dkookypunk43 Posted June 13, 2015 Report Posted June 13, 2015 I was thinking more of these two are good looking babyfaces. Why have one when you can get 2. I can book them both in tags and in singles. Quote
JerryvonKramer Posted June 13, 2015 Report Posted June 13, 2015 What happened with the Golden picks? Quote
Beast Posted June 13, 2015 Report Posted June 13, 2015 I assume it stands. They figured out that Fuller was wrestling shortly after July 1983. He's Southeastern anyway, let him take both. Quote
Grimmas Posted June 13, 2015 Report Posted June 13, 2015 I was thinking more of these two are good looking babyfaces. Why have one when you can get 2. I can book them both in tags and in singles. Its 's a great pick!!! So jealous. Quote
goc Posted June 13, 2015 Report Posted June 13, 2015 What happened with the Golden picks? They were a team just Robert was out injured at the time so it was a fair pick. I am sure that Boon would work out some type of Andre for Jimmy Golden deal as I know you had him quite high on your board. Quote
JerryvonKramer Posted June 13, 2015 Report Posted June 13, 2015 On another note, this last snake round has been fucking brutal for me. I've had to endure THIRTY-THREE picks between mine. Quote
El Boricua Posted June 13, 2015 Report Posted June 13, 2015 A blistering pace today! Hopefully it continues before our UK players turn in due to the time difference. Quote
Matt D Posted June 13, 2015 Report Posted June 13, 2015 My keen advice has been shut out completely due to a pick that was made from a guy I don't even know. I understand the notion though, but I'm feeling like Fall 96 Sting here. I'm being confused for Jeff Farmer. Quote

dawho5 Posted June 13, 2015 Report Posted June 13, 2015 I'm feeling your pain Parv. I've been either really low or really high in every round so it's been a long time in between. Just means more time to plot things out. The double pick at the end of a round is nice though. Quote
Dylan Waco Posted June 13, 2015 Report Posted June 13, 2015 There is a disturbingly large amount of people on my depth chart still left despite a really long time between picks. I am trying to keep Portland somewhat within the realm of what was actually feasible in 83 in terms of "star" power, plus there is a type of guy who I think is a perfect fit for Portland, the best example of which is probably Embry. If I can get six of the names currently on my depth chart I will be pretty happy. Quote
Grimmas Posted June 13, 2015 Report Posted June 13, 2015 There has been some really smart drafting, based on your promotion here. I like it. Â I have the perfect guy for me, but my pick isn't for a while. Quote
JerryvonKramer Posted June 13, 2015 Report Posted June 13, 2015 Quite a few of the guys I had earmarked have started to go now. Adonis just the latest one. My upper midcard is thinning with every pick. Quote

JerryvonKramer Posted June 13, 2015 Report Posted June 13, 2015 Has anyone else had to sit through a thirty three pick gap, I'll be picking SD Jones at the way things are going, Quote
Grimmas Posted June 13, 2015 Report Posted June 13, 2015 Has anyone else had to sit through a thirty three pick gap, I'll be picking SD Jones at the way things are going, I have one in a few rounds, and a 28 gap earlier. This draft is not kind to me. Quote
El Boricua Posted June 13, 2015 Report Posted June 13, 2015 I have a 34 (well, 32 now due to forfeited picks) pick wait coming up. Quote
dawho5 Posted June 13, 2015 Report Posted June 13, 2015 My second round pick was over thirty removed from my 4th, which was two picks behind my forfeited third round pick. Honestly I think if you're going to draft a tag team that's the way to go. Take it on a round where you're picking high and you are close to dead last the next round. You're maybe sacrificing two or three picks in between where you would have picked and where you did for two guys you want right now. It just makes sense. Quote

That's the only time I considered picking a team, unfortunately my team (Fantastic Ones) was selected. Â I think my promotion will be running all brand new tag teams. Quote
goc Posted June 13, 2015 Report Posted June 13, 2015 To me this isn't really a competition, outside of perhaps the drafting part. It's just a creative writing outlet using the medium of professional wrestling. So I find much more value in getting the guys I would enjoy booking more than getting bigger names or having a "national TV time slot." The roleplaying aspect of being a carny wrestling promoter also has some appeal. Quote

It is a part that I didn't think about when I signed up, but it's been a lot of fun. Quote
dawho5 Posted June 13, 2015 Report Posted June 13, 2015 Yeah, I'm all about seeing what kind of things can be accomplished in a cooperative manner. A part of it is the nature of the draft and how thin talent is going to end up being as well. It's going to be hard to have a really big wrestling show with 4 or 5 big names. Quote
