As of late the draft has been lagging, by my estimates if continued at current pace we'll be cutting it close to Opening Day assuming no setbacks. I rather not have us so close and give everyone time to prepare rosters, get things up to date, do some trades, etc.
Hence I propose we cut down on the clock from 12 hours to 6 hours. Please cast a vote, if you oppose provide reasoning. Majority vote rules. Would like to begin ASAP, if a majority is reached, the new clock will officially begin at 8 A.M. E.T. the following day.

I would even suggest 4 hours on the clock - at this point in the draft - getting skipped and picking when we can is not really going to hurt our teams. 4 MLB players left and even though I will prolly finish out the minor draft, some guys are already one or two players from finishing thiers and that draft should then speed up anyway.
To rephrase that, I have 4 players on my minor team that will most likely be on the major team before the year is out. Therefore, I am only drafting temp players to fill the needs until I bring up the minor player.

this is just dragging as we are currently set up, 4 or 6 hour limits are fine

Yeah, however at this stage in the draft most picks carry little value so you won't be missing much, but if it is a concern send me picks ahead of time.

also, note that it has almost been 24 hours since the last pick made prior to your post - so nobody seems to really be in a hurry to get thier picks in. 3 guys should have been skipped

Well I'm out of minor league picks anyway. We only have 2 rounds of the ML draft.
