64th team in a PD- wasn't allowed to draft?

Entered as team 64, made a cup of coffee, came back and the tournament was already in play now mode and brought me to the roster screen which was empty. WTF?

The last team must draft immediately because the clock starts ticking immediately. They are not going to hold up the tournament for you to make a cup of coffee. I think there are issues with being last or close to last as far as not getting the full 20 minutes even if you do start drafting immediately.

I was literally away for not even 2 minutes. I get starting the 20 minute clock to not hold things up, but my coffee maker is literally 3 feet from where my laptop was.

I don't know then. But, I just deliberately entered as the last player of a draft just to see what would happen and I got the button to draft immediately. I assume it would still be there if I waited a few minutes, but your experience suggests that button disappears pretty quickly.
