**Official Royal Rumble Pool Thread** - Page 4 - Wrestling -- Two Plus Two Poker Forums

random is definitely a random number from 1-30 which gets you whoever comes out in that spot. if you get a ****ty middle of the pack number, sorry! not going to add in weird stipulations for first half/last half.

In for random. Will paypal.

Haven't followed wrestling in years but I still catch the Rumble as often as not. It was always my favorite event. My 4 brothers and I used to draw names from a hat when betting on CPU Royal Rumbles on SNES, lol.

Pretty excited for the real thing!

Pen me in but I'm not sure if I'll 100% be in, just getting a spot in case.

Most likely I will, just not sure if it's something worth following since I'll probably be drunk as piss at the actual event. But save me a spot, I'll confirm way in advance so if for some reason I decide not to there will be time to get in an alternate.

Seriously. Being unsure about ten dollars and having something silly to mark out for seems like a no-brainer.

Also no to Merge until we at least have a volunteer for Stars escrow.

Yes and yes! Only two spots remaining though now! But even after that please definitely express interest so we can have alternates because I have a feeling at least one or two people will go AWOL.

EMc thanks for adding the spreadsheet link, if you could please change the payout section in OP to look like this that would kick a lot of ass. Thanks!

Random Pool
10 per entry.

First Elimination: 25
Longest Run: 25
Runner-up: 50
Winner: 200

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Draft Pool
10 per entry.

Longest Run: 25
Most Eliminations: 25
Final 4: 25
Runner-up: 50 (would also get 25 from Final 4 for a total of 75)
Winner: 100 (same as above, total of 125)

also we can still peel 25 or 50 out and do most eliminations for random pool. don't want to **** around with it too much but I think having more payouts is more fun.

IN!!!

In for both if there's still room. This is hands-down my favorite sports-related sweat.

In college we used to do a drinking game along w/ this (sip of beer for every entrant elimination). You also get 3 chances to pick one wrestler's entrance. If you're correct, you start a waterfall (only valid on entrant's 1-20 for obv reasons).

Last year I got my gf to do shots of sake together, same rules (sans the "Pick your entrant"). Holy christ it was a fun night!

OK I think this is pretty solid. The random one is slightly more top-heavy compared to the draft for reasons enumerated ITT. Adding these to the google doc and calling it good unless there is an OccupySpreadsheet mass-protest.

Confirmed in for both. You are #30 in random.

You are #31 sadly

Again guys and gals please express interest if you have any even though we are full as people will probably fail to pay and disappear before Jan. 30th. And there is still room in the but I think we should cap that out at 15 so everyone gets 2 picks. Would actually be nice if someone bailed so we all had 3 picks as we have eleven at the moment

And we are still working on getting a non-USAer to handle Stars escrow but I will update the thread and OP with Paypal/Stars info when we have it.
