Still need more guys.

I guess we could field a draft with only 28, but we'd still need at least 3 more GM's.

If you've ever watched the CB Draft threads and thought "Well that looks freakin intense, but also kind of fun", consider this Intro course. The stakes are low, the tone is casual, and everyone wears polo-shirts, cuz we're strictly business casual.

Transformers are dumb. And, why would they have swords? We used to have swords, until we invented guns.

And these sentient robots need swords? Its like a computer using an abacus.

In kicking (butt) and taking names mode, US Sniper teams use the 30 pound Barrett M107A1 to put a .50 caliber through that same 2-foot cement wall from a mile away.

So, Marine Sniper teams > Dinobots?

He also uses a double-barreled, self-propelled rocket launcher. He is almost invulnerable in his Tyrannosaurus Rex mode as shown with his battle with Megatron due to Megatron's primary weapon, his arm-mounted fusion cannon having little or no effect on Grimlock.

I have no issue running with 25 teams.  This way, even the last player has choices in teams.

Anything that doesn't start out with the premise of 'first of all, dinobots r dumb' is going to be written off by me as a credible source.

I'd like an even number of teams, preferably one divisible by 6 (so 24 would work I guess), but whateves.

Just for reference a man with a knife has the edge on a man with the gun if the conflict is under 23 feet or so.   It's been studied by the FBI and found to be the case....

Is there a huge hurry?  There are still like two weeks left until teams are picked, right?

I have one question and it's pretty critical. If the draft goes, what times do we draft? Morning? Noon? I just got moved back to graveyard. If the drafting commences during afternoons pacific time I might rescind my request to join, due to the fact that I am once again sleeping in the afternoons.

Appreciate it.

It was mentioned before that there'd be 2 sessions afternoon and night (I think its fair to assume that's EST)
