Lightning Flik

Like the Basketball Draft? ...that was just too messed up.

You should tell him that Tom went all Scott Keith on us and banned half the board for disagreeing with him. Tell Dames I was the first one to go in Tom's "Scott Keith Rage". If that doesn't make him believe, I don't know what would.

*sighs* FINE~! You picky, picky people. Consider batting categories changed to what HarleyQuinn has suggested. Pitching is staying as is. Oh, and I'm not about to let people who were lazy get a good shot at redemption. SO... DRAFT IS STRAIGHT, NOT SERPENTINE~! Trust me, some people make some bad choices, so you will get some good players no matter what. Anyone from my fantasy basketball league can tell you this as people will pick according to how they wish to play or feel is reasonable for them. That said here's what I've got for the draft order so far: 01) Pocono Poison - alkeiper 02) 1000% Guapos - razazteca 03) Rebels of Oakland - Bored 04) Crimson Storm - Lightning Flik 05) Whalers on the Moon - the pinjockey 06) NuclearSledgehammers - MarvinisaLunatic 07) Gotham Harlequins - HarleyQuinn 08) Warts Whackos - Wart (...I have no idea who this is, newbie I guess) 09) Pawtucket Red Sox - Cartman 10) Brockvegas Posse - treble charged 11) EL KABONG~! Slapnuts - Slapnuts! 12) The Worst Team - Cuban Linx 13) Fear the Slayers - Sandman9000 14) Vacant 15) Vacant 16) Vacant Finally, to those 3 managers who haven't given me all of what I requested, please send me your AIM and Team Name for you to be added to the list. And whoever the heck is Small Red Machine, don't you DARE drop. We've got 16 teams and you drop, you'll screw us up.

They are all different stats. Not one of them are duplicates. They may use a stat to produce another but they are not the same. How the hell is singles and hits unneccesary? One is for how many singles you can hit, the other is how many times you hit! Batting Average is calculated via a formula that uses hits in it. ERA is the exact same when it comes to ERs. Strikeouts are counted in batting average yes, but to calculate the BA; this doesn't mean that the stat itself is excusable, just because it is used to caculate something. And load them? Excuse me? I didn't have a ton when we did the NBA Fantasy League. A modest 13 wasn't bad. Which then ended down to 8.

Being that I'm first, I should keep my mouth shut, but aren't people who are lazy MORE likely to sit at the computer all day? If we had done this on a Thursday night into Friday, I'd be screwed. Then that would've been the "natural" reaction. So really, you can't say anything. Besides, I could just do the hat deal. Then you might be dead last. Then again, that's not that bad of a thing. Although, I'm kinda not sure if it's going to be Serpentine or not. I'm actually now wondering if I should truly make those people who didn't hand in their stuff early feel it. That said here's what I've got for the draft order so far: 01) Pocono Poison - alkeiper 02) 1000% Guapos - razazteca 03) Rebels of Oakland - Bored 04) Crimson Storm - Lightning Flik 05) Whalers on the Moon - the pinjockey 06) NuclearSledgehammers - MarvinisaLunatic 07) Gotham Harlequins - HarleyQuinn 08) Warts Whackos - Wart (...I have no idea who this is, newbie I guess) 09) Pawtucket Red Sox - Cartman 10) Brockvegas Posse - treble charged 11) EL KABONG~! Slapnuts - Slapnuts! 12) The Worst Team - Cuban Linx 13) Vacant 14) Vacant 15) Vacant 16) Vacant Finally, to those 4 managers who haven't given me all of what I requested, please send me your AIM and Team Name for you to be added to the list.

Ok... I just want to let everyone know something. ...I lied. I'm sorry, but I wanted to let you people know this straight up and I apologize ahead of time. What did I lie about? Well, for instance, I had the draft order done up totally different than what I said... Sorta. If you had your thing into me, I added you to a list, directly as is. So if you sent your PM into me, you'd automatically got ranked. At a certain time, if I didn't get anyone at that exact time, I would add myself to the draft order and then people would follow. That was my whole plan at the time. Reason I didn't say anything of the sort, was to get a more natural reponse and to make people pay up for being lazy. That said here's what I've got for the draft order so far: 01) Pocono Poison - alkeiper 02) 1000% Guapos - razazteca 03) Rebels of Oakland - Bored 04) Crimson Storm - Lightning Flik 05) Whalers on the Moon - the pinjockey 06) NuclearSledgehammers - MarvinisaLunatic 07) Gotham Harlequins - HarleyQuinn 08) Warts Whackos - Wart (...I have no idea who this is, newbie I guess) 09) Pawtucket Red Sox - Cartman 10) Brockvegas Posse - treble charged 11) EL KABONG~! Slapnuts - Slapnuts! 12) Vacant 13) Vacant 14) Vacant 15) Vacant 16) Vacant ...Vern as I mentioned in PM, I need your Team Name and AIM Name, otherwise, you aren't added to the listing. And in a PM, not in here. Finally, to those 5 managers (that's including you Vern) who haven't given me all of what I requested, please send me your AIM and Team Name for you to be added to the list.

