I knew you'd have a "fish" in there...

2 hours 15 minutes - pretty good....

Good luck gents.... you will need it.

Anyone wanna run preliminary team scores based on seeds?

[lu_alum]

You can use the "My Wrestlers" feature in Track to follow the scoring for your team...

Alright, good draft!  Looking forward to the tournament, but would encourage you to consider hopping on the Zoom next year!  It made for some fun discussion (and smacktalk... @jajensen09, you probably didn't want to be there.  )

To address an earlier question, the payouts will be top 3 (to match the team trophies at NCAAs).  My proposed payout scale is

1st Place:  $180

2nd Place:  $100

3rd Place:  $20 (money back)

 

But I'm open to doing 2nd place $80, 3rd place $40 if you guys think that's better.

was a pleasure fellas thanks for having me

I don't feel too strongly about it, but I vote for this one - $180/$80/$40

I like your secondary option.

Mainly because I don't think 2nd should be more than half of first.

Perfect!  I download results after each session for the entire field and post updated standings.

Agree.

[VakAttack]

Sold, we'll pay out at $180, $80, and $40.

Potential for a lot of AAs with that line up

I got the two guys who pin the most, too.

Hoping for bonus if I don't get the placement.

I plugged my team into my proprietary scoring algorithm and came up with 156.5 team points.

Was that your draft board?  If so, you put a lot more planning into this than most of us (at least the guys on the Zoom call).  Very impressive work.

Haha thank you.  Once i realized we were starting the draft while on the plane, I grabbed the vomit bag from the back of the seat (unused of course) to jot down 12 or so guys from each weight that would be at the top to serve as my draft board. As I saw picks in this thread I would cross them out.  Not very sophisticated and I was with my two small children on the flight.  Still feel okay about my team

Small as in young, or are you a little person?

Asking for a friend.

As for me, I was always the shortest in my class growing up until I hit a growth spurt sophomore year of high school and ended up just shy of average.
