The Boards WWE Draft spectacular!

Bounty Hunter

what happens to Micheals pick if B.i does not make it by 5? does MNG still make it on his behalf, would seem unfair on B.i that they both miss their go yet micheals gets a pick.

Surely this sets the record for the longest round yet....b.ie curious has til 5pm yes?

Easily. And to make it worse, if b.ie aint on, he will have a pick after Michaeletc again, so we could be stuck until tomorrow afternoon again.

I know no one is deliberately holding it up, but its still a pain in the hole.

Bounty Hunter

I know we told Micheals etc he could go after B.i (infact he PM'd MNG his pick) and this might sound harsh but if B.i doesent show before 5, I think they should both just get 2 picks in thye next round, we shouldent have to wait for the same people twice in the same round

But b.ie will have another chance after micheal's pick...

But if he misses his second chance, does he his lose his opportunity to pick for this round?

so what we could end up waiting 2 days for B.ie? Micheal's pick will be made automatically when MNG comes on after 5.


really hope b.ie is on in the next hour

Yes, which could make this round even longer

Hopefully we'll get this round over with today.

How long has this been going for anyway? 5 weeks?

This round?....seems like it

First round started June 26th, so it's been going for 4 weeks.

Tricity Bendix

Apologies all, i really thought i'd be able to make my pick yesterday. i've been travelling and working since. i'll explain my pick later (I hope).

Vince135792003

That's a great pick. I thought there was a chance the Hammer would get overlooked.

I thought MNG might have gone with Greg Valentine seeing as how he had Piper.

gimmick

Nice one. Good choice. I had thought of them earlier, but almost went for Beefcake as a singles choice.

Hopefully MNG can draw soon, and a good run can me made on round 8 before the weekend.

Mr.Nice Guy

I'll just pop michael's pick on the thread now and should have the draw up soon afterwards. :cool:

Fozzy

Smart pick. After Hogan, Mascaras is probably the most famous wrestler in the world

Mr.Nice Guy

OK thankfully we can now leave Round 7 behind us. I'm disappointed we had another missed turn having gone several rounds without one. May I remind those who already missed their turn that after a second missed turn it's elimination - as happened to john concannon - so please try to get your turn in as quickly as you can, especially those with a strike against them. Alright then here is the line-up for Round 8 of the draft challenge...

Fozzy please do the usual cut & paste job on the above. Apologies to b.ie curious for giving you another rotten draw. You deserved a better one.

I'd like to remind everyone that we are entitled to a maximum of two tag teams and we must have at least one tag team. By my count everyone bar five of us have yet to reach the maximum limit on tag teams.

Likewise we are entitled to a maximum of two females for our rosters and we must have at least one female. By my count only 2 of us have reached the limit on women however 10 people have yet to pick a woman at all so just bear all this in mind as the challenge reaches its close.

Right then Vince and Minto will kick this round off. As always I bid you good luck and Happy Pickings. :cool:

Bounty Hunter

cheers MNG, hopefully this round will go faster and hopefully we will get a quick start today and get most of the way through the round before the weekend kicks in.

Fozzy

I've got someone in mind who I really want for this round

I'm not going to lie.. I haven't got a clue who i want...

Hmm, I will not be. Although with a couple more picks, I would have.

Now I know everyone wants this round done a little quicker than the last one but I'm gonna need a little time to think.

I had my picks sorted but Fozzy's mind games in his last few post has admittedly rattled me somewhat!

It'll be done by 10 at the latest.

Yeah i think this round might drag out a little. But not because of people not being on the interweb, but because it will be tougher to decide

michael.etc...

Thanks for making my pick MNG! Got who i wanted too!

It's getting tough now. I'm thinking i should pick my required female... but there's another really big name left....

Bounty Hunter

Well Vince has gone and iirc that leaves only two WWE champions from the years I think we're including i.e 1963-present day

Fozzy

Good pick, Rogers influenced a lot who came after him

Not who I'm looking to pick though!

Vince135792003

Fozzy wrote: »

Didn't think it was!

But I'm happy you made me re-think. Really pleased with the pick I made. I probably needed another big draw and few were bigger draws than him in the 1950's and 60's.

When WWE showed old WWWF shows on Sky from the early 1980's Buddy Rogers even past his prime and retired from the ring, clearly had an aura about him and was strong on the mic. He was a big player in wrestling.

Bubs101

RebelRockChick probably should have picked him. Him vs. Flair would have drawn

There's still time to pick the Black Nature Boy, Scoot Andrews!

Bubs101 wrote: »

She's more than well covered. Lots of natural match ups on her roster.

i have two people in my head now.. go me!

Both are mediocre pics really, but they can be used effectively.

gimmick

Have the last few picks been the slowest ever. It seems like an age ago since Round 6 started.

Am I the only one who thinks that RRC's draft picks seem suspiciously close to roster that a certain Mr VR would pick if he was doing this? Apart from Jerry Lynn of course.;):D

Shes got the best roster out of the whole lot as far as I can see anyway.

ShawnRaven

That is liabel, Doc. you can't prove sh*t
VR!

Personally, I think EC18 is miles ahead. He's got a man with unmatchable charisma and two ready made fueds that fans would pay to see that don't even involve that man and it wouldn't even be bad technichally

Mr.Nice Guy

Wow Minto in danger of losing his pick. :eek:

If only it were true...

Bubs101

Him and Daivari were my third choice for this round. Good pick

Bounty Hunter

yep had been 50:50 on if I should pick Hussan or someone else, was kinda leaning towards Hussan though and didnt think he would see too much interest till atleast the next round.

Wow, my heart sank for a second. I thought you said you picked him and daivari in the third round.


You couldn't have them as a tag team anyway... MNG's a hard ass :pac:

In the words of Fr. Noel Furlong/Graham Norton off Fr. Ted, "You're on my enemy list now!!"

That's 2 rounds in a row you've taken my next pick. Great choice.

Fozzy

Here's hoping that Danger Dave doesn't see fit to take my pick...

Danger_Dave

Alright Ive made my pick, fozzy your up . Now its time for me to leave and go get drunk !

Fozzy

I'm surprised that Sable wasn't taken yet! I've basically got my whole roster sorted now I think, might have some fun with the last two

Minto
