    Is there going to be another one of those debate competitions this year? Around the Horn, was it?
    Really enjoyed it last year. Don't know if there's plans or not yet, or if it's anyone's baby, but I'd help out with it if help was wanted :)

    Jaysus!

    Believe it or not I was sitting there this morning contemplating the same thing.

    Wouldn't mind taking part, throwing together a few graphics or even organising this year. That being said, always a hell of a lot easier if a mod hosts it. I think it might be Bounty Hunter's baby.

    I guess you could call it my baby as I ran every incarnation of it but the one that didnt go the distance (to no fault of Danger Dave who stepped in for me) and yeah its easier if a mods running it as is any thread like any of those types of threads but I wasnt a mod when I ran the first few versions of it and as demonstrated in the past I have no problem with someone else taking up the mantel of host (and im sure the mod team would help with any editing etc needed).

    I had intended on running this years ATH shortly after the draft ended but that got delayed and then after I became Soccer mod and offered around the ATH host position. However It would have not been noticed too much as at the same time I was seing who would be up for running the draft in my place next year.

    tbh more so than running the draft I could still run ATH as there is a lot less to it but id only rate the likelyhood of me running one in the next while at around 30-35% atm and it's risen to that after reading the above posts. So as said before if someone else had the inclination to take the reigns now it's not so much my baby that i'd have an issue with that.

    I'll volounteer myself as host anyway!

    Kinda itching to make up graphics and some questions for it. :D

    But I don't wanna get ahead of myself, suppose we could throw up a thread and see who wants to do it?

    I was doing well, if I remember right, until I argued CM Punk was the most under/misused wrestler on the roster and then he won the title the next week and had the whole Summer of Punk story :P

    sounds good, probably won't partake though as I fear it'd be like the PW draft where I start out with good intentions, but don't have the time to stick with it.

    I'd join in, always find it good fun, even if I did fall at the first hurdle last year...
