Subject: Valet Scoring

After scoring a few of these things I have realized there is a grey area that needs to be addressed. When trying to determine if someone who accompanies a wrestler to the ring actually interferes or not has led to confusion ever since we started this league.
What if we just made a solid +3 or +5 for anyone who accompanies a wrestler to the ring. They would then not be eligible to get the interference points as well - as interference (or lack of it) is part of the role they play being the valet.
I think this would just make scoring much easier... you see Jillian walk down the ramp with Bradshaw and you just go ahead and award her points for being his valet instead of having to determine whether she did anything to distract the ref or whatever...
I think it would also make interference easier cause it would have to be someone that runs out from the back and hits the ring to earn interference points. |

I'm actually against this. I like it the way it is. There are numerous occasions where somebody like Jillian comes to the ring each week doing nothing. No reason to award that points.
I can't remember too many instances where its hard to score interference. If the person distracts the action in the ring or is involved in any way to change the match (her guy hitting the floor and her rubbing his shoulders before he climbs back in does not count) then the person gets 5. Otherwise no points.

Agreed. I'm pretty clear on what interference is.

We defined this pretty clearly. They either have to physically interfere (slap, stomp, punch, whatever) or interfere in any way that grants another wrestler an advantage (shake your ass, distract ref, whatever).
In something completely unrelated, I was checking WWE.com fantasy league (looks like I won AGAIN....yawn) I found this in the scoring section and thought it was funny:
--------------------------------
Question: When The Boogeyman threw worms in Simon Dean’s face, did he receive foreign object points?
-Matt W. of “Death Bringers”
Answer: Thus far, The Boogeyman has used worms only to intimidate — not to inflict physical harm. When used to intimidate, the worms will not count as foreign objects.
--------------------------------
So if he shoves them in someone's mouth, that counts? lmao

Yeah Orton's chair shots cost me (you get 3 points for every foreign object shot) and he hit Taker like 10 freaking times... that alone outscored winning the tag titles lol...

LOL - you're right about those chair shots, but thought you were exaggerating so I looked it up. WWE.com had Orton down for FIFTEEN object shots this week!
Here was this weeks scoring:
Superstar Brand Salary Points Rank
Batista SmackDown $5,000,000 66 3
Big Show RAW $4,000,000 38 11
Bobby Lashley SmackDown $2,000,000 58 5
Chris Benoit SmackDown $4,000,000 36 13
Joey Mercury SmackDown $3,000,000 41 10
Johnny Nitro SmackDown $3,000,000 38 11
Randy Orton SmackDown $4,000,000 91 1
Rey Mysterio SmackDown $4,000,000 54 6
Sharmell SmackDown $1,000,000 17 22
Orton outscores Batista and Rey by 25 or more points? Yeowch! Weak! That wouldn't even be close in OUR scoring! Plus Orton got all those "appearance" points for all of those shrink vignettes.

yeah thats almost 100 points I missed out on. I thought I did pretty well nailing Kid Kash's two wins including a PPV title win for 1.5 million, but I guess it didn't really matter.

Crap, as a rookie I knew sooner or later not knowing all the rules was going to come back to bite me. If you throw in Batista and Benoit, I will add Ashley to that deal.
If you don't want to take it I would have to call you un-American cause who doesn't want Ashley. ; )
(BTW if you haven't seen the spread, Ashley is in Maxim this month)
