Seriously you guys? I said the day after I took him that it wasn't worth this shit. If Nick wants Jericho, than take him, I really do not give a fuck anymore. I understand why ypou'd be upset that I stole your pick, but those are the fucking rules, if you had a problem with them then you shouldn't have signed up. Was it fair? Fuck no, but it's not supposed to be. Sleg and Ro both said that those were the rules, but it's not fucking worth listening to you guys bitching about it.

Quit your bitching. Here is the timeline of events so you understand the bigger picture better.

- After you made the move, Nick raised a bitch fit. I stood my ground.
- I offered to let Nick take Team AVO.
- Eventually, he agreed to let you have Jericho (who isn't even worth this shit to begin with, Nick.)
- Then, Butters said he still intended to play (at this point, I don't give a shit anymore if he no-shows the entire season. It just means two free wins for us all.)
- Nick takes Team AVO as a result.
- Since Team AVO does have #1 waiver priority, it's only right that Nick can have Jericho now.

So if you don't give a fuck, how come you're so mad? PX has the right idea. We don't even know for sure if Jericho is coming back anytime soon, so at this point taking Jericho is a gamble/long-term maneuver right now. And if it doesn't even pan out, both you and Nick will look like huge idiots for this spat.

If it doesn't pan out, you should thank Nick for giving you an opportunity to go for someone better (like, say, Jinder Mahal, who showed up on SmackDown straight from FCW).

You're better than this, AJ. That outburst was unnecessary. In fact, this entire fight was unnecessary had either of you realized taking Jericho was not really a good move right now, and just let the other look like a gambling fool.

Oh. Ok. All I know is that there was bitching when I left, bitching on AIM and bitching when I came back. I was unaware that it was different bitching. Very well. Carry on then.

sorry to bother you, but I didn't post my line-ups.

If you could, just raised a point in the line-up thread and roster thread. If you could answer those so I know who to cheer for this week. thanks!

Like the only match I miscalled. Feels bad man, should've gone with my gut and put Kharma in for the week. Damn Hell Ass WWE

Fucking love that theme. He should bring it back. Fo realz.

Another week, another victory.

I thought Chavo could save my week, but boy was I wrong. Just write off this week, like EVERY OTHER PPV week so far.

I AM PISSED!

^The only good thing to come from Christian losing.

Bite me Nick2.

EDIT: Disregard that, I suck cocks.

You know when to turn in your line-ups.

10. Butters (0-5-0) -4

JoMo's out for 4-6 weeks. Well fuck.

So, is this dead, Ro? I'd try to take over the scoring but I'm not 100% sure of your rubric plus I don't actually watch the shows anymore, except for rare occasions.

I'm doing the scores, I'll have them up in 5 minutes

SCORES for the previous week:

Nick +5 (Slater +3, Ted +3, Striker +1, Conor O'Brian -2

Butters +13 (Michael Cole +3, Teddy Long +1, Brie -1, Nikki +3, Cena +7
RCA 0 (Layla +1, Miz +3, Big Show +1, Dolph -5, Novak 0

Leon +11 (Sin Cara +5, Zeke +1, Mason -1, Swagger +6
Nick B DQ'ed


I decided to help Ro out here and keep this thing moving. As far as the Bellas are concerned, I agreed with Butter's logic in that He'd have priority to pick up the Bella off Nick.

Now, I don't know what scoring system Romeo uses, so this was scored off of my own system, which was the original WFL scoring system. It may be the same system, I can't really tell either way.

Anyway, to give a quick recap of the week, RAW did a lot of pushing for the next PPV, Over The Limit. The original plan was going to see R-Truth vs John Morrison, but with JoMo out for 4-6 weeks he needed a new opponent, and found one in the form of Rey Mysterio, with match looking set for that show. Meanwhile, John Cena needed an opponent for Over The Limit, and it was The Miz who won the opportunity, though with the announcement of the match being "I Quit", Miz's chances of winning are zero.

Jerry Lawler vs Michael Cole continued its build up, to the interest of nobody, though we were given a priceless moment with Cole's face squished against the Cole Mine. Kane/Show vs. The Nexus continued with another painful Mason Ryan match, and we also saw CM Punk buried in that segment, seemingly confirming his inevitable leave. Ted DiBiase Dolph Ziggler's "new and improved" push continued with a squash win over Santino, but the former World Champion looking pretty directionless right now, much to my ire.

