Good progress being made tonight! (surely put a curse on it now!)

JP Liz V1

I had Charlotte in mind for a later round, she has improved so much, good heel diva, great pick with Becky

Yep cursed it only for a couple of hours though.

Good to see another round moving on.

The stip is very interesting for roumd 5 as it is limiting in a good way. Keeps some more names for the next round but should allow picks of big names or important ones (perhaps a little earlier that planned).

In my head I will be trying to predict who will be picked.

campo

Bad feeling my next pick will go before it gets to me because of the stips

I have some bad news,


You might have missed a trick there despite your very good pick.


Wade is an interesting guy to have as he had potential to kick on at differant times and if you start him at one of those stages he can be pushed as far as you want.

campo

No one else has picked since you so maybe check with Joe or BH if it ok

Bounty Hunter

Just home from work but especially as spongey has now picked and added an ECW look to his fed i'd have to say the pick probably shouldn't be edited as the edited version also was not originally intended. If you made an error and realised straight off that meant you meant to pick a tag partner with him then that could be edited in here but it would seem the intended pick was the one made and then cos of DMs comment you realised what could have been. If people think that is harsh say so or if Beaker decides something else (as im only helping out) thats fair enough too.

Van Dam is a good pick and Spongey along with a few others (most tbh) seems to have a nice roster already assembling with its own unique feel to it.

Sorry about causing hassle with above post. Just wanted to use the "bad news", line (and didn't even get that right)

I enjoyed it!!

Morning guys..... Im still not 100 percent or close to it, so bare with me while I find the energy for today.

Unfortunatly once a pick is made, its final unless its uneligable. It will have to go down as a missed opportunity sadly, though I imagine your happy with old Wade anyway.

Its happened to me before in the game where ive drafted someone only to suddenly realise the had a tag partner and missed out. It happens and I have noticed many picks already have been made that have missed out on tag team partners (Lord TSCs Xavier Woods for example).

ShagNastii

I used to hold off tag team picks. Twas either to hold out for an actually tag team pick or because I didn't want a lesser talent sullying my roster.

But now I think if there is an option of a tag pick addition you need to do it 100%. Nobody ever reaches the max quota and I've noticed that the biggest rosters unsurprisingly have more scope and depth. You need your curtain-jerkers.

Furious-Red

No worries guys , i will learn from my mistake for the rest of the tournament

I though it was always after round four but I re-read the rules and trading commencement is only after it's announced.

Is that right Joe?

Truth and full disclosure here : I totally forgot about the trading. I was reminded of it only this morning, and seeing as round 5 is probably complicated enough, I was going to allow it from round six. Is this ok?

LeeJM

Sounds fine to me. Im sure whatever trades that would be done in Rd5 will still be done in Rd6

ShagNastii

Sounds good *thumbs up*

Haven't really my eye on anyone but as always am open to all offers in terms of trading.

Necro

Feck it, thought Chyna would last a little longer. Good pick Liz.

Bounty Hunter

Chyna always goes once someone starts off the ladies picks and is a solid choice... and sure with trades even if someone agrees a trade now they can just wait and announce it in rd 6

beakerjoe

Wade Barrett is the first guy going in the stip round. He was available to those in the the first part of round 5, as well as to those in the NXT part of the round.

RVD is one of the few guys available in all 4 stips, so no shock to see him go this round. Yes, RVD had a match in NXT

Chyna could have gone here or in the Homer stip as she was American, but also in the TNA ROH stip as she appeared in TNA

A Brad Maddox Guy

Pick made & PM sent. Not sure when Bounty Hunter tends to become available where he is. There were a lot of names to consider this round, some that I found it hard not to pick but with the number of tag teams dwindling I felt I needed to add more depth and variety to my roster. With the varied stips though I expect a lot of big names to still be available in round 6.

Necro

Outlaws are always a good value pick. Can be used as singles stars or a tag team.

Bounty Hunter

Pick made and PM sent. Probably could have gotten Nash in a later round but the NWO is on the BWA this year

LeeJM

So the NWO is alive and well this year. And they even have their money man with them. Cant wait to see what BH is able to do with them.

A Brad Maddox Guy

NWO is an incredible get. You say you hadn't planned it so it'll be interesting to find out if you're plans have been drastically changed as a result.

Bounty Hunter

Honestly never even thought about drafting Nash until after getting the Hall & Perfect pick. Very Heel heavy now thanks to the NWO picks, might have to use Big Dave as a face

Necro

Pick up and PM sent. With the TNA rule being relaxed I knew I wanted the Dudleys next.
