PWO 1988 - 1992 Draft Discussion

[Grimmas]

I think 5 is a good number considering the 35 we are currently drafting.

As long as we can split up tag teams.. like I can keep Haku make him 96 Meng, and dump Tama.

[Beast]

That's a must. Especially when the tag team didn't compete at all between 1993 & 1997.

[Grimmas]

By the way, if anybody steals my next pick from me, there will be MURDER.

[LowBlowPodcast]

30 minutes till Castlebolt is up.

[Beast]

OK so Castlebolt is up, SmartMark can make his pick whenever he shows up

[SmartMark15]

My apologies, friends. Had no idea this would go by so fast. I've made my pick in the draft thread.

[gordi]

You didn't know that six hours would go by in six hours?

[Blehschmidt]

I have some questions about the keepers. (Never been in a fantasy league with keepers.

 

 

So let's say you don't have 5 guys worth keeping at the end of this. They've either retired, died, or massively gone downhill. Let's say you only want to keep 2 guys. Can you just keep 2, or do you have to find 5 to keep?

 

 

If you don't have to keep 5, where do your compensatory picks fall? I ask this because a lot of the keepers will probably become guys like Rockers Shawn Michaels, who blossoms into a potential first round pick in the 93-97 time frame. Which is great for the guys who picked people like him, but if you were someone who wasn't lucky enough to get a pick like that, and your compensatory picks don't come until the end of the regular draft, you are pretty much getting screwed for having chosen a roster with older guys, people who died or had other issues, or just having been unlucky with draft order.

[Beast]

May as well go with unlimited keepers, but the number you keep impacts when you get your first pick in the next draft.

 

So if I kept 1997 Shawn Michaels, 1997 Sting, 1996 Lex Luger, & 1993 Yokozuna, I wouldn't get a pick until round 5.

 

If you keep no one, you start picking from the non-keepers in round 1.

[Grimmas]

Also. Maybe after booking is done we all rank the shows. Whoever is first gets first pick in next draft and so on?

[Grimmas]

By the way, Papa Shango on the moon! Voodoo powers!! Fucking look out.

 

Instead of time travel, clones, or whatever, I think I settled on transferring the minds of the people from that time into bodies created on the moon, and will return to that exact moment in time with no memories after they are done on the moon... which this bodies may be special (ie real working voodoo, real earthquake power, etc....)

 

Unsettled on that, but .. it's an idea.

[Blehschmidt]

The first page of the draft thread, under Round 13 currently reads: Doing the Clown/ Matt Borne

 

I think you should run with that gimmick!

[SirEdger]

Admit it, bleh. You took the Killer Bees in retaliation for me stealing Brad Armstrong from you, right?

[Grimmas]

Koko is gone.......... FUCK!

[Blehschmidt]

Admit it, bleh. You took the Killer Bees in retaliation for me stealing Brad Armstrong from you, right?

It was a direct consequence. With the Lightning Express no longer available, The Bee's became the only face team I could come up with that fit my plan.

[LowBlowPodcast]

I hate all the keeper talk... it makes me change plans... although I feel good about what I have now... I feel great about what I have in the future with Hall and Nash along with Austin and Savage.

 

Can't believe Bad news was still around here... he is a main event level dude if used right and now I go back to the drawing board for 1989 Savage with a heel Dibiase and Bad News there but a babyface Ricky Steamboat waiting in the wings.

[Grimmas]

Super Strong Machine now.... fuck my entire babyface plan is dying.

[Blehschmidt]

Shit, I swear Bad News went a long time ago

[LowBlowPodcast]

Bleh, if you'd be interested in a possible lunch trade, I'd be happy to talk to you.

[Beast]

I've just lost like my entire upper echelon of next picks in Scorpio, Nash, Brown, and the Bushwhackers.

 

Just moves Johnny B Badd up in the order

[Matt D]

I've just lost like my entire upper echelon of next picks in Scorpio, Nash, Brown, and the Bushwhackers.

 

Just moves Johnny B Badd up in the order

 

Nailz is sitting there in the green room, waiting hopefully.

[LowBlowPodcast]

Badd is the unsung hero of this draft

[LowBlowPodcast]

Little less than an hour for Smartmark then Jetlag will be up. I will be offline for the next two hours or so... I have his proxy if need be.

[Grimmas]

Leatherface may not had been the babyface I wanted, but he is the babyface I need.

[superkix]

Would it be possible to update the rosters page? Makes it a little easier to see who's already been taken.
