I was under the impression that I'm up for two picks at 2 est.

Whats the executive decision? With 8 guys we need speedy drafters.

**LKJ** · 06-04-2012, 02:00 PM

I think we let moorobot pick two at 2:00.

Since it sounds like you screwed Halpert out of being in, you should send him a PM apprising him that he can take over the entry at (insert time here, perhaps 4:00 EST?) if rorrr hasn't picked by then. We give him until 6:00 to accept and pick, or else disko takes over. The draft carries on in the meantime. Sound okay?

teejayC · 06-04-2012, 02:02 PM

Imo,

JimHalpert should be in, because he asked Saturday, but since he wasn't included for whatever reason and the draft's already started there's not much we can do about it. rorrr missing his first pick is not a great sign but he may not know we have started there are rules in place to reduce people's windows when they don't pick in time. I think he should get at least until the end of the day to pick. If he has to be replaced then JimHalpert should get first refusal since he asked first, and then disko. And yeah moorobot should be up for two picks now.

I don't really mind what happens though.

Edit - slow pony, yeah what LKJ said sounds fine.

wesrwood · 06-04-2012, 02:04 PM

I pm'd Jimhalpert like an hour ago and rorr was on at like 11:30 last night after we started picking

One of the most recognizable wrestlers in history. A hugely successful main eventer both during the golden era and the attitude era; he was up at the top of both of wrestling's highest peaks. Over two decades of stellar mic work. Some of the greatest matches of all time. Macho Man Randy Savage ohhhhhhhhhhhh yeah Dig it!

**LKJ** · 06-04-2012, 02:07 PM

Just looked...rorrr signed on within the last 90 minutes. I did PM him last night right after I picked, so he's been properly notified. I don't think we need to give him much of a grace period. IMO JimHalpert and rorrr are in a race to the podium starting immediately, and if by 6:00 EST neither of them posts then disko gets to be in that race as well. That would be my ruling if Judy doesn't object.

wesrwood · 06-04-2012, 02:12 PM

So are we skipping them until then? My only problem is that screws whoever gets the team

teejayC · 06-04-2012, 02:13 PM

Yeah that's fair enough if he was PMed and has been logged on since. Sounds like a fair ruling, I also like the idea of a race to the podium, adds to the excitement!

Was hoping Savage was gonna drop back to me since he went at #16 last time and I pick #12. Def one of the best 3 or 4 available.

moorobot · 06-04-2012, 02:14 PM

And, according to the 2+2 forums tournament, one of the four greatest wrestlers of all time…

As far as I know, this is the farthest Shawn Michaels has ever dropped in one of these drafts. The combination of charisma, in ring work, longevity, and peak is just too much to pass up in the 2nd round.

wesrwood · 06-04-2012, 02:14 PM

surprised HBK went soo late

Dylan · 06-04-2012, 02:15 PM

I always liked Savage's TNA theme http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VudDXIEAOKw btw LKJ was that the guy who you thought was by far the best value left?

Dylan · 06-04-2012, 02:16 PM

I would have picked HBK over Rock and Cena if I hadn't already had him in one of thee drafts.

No, that guy is actually still available, though I've backed off my stance internally again. That's why I was "grudging" in my acceptance of it before. I do think it's who I'm picking if I can.

Judy, I shouldn't be the one to rule on whether they're skipped so I can pick now. Conflict of interest. This call's up to you.

wesrwood · 06-04-2012, 02:20 PM

Im executively letting Disko in since he is active. I told Jim to post in the sign up thread and he didnt.

Disko takes Bret Hart and Chris Jericho. You are up
