Should we draft organization names, or just claim them?

I am for sure in. I am looking forward to writing with the old gang. I missed it. My fault it has been this long, but still missed it.

Kimmel is the boss so I’ll defer to him on how we pick promotions.
Good to see there’s interest!

I still have everything from when we launched wrestlewars. It would take minutes for me to get it together.
I personally think we should draft promotions with maybe the champions they had with them if we are using standing promotions. Hell we could do that tomorrow night if people want

I’m good with the territory draft and keeping the champions.

I’d like to draft promotions before the actual draft if that’s possible. Even if it’s a ongoing draft on a thread.

That’s sounds like a good plan. You can put some thought into the wrestling draft.

Agreed.

I plan to likely pick a promotion that didn’t exist yet. I think the idea is you get to keep some of champions if you draft a real promotion - champs as of 1/1/93.
If I do draft a promotion that didn’t exist in 1993, I have no issue going into the draft with a totally blank slate.
Kimmel may have a better idea but my first thought was everyone gets 40 spots. You can use them however you want but it’s 40 spots total for:
Male Wrestlers
Female Wrestlers
Managers
Promoter / Staff
Announcers
Referees
It’s kind of hardcore but it’s a good challenge IMO. Just my idea!

I was already looking at promotions that were operational in 93. There are a few I am looking at.

I listed several on the first page. Many of them I don’t know anything about.

So are we not drafting territories tonight?

It probably might be better to draft after the holiday. Next weekend might be ideal and give more time.

I have been inundated with information about the 90s that I need to process and go through so this is what we are going to do.
On Monday a new board will go up for this project. Next Friday we will draft territories, next Sunday we will have a marathon draft to fill the rosters. I need everyone who wants to take part to tell me by Monday at noon, eastern time. Monday at 2 eastern time I will put up the draft orders.
Friday night we will draft territories. Sunday around noon we will start the marathon draft for wrestlers. The reason for the day delay is to give people time to make a list etc.
Final roster numbers etc will be done by Wednesday
