In. How about everyone picks one wrestler as their world champ, one intercontinental, a tag team, picked separately, and one hardcore or cruiser?

Just to expand on this, here's what I would suggest:

1 World Champ level wrestler (has to have won a world title in one of the big promotions, NWA, WWE, WCW, New Japan)
1 Intercontinental level wrestler (cannot have won a world title as per above)
1 Tag Team (has to have won tag belts, not too bothered where - these two picks are done separately, so someone could pick Hawk and then have someone ruin his plan by picking Animal, but then the other guy would be screwed too)
1 Hardcore or Cruiser (should have been recognised as such at some point in their career, so Foley or Eddie would be fine, but Roman or HBK would be a no)
1 Manager or Female wrestler

6 picks in total and will be more like a traditional stable, where everyone has a level.  And if we mix things up with managers or female wrestlers, that gives everyone a bit more scope because there's only a few really top level managers available.

Maybe the group, led by your leadership, will see these drafts as PR functions and brilliant use of humor

Just do 14

Two groups of 4 and two of 3

Winners go through, semis then final. Sorted.

Are we actually having rules?  I think if you have to have a tag team they should be picked separately, just to see people sweat.

Yeah, probably best. Wait for Lawnmowerman to decide what rules and that and we can get going this afternoon.

Personally, I think we should keep it as free as possible. We need a good fun draft, too many rules could ruin it.

Not much to it, when it's your turn pick a wrestler that hasn't been picked yet.

I think we used to get up to 32 drafters in these. The more the better :)

I don't mind teaming up, keeps the numbers even.

Did we set a selection criteria or is it anyone and everyone? I saw one above about a world champ, IC, tag team etc.

Lawnmowerman is running it so we're waiting for him to arrive to see what the story is. I think he's keen on it being very liberal, with very few rules, which I think is a good idea.

Yeah, they used to be so popular that we had to get people to team up when we reached 32. A long time ago now :P

Thought about getting involved as not done a draft for a couple of years but doubt I'd have the time to commit properly so would just end up holding it up.

Will just keep an eye on it from the sidelines.

It's in the OP.

There's 18 people, but I'm not sure if XabiArt and Chakan are teaming up. If they are, there's 17 altogether.

I think XabiArt was happy to keep things even (number wise) so was happy to team up with you, but we have another participant now so I'd say just go ahead with XabiArt on his own.

If he wants to team up with you, he can, it's not a big deal, we'll just adjust the selection order.

I can't do the draw as I don't have screen capture, I can only copy and paste.
