How would you guys feel about calling it after this round? It would be an even number of rounds.

Another suggestion: letting people who missed picks draw from what's left after we're done. Just to make it more competitive. Thoughts?

Would have been my next pick if he was still there.

Hope everyone had fun! Such high stakes.

[Dukefrukem]

Heh. We need to start the draft earlier next year.

[Lazlo]

Heh. We need to start the draft earlier next year.

Oh for sure. Probably not right when nominees come out so the narratives and odds get a chance to advance a little, but definitely around two weeks ahead of the ceremony.
