The Pink Slip Pool 09-10 (Results posted, only the 8-9 months late)
No idea how this is gonna go over, could sink like Kennedy's headlining prospects but we shall see. If it does, nevermind huh.
(September 1st 2009-September 1st 2010) Rules: Same kind of idea as the Dead Pool, you pick 10 WWE wrestlers you think could potentially be released/fired/might quit/die over the next 12 months (retirements do not count HBK fans) and PM them to my inbox. You score 100 points per correct wrestler plus 5 points per individual title reign in WWE. Wrestlers must be on either the RAW, Smackdown or ECW roster as of today (September 1st) excluding Jeff Hardy, who is still listed on Smackdown and Lilian Garcia on RAW, who has announced she's leaving. You have until the start of RAW next week for entries to be in. Bonuses: "First Blood" - If one of your picks is the first wrestler released during the alloted time period, bonus of 10 points. "Last Man Standing" - If one of your picks is the last release of the alloted time period, bonus of 10 points. "Single" - If you're the only person to pick a performer, bonus of 20 points. "Tag Team" - If you're one of two players with a pick, bonus of 10 points. "Kirk Angel Bonus" - 25 bonus points if the wrestler has ever held either the WWE or World Heavyweight championship "Bathturd Bonus" - 25 bonus points if the wrestler is involved in a PPV main event in the 6 months prior to his/her exit (So it was like 7-8 months, bite me) "Layfield Energy Bonus" - 10 bonus points if the wrestler held a championship belt in the 6 months prior to his/her release (WWE, WHC, IC, US, Tag, Womens, Divas) "Masterpiece Bonus" - 5 bonus points if the wrestler was released due to the Wellness Policy "Grand Slam" - Clear your entire roster and get 50 bonus points. RAW: http://www.wwe.com/superstars/raw/ Smackdown: http://www.wwe.com/superstars/smackdown/ ECW: http://www.wwe.com/shows/ecw/superstars/ |
I am gonna regret this so much come September next year if this catches on
|
I will have to think about this.

That's a lovely PM Lock Jaw :)
|
Lock Jaw has nothing to hide. :mad:
|
PM'd my picks, and was even nice enough to organize them by brand...also, CSLi, are we supposed to say who we think would be the first and last to be fired/quit, so you can count those for the First Blood and Last Man Standing bonus stips, or what?
CSLi, ya bastard, makin' me change my Lilian Garcia pick, just because "it's already been announced that she's leaving"...she never said WHEN specifically...what if it's AFTER the start of this little pool, HMM? Then what? |
Nah, I just need the list. If somebody on it happens to be first or last, that = bonus points
And Lockimus Jawimus, only reason I say PM's is for the sake of variety. If everybodies list is public straight away, there might be a lot of similarities |
Ok, dude, I reluctantly sent you an alt. pick for Lilian since you won't accept her as a legit pick, even though she may not even leave before the end of the year...
|
Contract is up at the end of the year dude. But I think you're replacement stands a pretty good shot at not being around come the end of this.
|
Eh, not too sure, was kind of deciding between that person or their former counter part who's on another brand now...
|
Yeah, a few people have gone one way or the other on that
This has gotten a better reaction than I thought so that's cool. Couple of very interesting picks as well. Now I gotta hit the bricks but yeah, keep sending the lists people, I'll read them all tomorrow :) |
I am in it, to win it.
Or not to win it. Not really that arsed. |
You will be arsed you gay! This shall be all you think about for the next 12 months :foc:

[U](September 1st 2009-September 1st 2010) Rules: Same kind of idea as the Dead Pool, you pick 10 WWE wrestlers you think could potentially be released/fired/might quit over the next 12 months (retirements do not count HBK fans) What were you smoking....HBK will NOT retire in the next 12 months....HBK has got 2-3 good years left in him....even on a limited schedule. |
<font color=goldenrod>Didn't go on too many limbs with my picks...probably should have strategized more but I'm really just shooting for the full roster clear bonus. I picked one guy who would net me the Layfield Energy one if cut in the next couple of months but other than that, no other bonuses.</font> :o
|
What about actual deaths? Do they count as well?
|
I was considering including deaths as a bonus but I thought it might be a bit morbid. But fuck it, yeah, quite a few of the people that have sent me lists have a lot of the same people on so yeah, adds a bit more variety. Not as a bonus mind you, just standard. Since the odds of anybody dying are pretty short, I'm guessing not many peeps would go for it but if you've submitted a list and think it actually might happen, feel free to re-send a list. Like I said, Monday is the cutoff. Ditto if anybody wants to change any of their picks.

Do you have any idea on the time this will start? Just incase we want to change our picks?
|
It started September 1st, as soon as your picks are in, you're eligible to score. You have until RAW starting next week to change your list but obviously if anybody left the company before that and they happened to show up on the new list, it wouldn't count ;)

My list feels weak. I think I should throw some wrenches in there.
|
Feel free. I thought some bigger names might be more common in some lists but not many have gone for them. I think my personal list would have quite a few names on it that have only shown up a couple of times on other people's.

where is the follow up thread?
|
I don't know... but DJ Gabriel is one off my list.
|
LOL, I was thinking about this today also. I too had DJ Gabriel. Is Jamie Noble officially done now? He would be two for me. But as for the others, not looking good.
|
I want to see the lists CSL!
|
I had DJ Gabriel too, but I also have Festus - little chance of him going away any time soon.
|
I think a lot of us had Festus.
I went with all obvious releases and one wild card (Big Show). Nothing yet. |
I had Festus and Jesse
|
Festus could still be released. Cade was Jericho's little enforcer buddy when he got released.
|
We have a whole year. I seriously doubt Festus will be with Punk come summer.
|
lol was going through some lists earlier after hearing about Lewington getting released but had no idea this had been bumped, only came across it through a good old vanity search
