hours isn't fair to people who have lives and have made more of themselves than I have.

 

In any case, what makes this more frustrating is that in addition to the 10 hour window, there's an 8 hour immunity from 12-8 everyday, meaning that many of the skips have resulted in over 18 hours between picks, rather than just the 10 hours. What's even more frustrating than that is that people should know where they are in order and should have sent their picks to other people just in case they aren't online when it's their turn.

 

I have throughout the course of this thing received picks from Youker, RSFFL, WhiskeyBreath, Ytrb, Suns, and MSU (and others if you count the mlb draft). So that's compounding the issue and making it worse.

 

 

Just for the record I only send you my picks because I have school and don't want anyone to get mad at having to wait on me.

Oh, and for the record, since Flynnatic was already skipped, we don't need to wait for him to make any further picks. Since it's Divinity's turn, whenever he comes on, he can make his picks regardless of whether or not Flynnatic has made his make up pick.

do injuries hurt the players value? i know my pick i just need clarification

 

 

It depends. I mean a simple hamstring pull or something that'll cause him to miss a few games shouldn't be a problem. But if you're talking about a season ending injury at this point, then you might be in trouble, especially when you factor in injuries that will probably linger into the following season. Kilo can give you an official verdict, but I wouldn't be too concerned.
