2013 Deadlift and Overhead(Game of Death(lifts)) competition Team Captain Thread

Didn't think the title needed much in the way of creativity since thins thread can pretty much be deleted once it has served it's purpose.

So right now it looks like it's myself, WitchCraft, Kortiz, and MMAaddict as team captains.

Are we doing this today?

 

Legio, TheeFaulted is now a Captain, so there are five of you.

Sort it out among yourselves and let me know when you want me to stop taking entries.

Good luck!

 

I'm in the office today until 4, but it's probably easier for me to do the drafting while here at work. I can draft basically anytime today.

 

All five Captains need to be online at the same time. One of them makes a Draft pick, then the next Captain chooses and so on until all five of you have picked a Teammate. Then the first Captain goes again. The process continues like this until all Competitors have been assigned a Team.

It took a few days to arrange the Draft for Squatr Bowl because we had to make sure we could all be in the Draft Thread at the same time.

 

Well I can do this afternoon. Don't know about the other three.

 

PM them?

 

I tried PMing Kortiz but it said undeliverable? Maybe his inbox is full or I screwed up the sending process??

I'm going to go train but I'll be free again from about 1630-1745 EST and then again from roughly 2000-On. If later this evening works for the other captains that would be nice as today is my last day off of work and such.

 

I can do this up until 4pm.

 

I'm in until 4 central, otherwise I can do this at 9 central.

 

Is that EST? Well dang. I'm about to step out the door and won't be back til after that.

EDIT: Realistically if we decided the selection order it wouldn't really matter if we were all here. There's no real discussion needed. You just rotate and pick until the list is exhausted. The captains can swing in and make a pick when they have a moment and I'm sure we'll be done in short order.

Unless someone has a better, more fair, suggestion for selection order I say we just go oldest to youngest, as tradition would have it. I'm 26.

 

Yes, EST. I can do it on my phone I guess. I'll keep checking up on this as often as I can.

 

We can all make a list of the 63 participants in the order we want them. After all captains submit their list, one person can go through and make the picks in turn, selecting the next highest ranked available participant on each "turn".

 

Oh snap, this is a press competition too? Where have I been? lol

 

Oh, and I'm 27.

 

If there are 63 participants, how are we going to divide the teams up evenly to five captains?

 

Last 3 are reserves

 

OK, that makes more sense.

I vote waiting another day or two before doing the draft. The starting numbers aren't there for everyone yet. And I have stuff to do like eating half a pumpkin pie by myself before anyone else gets to it.

 

I don't have any meetings the next two days. 9-3 central works best from me, as I can usually adjust my work schedule, and fit in the drafting.

 

I will be doing a press, I just haven't decided if it will be strict or push, just FYI. Strict PR is 135, push press is 185.
