Hello everyone! I have been corresponding with Sly and KB with a proposal that I'm happy to say is now coming to life. I'd like to open an invitation to you all to participate in a WWE-based Fantasy Pool on Steel Cage Forums! The name of the game is drafting your team of WWE superstars and trying to score as many points as possible (based on wins, losses, championships etc) over a roughly three month period. Specifically, from the RAW after SummerSlam until Survivor Series. Over those three months, you'll be able to negotiate and trade with other players to better improve your fortunes. You'll even be able to trade with a free agent pool, so be prepared to snatch up that NXT call up!

Sly and KB have agreed to afford me a sub section in which I'll be able to properly manage the game and your respective rosters. As we get closer to launch, that sub section will open up and we will begin the official Draft of this inaugural season. I want to be up front with any potential participants; This draft could be somewhat tedious. Over the two week draft period from August 5th through 19th, participants will be encouraged to check SCF at least once a day to help make the draft pass as expediently as possible. Measures have been planned to allow the game to continue should someone fail to draft a superstar at the appropriate time, but I'd love to avoid that.

After that arduous process is taken care of, the game will be smooth sailing! Watch RAW and Smackdown with baited breath in hopes your roster banks big points for you as negotiate (and quietly scheme) your next trades in hope to dump a dud for a blue chip star, all the while watch that deadline of Survivor Series come closer and closer.

That being said, who would be interested in participating? We will need at least 10 players, but I'd love to max this out at 18. First come, first served!

Let me know if you have any questions, I'll address them later this evening.

We're getting close to the minimum. If we don't get 18 players the I will also be participating. Game will be managed transparently anyway, so I won't be getting away with anything ;)

I hope my planned system is accomodating. When it's a players turn in the draft, they'll have a full day to make their pick. During the game itself, there are weekly trade windows that last from Wednesday to Saturday. When the game rules are shared, please let me know if there arw any other measures you suggest that will help you and others who are on the other side of Earth.

Nope. Just sent a few PMs to people I thought might be interested. If you replied that you want in, you're in. More news very soon.

Hoping that the opening of the subsection leads to a last little surge of participants. Six spots remain, friends!

I've done some bad math. Originally I thought 18 players with 5 stars each would leave a healthy sized free agent pool, but currently the main roster free agents are pretty shallow once everyone has drafted. I am restricting sign up from 18 to 14 spots. That means 2 spots remain (which includes the possibility of me forfeiting my spot, which I do gladly so don't hesitate). Otherwise thread closes tomorrow at 8PM EST.

That means we are down to ONE last spot! The mystery opponent! The equivalent to our #30 in a Royal Rumble! Who's All In?

#14?

And so ends registration! Thanks to everyone who signed up. If you missed the deadline, I hope you can make it to next season!
