Two more coming in hot off the presses for your drafting consideration! First we have the epitome of your modern indy darling: a flippy striker who's probably spent his career killing himself for very little recognition. But he's such a good athlete! Look at how many lotations he can do! Draft him and give him a good job somewhere. Second, we have a bit of an unusual one. Sometimes, matches break down, sometimes things go sideways and the official just can't get things back under control. Sometimes wrestlers try to bully the referee, just completely disrespecting the rules of wrestling and undermining the authority. Well, here's a referee who's happy to get more hands-on if need be. Or, maybe, even if needs *don't* be. That's not...how English is meant to work, but I think you can still understand it. He's a ref who wrestles. EDIT: two more Third, an ECW/XPW-style brawler with some monster heel sensibilities. Probably looks more intimidating next to smaller wrestlers like a modern indy monster heel. Might be a wrestling hitman, brought in to collect on bounties placed on other wrestlers. Fourth, my take on a sort of modernized early 2000s spot monkey with a very vague skater aesthetic. Very much a flippy boy who likes showing off his athleticism by doing four or five moonsaults in a row and no-sells offense late in the match in order to get his shit in.

I said I would throw my hat in the ring of this draft, and I deliver for now! First submission from the British Isles, in the form of an attempt at an unsafe worker, since those are harder to make than a competent one. Give it up for the Bare Knuckle Bruiser! "Danny Carter is best known to wrestling fans as the Bare Knuckle Bruiser, a fairly talentless wrestler and thug-for-hire. Gaining his ringname from his former life as a bare knuckle boxer, Carter is one of the British indy scene's most feared competitors - not by the fans, but by the wrestlers themselves! Notoriously unsafe, and brutally stiff, Carter has injured more opponents in his five-year career than most injure in a lifetime. The Bruiser's biggest opportunity to date came in mid-2019 when he was offered a trial with an unsuspecting European promotion. However, when Carter nearly injured his opponent the deal was off and Bruiser returned to the indy scene."

Wow, we have about 45-50 now!! I have updated the main list with the recent submissions. I think we have enough for a full draft now. Thank you to DP23 and Johnny Jett for all of the new ones and to Knocked for your first submission which is really appreciated! Do you have full moves and logic on him too? That wasn't required but it sounds like you actually made a full edit there to be drafted! I updated my first Egg: Amaresu with 2 new outfits. I updated my second Egg: Monsterasu with 1 new outfit (formal attire lol) And I posted my third Egg: Thairasu (Muay Thai style) with 4 appearances. *Wakes up from whatever eternal slumber he has been in on this board* Wait... there's a draft!? There is!! π I just signed you up to the list of drafters assuming you would want to take part in drafting them π Glad to hear from you! Hope that all is well πββοΈ

Update π
Do you guys want to formally start the draft next Sunday, July 11?
This will give people one final week from now to sign up to be a drafter and to make any draft submissions.
I would close submissions and close the member list on 11:59 PM on Wednesday, July 7.
Everyone will have 4 full days to compile your lists in the order you want the picks before the draft starts. Some of you may have already started doing that anyway given how many edits are available now.
On July 8th, I would run the list of members through an internet randomizer to get the order that people draft in. Then the first person can make their pick at any time starting at 12:00 AM Sunday, July 11th.
Everyone would get a full day to make your draft pick.
You can also all send me your picks ahead of time in a list so that I can draft for you if you won't be around. I would give you the entire day to make your pick then make your draft pick for you once the day is over.
Let me know what guys think! π‘

I've got two more edits I'll be adding for sure and I'm aiming to work on a few more. I'm definitely not gonna catch up to DP, but I'll at least hit ten.

Looks like we're up to 60 edits now!! π if its not too late I got some more edits to submit. I made a new wrestling territory for my IWW-verse. Like always I wont be using people I make lol; so have at them. Roster of Caribbean Championship Wrestling Thank you! We really appreciate the massive and great contributions from you! π It is definitely not too late. You can continue to submit until 11:59 PM on Wednesday, July 7. It also really adds legitimacy to this draft as a true heir/descendent to the old ones we used to have. Almost every FPR draft we had was from you or Cuzind. By the way, do some of your edits have moves/logic? That certainly wasn't a requirement for the draft but it seems like you already have full edits which you made that you didn't end up getting to use. Iβve unfortunately had some urgent renovations that is going to keep me extremely busy for much of the next 4-5 weeks and I donβt think I will be around to take part in the draft, Iβd have happily made a couple more characters if I had the time but just happy to have contributed to the project in a small way! Hope some community participation can remain a regular thing I 100% understand and am very sorry to hear about the urgent renovations. There is absolutely no pressure to participate any further. But you are also completely invited to participate in the "drafting" phase. Even if you only have time to make a few choices, it could be worth it to you. You could even PM me your choices (and a few backups in case your choices are drafted by someone else before you) and then I can do the drafting for you when it's your turn to pick. We really do thank you for your contribution and hope that you can grab an edit or two as a parting gift π Also, I'm going to make sure that these drafts continue and that other C!C community projects start up. I already have a few ideas for them. I've got two more edits I'll be adding for sure and I'm aiming to work on a few more. I'm definitely not gonna catch up to DP, but I'll at least hit ten. Awesome! The ones you already posted really helped us out as well...and me too if I'm able to draft them π I have one more coming too that I'll hopefully finish this weekend.

Yeah, there is no pressure to create any new edits, especially at this point. We have a TON! π
You are on the list to draft so you can spend time over the next week starting to compile your list.
I would recommend that everyone have a list of alternates too.
Right now I have 10 main picks and 10 alternates. I figure that some of the edits I on my list may be drafted by others before I have a chance to draft them which is why I have the alternate list.

Now that I think about it; it was just Cuzind, Ceese and me that ran drafts lol. As for EDITS, if they got a name they'll have full movesets, AI, Stats. If they are templates (DP01 - DP whatever I got up to) they they'll have template moves and logic. Also in honor of Del Wilkes passing, here is a Patriot inspired edit for the draft. Imgur refuses to upload anything for me this morning, so heres a link. steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2536435363

Four new additions. I'm gonna keep trying to make edits until the deadline because, hey, you can never have enough options. First up we have a young Japanese wrestler on excursion. He's finding his footing and developing his own style, but he's not quite there yet. Comes in both developed and youngboy flavors. Second we have a sinister, rule-breaking villain who has vampiric serial killer vibes. Very Gangrel-played-by-Kevin-Sullivan. Maybe he's a cult leader, maybe he's just a lone maniac. YOU decide! Third we've got a sumo wrestler turned pro wrestler! Palm strikes and throws are sure to abound whether he's a shoot sumo or just a fat guy who's been dressed like one. Maybe he's Japanese. Maybe he's Hawaiian or Samoan. Maybe he's actually just a fat white guy with a tan. WHO KNOWS! He's sure to be a force to be reckoned with. Just look how big he is! Lastly we have a cruiserweight who can strike and grapple in equal measure. Maybe he's a shooter, maybe he's just really good at pretending, one way or the other he's bound to be exciting, gentlemanly, and in no way problematic! He also doesn't have any shitty tattoos! Why would he!