One last thing I wanted to mention. Although the league has only 16 teams, I do have four positions still available should anyone who really wants to join, can join. I don't want to make it seem like I'm not willing to let others who wanted to join, but didn't because of a situation, not able to. It doesn't matter if you make the amount of teams odd or even, it'll still work out in the end for the draft. For some reason this was different with the NBA draft, but not for the MLB draft. AND I NEED THIS INFO FROM EVERYONE BEFORE 3PM EST TOMORROW~!

...you totally haven't read my diaries, have you? If so, you know that this, answers your question. Logic dictates a serpentine draft. With that out of my way, SEND IN THAT INFO I WANT FROM YOU~!

Is that even a review? That's more like a personal opinion. That's absolutely bullshit. *reads it fully* ...he never played it. I'm sorry, but there is NO way he could've devoted any time or effort to this game if he had. That is absolutely horrible.

Actually, he WAS unknown for the most part till this started up. Most cult fans didn't really know much about Teddy Hart. He wasn't really even looked upon more closely till this incident. I mean, yes, we knew about him with WWE and the fallout thereafter, but it wasn't long after that that suddenly he became better known. And that was last year.

Since people might let a good player go till the fifth round (as was with the NBA league) this one is straight. And no one complain, I had already stated as much in my very first post (of this thread) *reads first post* You did? It was supposed originally supposed to be live. Hence it would be straight up. So see? I was telling the truth. *even out of EWR, logic truly escapes me*

*coughbullshitcoughwithcoughthiscoughleaguecough* Ahem. As I was saying through my absurd joke, we can still run with 15 if we've only got fifteen, so worries. Uh... The draft is Monday (maybe, as something might come up and I might be away, and since I'm plugging this stuff in, I'm making sure I'm there for this draft). Why should we worry about the "live draft" thingy then? I'll fix it when we get to that point. *goes and fixes it* Yes. Monday during RAW. (might be changed, but I doubt it). Draft order will be officially up tomorrow. Since people might let a good player go till the fifth round (as was with the NBA league) this one is straight. And no one complain, I had already stated as much in my very first post (of this thread). You didn't have to, but appreciated. The order will be whoever does as I requested, like the below. People who are participating in the draft, send a PM (as in Private Message on TSM) to myself with your AIM name and Team Name (that way I'm not looking for it in here). I will then place your Team Name in a bowl or something and pull it out. I will then post up the draft order here tomorrow at like 3pm EST (that's noon MST, hence why I'm doing that). So if I don't get anyone's AIM and Team Name, you will then be placed after those who's names I've pulled out of a hat, in the order that those people finally notify me (via PM) that they aren't on the draft order. Oh and to those that forget, I won't place you on the draft order until I get both your AIM and Team Name. If you only produce one of the two, you won't be placed on the draft order. And should anyone forget to do so? You'll be placed dead last. Deal? Deal.

I don't have a lot of games left Raza. I doubt I'll even make it close *prays to god I do*. However, if, and I mean a BIG if, I win enough games from now till Week 20, and I'm in the playoffs, some people are going to get fucked up. And that's me counting if I get Carter back by then. I've got a lot of my players playing as soon as this week ends. I've got a good shot at winning the lower six playoffs.

Hm... I'll have to consider that... *ponders the ideas of Ahmed Johnson and Larry Zybysko with Creative Control*

Nah... I was bound to lose to you Guerrero. It was fun though.

Instead of you guys typing up your AIM names on here, just inform me via mine, Dagual00 with an IM, and I'll hook you up to the draft Chat.

Because I get a draft time that leaves it pretty out there for a lot of people, as it is during the "work hours". Even I'm not sure if I'd make a day time. Hence why it'll be an "offline" draft, but held within a chat room. ...and as I said, I can't get a official "online" draft going. Hence why we'll be in an AIM chatroom, doing the EXACT same thing as we normally would be. Except it'll just be told in the chat. I'll copy write it down on a sheet of paper (post up the summary for each round in a post in this thread), and when we are finished, I'll post up the final results in the computer online. As for doing it this Monday, I can agree with that since the feeling is Monday's during RAW is fine. So at 6:30 EST everyone should probably be on AIM (the 15 involved) and I'll post up the "who gets what position in the draft" at that time. That sound cool to everyone then?

