How exactly does free agency work after the 20 rounds?
I need to update the rules. Free agency doesn't necessarily start after 20 rounds. Usually close to 20 rounds I'll make a judgment of how many rounds to add. This is based off of if the majority of people are still picking.

Free agency is usually a few days of the last people left still picking when mostly everyone else is done. Basically starting at noon on a day, free agency will be open. Sometimes there's a limit on the number of people in a day you can take, sometimes no limit (depends how many are participating).

On day 1 of free agency it's up to you to post your picks once the start time hits. First come, first serve.

I've had my eye on Boss Man for a while. Was thinking about taking him next pick if he kept falling.

I almost selected him with my last pick. I have a match planned for him that I am very happy with.

Maybe it is worth a spoiler......

Well, I definitely did not expect anyone else to draft Jacob Fatu. He was my pet project for the draft and I assumed that I could get him whenever. Good pick by Habsrule.

Thanks. I think that maybe not everyone knows who he is but if they would look up his move set or highlights on YouTube they would be pretty impressed. Plus with him never wrestling for a major promotion then I can make a match with any current or past wrestler and it will be new and fresh.

Yes since he's wrestled almost no one who will conceivably be drafted and has a pretty straight forward athletic big man style he works in many combinations. I've had his match penciled in for quite some time so now a few more options have opened up.

Hold on, are we supposed to draft a commentary team?

Some do, some don't. If someone drafts a commentary team I generally ignore it when I consider the show as, to me, it's about which show I would buy a ticket for. People view these things differently.

Hmm, now I'm wondering if I should draft a commentary team. I don't want to but I don't know if it'll affect people's voting.

It doesn't much for me. For some of the cards I think it works for others I've seen it's completely unnecessary.

I had planned to take a commentary team in free agency. Along with an Backstage Interviewer and Ring Announcer. But I wouldn't use picks on one.

I can say this now that I got him, but my intention for Jesse Ventura is actually the special guest referee in the Main Event match. Let's just say I felt I needed a ref who was "independent" and "unbias" and The Body fit the bill, plus he's tough enough even in the Governor version to deal with some potential outside interference himself.

I am the same with a commentary team or people like that. To me I want to watch a care for who is on it wrestling. With that being said I did just draft Paul Heyman probably way too early. I could have waited for free agency but I am thinking of my matches and storylines. I have a storyline that I NEEDED Heyman for and couldn’t risk someone else grabbing him.

For Heyman? No, I think you have to draft him. I mean, I would have.

I know the anonymous GM is done picking, but it looks like the vast majority are as well.

I will add rounds 21-25.

Who is done picking, if anyone?
