Come in lads get into a habit of leaving picks if you know you will be delayed. Otherwise I will half the pick time to 4 hours, this is going at a snails pace.

Reduce the time..We barely get thru 1 round of picks in 2 days
 
This could've been avoided if managers had shared their picks' don't see this difficult.

Bingo.

Will give it another day if it doesn't pick up I'll reduce it to 6hrs.

4hrs is too less.. perhaps it needs to be cut down to 6

This could've been avoided if managers had shared their picks' don't see this difficult.
I suggested this before the start of the draft - have every team have two managers mandatory. So reduce the number of picks to say 10-12 instead of 16. Preferably one manager located in Europe/US and one in Asia that way both time zones are covered.

@harshad
 
That was my though as well,so you looking at WK?
Yeah it was either Stewart (who I picked) or a bunch of rather underwhelming keepers whose numbers are inflated by not outs against crap teams IMO.

Stewart is good pick ,useful batsmen and solid WK.
 
@Mani Yeah. I'm looking at a lot of teams and thinking great player - not as good in the criteria so I must be doing something wrong. I'll pick on your Dhoni pick -> If it was World Cup only, he would be awesome. But for the entire criteria he averages 35, so I was confused on the R1, but maybe I'm missing something?

I was looking at the finisher and WK,Dhoni matches it perfectly plus he was leader,I had opportunity to pick Gilly but Dhoni was better suited to my requirement.Your pick of Alec is fantastic at this stage considering multiple roles he would offer you.
