    No, no draft for me again, but if MNG will have me, I have some delicious stips in mind for the 2011 draft.

    I have put toghether my perfect roster in the 2009 version. It would feel like I was cheating on it.

    Plus I do not have an imaginative thought since I turned another decade...

    Same here. And like last year I was planning to give it a miss this time because of all the time it takes up but the closer it the more I'm making plans.

    On that note, does anyone remember if the celeb picks were limited the same as the wrestlers, having to have appeared after 1970 or is any celeb ok as long as they appeared in the allowed promotions? I'm looking back but I don't see anything about a date limit for them.

    Sounds good. I thought this year's one had some great stips and raised the bar. Big challenge to raise it some more but I'm sure it's possible. That Pingu special round thingy might be worth bringing back too as I recall it turned out very well.

    Going from memory I'm not sure if there was a time limit for that.

    I like the fact that, due to WWE turning towards youth with the likes of Nexus and other NXT guys and girls, it opens up a lot more potential picks in the game. Sure maybe finally we will see a non-Munster winner in 2011? :cool:

    Sue me. I've only been here a few weeks and never looked at the topic. Even looking at it, I'm still confused. I get people make their picks (do you have to sign up somewhere in advance?) but how is a winner chosen?

    Theres 20 rounds so everyone ends up with a roster. They then have to write up the details of PPV using their rosters and usually doa few weeks of TV show write ups to help build the feuds. At the end the participants then vote for their top 3, whoever gets the most votes wins.

    Basically there are 20 people, and 15 rounds. A draw is done at the start of each round for the order of picks etc.

    A winner is chosen by votes. Every participant votes their top 3 after a few shows and PPVs are written.

    This is the thread of draft season 3.

    Just so it is clear - THIS IS NOT THE ENTRY THREAD. THAT WILL COME SOON, AND IT IS FIRST COME FIRST SERVED, APART FROM THE FORMER WINNERS AND ORGANISERS.

    Seriously, just peruse the thread above.

    You choose your roster. You write your shows and PPVs

    AH ok. I get it now. I was looking through the rules but I wasn't getting the whole bit about you writing your own shows and all that.
