0 Subject: Season VIII - Keepers

Posted by: Species
- Leader [07724916] Tue, Oct 17, 2006, 16:51

Without any objections in the planning thread, I'm putting up the keeper thread and suggesting a deadline of Tuesday October 23rd at 6:00pm ET. You may change keepers any time up to that deadline (just delete your old post). I believe we have passed our trade deadline so you're stuck with whatever scrubs you have.

I'd like to propose we start the draft on Wednesday the 24th at 12:00pm ET unless that's too quick - especially for Mike D who would need to provide a list of available wrestlers.

Good luck to all!

I'll try to get the final stats up tonight....Greg Rude, you could always e-mail a pick/queue to someone who picks after you. You could be e-mailed with the picks that were made ahead of you. Stuff like that.

I just remembered, Arent we supposed to send our keepers to tree so they remain a bit of a mystery? I would say it is definately to late now, since we have some posted already, and the whole point is so people cant switch keepers to improve draft picks.

Yeah, I think thats true... perhaps like picking up the ECW guys last season we can have a gentlemens agreement to not alter our picks.

Tree - will you have time to add up everyone's keepers and get an order today? If not - everyone can email me or post and I will add them up this afternoon.

hmmm..i was just reading the first post, and i've dangled a couple trade offers out there.

doesnt the trade deadline end when the season ends? if i can swap a keeper for a draft pick or something, isn't that allowed?

I do not think you can do any trading until the draft commences. Or at least until keepers are set and the order is set.

I believe when we last discussed it the trade deadline was final and no trades could be made until keepers were established. at that point i believe you were free to make trades.

While everyone is around for the draft, I think we need to vote on 2 things...

1. Starting next season, do we allow trading in the offseason? (specifically, after the last roster freeze and up through the draft).

2. Abolition of Heel/Face Turn points? I think we've all decided they are too difficult to track/score/award. I had some perfect candidates for them last season and couldn't seem to get them awarded.

1. Yes
2. Yes

After thinking about it, I think the point of the no trades until after keepers were declared was the intent and that would kind of be defeated by allowing it. You shouldn't be able to stockpile all the talent for a push and then easily sell them back off once the season is over and i.e. get your picks back or whatever. You gotta pick a road and stick with it til next season and IMO that was the intent of the deadline.

1. I switch to NO trading between trade deadline until the draft starts.
