Is there some other issue that prevents this?

I don't really want to continue to talk about what happened, but since you asked. As the 2nd alliance, after the 6th (or so) alliance made their 2nd selection, we texted our representative (who also had a list) 5 teams in order. The alliance captain wanted a team that wasn't on that list of 5, so our representive texted back "what about XXXXX". I believe we were in the process of texting back when it was our alliance's turn to pick. So, long story short, we were working on the pick before it was our turn, but it was just one of those tough situations that take time. If anyone has any suggestions on how we could have been more efficient, I'm interested in hearing them.
