And the paper is handed in. Shiratori trades down to the 7th pick in this round to get the 2nd pick next round. Zelfore trades up for the 2nd pick now and the 7th pick next one. @Zelfore you’re up ---

I know this pick will definitely be hitting some of my opponent’s teams, which personally makes it even more desirable to mine. I’m going with the purple-spawning arachnid, **Giant Spider**! 🕷 @actreal, nice build so far, you’re up! ---

Figured there was no way I’d get Giant Spider. Still a bummer though! ---

2 hour limit? That’s a bit extreme given time differences around the world. Needs to be at least 12 or so to account for sleeping/work schedules. ---

> [@Studs](#): > > 2 hour limit? That’s a bit extreme given time differences around the world. Needs to be at least 12 or so to account for sleeping/work schedules. The idea is that it will be more of a schedule. Players will have advanced warning when the draft will start and have the opportunity to submit Draft Lists. An example would be (using our Draft); Draft starts at 12:00 (GMT) Studs has until 14:00 Shiratori has until 16:00 actreal has until 18:00 And so on and so on. Studs ---

You could have had it… then I also wouldn’t be sweating your next round pick _sigh_ ---

While the slime has emerged from the pentagram, Actreal has been busy with a welder and a large cage labeled “From Zaejin”… Oho, it’s a **Goblin Rocket!** Edit: Thanks to @Zelfore for adding in the next turn shout-out I missed. Posting to forums from my phone is not something I usually do. ---

I’d love to know how many people you 🔩'd over with that pick. @PowerPlay, the floor is yours. ---

“I have experimented with what I want to be my drafted team, and have determined it has a large amount of viability. Of course, you two-legged players have good choices here as well, but…” With a cute squeak, Power then makes an ^-^ expression while holding the Herdmaster card in his muzzle. ---
