... after that draft, I'd advise you not to say what I should and shouldn't do at this point, otherwise you might find worse things than Suppan being on your team at this point. Got that? Well, you may want to talk to your fellow people in the draft since everyone whined bitched and moaned about me taking my time to do this up: I lost the taken list (permenetly) and I had to take off the list of who had what for teams so that I could "speed up" (which might I add, will have to be done from SCRATCH). So I had no idea what you needed, and just went with Yahoo rankings and what I thought might be what you needed. Yes, that means I bullshited and hoped for the best. Did it work? Obviously not. This was another reason I asked if you were to leave or not attend give me lists. So I can could at least contain the bullshiting to reasonable levels. Is this an excuse for making mistakes? No. But dammit, when I've got nothing to fucking work with, my job becomes a lot fucking harder, don't you think? And as you can tell, I'm absolutely pissed, so I'll cut out before I snap. ...considering you bastards would enjoy that. Btw, the draft isn't going to be inputed till this date: March 27th.

Lighting Flik selects: Miguel Olivo

Likely? Doubtful actually.

The chat room is now officially up. But we don't start the draft for another half hour guys, so please be patient. Will start adding people.

Yes STR, live draft at 7:30 pm EST. Was worried you wouldn't be able to make it.

Ok, now you might notice something a little different on the front page where rosters are. You know, its the "Round # 2006 Draft Pick". I'd like to remind everyone that they've got those picks to trade with. So if you really want to make a deal you can trade picks along with players. Trading picks must include a pick and a player on both sides. So you can't trade for just a pick, or just include a pick for a trade. Meaning you need to do this: Trade Player A and Pick A(Round 2) For Trade Player B and Pick B(Round 4) Just for clarification on how that works. This has also been added to the first post so as to always be there.

Thanks Vern. I've gotten lists from two people now (not Vern yet, so if he sent that would be 3). So so far, I have 12 people attending, 3 people on auto draft, 2 people who have sent me lists, and 1 person who may send a list or attend. Not bad. Hopefully this draft will be entertaining for everyone.

;; Dammit... Didn't see him. Bah, I need my coffee first thing in the morning before I start posting. Geezus. Um, yeah. Trading him would be a good thing.

Room will be called "TSM Finish Draft". That's sans the "" btw.

From the sounds of it, someone's getting a World or WWE Title shot here soon.

It says on the first page "7:30PM EST" today.

LT, Johnson is Randy Johnson of the Yanks. Even if he's past his prime, there's still very few pitchers that are as good as he is.

Rough estimate of 12 people attending the draft, with 5 slated for autodraft, and one who actually sent me a list to work with. BTW, draft will happen today, so even if I'm autoing 12 of you, I'm still getting this done today.

Pretty much Dama. And we'll have to wait on the verdict from the AHL team in Buffalo to find out if its a success or not. Although, I would die laughing if some team used neon pink for their ice rink. That would be hilarious. Although, the only two teams I can think of using neon pink are Hurricanes or Coyotes.

Would you prefer the following colours to orange then: Pink Green Yellow Silver Because those would be your only options for new zone lines. As for the centre line being a dark blue, that's just stupid.

Interesting concept to have different ice colours, and I can't honestly say that the light blue is a bad concept. That orange however would take time to getting used to.

To end the round, since Ratings is in Vegas right now: He selects Brandon Webb. Also, see you guys on Sunday, March 13 at 7:30pm EST. If you aren't there please read the first post for instructions on what to do. Oh and for those of you going its 8 keepers. That's a little much, maybe a little less? Its 8. So hopefully you have 8 great players that you are willing to redraft on your team.

Well, I understand if the law states a limit at like 15, I can see that. But a limit at 5? So that means like you can only own like 5 goldfish? That's awfully silly. Honestly, I understand owning to many pets can be a problem, but a restriction at 5 is a little too much of a restriction.

*salvates* This looks like its going to be awesome! Can't wait for it. Although, I wonder if this will be connected to Wind Waker in anyway?

Mine does. That's an awfully stupid thing. I've never even knew there WAS such a thing till this.

Round 5 to 16 will be continued on Sunday. We'll complete Round 4 (which is still ongoing) before Sunday. And I say 5 to 16 as I'd rather get the whole thing done than have to deal with having to be back in here dealing with picks after that AIM draft.

First of all, what town/city has a limit on pets? Second of all, if it wasn't Hulk Hogan, would this really be an issue? I highly doubt it. Third of all, why do I see a return of Hogan to the WWE using this as a storyline to make him a heel or something?

A majority needed is 3/4ths of the people in our draft. Get me 1 more person agreeing and we'll do it this Sunday at 7:30 pm EST. EST is the right time zone we talking about, right? Oh, and stuff is updated.

No we won't be done before the start of April. To accomplish that objective we need to be making at least 11 picks a day. However, currently as of today, we've only made: 66 picks in 7 days. That's a pick amount of 9.4. Let's drop that to 9 as it is nearly the standard lately. If I project that pick total divided by 9 picks a day, we get: 24.6 which is 25. We'd be done by April 4th. Not in time for the season at all. To get to April 1st (as April 2nd is when I can't submit rosters), we'd need at least 3 extra picks made a day from here on out. Now I don't know about you, but we're lucky to get half a round done, I can't see us shooting for full rounds, do you? I can agree to 7pm on Sunday, but if we can get more people on another day, I'm fine with that too. I just wanted it Sunday because that's the safest time for myself but whatever works for everyone works for me. And that other thing that was going to be announced was that keepers have been increased to 8. Simply, fast, and easy to explain. Enjoy your four extra keepers and make sure you think about which 8 players you wish to keep after this season. Mega dittos +1 Addage...

Ok, if we are to do an AIM chat this is how it'll be done - There will be an AIM chat held this Sunday at approximately around 3pm EST (time may change so we can get more people to the draft). If you can not attend the draft, please make a list of minimum 25 player to a maximum of 50 players you wish to take. I would recommend you going with closer to the 50 since there's like still 12 rounds left. I'm going to find someone to play the "neutral party" but no guarentees. If not, I'll just do what I can even if I have to create my own list and do it that way. Should you not have a list done up, and can not attend the draft, picks will be autopicked for the best available player at whatever given position is still needed on their rosters. As an example say there's like Bonds(1), A-Rod(18), and Halladay(6) left, and HarleyQuinn needs a SP and C, then Halladay will be selected over the other two. As Halladay is ranked higher (just sue me if he's not really, for arguement's sake he is, ok?). This is how the draft would be done if we switch to AIM chat. There will be one last thing I need to announce, but that'll be announced once the draft is complete. 13 - Bravesfan 14 - Rebels of Oakland 15 - Will Scarlet Are currently up.
