    Me watching all these names picked ahead of me...

    I didn't get a PM to pick. Perhaps it went to a similarly named user (or Mr. Mice Guy ;)) but I will have it up soon.

    Before I pick can I ask is the fifteenth round going to limit us in some way, as there's a name I feel I have to pick for storyline reasons and I'd hate to discover in the final round that I'm not eligible to go for it for some reason.

    Pick made and PM sent. I kept searching through the thread to make sure he really hadn't gone. I'm surprised he lasted this long.

    I've selected Furious-Red to go next.

    To be honest I was going to pick him this last round.. couldn't believe he lasted so long

    Its not always about the name value. I love Windham but others fit better into my story character wise despite being less successful in the ring.

    A great talent at this late stage, no doubt.

    Windham just didn't suit me. A great pickup for anyone who has a position for him in their plans.

    Seems like we booted through picks this year or am I talking through my backside?

    Ya can probably count on one hand the amount of 12hr+ waits.

    I have my promo intro post almost complete, is it best to wait until after draft is completed to post it or can it be edited later?

    Well you really shouldnt edit your work if you can, like if we read it once we might not re read it after changes are made.

    But you can post it when your good and ready, most usually post it after picks are complete but some do post early too.

    Okay, will probably wait then. Should have my first tv show completed by the end of the draft can post both then.

    As someone who has always posted at least a show before the pick phase ends, it is KILLING me not to do so this year!

    Yeah think I'd usually have a show up already but that was before the 4 post limit and tbh my 1st show or two would not usually contain as many storyline strands as ill be jamming into my 1st or 2nd show this time.

    Emmmm Mr. Beaker sir. Don’t want to ruin any surprised but what are the chances of a 16th round? Just trying to line up much needed chickens.

    This might have been asked already, I can't remember...

    Most years my PPV is broken into a part one and part two. I'm wondering this year will such a situation be treated as one post or two posts?

    Slim and none. No 16th round.

    Round 15 will have a stip and it will be based on the round order average again, so dont line up too many chickens either

    Joes original outline was 3 shows - a scene setter show, a stories show and a PPV show. He said your PPV could be split into 2 posts making it a max 4posts.

    After the vote it was decided it was agreed on that we would go with that suggested max of 4 posts. I may have missed something though

    My understanding of how we agreed was that we have 4 posts maximium to use how we see fit.

    If you want to use 2 for your PPV, that will leave you 2 to use in the build up whther be tv shows or preview posts. You dont have to use the 4 posts, but you can not go beyond 4.

    As a man who usually posts 6 posts before his PPV I am finding it hard but at teh same time Im enjoying the challenge.

    My current paln is to have a year in review type post to cover the ground of what happnened in BCW since last year, a post to cover the feuds and how they came about, and 2 PPV posts to cover the big show itself.
