Beast Posted July 26, 2015 Report Share Posted July 26, 2015 Going to get this started. Rules - 1) Draft goes in order. You have the option of passing or picking. If you pick, you move to the back of the line. If you pass, you keep your spot for next month. So, don't pick if you have your eyes set on someone coming up in November. 2) If wrestlers remain after the first round finishes, the draft snakes back until all wrestlers are gone or all drafters pass. Any additional pick also sends the drafter to the end of the line for future months. peachchaos - PASS TravJ - PASS RocketCrypt - PASS Beast - PASS Boon - PASS KrisZ - PASS JHawk - PASS dawho5 - PASS goc - PASS Cross Face - PASS Grimmas - PASS Jesse Ewiak - PASS Wahoos Leg - PASS JerryVonKramer - PASS Flyin Brian - PASS LowBlowPodcast - PASS El Boricua - PASS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TravJ1979 Posted July 26, 2015 Report Share Posted July 26, 2015 Barring any changes to the list of names above, I pass on drafting anyone until at least January 1984 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goc Posted July 26, 2015 Report Share Posted July 26, 2015 I'm just gonna pass for August, there's definitely some guys I want there in September-December though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beast Posted July 26, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 26, 2015 I'd say they roll over to the next month. Pretend they're working for smaller groups and the big companies don't have room for them right now. Just for example, if John Tolos is still unemployed in December, then that just shows that no promotor was looking for a guy like him at this time. If everyone else passes and one promoter still wants guys, I suppose he can just continue taking the undrafted names from the back of the line.

goc Posted July 26, 2015 Report Share Posted July 26, 2015 Whoever doesn't get picked is working for Dale Mann and getting paid cokes & hot dogs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Boricua Posted July 26, 2015 Report Share Posted July 26, 2015 I'd assume keep drafting until everyone says they are done. any names left over would roll over. There is the danger of guys constantly passing each month on picking and leaving a few low card names orphans, so we may need to figure out what happens if a guy is constantly rolled over. Not in favor of making them free agents if we're allowing guys to pass on picks and keep their slot order for the next month. Someone could game the system keeping their draft slot for the next month but still getting someone via free agency. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beast Posted July 26, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 26, 2015 Yeah, if you get someone you need to go to the back of the line. I have no problem with guys not getting drafted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goc Posted July 26, 2015 Report Share Posted July 26, 2015 Yea I don't think anyone should be allowed to take the scraps at the end like we did in the real draft. Then you could just pass every month and always get something while maintaining your spot in the draft order. Anyone not drafted should get put back in for the next month's.

Beast Posted July 26, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 26, 2015 Sounds good. Then max of one wrestler drafted per promotion per month? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goc Posted July 26, 2015 Report Share Posted July 26, 2015 That sounds fair. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grimmas Posted July 26, 2015 Report Share Posted July 26, 2015 There should be a max on how many passes you can do in a row. Like if you pass in August, you can't pass in September or something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goc Posted July 26, 2015 Report Share Posted July 26, 2015 Why? If there's no one you want in those months what does it matter? You aren't stacking draft picks, it's not like I skipped August so I get 2 in September. I just keep my spot in the order if someone ahead of me wants to pick.

Grimmas Posted July 26, 2015 Report Share Posted July 26, 2015 I guess I just don't like the idea of guys not working who were working in the past. If everybody passes a bunch of times there will be undrafted guys for months and months and months. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beast Posted July 26, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 26, 2015 Right. You shouldn't have to be forced to draft anyone you don't want. You keep your spot until you choose. ------------------- If no one has any use for some of these guys other than jobbers, what's the point in drafting them?

Grimmas Posted July 26, 2015 Report Share Posted July 26, 2015 Maybe if the draft is done for the month and there is left over guys then anyone can claim them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If everybody passes a bunch of times there will be undrafted guys for months and months and months. They aren't going to be working if you force someone to take them who doesn't want to use them. They will be on a roster doing nothing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goc Posted July 26, 2015 Report Share Posted July 26, 2015 Maybe if the draft is done for the month and there is left over guys then anyone can claim them? We just established why that's not a workable solution because then you could just skip your draft pick, pick up a bunch of scrubs AND still have your pick the next month.

JerryvonKramer Posted July 26, 2015 Report Share Posted July 26, 2015 I am not passing and have been in this spot before where guys want to have their cake (passing, leaving draft) and eat it (prevent whoever is left from hoovering up talent). Someone PM ded. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
