Lists and points updated.

[Sharkerbob]

For some reason I am awake right now, even though I really shouldn't be.

Also, my computer refused to start for several minutes, which is never a good sign.


Super Cream (Futurama) 5 - (I assume this is referring to the Dr. FlimFlam's Miracle Cream)
Yoma Ring (Devil Hunter Yohko) 5

Are we getting close to the point where we shrink the 8 hour deadline to something smaller, Mandy? It's been a couple of days and we're less than halfway through and it's kinda getting to the point where making sure I'm available for 12+ waking hours at a time (which I endeavor to do so I'm not responsible for slowing things down) is becoming a bit of a liberty.

[KJ Stewart]

And out of interest, Mandy, when do you anticipate starting this?

We're probably going to have the Christmas/New Year issue, so what's happening re: that?

[Dalak]

Damn, looks like I missed the 6 on Dumbledore, even though Randy caught it in her math so thanks.

I think I'll repost the draft list so everyone knows when they should post, regardless of what time allotment they be given.

Noted, I guess I've been watching too much Trailer Park Boys.

I was thinking along the same lines and since I don't want to keep this going until Friday.

Turns are now 3 hours long, effective immediately.

If you miss a turn, in your next turn you can pick four things.

If you know that you won't be around when your turn comes up, PM me your planned purchases and I'll post them for you. I'll try to check this at least once every three hours.

I want to start before November ends, if circumstances allow.

In regards to the Christmas issue, I want to get an idea of how much effort this tournament is going to require from the players. It is intended to be lighter in terms of debating and research than Rumblers League, so if I get it right it might be feasible to keep going during the holidays.

If it isn't, for any of a number of reasons that may arise, we can put a hiatus. In any case, the earlier we are done with drafting and such, the better.

Darwin- 5 points
Prince of Orphans -5 points

All fine by me, thanks.

I will do my best to be prompt, but I work in a gym not an office so I'm not in front of a computer all day. If I do miss a turn though I'll grin and bear it without complaint, I've got most of my top picks now anyways so a little unplanned randomness is not the end of the world.

Sorry about the inconvenience and let this be my apology to all affected.

In any case, turn is moonknight11's now. He has a little less than an hour and a half.

No worries, I don't expect things to run around my life. I'm sure I'll enjoy it regardless of my setup.
