I'd even be in fair of going a step further and bringing in a minimum match count to be met, although I'll acknowledge that may not work fairly with indie promotions.

I encourage smart drafting/ researched eligible picks where you play the rules given to the best of your ability etc but for the future this would perhaps be a good way of weeding out what I’d call loopholey picks.

That said atm I think I might be looking at making a very loopholey pick this round myself:pac:

Specifically with regards the tag titles question it’d be hard to judge without knowing the team in question but seeing as there was nothing in the rules about the 3month limit being reduced in this way I’d be reluctant to change things at this stage. No problem at all if people want to though as obviously titles would make them teaming together more memorable. Check cagematch.net/wrestlingdatabase.? Who know maybe you will find at least one match they teamed together in the month prior to and after their tag win (even house shows etc).

Edit: Sky Pirates are great value at this stage

Sky Pirates are a brilliant pick.

Much appreciated, I’ve left picking my female wrestlers a bit late but... wait a second I choose who goes next in the next round ha, and although flattery will get you everywhere I’ll probably just be picking whoever seems to be online when I make my pick so as to endure this round moves at s decent pace.

Speaking of picking, passed out last night when it came to my pick (my newborn has taken all my energy and brainpower) so will look to make my current pick soon. That said I’m at work and on my phone now, plus it’s the middle of the night there so will probably take my time as I don’t expect anyone will be waiting on me atm.

Congratulations on the new baby BH

Necro

Folks I'm going to be away for the next 24 hrs or so, is there anyone about I can PM my next pick to so as not to hold up the draft?

Fire away, chief.

Necro

Just PMed you there with my two options, cheers

Furious-Red

Ill have my pick up later today, just back from a friends stag so need a few hours :pac::pac:

beakerjoe

Have about 3 or 4 in mind for my next pick. So many names still available who I didnt think would last. Tempted to change a storyline or two up.

Looks like you’re online, if you can stay online for 5/10m (posting on my phone so taking a bit) you’ll be next!

Bounty Hunter

Will add a proper pic etc to that post later but considering I’ve waited until 2/3rds of the way into the draft for my first female pick I’m pretty pleased with being still able to get the quality of someone such as Shayna.

Actually had thoughts of pairing her with someone like Toyota so nice pick 2D

Nobody else seems to be online so in keeping with BH and keeping the selections moving...

whoever replies in this thread next can have the next pick.

To be honest, you'd have been the one I PMed as you're usually online but I didn't know what the story was after you saying you wouldn't be around for the 24 hours or so.

I thought a good ole Championship Scramble to decide the next pick would be best for business.

I had planned to pick her when I took Ventura but when I searched it didn't seem like she had been picked much in these drafts over the years so thought I'd get away with a couple of extra rounds. Apparently I didn't search well enough because when I re-searched after picking Haku I saw she has been selected loads and when it dawned on me you hadn't picked any women yet I thought "Uh-oh."

I suppose I have to thank the Wilder vs Fury fight for me being up and online :P And, of course, your fine self for making an excellent next pick choice.

ShagNastii

This part of the draft is the killer. In the first few rounds you can almost guess who’s going to go. People certainly go value & name over want.

Wide open now and it really is a game of chicken about picking somebody (a lesser talent) who you really want but who you might think could last a few rounds.

Lord TSC

Yeah, the last few picks have basically all been people I had on my shortlist.

Will get my pick up very shortly

Lord TSC

I'm 95% sure Bliss and *snip* aren't gone yet.

Necro

They're not, but they do fall foul of the 'World Champion' rule for tag teams which hasn't been lifted for the wimmens yet

Oh, I hadn’t realized it would be separated for the men and women like that.

Ok, I’ll pull one of the two now...
