PWO 1988 - 1992 Draft Discussion

[superkix]

There's one name in particular that I keep pushing back but I'm always very surprised he's still available when I come back around again.

[El Boricua]

Ther's a few names still available that I'm surprised haven't been picked. It's tempting to go off plan to get some of them.

[Lee Casebolt]

I've got a couple "he wasn't in the plan, but..." names on my list. I'm wondering if kix's name is on my list.

 

Also I wish I were better versed in lucha. I feel like a good lucha matworker would be a good add, but Elliot already took everyone I know.

[LowBlowPodcast]

I feel like a turd for saying it but I most want to pass up Joeg again since he has not made a pic on time in the last at least six rounds just so that we can try and keep this thing moving but I'll defer to the public and see what you guys would like I really don't want this to head into tomorrow and happen on the holiday for those of us in the states

[Blehschmidt]

It's not like we are drafting main events this late in the game, Skip Him.

[El Boricua]

For the last five rounds I'd consider dropping the time limit to 2 hours.

Agreed, well start that at the next new round.

[Blehschmidt]

Joe's time is up in 5 minutes anyway

[Beast]

Elliot's time is up in 2 minutes.

[LowBlowPodcast]

With the skips and proxies stay online if you are and we can get this done... Outside of the missed picks

[Beast]

Well Superkix was here but has disappeared now

[superkix]

Hi

[LowBlowPodcast]

Hi

 

There he is!

[Blehschmidt]

Ignore what was written here originally, I am an idiot!

[LowBlowPodcast]

Might as well since you're here... I don't see harm in it.

 

Who you swapping him for?

[Blehschmidt]

Nevermind. I have been keeping track of all of this on the same piece of paper for the last 20 days since I have been drafting at home, at work, and elsewhere, and I somehow never recorded my Missing Link pick. All is well. Sorry

[LowBlowPodcast]

Awesome.

[gordi]

The case of the missing Missing Link

[Blehschmidt]

I think that was a Hardy Boys/Nancy Drew mystery

[Grimmas]

So planning out my story trying to figure this out then will start writing it out. I guess the plan now is booking (after draft obviously) over the next 3-4 months, then new draft for 93-97 with draft order picked based on voting of the booking. At least that is the plan I like.

[LowBlowPodcast]

I'd say to get your voting show posted by December 31st.

 

Then we can have fun with more booking from there until May and then Run round 2

I'm not booking a single show, I'm booking a story that builds. One month is not enough to get even close to a single show. Do the voting closer to the draft.

[gordi]

Can you maybe book a one-off show before Dec. 31?

 

I feel pretty certain that some people (myself possibly included) will lose interest if we drag the second stage of this out into next year. The way stage one (the draft) is dragging on and on is already testing my enthusiasm.

[Grimmas]

I can get to a single show, not my main show, i think..... just a 30 person Rumble.. I guess it should be far enough long to judge if that is how people feel

[gordi]

I would certainly like to read your version of a Rumble with that roster! That should be nuts.

 

I haven't started writing out any of my matches yet, but I have laid out the booking for three big shows and two "best bouts" DVDs...

 

I think I'll have sufficient time to write up one show per month, if life doesn't throw me too many more curve balls.

 

My wife fell off her bike and shattered her elbow late last month and she is still in a full-arm cast after the operation. That has shaken things up quite a bit, but we are getting into a new routine now.
