Title: Talent Draft....


Big F'N Swigg - April 11, 2006 01:29 AM (GMT)
I have Rowe's list. Anyone else wanting to be part of the DWB NWA needs to send me a copy of their list by this weekend. I'll try and do the draft by Saturday

jamiegeist - April 11, 2006 01:33 AM (GMT)
How big is this draft? I honestly don't care for more than 20-25 workers to start out with. The one I saw that you guys did before was pretty damn massive.

prof_plague - April 11, 2006 02:30 AM (GMT)
I used to like having a big roster, but now a smaller one is better for me too.

Big F'N Swigg - April 11, 2006 01:55 PM (GMT)
Send me a list of your top 100. We won't draft 100 rounds, but we'll draft enough to make sure you have a healthy roster.

jamiegeist - April 11, 2006 05:15 PM (GMT)
Yes, I fully intend on sending 100, but my point was just that I was wondering how big the rosters will be.

Cause Ideally, we each send 100, and there are 5 of us, that should give each of us 20 wrestlers.

Of course, I don't even know how many of us are in.

SamoaRowe - April 11, 2006 08:50 PM (GMT)
If we end up with small rosters, it just means we'll have to agree to trade talent for certain events and such :)


Besides, as of right now the only ones participating are myself, Swiggy, Jamie, and Plague.

smkelly13 - April 12, 2006 05:54 AM (GMT)
I'm in now too.

I might prefer to keep a small roster because there's always a few people I never use, a few people I hardly use, and a few people I always use - this way, I can use almost my entire roster in one show.

Plus it works out that we'll have a show a week, as compared to my usual games where I have at least two.

jamiegeist - April 12, 2006 03:44 PM (GMT)
Any chance we could just legitimately do a draft online, like fantasy sports?

Big F'N Swigg - April 12, 2006 04:04 PM (GMT)
Wouldn't have the first idea how to do that

smkelly13 - April 12, 2006 04:25 PM (GMT)
Make a chat room on AOL or something. We could pull it off. Just gotta figure a time we can all agree on.

Scrooge McSuck - April 12, 2006 06:04 PM (GMT)
If there's still room to join, and I can get off my lazy ass and DL everything within the next day or so, can I be in on this too? :D

SamoaRowe - April 12, 2006 06:14 PM (GMT)

Scrooge McSuck - April 12, 2006 06:15 PM (GMT)
I'm 3 steps ahead of you Roweman. Hopefully nothing fucks up.

And prepare for WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAR!!!

Big F'N Swigg - April 12, 2006 06:49 PM (GMT)
I still need talent lists

jamiegeist - April 12, 2006 10:37 PM (GMT)
I'm still thinking it'd be alot more fun and interactive if we do an actual worker draft.

Draft say, 25 rounds. With 5 or 6 people, that would be nothing.

We would just have to decide when is a time that works for everyone (and everyone should still create a list for fallback purposes....in case they can't make it or have a problem).


smkelly13 - April 13, 2006 07:47 PM (GMT)
I'm up for this.

AOL chat ? Saturday ?

smkelly13 - April 13, 2006 08:46 PM (GMT)
TapesMaster04 is my AOL sn.

I think if we did this in a live chat room, it'd be great, and fun. Lay out the finalized rules and such, and if there were any questions, they could be answered there.

SamoaRowe - April 13, 2006 11:18 PM (GMT)
If we do it on saturday, I'm afraid i wouldn't be available until 11:30 at night.

smkelly13 - April 13, 2006 11:53 PM (GMT)
What time zone ? I'm Eastern, so that's usually two to three hours behind the rest of the US.

jamiegeist - April 14, 2006 03:26 AM (GMT)
I would safely be available around the same time. I'm probably good on Sat from 10 pm Central on.

smkelly13 - April 14, 2006 03:49 AM (GMT)
Okay, Rowe, jamie, and me.

Who else is available at that time ?

SamoaRowe - April 14, 2006 04:02 AM (GMT)
We still need to hear from Swiggy.

smkelly13 - April 14, 2006 04:37 AM (GMT)
Is Prof gonna play ?

jamiegeist - April 14, 2006 05:43 AM (GMT)
Last I heard Plague was in. And Kido last message about it was that he wanted in as well.

Why is it so hard to get ahold of these people.

smkelly13 - April 15, 2006 04:07 PM (GMT)
I sent mine in a few days ago.

So, are we going to do this thing tonight, or what ?

SamoaRowe - April 15, 2006 05:58 PM (GMT)
Unless I get stuck staying late at work, I'll actually be home well before 11:30 like I first thought. I'll try to hang out on the internet for a while to see if anything happens.

Otherwise, Swiggy should probably just do the draft like originally planned.

smkelly13 - April 15, 2006 06:40 PM (GMT)
I'm available for this evening, I'm sure jamiegeist is as well, Rowe says he is later at night......

WHO ELSE ?

Lol.

prof_plague - April 15, 2006 08:12 PM (GMT)
I sent my list in. I'm not sure if I'll about tonight though.

smkelly13 - April 15, 2006 09:10 PM (GMT)
Okay. Since no one but myself and jamiegeist are really trying to do this thing, why not you guys send your lists (in order of who you want, etc) to myself, or jamiegeist. We'll do the draft, and let you know what's going on.

How does that sound ?

SamoaRowe - April 16, 2006 01:42 AM (GMT)
Well, I'm home for the night. We'll just have to see how things work out.

jamiegeist - April 16, 2006 07:34 AM (GMT)
For real. Swigg, Plague........do you guys wanna do this or not?

Me, SMkelly, and Rowe are all ready to go, we're online, looking for a live draft, trying to add something to this thing. And we can't even get a response out of you two that lends to the idea.


smkelly13 - April 16, 2006 07:39 AM (GMT)
If they're not, oh well.

I have my 1983 game going, and it's kicking ass.

jamiegeist - April 16, 2006 07:41 AM (GMT)
Cmon Sean, don't be stealing threads from me. You know whats going on right now. :)

Big F'N Swigg - April 16, 2006 05:28 PM (GMT)
I've been at my Grandma's the past few days putting a new floor in her bedroom. That's why I said have your lists by this weekend. So I could do the draft today or tomorrow.

smkelly13 - April 16, 2006 08:15 PM (GMT)
I re-submitted my list, in draft order :)

Big F'N Swigg - April 16, 2006 08:35 PM (GMT)
I need JamieGeist's list. Then I'll be ready

jamiegeist - April 16, 2006 09:16 PM (GMT)
Have you seen any of our posts about doing a live draft instead of a list-selection?

Lets set a date, and go for it. Myself, Rowe, and SMkelly were on last night, wanting to do it, but couldn't trac kdown yourself or Plague in time. If we just set it in a day or two, at a time everyone can do it, and then if someone can't make it, we default to the list.


jamiegeist - April 16, 2006 09:26 PM (GMT)
And swiggy, are you or plague online? AOL or anything? Cause we ne ed to try and get this puppy rolling.

I'm goin to eat some Easter lunch, so I'll be on later.

Big F'N Swigg - April 16, 2006 09:27 PM (GMT)
I don't have any messenger stuff. I haven't used any of those since my freshman year in college
