<p>I looked in the hype thread for Ayden's shortlist and didn't see that he posted it in the actual draft thread.</p><p> </p><p>

For the future make sure to post the shortlist in the hype thread, it makes my life a whole lot easier <img alt="" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/redface.png.900245280682ef18c5d82399a93c5827.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p>

KnowYourEnemy · January 11, 2017

<p>I'm about to post my next two picks -- Tardelli is on the clock again, and it's unlikely he's picking either -- so he'll go back on the clock for pick two. </p><p> </p><p>

Right now, his "clock" runs out in a few. </p><p> </p><p>

I'm going to be afk for 4 or 5 after that, I'll post when I return.</p>

Should we be picking Bart Gunn for AydenReid?</p>

ACCBiggz · January 12, 2017

<p>That's the most recent post from AydenReid, and he was the top available person.</p><p> </p><p>

So, yeah.</p>

LucianCarter · January 12, 2017

When we get to the PPA rounds, can we share workers? Or is bidding still exclusive for the entire draft?

If Tardelli times out [6:18 AM], I'll go ahead and post my two picks -- he's on the clock again after that. I don't think anyone I pick will be on his radar (I'm going to go by my shortlist again) -- given that they don't have pop in Europe or UK. </p><p> </p><p>

If you were planning on picking Rey or Otani, send me a PM and I'll slot in someone else.</p>

PCG has announced that Shinjiro Otani will be the #1 Contender to the Young Lion Championship. Current Champ Chris Jericho was unimpressed.</p><p> </p><p>

"Who is this man, Otani? The fans showed up to see me -- showmanship! Ability! Athleticism!" </p><p> </p><p>

Jushin Thunder Liger did not comment on the situation.</p>

<p>Should we do both of uncrewed's next two picks from his list, allowing me to post mine as well?</p><p> </p><p>

Or we do one of his picks and wait on the second?</p><p> </p><p>

Or we give him 20 minutes?</p>

LucianCarter · January 12, 2017

BBW and PCG today signed a non-aggression pact. Although the companies are based in different markets, there are still some wrestlers they might wish to poach from the other. This display of mutual respect shows the companies do not wish to go to war.

LucianCarter · January 12, 2017

<p>Shouldn't uncrewed only be on the clock from one hour after the previous drafter was skipped? </p><p> </p><p>

I am about to head out, my list is above.</p>
