I dont know where you guys got the 12 hour time limit from. here's what I wrote regaridng the subject verbatim...
You have 24 Hrs to make your selection, check back daily to ensure this draft moves along smoothly. if you miss your deadline, you dont lose the pick, but you wont get to make it until your next time at the podium which is fair I think.
I am on no power trip, but thought that it was pretty unfair that he jumped the gun on his selection. thats like me saying, Im going on holidays, heres the next 6 pics since I wont have internet access, Ill take Joe Sakic, Adam Foote, Glen Murray, Jason Allison, GS Jiguere and Mario Lemieux. maybe Im exxagerrating, but I thought it was a fair punishment. what does everyone else think, we'll go with majority rules, just let me know, if i was right by doing so or wrong, and i will change the decision if Im out to lunch. but I personally think that its fair.
