You should be familiar with the following information as it’s been posted in other topics, but it bares repeating in this thread.

Roster Requirements (UPDATED August 2nd)

Click for Spoiler:

Every player will have a roster of Five Superstars. Your team must have at least two superstars from RAW and two superstars from Smackdown Live. Within those four, your roster must have at least one female superstar. You cannot have more than two female superstars. We are only drafting Individual Talents, so don’t show up in the Draft and try to claim “New Day” as one pick.

Your fifth superstar may be anyone from Raw or Smackdown, male or female, or from elsewhere in the WWE or elsewhere in the wrestling world. The talent pool includes select superstars who are not assigned to a specific brand such as John Cena, Triple H, Undertaker etc. The pool also includes NXT, NXT UK, the Cruiserweights, etc, but is not limited to the listed names, either. Are you expecting Cena back sometime soon? Do you want to gamble on a rumoured NXT call up? Think Kenny Omega is coming to WWE and heading straight to Smackdown? That’s your gamble, but keep in mind that points are only awarded in matches from the shows listed in the Goal & Scoring System section.

In the event of a superstar changing brands on television, the player who holds that superstar will have one week to resolve their roster and make sure that they meet the roster requirements. They can do so through trade with another player or with the Free Agent pool. Failure to do so will result in a 7-Point Penalty for every week that they don’t meet the roster requirements.

If you have been respecting the roster requirements and a talent switches brands during the draft, you will be granted a grace period of one week to resolve your roster before you begin to incur penalties

Draft Rules

Click for Spoiler:

During the draft, we ask players be as diligent as they can in checking the forums so not to miss their turn and ensure an expedient draft process.

You’ll all be assigned a number in the Draft thread. Draft order is top to bottom and then bottom to top, repeated until all players have filled their Five Superstar Rosters.

ie
First Pick: Fallout
Second pick: Dave
.
.
.
Thirteenth pick: ShinChan
Fourteenth pick: Stone Cold Tea
Fifteenth pick: Stone Cold Tea
Sixteenth pick: ShinChan
.
.
25th pick: Dave
26th pick: Fallout
27th pick: Fallout
28th pick: Dave
.
and so on.

When the player before you has made their pick, you have 24 hours to make your pick(s) before the next player gets to choose. You will not have another chance to draft a superstar until your next turn. The draft will continue for extra rounds for those who have missed spot(s).

You will not be policed by management during the draft itself, so YOU are responsible for making sure that you’re meeting the requirements listed in the Rosters section of this guide! Failure to do so will result in a 5 point penalty at draft’s end! Don’t start the game with -5 Points! Continued failure will be a 7 point penalty per week.

IN THE EVENT of an UNFINISHED DRAFT
If RAW on August 20th begins and we have any rounds left in the draft, the game will commence but with a temporary revision. If, for example, we have only completely finished the third round of drafting with some players already making their fourth round picks, then we will temporarily “suspend” those fourth round picks (they will still be officially drafted but won’t be gathering points), and everyone will be playing the first week(s) of the game with their first three round picks. If you are missing superstars due to you missing your draft, then you will be starting the game with less superstars than other players.

Rosters at the top of the Draft thread will be updated as quickly as possible as players make their picks. Try and keep an eye on the last few draft picks when consulting the pool.

Does the timer for the next pick start immediately after each pick is made?

Does the timer for the next pick start immediately after each pick is made?

Yes, a player's 24 hours begin once the previous player has drafted. Fallout picked at 12:15, so Dave has until 12:15 tonight.

[Dave]

My first pick is Braun Strowman.

[Skairipa]

I'll take Seth Rollins

[#AbsoluteUnit]

^ You Suck.

I guess I'll take someone phenomenal = AJ Styles

[BestSportsEntertainer]

I'll pick Bobby Lashley

[Yaz]

I already bitched at Matrix for taking Seth. Since scoring doesn't start until post SummerSlam, I am gonna take my boy D Bry.

Got to rep my city with draft pick number one. So it was a long internal debate between Maryse and my final decision;
