Big Roguey Posted August 6, 2015 Share Posted August 6, 2015 DRAFT WILL START ON TUESDAY 11 AUGUST 2015 AT A TIME TO BE DECIDED BY THE END OF SUNDAY 9 AUGUST 2015 The Premise About a year and a half ago I ran a Thunderverse draft. At that point in time, it was Thunderverse Classic and Thunderverse ROTW. These mods have now combined and we have a full world to play with. SO, this is the second ANNUAL* THUNDERVERSE DRAFT!~ *Draft may not be annual The Rules 1. Use http://www.random.org/sform.html to assign a random order for promotions picking. 2. Once a pick is made, the next person has 2 hours to make his selection. We will use time stamps on the posts. Serpentine order so it's fair to everyone (well, fair in the sense that #1 doesn't always pick first. I can't be held accountable if you lose out on a worker based on your placement in the draft. ) [After round 20, this drops to an hour in between picks to help speed things along.] 3. Once the two hour time period elapses, and the next in line does not draft, then whoever is next in line can jump in and select. When you make your selection you are going to be required to copy and paste the draft board in your thread while making your post bold to stand out. 4. If someone is skipped for missing a selection, they can make their selection at anytime. 5. If you have been skipped three times then you will be automatically skipped for any future picks. If by five rounds after you've been put on the skip list (so 8 rounds) you'll be removed from the drafting pool and your promotion's roster will be made up by myself post-draft of the worst workers in the data. Unless they've all been drafted. ¬_¬ 6. If you submit a list to me, ranking wrestlers, and you are not online to make your pick, I will take the first person from that list who has not been selected for your pick (Granted that I am online to do so). Others may be able to fill this role as needed. 7. It's all written contracts in this folks. All promotions start at the lowest cult level as possible. It's up to you guys to draft a roster that can survive and grow. 8. Staff will count as part of your 40 draft picks. It is not required to draft staff (ie Referee's, Announcers, Managers, Road Agents, Colour Commentators, Personalities) but is encouraged to at least get the minimum so the game is playable right away. 10. Trades are allowed and actively encouraged. All workers are available to be traded in any way you see fit. Trades will not be completed unless all players involved have confirmed the trade to me, and if there is any doubt then my word is final. The best method would be via PM although the forum would be fine too. Once a trade is confirmed by both sides then it is final and cannot be undone. 11. In this draft you can pick workers from any area to join your promotion. Worker restrictions will be turned OFF. 12. Default Owners and Head Bookers from each promotion will be assigned by you from the roster of workers you have drafted if not already selected. 13. Doesn't fit what I have below. Thank god, I hate this number anyways. 14. Any company can have a touring schedule. 15. All the contract information is being set to the following guidelines: - Random Expiry date - Alignment set to default, whatever the worker is better at. - Gimmick set to databse default to match alignment. - Gimmick rating of Good - Momentum set to random This is pretty much what the default Thunderverse has for all it's workers too, so I can't imagine there will be any problems with that. If anyone wants (for whatever reason) to add Creative Control into any of their contracts, then you can. Though I can't imagine why you'd want to. 16. You can select anyone you have drafted to be your owner/booker when the time comes or when you draft them. 17. All title will begin with a default prestige level appropriate to their level. Main event titles will be set to 80 prestige, all midcard titles will be set to 50 prestige and all low level titles will be set to 20 prestige. 18. All events will be set to have a default event importance of "normal". All promotions are entitled to elevate the prestige of any 1 events by two levels (up to Highly Regarded) or any 2 events up by one level (up to Above Average). This can't be traded to other promotions. 19. The only workers not able to be drafted in the draft are dead workers. The Participants (Sign-ups end on 13/08/2015 at 1200 GMT) SIGN-UPS ENDED!!!

Stennick Posted August 6, 2015 Share Posted August 6, 2015 I loved the last draft it was maybe my favorite or second favorite draft I've ever been a part of. I had never ran Thunderverse before that time and used the draft to get familiar with not only its bigger stars but a lot of the lower level guys you draft near the end. I've wanted to run with the Platinum version but just haven't ventured into it yet so this seems like the perfect time.

Big Roguey Posted August 6, 2015 Author Share Posted August 6, 2015 Just a word of advice, I'd start drawing up a pretty substantial list just now(personally, I'm going for just over double so my list has like 80 - 100 people on it who I want to draft. That way I'm definitely covered against having any skipped picks! ) That way when the draft starts, if you're unable to get your pick in due to bad timing (a natural thing to happen, we've all got lives outside of da board) you'll still get your workers of choice.

Big Roguey Posted August 6, 2015 Author Share Posted August 6, 2015 Sorry if I've missed this. What happens to workers who are on hiatus? Can we bring them back? Thought I had this in the rules but apparently I don't. Glad it's been brought up now before the draft starts! In the spirit of just having fun, all workers are on the table except dead ones. Also, feel free to put where your promotion is based just now but you have right up until the official draft start to decide where your promotion is based. After that, you must have a homebase locked in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Roguey Posted August 7, 2015 Author Share Posted August 7, 2015 It's absolutely cracking to see this amount of takers! I've set a cap of 20 just now. So if we hit 20 before the sign-ups stop then I'll start the draft then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Markw Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 Just read the rules, I approve of the all written contracts, but I think it makes half of point 16 redundant?

I prefer just a straight draft without all of the "Promotion X gets $25million but Promotion Y gets 100% in all of Europe" shenanigans that mystery boxes tend to throw out.

Nah, I understand that completely man, it just means when it comes to draft time I'm going to have to work smart and fast. Hopefully someone joins Australia so we can have a war.
