Pending issues... please vote and post keepers... we are going to draft New Years week after a winter break.
1. Is WWE.com our definitive ruling or do we stick with our own judgement? 2. Character -- do we give points to the character or the wrestler? Once confirmed we'll probably start switching Sin Cara's points to Hunico 3. Main Event Promo bonus or regular promo points.... when there is a huge group (i.e. roster on the ramp), does everyone get the bonus or promo points or only those that interact or are the focus.
4 - Playoff options for S24 A - Semi-Final 2 RAW/SD; 3 RAW/SD + PPV B - Semi-Final 3 RAW/SD; 2 RAW/SD + PPV

1. Judgement 2. The real life wrestler 3. No more points for "entire roster on the ramp" but yes if they are in the ring 4. A - Semi-Final 2 RAW/SD; 3 RAW/SD + PPV

Tonights opening promo as an example of the crowd scoring I'd be in favor of -- I think where we're headed is only those in the ring, with a mic or who directly interact with those on the mic get promo points even on the ramp.
So tonight -- Orton, HHH, Steph of course -- then Cena and D Bryan would get promo too.

Draft underway... Randy Orton for sale for a couple high picks or keeper or combo of them.
Remember you can pick your prospect in any round -- and you can also change your designated prospect (as long as they scored less than 100 points last season) any time before the season starts -- 1st RAW of new season 1/6/13.

Can we all agree that rosters not completed before 8pm are automatic 0's for the week? :)
Only this league, where managers are really only required to be awake twice a calendar year, could take more than a full week to draft 46 guys.

I wish they were longer too but the idea was to have the season end on one of the big PPVS. So that makes it a little trickier.

We have a 3 season per year (vs. 2 previously) schedule Mr. Species. They are approx 18, 18 and 14.
The "Wrestlemania Season", then Summerslam and then whatever ends the calendar year.
We also have a month long playoff session and draft lottery... we're big time now! And its like March Madness or the NFL -- you gotta do good enough to make the playoffs but also get hot at the right now to make that stretch run.

Ok, here's the list of numbers for the draft lottery. Full disclosure: GO had me pick his so don't shake your head at his odd choices.

Wow, that was close... and now the Uso's will probably disappear back into obscurity. That could have had you as a strong candidate to repeat which seems to be the new holy grail in this league... repeating seems about as likely as breaking The Streak!
Just to clarify -- I'm looking to trade Orton for a first and by that I mean in this current draft. So when your pick is up, if you would like Orton with the 4th pick or whatever it is, email me and I'll let you know if I'm interested in that spot. I think I'd do it for like 4 specific guys I want - I just don't particularly want Orton for a whole nother season.
Also would move Mark Henry for more like a late 1st-mid 2nd round type pick so check in on him if he interests you.

I thought the 9 was to honor Ted Williams - the best hitter ever to play on Boston or New York.
Looks like Farn is #1 (first 3 numbers). I get the 2nd pick from the 27. Rude goes 3rd.

Something else to consider when we start opening up Main Event to regular scoring... this show does not deserve actual "main event" or curtain jerker type points. Half the time on this show the the best matches are first and the last ones are the throwaways... I don't want a Yoshi Tatsu 40 point singles win cause its the last match and getting the same as Orton on the Monday Night main event.

Seems fair enough the Shield/Wyatts shills have been the ME last week obviously and sometimes there are only two matches anyway.

That's a fair point. I'd say no jerker or main event points for that show until they prove they are taking the show as serious as the other 2.
I'm really ok without full scoring too. Just throwing the idea out there. Just thinking the show is getting better as a foundation piece of the Network so it may be worth scoring fully (to a slightly lesser degree).
