Posted July 26, 201510 yr comment_5687661 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

July 26, 201510 yr comment_5687668 Barring any changes to the list of names above, I pass on drafting anyone until at least January 1984
July 26, 201510 yr comment_5687671 I'm just gonna pass for August, there's definitely some guys I want there in September-December though.
July 26, 201510 yr comment_5687690 I will make my decision when I come up passed on who is available or yet to come.
July 26, 201510 yr comment_5687697 Passing. Only one name I'd even consider using and it's not a good fit right now
July 26, 201510 yr Author comment_5687720 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.
July 26, 201510 yr comment_5687721 Whoever doesn't get picked is working for Dale Mann and getting paid cokes & hot dogs.
July 26, 201510 yr comment_5687722 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.
July 26, 201510 yr Author comment_5687723 Yeah, if you get someone you need to go to the back of the line. I have no problem with guys not getting drafted.
July 26, 201510 yr comment_5687724 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.
July 26, 201510 yr Author comment_5687725 Sounds good. Then max of one wrestler drafted per promotion per month?
July 26, 201510 yr comment_5687727 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.
July 26, 201510 yr comment_5687730 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.
July 26, 201510 yr comment_5687731 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.
July 26, 201510 yr Author comment_5687732 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?
July 26, 201510 yr comment_5687733 Maybe if the draft is done for the month and there is left over guys then anyone can claim them?
July 26, 201510 yr comment_5687734 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. 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.
July 26, 201510 yr comment_5687735 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.
July 26, 201510 yr comment_5687739 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.
