PM'd Nordy with number 6.

So far, looks like everybody has done his/her fair share of research

Still alot of solid teams left, this is wicked fun

Has anyone been able to find a list of the Bowman Buybacks? I think there are supposedly 15 cards that Bowman Bought back and had signed but I can't find a checklist...on ebay and the Topps website, and from some random breaks on youtube, the only ones I've seen have been Ryan Howard, Tom Glavine, AROD, and Jeremy Jeffress (Brewers Prospect caught smoking dope twice already). Anybody have any info on the rest of the players?

on the checklist about 8 say TBD not sure

Justin Morneau has a card, too... although I think they only fall one per 8-box case (and we have a 4-box case).

A-Rod has a couple of buybacks - one from his Seattle days and one from '06 Heritage, in a Yanks uni.

with my luck we will pull 6 of them

Ghey. I offered to pay the spot until Nordy paid up. I mean if he had logged on and didn't pay that would be one thing

He has not logged on since 2:40PM yesterday and it's not like this break is happening anytime before Friday.


But it's too late now as it would be wrong to take away from army as he stepped up and paid.

Why are we selling that spot? If the break isn't happening until friday and no other dates were mentioned, how can we penalize someone, especially if it's someone who has a good reputation in group breaks for paying?

[pskell02]

I'm going to have to step in here. While there is really no rule set for how long people get to pay, getting to his draft slot and passing it along because he has not logged on is completely unfair. Hell, the draft should have never started until all payments were received. Also, unless I missed something, jlzinck had spoken for the slot first, so he should have been given first opportunity for the slot, not first to pay.

So all that being said, with the break not happening until Friday, I would recommend sending army the $$ back and allowing more time for nordie to log in/make payment. Then it should be offered to the first person to speak up about the slot.

I knew it. Do you remember what I said yesterday, do not do draft until everyone pays.

I will have to say its YOUR FAULT pskell02. You allowed it to happen and you did a draft.

if you would say no, we would not have problem that we are having right now with Nordie.

Am I out of line here?

Slightly, considering I didn't do the draft list or say anything about go ahead and start the draft. I'm sure Robert gave the go ahead assuming that nordie would be given adequate time to pay. And then giving the slot to the wrong person (nothing against army here). In the end, it falls on the breaker for caving to your constant badgering to get things moving, not taking into account personal lives and people being drawn away from the board for a day or 2, and finally not following the proper backout order.

Your new here, so I have been giving you time to get acclimated to how things work here. Seems you are just too damn impatient here (as well as jumping the gun on paying for my break). So as I said before, relax and let things happen. I will take care of the issues that arise.

[boxbreaker88]

well i am leaving it up to pskell to determine what is best here i guess it would be fairer to give him more time

Way out of line, he had nothing to do with any of the current issues, of which there are many, in this break. Some of you guys need to learn a little bit of patience and grow up a little. The behavior and posts of some in this group break appear to come from childish teenagers. I have been in my fair share of draft group breaks (which have all run smoothly) and have never seen anything quite like this. Settle down, relax, draft your team when it is your turn, and PM the next guy in line, it isn't that difficult people.

[boxbreaker88]

alright we will give nodie time to pay

[pskell02]

Thank you. If he doesn't pay by mid-day/end of work tomorrow, I would say you would be safe to pass the slot along. And if he doesn't, pass it along to the next guy. Simple.

[S.U.I.Z.I.D.]

Pskell02: PM Sent.

[boxbreaker88]

alright armyatc22 i am refunding you now

Sorry, I thought he did a draft, it was another guy. My mistake, I'm sorry.

[armyatc22]

Go back to post 79 I surelly called his spot 20 posts before jlzinck posted that he wanted the spot at post 99 so there is no doubt the spot in question will be mine if he doesnt pay....just let me know if he doesnt and Ill RE-send the money and make the same pick again...lol

Sorry about that army. Looks like I did miss your first post there about the slot. You did claim first dibs on the slot, so pending payment by nordie, it would fall to you. I apologize for missing that the first time around.
