Grimmas

Yeah, we need a manager list to add to the roster list for draft purposes. We could easily set up some kind of bidding process for freelancers. Like you get 8 points a month and you bid on dates or something. Say I want Andre for a big show I put all my points for that day, while somebody might try to split their points over multiple days in hopes they are not outbid?

Samoa Joe vs Chris Hero (Smash June 6) This match was all about finding new ways to kick, punch or elbow the other guy in the head. There was neat counter after neat counter into a huge variation of strikes that I have never seen before. Did I mention stiff? Think Finlay-Regal with more strikes and less submissions. One of my favourite spots in years takes place, but I don't want to ruin it. Think Bret Hart though with a modern twist. Easy 4 1/4 stars if not more, loved it! Plus it was for charity.

Although Tom Magee may have more power, I still give this to Arn. Just a better variety of opponents and good matches. How does Magee even come close to matching The Enforcer?

Start Date: July 1, 1983 (July 1, 2015) We follow the 1983 calendar. Picking a promotion: 1) Everybody puts in a top 3 list and I try to make it fair, if there is any conflict there will be a discussion between the parties in conflict. 2) You get the owner, announcers and referees from that promotion. 3) You get to take one talent from that original roster onto yours. Whether a manager or wrestler. If you want a tag team, then you forfeit your first round pick. Picking your Talent: 1) There will be a snaked draft from the remaining available talent. 2) It will be done on the board. 3) Once a pick is made, the person on the clock has 10 hours to pick. if they miss their 10 hours then the next person can pick and the person who missed their pick can insert their pick ASAP (like the NFL draft, put 10 hours instead of 6 minutes) 4) If you pick a tag team you forfeit your next pick. Although, feel free to pick only one member of a tag team. 5) You can pick any available talent (ie everyone on the list, minus the freelancers). 6) Draft goes until all talent is picked or people drop out (Maybe a max roster of 30) The Talent and Booking: 1) Booking a weekly TV show is a must and any other house shows or major events you want are bonus. 2) The NWA Champion starts as Harley Race and he will remain Champion until every player who is a part of the NWA votes to change him. 3) Every player apart of the NWA can work together to determine dates on the NWA Champion. 4) Japan tours will be the same as what actually happened, so if that wrestler is on your roster you just can't use them while they are on tour. 5) NWA members can work together for trades and sharing talent, if wanted. 6) Any other trades can happen, but must be agreed upon by both players. Freelancers: Every month one promotion gets to be in control of the freelancers. That person has free reign to use that talent and decide their bookings, as well as command if they win or lose. If you want to book a freelancers on your show, talk to the promoter that is control of freelancers for that month. 6-Month Updates: 1) At the end of 6 months any unactive promotions or rosters are up for grabs. 2) There will be a re-distribution draft where each player can protect 10 guys and everybody else is entered into a new draft. 3) Players can switch promotions at this point, if wanted. 4) Optional: Each roster has one wrestler taken off of it through a random drawing. 5) Order of draft is by vote on best promotions by fans. Injuries: 1) Every month there is a random wrestler injured a random amount of time (ie promotions are numbered and a random number generator pick the promotion, then talent is numbered and a random number generator determines the wrestler, then a dice is rolled to determine how many months they are injured for). Debuting Wrestlers: 1) Every few months when they are a rash of debuting wrestlers a new draft will come about to determine who gets who. Also, if promotions not apart of the NWA wants to share champions they can. Titles, how shows are booked, etc... are all determined by player.

At zoo will make rules post later, but I laid everything out a few pages back

Offer up Ted for Parv's first pick in the draft

Hemingway wants to save Race.

Shit there is guys available in the draft now that might make me change my game plan.

There seems to be a list of about 4 freelancers that are up for debate on what we are going to do with them. The rest are available. The true freelancers (Bruiser Brody, Mil Mascaras, etc..) I think should be in the original draft, but are only available for the first month. After that the freelancers are up for a draft again? Something along those lines.

The first post has the updated rosters: Everybody who hasn't find your promotion on that list and save one guy. http://prowrestlingonly.com/index.php?/topic/31142-1983-tentative-rosters/

I PM'd Punk and asked to check out the thread and get involved. Why jump to conclusions before that? Either way game starts July 1st and drafting can start this week (Tuesday, maybe?)

1. Grimmas - Toronto 2. Kris Zellner - GCW 3. Beast 4. Cross Face Chicken Wing 5. JerryvonKramer 6. Jesse Ewiak 7. DylanWaco 8. goc 9. El Boricua 10. dedhemingway 11. Boon 12. dkookypunk43 13. dawho5 14. TravJ1979 15. Flyin Brian 16. Peachchaos 17. RockinCrypt Beast?

Let's be fair and draft.

Ok, let's re-draft. I pick Toronto. Kris is next. 1. Grimmas - Toronto 2. Kris Zellner 3. Beast 4. Cross Face Chicken Wing 5. JerryvonKramer 6. Jesse Ewiak 7. DylanWaco 8. goc 9. El Boricua 10. dedhemingway 11. Boon 12. dkookypunk43 13. dawho5 14. TravJ1979 15. Flyin Brian 16. Peachchaos 17. RockinCrypt

Solely by top picks and order of entry: 1. Grimmas - Toronto 2. Kris Zellner - GCW 3. Beast - JCP 4. Cross Face Chicken Wing - AWA 5. JerryvonKramer - WWF 6. Jesse Ewiak - WCCW 7.

Flyin Brian - ICW 16. Peachchaos - Stampede 17. RockinCrypt - WWA Is that better? Although this drops Punk from his top 3 choices, he did give three more which would effect everybody else if we consider them. 12. dkookypunk43 - Memphis (CWA 13. dawho5 - Mid-South 14. TravJ1979 - ???? 15. Flyin Brian - ICW 16. Peachchaos - Stampede 17. RockinCrypt - WWA

Everyone made a top 3 or 4 and the only way to get it so everybody had one of those picks was that change or easiest. Sorry. EDIT: Completely open to an alternative. Except for the fact the the top 3 dedhemingway posted here doesn't even include Southwest which I put as my #1. Whatever, I have my TEW game to play. He changed his list, because all of his top 3 were picked. We want to include you, it's just impossible to have everybody have there top 1 or 2 picks. Did you want Toronto with the JCP pick to save? I can switch to Montreal.

By the way I keep Greg "The Hammer" Valentine! It worked when I beat Parv once, it will work again!

For sure. I was trying to keep the top pick for as many as possible, but still give everybody one of their top 3 picks. I have Toronto which nobody wants, so I can not help. If anybody wants to make some switches or options, shoot it here. Maybe message goc privately for a pitch.

Only if you beat me to it

Yuck!

Few questions. Did we decide Toronto can pick from the JCP guys? Also, can I pick one member of the tag team or do I have to take the whole team? I don't want to pass up on my first overall pick for Jay Youngblood? So, depending on the answer of the question I am either taking Leo Burke, Greg Valentine or Ricky Steamboat.

Everybody make your save and we can draft this week

That six month update draft, is the idea. One question for you Kris is who should be the freelancers that are undraftable?

Which means it is probably the most accurate out there.
