* * * Draft order has been posted. Please refer to the next post. * * *

The 2009 Team Tournament Draft will be conducted in this topic. The draft order has been processed and is currently under lock and key. Only one person knows the draft order, and it will remain secret until Wednesday morning. In the meantime, here are a few points to keep in mind.

Important dates and deadlines:
• Tuesday, June 9 at midnight HG time is the deadline for signing up for the draft
• The draft will commence on Wednesday, June 10.
• Monday, June 22 is when the 2009 Team Tournament will officially commence
• Season schedules will be made before the 22nd but only after the draft has ended

How draft selection works:
Captains, once Wednesday rolls around, be sure to check this topic often! The draft kicks off as soon as the draft order is revealed, so we don’t want to have to wait days for you to make your pick if it can be avoided. The draft order must be followed. In other words, the guy with the #2 pick can’t go ahead of the guy with the #1.

To make a selection, just post your pick in this topic. And please, for the love of God, make sure you don’t draft someone who has already been drafted or isn’t signed up for the draft. Let’s try to make the draft fast so we can get on to scheduling and, eventually, competing.

If there are any questions, either from captains or draftees, please ask them now.

I don't have to boost my review resume because I have a real resume.

I HAVE A QUESTION!!!

Can I be a Commissioner/Captain, too? I like fancy titles!



Either way, people, two of you will be lucky enough to serve me throughout the summer. Yes, I feel great things will be in the future for Overdrive, Lackey #1 and Lackey #2. TEAM ENIGMATIC CHAOS shall prevail!

And, yes, I have decided our name will be TEAM ENIGMATIC CHAOS. Unless I change my mind, which I likely will about 17 times during the course of the season.

Viva la muerte, that's my goddamn principle

Damn. The number of draftees was perfect until Beli had to come in and ruin everything! This draft will suck for precisely one person.

You exist because we allow it. And you will end because we demand it.

Can't have one person ruin things all on his own. I'm in, too.

OD, you should change your name from Rob to Morgan so we can call you Captain Morgan Overdrive.

Sashanan has entered as a draftee hopeful!!

I don't have to boost my review resume because I have a real resume.

let's take bets, who's dumb enough to go for Mister E?

Oh no, it's a Goomba!

Yes, let's!

I would especially recommend you do!

I might be! It sounds like just the sort of crazy thing TEAM ENIGMATIC CHAOS would do!

Then again, if it sounds like the sort of crazy thing TEAM ENIGMATIC CHAOS would do, I might not do so in order to show off the sort of enigmatic chaotic thinking TEAM ENIGMATIC CHAOS has long been known for.

I hereby name myself Captain of the JUDGE TEAM! We are the KINGMAKERS!

I can avoid death by not having a life.

It seems silly that we're still going to have a draft when my team has already won the tournament.

The only thing that seems silly here is your face.

OOH! BURN!

This draft shoulda had a scouting combine. Honest.

My principal said, 'Emo, Emo, Emo.'
I said 'I'm the one in the middle, you lousy drunk!'
-- Emo Phillips

I have decided who I want to draft. If I don't get my way then I quit.

"fuck yeah oblivion" - Jihad

If Janus gets his way I quit.

"Either, sir, you're an ass or masquerading as one."
- Nero Wolfe

If willthegreat and Janus either both quit or both don't quit, I quit.

Sorry, I've been re-taking the Self-Referential Aptitude Test again.

Edit: Wolfqueen, what COULD you be talking about?

My principal said, 'Emo, Emo, Emo.'
I said 'I'm the one in the middle, you lousy drunk!'
-- Emo Phillips

If Aschultz screws up his hyperlinking one more time, I quit.

[Eating EmP's brain] probably isn't a good idea. I mean... He's British, which means his brain's wired for PAL and your eyes are NTSC. - Will

Nothing will make me quit, so I win by default!

FINALLY!!!! I AM CHAMPION!!!!!!

I'm not afraid to die because I am invincible
Viva la muerte, that's my goddamn principle

Article XVI Rule 13.1 Paragraph 2 Line 3 states that for a Team Tournament Champion to be crowned, they have to fit two criteria:

1) Win the Team Tournament Championship Match
2) Not be named Overdrive

I don't have to boost my review resume because I have a real resume.

If I get drafted by the Chargers, I quit.

I CAN HAS CHEEZBURGER?

Put me in the draft pool.

Radical Dreamer a.k.a. theREALbbobb has entered as a draftee hopeful!!

And for those of you not keeping count, that leaves any other potential draftee hopefuls just over 4 hours time before the deadline for signing up for the draft.

I don't have to boost my review resume because I have a real resume.

I thought Radical Dreamer was Sportsman. Am I missing something?

Edit: Wait, maybe not. Why did I always think Radical Dreamer was Sportsman?

You exist because we allow it. And you will end because we demand it.

After one look at that aptitude test, I categorically refuse to try it unless free aspirin is supplied.

As for the tournament, I will quit only on condition that I quit.
