wrestlingfan1 Posted February 5, 2010 Author Share Posted February 5, 2010 I think if we are looking for an end of month draft, bundle's will be too much effort to sort out. It would need testing to make sure nobody has an unfair advantage, it would be like making a mini-mod for a draft mod I think mystery boxes, albeit on a much smaller scale than some of the previous incernations, would be the best option for extras. But they should be limited to small affects. Again the time frame is arbitrary as well, its just when I would like to get things started, but am open to suggestions. We could go with boxes (as I've stated before this would require someone to step up and take over this portion as I have no idea what/how to do) or just a straight up draft (i.e. no boxes or bundles) I'm flexible and am willing to go with general consensus. EDIT: derek b your " floating " promotion has been added to the draft. I only say it like that since you mentioned that you might change some things later ( including moving to a whole new game area. ) Jaded I seen that your first pick is canada there is 1 spot remaining there, just throwing that out there.

I could set up the boxes some time next week, but obviously we need to ask the people what they want, so far only four people have posted in this thread.

wrestlingfan1 Posted February 5, 2010 Author Share Posted February 5, 2010 <p>Is that the reason why no one has signed up for Japan yet? LOL usually US and Japan are the first to be chosen now its not even on the radar, hmm....</p><p> </p><p> Also I'd have to agree a straight up draft would be best for now when the next one rolls around, whoever sets it up could take the time (perhaps even while this one going on) to set up bundles or boxes and build from there.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drmacbeth Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 So with the start date at January 2011, I'm assuming pre-existing injuries are reduced by 12 months (ie Yoshimi Mushashibo would only be out an additional 1 month, 3 weeks as opposed to 13 months, 3 weeks at the start of 2010).

wrestlingfan1 Posted February 6, 2010 Author Share Posted February 6, 2010 So with the start date at January 2011, I'm assuming pre-existing injuries are reduced by 12 months (ie Yoshimi Mushashibo would only be out an additional 1 month, 3 weeks as opposed to 13 months, 3 weeks at the start of 2010). I will reduce injuries as well however I the only two starting injuries I'm aware of are Madman Boone and after your post Yoshimi Mushashibo. If I find any others or if anyone knows who they are feel free to post so I can find them easier. Also the Database has been updated as well as the first post in the sign up thread. As a polite courtesy to me, I am going to politely request that any and all changes you make to your fed info be pm'ed to me (as well as changing it in the thread) that way i don't have to re-read the entire thread each time I go into it, to make sure nothing has changed. Thanks in advance for this. EDIT: For those of you who posted saying I'm going to take a fed in this region with no other info, and after the last draft I attempted to organize, you're spot was not reserved. Please don't take this as a personal attack on you its just so things don't turn out like the draft for 08. There are a few people who said they would be willing to change to a different region if someone would like to have a promotion in (insert region here), so you could always pm them or choose a different region. PPS: Found the starting injuries section of the editor and have reduced the injuries by a years time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wrestlingfan1 Posted February 6, 2010 Author Share Posted February 6, 2010 One more thing that I wanted to clarify, The +1 rule for a womens only fed is to be just that. Aside from staff (i.e Ref, RA, Announcer and Commentators) your active roster is locked in as Women only. This rule is non - negotiable! I don't want to sound like and A double S but I don't want people to abuse the rule just so they can work in a region that is maxed out. There are plenty of talented popular women for you to choose from. Meaning if you are running a womens fed and happen to wind up with the first pick, don't waste it by selecting Tommy Cornell, because it won't be entered into the data base and he will still be selectable.

wrestlingfan1 Posted February 6, 2010 Author Share Posted February 6, 2010 Everyone's promotion is currently added to the data base. ChrisKid: your product had one small error there was a missing 10% in your AI booking for the time being I simply added 5% to singles and 5% to tag, if you want something different let me know and I can change it. The-619: to make a draft list you simply type out a list of workers in the order you wish to draft them, depending on your region, the more you will want to have on your list. then you pm that list to either myself or someone else in the draft, or multiple people involved. A side note regarding this strategy^ , in the unlikely event that everyone on your list is drafted include a fail safe, either allowing the person to use their better judgment or just have your pick skipped until you can be online to make the pick yourself.

Alec_Burkhardt Posted February 6, 2010 Share Posted February 6, 2010 Also the Database has been updated as well as the first post in the sign up thread. I'm probably just missing it, but have you posted a link to the starting database for this draft? I know it is just the default moved forward one year, with all of the default promotions removed and workers as free agents, and I could do the work myself to remove everything, but if you have it done already, I'd like to have it for the draft. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks. Just a reminder... if you delete the existing promotions then all their linked stuff dies with them. Is best to just set them to debut forever away in the future in order to preserve lineages and tag teams and stuff like that... But I'm sure we all knew that. I'd also appreciate an early look at the draft data. Rather than make the changes myself I'd much rather just have a set with the changes made. I'm lazy like that.

Jaded Posted February 6, 2010 Share Posted February 6, 2010 What are we doing about TV/PPV deals, if there's no mystery boxes or bundles?
