I'm not complaining about outcomes or draft order or anything, but there absolutely should have been more time to vote. I was in the thing and I didn't even see the poll until two hours before it closed. I would have preferred more time to vote on disputes, too - I was checking in most days and I was only able to vote on one dispute. I also would have preferred tournament style brackets w/ a wildcard round (like we did in Create-a-Fest when that was still around) than the current free-for-all.
It was the first time doing this, so there was bound to be a learning curve with things like timing, referees, etc. I think cdevaney has done a good job all things considered, but I'd like to see decisions made a bit more democratically next time.
Yikes, I don't want to imagine the shit show that would be us seeding each other.

As far as democracy goes, it got voted out in favor of a benign dictatorship.
Even when we were doing it, everyone was losing their shit that polls were running too long. Originally it was twenty-four hours and then got reduced to four with voting continuing during it and then got eliminated all together. The rules changes went until there was a majority. Some never achieved 50% one way or another.
The inability of folks to reach any sort of majority opinion (some never weighed in on proposed changes) lead to my decision to take command after the drafting completed to gameplan out how thing should go from there. Where there was a clear desire for something different (like extending the UDFA period), the gameplan was adjusted.
I'm sorry that some were disappointed with the process. I tried to keep things going as fairly as possible.
(And I understand that yours was a positive post, I'm just taking the opportunity to address the concerns in case they were shared by others.)
