For what it's worth, there was going to be a clock starting yesterday but I cancelled it because there is an Australian amongst and it would be unfair cos of timezones (I'm in a different time zone too, but not as extreme and I'm always around). I figured everyone would pick within a few hours and there wouldn't really be a need for a clock; it would just make things awkward for one guy. I don't really want to skip people and have them ending up with a far inferior team.

I said we might introduce a clock on Monday, but it was no set in stone thing, just like if things were going slow a clock might be brought in. Things were going quite quickly though until this latest pick so I think we should be ok.

So yeah, don't take everything I say so literally. If I feel someone is taking the piss I might put an unannounced clock on them. Taking almost a full day whilst posting during that time would probably qualify but I did clearly say there will NOT be a clock until Monday (I meant a full-time regular clock, not an enforced one on people taking forever, but I guess I don't wanna lose my integrity...), so Wallypop has until 12pm est Monday.

(I feel like I wrote that really poorly but can't be bothered to do it again so deal with it)

Eeeew at RMJ. That's like taking the QB on your most hated team as your fantasy starter.

I'm not even sure it's a good pick, but lol WWE so it is probably fine.

A person should never even momentarily hesitate to take their personal most hated player in sports history if they think it will score the most points for their team.

(It is allowed to close your eyes and shake your head in disgust as you make the pick, of course.)

Meh, it's not massive value or anything, but just by virtue of being a perpetual babyface he'll win some matches both in singles and in stupid impromptu tag matches. Also a decent candidate to show up on more PPVs than not.

I was hoping Ron would stick around until I picked again. He should get some decent points.

For pretty much the same reasons as Kofi. Funnily enough, I wrote and deleted a writeup for the exact same guy before picking each of them.


Spoiler:

Wanted R-Truth but happy with my pick. Teejay will pick up a decent amount of points if Team Black keep doing what they're doing.

The concussion might be a problem.

R-Truth is probably a better pick than anyone going between him and Kofi except for maybe Antonio Cesaro.

I'll give Trade until 12pm est tomorrow and then everyone has 12 hours to make their pick (no dead zone). Clock might get shorter later in the week depending on how we're doing.

There are four picks before you fwiw, and you've hardly held the draft up.

Scoring questions.

In a tag team match, the entire team gets full win points, or just the member who scores the fall?

Gauntlet match, competitor goes start to finish and beats everyone. Single win or multiple wins?

Next one I'll use an example for: show starts with Cena and Punk in a singles match. Match gets thrown out for double interference(no contest points). Then we get PLAYA PLAYA PLAYA'ed in to a tag match main event. Would Cena and Punk get points for the curtain jerking singles match AND the main event tag match?

Ryback match: if he pins 2 jobbers do I get double points?

Entire team. This might be changed for next season but I wanted to keep it simple for now.

Counts as one match. See above.

Yeah they'd be credited for both matches.
