Official Build-a-Team 1.0: Trade/Discussion (2 Hr Picks) P3

[SOUL]

yeah i can try, on sunday once the deadline is. if not we can do it. dont see a huge deal bout dat!

[WillyJakkz]

I agree w/ you Lin, I'm down w/ TRYING to get some judges from other boards etc vs us doing it ourselves which seems like that's SOULs intent.

Soul you did a good job getting this thing started but really dropped the rock finishing this thing out homie. I understand being busy etc and if done again maybe it's best to try to delegate some authority to other dudes like Lin, kneega etc who have been all in on this draft as it seems even you have lost interest in this.

It's seeming like it's ending w a fizzle and that's a shame cause this started out really really interesting.

Anyway shoutout to all the GM's who pimped their teams, took alotta work. Kudos.

[SOUL]

when have I not delegated? every thing i've done or wanted to do has usually been shot down because majority didnt want that, and its fine. people wanted to sim for a few days and then i posted the pimp thread. then everybody disappears.. i dont get what you want me to do about that.

all im saying (and ive been saying since the beginning) is that you'll probably get a more fair shake of things with people that were IN the draft rather than outsiders that havent really been paying attention/dont want to read everything.

if we COULD get those, thats fine. im not against trying to get judges from knicks board or whatever - I never said that, all im saying is i've read knicks B-A-T's and theres a lot of drama at the end because theres just 1 or 2 people judging or chiming in, I'd rather get 10-15 from people actually in it since you wont choose your whole team.

again, i did get busy but I dont get what you want me to do. All I'm saying is my opinion and I don't think it's too "out there" as an idea, and I never made it the "final say"

[SOUL]

fact is.. the whole dwight thing happened, and people went on vacay. we still got a lot of teams that pimped out, only thing now is judges. if you want to put it in the hands of 1 or 2 people, fine by me. but ive said since the START i'd rather have us judge, and I find nothing wrong with that. i dont think anybody is pathetic enough to try to win this by trying to bribe another person.

[OrlChamps2030]

BAT is cool and all..but pimping your team out takes a lot of work. I may get around to it but if not I'll just let the judges take a look at my roster ya dig

i just pimped phew that took a while

[FFBlitzace]

I pimped a very small amount, but then lost my motivation once it became clear to me that I had no chance of winning if we were going to judge it ourselves. So I decided to be a baby about it, pack up my ball, and go home. Which is always the best option.

[Lin Your Face]

I had some spare time today and I decided to rank the teams of the BAT. I'm basically finished, but I'm tired now and I want to make things a little more presentable and skim over the pimping thread tomorrow before I post them. I realize that my rankings aren't the official rankings. Get pumped.

To be fair, I dont think you guys would have a chance of winning if we didnt judge it ourselves LOL. I like Blitz team though, and Rockets too. I just have to see what its compared to

[Bensational]

haha, i don't know if i'm prepared to read through everyone's "pimping" to judge them. so much text and too many pictures make it a chore to get through.

i'll give it a shot when i get some time.

[p0peye]

I'm on a vacation in Greece this past few weeks, so I wasn't as active. Just pimped my team a bit, I know it's late but whatever.

[FFBlitzace]

I don't really mean to take a side on the judging debate. I was just letting my butthurt flow a little bit.

those are an unfortunately visual choice of words.

[Lin Your Face]

So I posted my rankings. Hopefully, outsiders or BAT participants will also help judge.

Also, Willy I'd alter the acronym BAT to build a team in your post on the general board. I'm assuming people there just don't understand what BAT means and ignore the post.

EDIT: Also, I'd be interested in hearing people's opinions on my team too. If I included myself in my rankings I'd have put myself as the top team overall with the best chance to win the 1st championship.

[SOUL]

also willy, no offense, the thread you made had no explanation of how we're being judged. they are purely going to judge on the best team right now and thats it.. dont get how that makes more sense than our own people doing it.

[SOUL]

you can edit it in if you want, still dont think they'd pay much attention to it. we'll see!

ill rank mine tomorrow once i get home from work. thanks for putting that time to judge yours, lin.

i lol'd pretty hard at most of the teams ahead of me, but it's all conjecture.

[Lin Your Face]

It's too bad that the Knicks board just started a new BAT. Its probably occupying the people who probably would've been a judge.

[Lin Your Face]

Soul, you realize you were allowed to include the Spurs in your ranking?