Over on Smackdown, we saw Wade Barrett vs Ezekiel Jackson set for Over the Limit, following ANOTHER Kane DQ win against the Corre this time. Lot's of good wrestling worth seeing on the show, but nothing moving very far storyline wise, though we did see Sin Care and Chavo Guerrero's storyline continue, with the possibility of Daniel Bryan getting involved in that. Colour me excited.

In the week's matchups, the STREAK DIED this week, as team SOS failed to win a match between them, while Randy Orton ran all over Smackdown! to continue the revival of team PX.
Romeo was short-changed by two DQ win's for Kane, leaving him just short against Nick2.
Some Perfect Predicting from Panzer saw him obliterate Slegna, with dominance from Christian capping a tremendous week, with nothing going at all for Sleg.
Dolph Ziggler left team RCA with a lot to desire, as he's become a little unpredictable, and Butter's scooped up an easy win, with John Cena scoring over half his points, and finally,
Leon notched up a DQ win over Bryson to keep him moving up the ladder, completing a round that totally tore up the form book.

Table as of week six is as follows:

1. SOS (5-1-0) 64
2. Leon (4-2-0) 55 (previously #4)
3. Slegna (4-2-0) 48 (previously #2
4. Romeo (3-3-0) 64 (previously #3)
5. PX (3-3-0) 54 (previously #6)
6. RCA (3-3-0) 37 (previously #5)
7. Panzer (2-4-0) 57 (previously #8 )
8. Nick2 (2-4-0) 46 (previously #7)
9. Butters (1-5-0) 9 (previously #10)
10. Nick1 (0-6-0) -4

After a big reshuffle in the table Ladies and Gentlemen, this is proof, ANYTHING CAN HAPPEN, IN THE WWE!

Hold up, hold up, hold up, hold up, hold up.

While I appreciate your initiative, I did not give you any authorization to go ahead - in fact, I was planning to do the scores tomorrow.

Nevertheless, what's done is done, and it'll only be counterproductive to delete all of this. Instead, I will double-check the scores you came up with (because honestly, none of you seem to completely understand how I come up with my scores) and see if they check out just fine.

I will be doing next week's. Thank you very much again, PX.

Alrighty then, I was just a bit anxious to see this continue is all. If you check my scores and they boggle you I can send you a breakdown, and what scoring system I used.

Ok,

Firstly, my waiver priority isnt a per person transaction, Ro said that it works like fantasy football and thats not how fantasy football works, you get all the people you pick up on one move.

Secondly, I dont know when these roster deadline things are supposed to be up. However, since clearly its better to just joke around about shit instead of figuring out if the person involved knows shit, I'll probably cease participating.

Sorry, I posted the question almsot two weeks ago, and never got an answer, I even psoted two line-ups, as I wasn't sure what went through. I wasn't saying you were wrong, I was asking how it worked.

You just need to post before RAW begins. Last fortnight I posted halfway through RAW, but last week you posted 4hrs after it started so of course it has an element of does he know the results already.


In other news, I would feel bad if I were the one to knock SOS off his perch and beat him in the same week. So much like Chelsea in the EPL, I'll sit and wait til he has 6 weeks of continual losses.

And with that note, GLORY GLORY MAN UNITED!! Had to do it somewhere.

Nick, I <3 u but you honestly just made yourself look like a fool on this one.

Every time a week ends, I tell people exactly by when to post their line-ups. It goes to show that you're clearly not reading the write-ups I post. They're very important, you know.

considering last week, or was it the week before?, was my first week, and my laptop recently went on the fritz, its not something I honestly noticed. I figured we just put them up whenever, I dont have cable so I dont really pay attention to when its raw time.

if'n thats the case then no big deal.

Besides, I think my post beat the deadline for AM RAW, that should count for something, AMIRITE?

also, I didnt score a point. =(

Just post them before the sun sets on Tuesday and you'll be fine.




*Remembers that the sun sets pretty late in 'Murrica, especially in DST*

Still not sure who's on my team...

Posting the same line-up as last week, as that got scored, so I'm assuming that team is legal.

Wait, seriously? We can post after RAW and still get scores for this week?

No, not seriously. I was trying to simplify things for Nick but I realized the implications of the statement.

Oh, ok. 'Cause I was about to mention how exploitable that would be.
