Yup, by spongey.

glenjamin

Pick changed. If anybody has him well then, I dunno anymore! Another man for you Nexus Punked.

Mr.Nice Guy

Read some recent write-ups.

caspa - Entertaining show and your card is shaping up well. Nice to see Tiger Mask featuring prominently. :cool:

Spongey - Really liking Barrett's character. One of my favourites in this year's game. Also like Ron Simmons's storyline. Your shows have a nice flow to them when reading.

Liz - Nice concept there with the hardcore title battle royal. Liked who you went with as hardcore champ too as I always liked him with that title.

I think it's up to ourselves who we showcase on the shows and who we don't.

I'm wondering about the end date myself as I'll be really limited for time after next week and so I'll probably have to stick up my final show and PPV by next weekend.

BH, walt, are you lads still on for the combined triple show?

the groutch

final pick made and PM sent.

hope Glenjamin is happy with my choice for him, I figured Jeff has had a good few personae which gives options (had one particular one in mind but don't want to influence Glen's writeup)

going to squeeze in my last house show about 6pm tomorrow (been very busy)

yes tis up to ourselves who we showcase on the shows and you have no obligation for example to include anyone someone else picked for you in this round.

No decision has been made yet on how long we will have atm but I still have my last show and PPV to write at this stage and im finding it hard to find time to write atm, others may be in the same situation so there may be say 2 weeks to write it (could be less/more dependant on peoples opinions and speed of responses) all up and submit it in the other thread.

and yeah MNG im up for doing that still but as said the last 2 weeks ive had very little time to write (the missus has had 2 weeks off as she changes jobs and ive had less free time for such things as a result) but intend to get back to that soon. Probably after I finish my last house show but thats dependant on when you / walt want to put the thing up I guess.

A few people suggested this too but when we vote for a winner, there will probably be multiple votes including one for an overall winner then lesser ones like best roster, best value individual pick, best feud, best show etc (wont actually be too many)

im hoping to get a house show up before monday

well you havent made a pick yourself this round, so technically you could pick another female wrestler, and I could trade with you

Garseys

Sorry guys, been so busy with college work and the fact my old laptop died with my write ups on it didn't help.

Hopefully in the next few days i'll be able to write some shows up as catch up...

I've been left hanging.

And Garseys hasnt made a pick for you either :pac:

A Primal Nut

I've finally posted my third show after a nearly one-month break. I'm working tonight but should have plenty of free time so I am going to try to finish off writing the rest of the shows, as I will continue not to much time after this!! For my main storyline I wrote all the segments before my first show was even posted and the plan was 5 shows and a PPV...might try to compress the next two shows into 1!

I'm reading over all the shows I missed in the evaluation thread...lots of interesting things happening!!

Bounty Hunter

finally done my last TV show. Jaysus it took ages and had to include so much stuff promo wise just to introduce many new wrestlers aswell as stips etc for the PPV and finish of the builds for those already in place. Feedback of course is welcome

Thanks BH, have a different wrestler joining JR each week makes it fun to write. Plenty of possibilities with Sheamus but my write up was long enough.

You're last write is very detailed up. Some really cool promos. I enjoyed the first half will try to read the other half later.

It's hard to read every evaluation report so I think I will just focus on the PPVs themselves when voting for a winner.

Bounty Hunter

-Whoops didnt actually realise that Walt was last in that round so we are now officially finished drafting! almost exactly 2 months it took.

Okay starting now people have 2 weeks (provisionally, if people say now that a different limit would be more suitable I'll consider changing it) to submit their PPVs in the evaluation thread. If people are struggling for time this limit can be re-evaluated but there will not be a huge change either way i.e we wont be adding an extra 2 weeks after the limit passes.

Once the time limit has passed and hopefully most have submitted their PPVs We will have our vote. I will also PM Horsebox and Volt again saying that if they wish they can make make up picks now and still submit a PPV card but honestly im not too hopefull either will at this stage. I will leave the picks thread open for a few days however just in case.

good luck on your write ups folks

My PPV is up all so feedback welcome

May I tank D2D and BH for running this years draft been tough at times but from a Personal stand point I really enjoyed it and look forward to reading everyones PPV.


Good luck all

Mr.Nice Guy

Been reading write-ups I missed. Some thoughts...

A Primal Nut - I liked the Bruno angle and him not enjoying the sports entertainment stuff. Lovely idea. Sheamus's commentary was great too. A super main event on the show too and you've a really strong main event for Battle-Mania.

BH - A very strong final show. Good matches on offer with enjoyable promos as well. I liked the angle involving Johnny trying to screw Monsoon. That made me laugh. :pac: Really enjoyed those two characters throughout. Will you stop may be my favourite catchphrase this year. The main event remains one of my eagerly awaited ones. I'm really curious to see who comes out on top in that one. Same goes for evil Rey's mask match-up.

Machismo - I liked the tournament concept. They make for fun reads. The Cena promo was excellent. You did a great job hyping that and I was very impressed with that as it increased my interest in that feud. Great work. I liked that bit about him unhappy that fans cheer for Jeff even though he's a screw up and the tease you did there was quality (fooled me too!)

caspa - I like seeing Biker Taker. Not sure if anyone ever used Taker this way in the Draft before. Cool stip for the Steen match too. Also liked the hardcore title angle involving Homicide. You've done a very nice job making your card's matches come across important.

I'm working on my last show at the minute. I'm wondering has anyone found themselves pleasantly surprised writing for a certain character? For example in my case I'm just having The Crippler Ray Stevens try to cripple people every week but it's great fun writing for him. Anybody have a character that has surprised them by how fun they are to write for?
