We're waiting on one guy who has to get his order in, hopefully he gets it in soon.

The deadline for him to submit the list was clearly "Monday" which in my opinion means 12PM EST. That was 1.5 hours ago! Give him the least desired spot in the draft. The snake draft makes it fair enough for everyone anyways that its not that big a deal where u draft. We need to give everyone else a fair amount of time to get there lists in before work tomorrow since some of us on the west coast wont have time after work since the deadline is around when alot of people get off.
I agree, I work all day tomorrow and likely can't get a coach list in if the order is not up by 9AM Est.

If the last guy to submit his list hasnt sent it in by now, hes not sending it in later on this night, tough luck I guess for him. We need the list out by morning, so whats the difference from now and then since he almost for sure is asleep and not sending in a list?
Problem is a possible GM change......see the league wide email i sent out this morning. Obviously we wont rush the coaches draft, it can realistically be done at any time, and there will be AT LEAST 24 hours between when the order comes out and when our first round occurs.
It is a cash league so you can't really say oh screw you you get what spot is left over. Bryce and Eric have done an awesome job filling up the league, one more day isn't going to hurt.

Some word would be good though, I know we're all waiting anxiously. I really think we need the order out tonight if we're to start drafting tomorrow.

Hey guys, trying to keep you all informed. but We didn't get the response we were hoping for from some GMs. so We have Vancouver and Chicago open. we have some people we're talking to, and trying to convinced them to join, given the short notice on when the league would start.
We will release the list when it is the right time (when every GM has submitted a list), and we will give you guys enough time to get acclamated with the list so that everything goes smoothly.
We have hit a bumpy road, but it's good to see that you guys have faith in us. Just know that you are in good hands, and we will make sure this league gets off on it's BEST foot forward.

You guys are doing a great job, this can't be rushed, I hope we can get started soon but if it takes time we have to accept that. Keep up the good work and everyone should ask people they know to join.
Just to re-itterrate here. Anytime any GM is feeling uncertain of an issue, such as this, and is wondering what is going on with the league. Feel more than free to contact Bryce or I anyway possible. We may not get back to you asap, but we will not leave you guys hanging, and just remember we're doing our best here. We want to have fun and enjoy this league, and that can't happen unless we take care of you guys first.

Could we possibly set a deadline of Thu/Fri to have the teams filled and paid, or just go with 28 teams?