What on this list sounds the most reasonable to you guys? During Raw (6pm PST, 9pm EST) During Smackdown (6pm PST, 9pm EST - I'm talking American, for those Canadians wondering) Saturdays - 1pm PST, 4pm EST Sundays - 1pm PST, 4pm EST Saturdays - 4pm PST, 7pm EST Sundays - 4pm PST, 7pm EST

WE ARE HAVING AN OFFLINE DRAFT~! Now before you all get your collective panties in a bunch, this offline draft will be held in an AIM chatroom at a certain time or place. As long as I can get two thirds of the majority to agree on a date and time, that will then be the selected date for the draft. During that AIM Chatroom Draft, each manager will be given two full minutes when it is their turn to select a pick on whom that person will be. The Commish will then ask if that is their correct pick (by repeating said pick). There will then be a brief discussion (as those things tend to happen) about the pick, and then The Commish will announce whomever is on the clock. If you don't select a pick within two minutes, the NEXT person will then jump the que and will get a shot at making a pick. The person who did not pick will then get a second chance after the que jumper at making a pick within a minute. Failure to get a pick a second time will null and void your pick for that round. Your voided pick will not be available to you till the end of the draft. After each round is completed, a round summary will be posted up. Yes, this means you actually will have to remember who is picked so far that round, because The Commish is not about to tell you during a middle of a round. Also check back at the last post in this thread, as that will usually have the draft results (all rounds will be posted for summaries). At the end of each round, there will be a pause of at least five to ten minutes (I'm not sure how long I want the break to be, as this will be for 20+ rounds) for people to set up strategy for the next round. This draft will probably be broken up over a period of 4 days. Each day will be a round of five players drafted. This way, people have a good idea of whom to choose. That said, we should be good to go. I just want ONE day we can agree upon for the first five rounds. From there, I will select three more dates for the other 15 rounds. Should anyone not be present for the selected round, please have a list of players you would like (auto-pick, except I'll go by listing). Have at least 15 players on that listing. That should cover the plans I have for the draft. Now then, can we please at least agree on the starting date?

June 2nd, 2004 World Wrestling Entertainment have apparently managed to smooth things over with D’Lo Brown as rumors have it that D’Lo was recently resigned by the big guys. Here’s hoping that D’Lo gets a second chance at proving he has what it takes to be something for the WWE. In a recent turn of events that shall shock the wrestling world to its core, TNA has managed to sign Bret Hart to a contract. It is not known when he shall first appear on their programming, but you can bet that this will only make TNA look better in their push to become the #1 federation in the world. IWA-PR has managed to sign Low-Ki to a date or three. Should be interesting to see what Low-Ki will bring to their product. And finally, UCW managed to get a 0.98 on the Neilson Rating scale. Pretty decent show overall. Here’s hoping this can only get better. +++ June 2nd, 2004

But you could take the return of the "Brood" Edge further and have him admit that he's mad at the world because he never found out exactly who the hell it was that attacked him, so he's justifily (although insanely) going to continually go after people on Smackdown till he finds out who. ...this is of course, when Triple H will admit that it was him all along. Hence, Edge must get his hands on Triple H and so Edge stalks Triple H till he can get his hands on him. Or until he gets traded. Something like that.

*laughs* Touche. Same could be said for Payne as well. And yes, I know that SWFer means the same nowadays, but to me, it never will. I never was the SJL World Champion you know. I'd never be able to live that down. Besides I doubt I'd have the same high asperations of old anyways. I can not write up a 3000 word match if my life depended on it. Hell, I doubt I could write up a 1000+. And at least have it makes sense. I'd make it non-sensical past 1000 words and it wouldn't make it past any judge no matter how bad the other person is (unless they no-showed, I'd win then). And yes, THE ELK was the greatest gimmick solution for no-shows. Sadly, he never made an appearance for one of my no-shows.

The last line was meaning you'd tell us straight up and not bullshit us. I honestly thought you'd have got it plain as day. Apparently not. No loss. I was just joking around with my post, and I seem to have failed in getting my humor across. *sighs*

Ahem... There are a few Ex-SJLers-Only. I never made it to SWF, so I'm not an ex-SWFer. Just ex-SJLer. And I have been seen. Everywhere else but SWF. I don't really like to come back, as I'm a little uneasy of doing so... Besides, I'm not sure if people would care for me being around, so I usually stay away. About the only thing I know I contributed that was good, was my commentary. That's about all that was good about my matches, or so I was told (and so I thought). Also, did anyone find it weird how Payne and I were going "YAH~! OUR FEUD IS GOING TO ROCK THE SJL TO THE CORE!" (I believe that was my wording and I do remember I wrote the damn thing in caps) and in the end, both of us left the feud unresolved and left pretty much right after it started? Damn, that was sad. Think it was right after RSR broke up... I'd also like to know just how many times had Payne return to the JL? I think out of all the JLers to do the leave and return, he had the highest (I think) amount. Actually, I can't remember. Was the battle royale my first match? I could've sworn I was around at least a whole month and tossed into the battle royale with a shot at the Television Champion (I lost the match against the Champion, I remember that much, I had my ass handed to me match writing wise).
