09 Rules: Draft Clock

Should our draft clock be changed?

Stop draft at the end of each round (1 round per day only - 7 days total)
14
37%
1st Round: 20 min (instead of 30), Rounds 2-7: 15 min
6
16%
All picks 15 minutes
1
3%
Like NFL: 1st-10m, 2nd-7min, 3rd-7th: 5 min (quick draft 2 days only)
7
18%
Keep as is with 1st-30m and 2-7-15m, keep going at end of round into next
10
26%
 
Total votes: 38

If we are setting aside a day per round, could we say, no matter what, pick 17 will occur between 2:10 and 2:30 no matter what. and time slot each pick that way people could plan around their picks. that might solve some scheduling problems if it is possible. just an idea.
I would second this notion - especially since it won't be possible to do the majority over just a couple of days.

I also think this is the only way to go. Early picks should be allowed, but no matter what, a team has until 2:30 to make the pick.
