CaptnStrawberry Posted March 26, 2015 Report Share Posted March 26, 2015 Yo, CHUMPS. This fraggin' Arena League just hit the Big Leagues. That's right, the Main Man's got a plan: to use your innards to grease the gears of my Hog. Losers. Third Round Pick: Lobo And, I guess I'll go with the obvious theme song: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IyhJ69mD7xI Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bazza Posted March 26, 2015 Report Share Posted March 26, 2015 Pick #3 Doomsday http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doomsday_(comics) "Close the door, put out the light. You know they won't be home tonight" -- "No Quarter" Led Zeppelin. PM sent to Steve advising of End Times... Damage Incorporated: The Hulk, Hercules (Marvel), Doomsday (DC), more to come.

薔薇語 Posted March 26, 2015 Report Share Posted March 26, 2015 Was he born? For some reason I thought he was an experiment gone wrong. Also, Bazza, you seems to have the same plan as I entered with: Massive and monstrous brawlers. La Rose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psybolt Posted March 26, 2015 Report Share Posted March 26, 2015 If Superman is off limits, is it ok to draft the guy who beat him to death? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bazza Posted March 26, 2015 Report Share Posted March 26, 2015 Was he born? For some reason I thought he was an experiment gone wrong. From what i can gather, he was born and constantly experimented upon. If Superman is off limits, is it ok to draft the guy who beat him to death? I share your concerns and asked Lord High Commish if Doomsday was draftable in general, and not to a specific round. The answer to the general question was that Doomsday was allowed. Lord High Commish can post to confirm. I added to my question: "He is a Kryptonian like Power Girl". Wikipedia lists his species as "Ancient Kryptonian" so I thought it was worth mentioning. Lord High Commish replied to this but as that was in a PM it would be bad form for me to quote it. So I'll leave that to him. Lord High Commish has stated that any questions we should ask so I did. All of us want to play according to the rules. Hope that answers your question from my end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
薔薇語 Posted March 26, 2015 Report Share Posted March 26, 2015 From what i can gather, he was born and constantly experimented upon. Yeah, I think you are right. He was found and experimented on much like Wolverine, IIRC. La Rose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Logan D. Hurricanes Posted March 26, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 26, 2015 Yes, he's an experiment, but he's also an alien. Also, ever since he killed Superman he's been shown to be very beatable. Makes no sense to me either, but he's not the unstoppable machine he used to be.

Hermit Posted March 26, 2015 Report Share Posted March 26, 2015 The Season 2 Arena Games and by Black Kow - The Mature Manure "Hi, do you know me? I'm Hermit. You may recall me in such events as 'Blue Beetle beats everybody, no really' and 'Nightwing can seduce anyone... no really' . Some folks asked me how I manage to convince folks of that. Were they just humoring me? Sure, that helps, but what else helps in selling bull$#it is selling the RIGHT bull$#it. That's why LAUGH uses Black Kow. Black Kow takes a lot of $#it, puts in in attractive package, and sells it. And THAT my friends, is the path to victory." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Logan D. Hurricanes Posted March 26, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 26, 2015 I heard an ad for Black Kow on the radio yesterday and thought to myself, "This is how I know I live in an agriculturally focused city." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigbywolfe Posted March 26, 2015 Report Share Posted March 26, 2015 Doomsday is a clone. If clones are eligible for the "born this way" round that may effect my pick, I assumed they'd be considered like robots and constructs as created beings.

FrankL Posted March 26, 2015 Report Share Posted March 26, 2015 The opposite of "indecent"? Actually, the biggest problem was finding a picture of her that 1) wasn't some variation of the Phoenix costume, 2) wasn't unnecessarily stripperific, and 3) wasn't a cosplayer or an action figure. Most of what I saw was fan art on DeviantArt or Pinterest. It was hard to find an 'official' picture of Jean in that outfit. I'm curious to see what picture the Commissioner comes up with. Most of his were better than mine last season, especially Black Knight (RIP). Ok. I was wondering if by decent you meant "of at least halfway quality artwork" or "not stripperific."

Pariah Posted March 26, 2015 Report Share Posted March 26, 2015 So, whose turn is it to draft, again? I've lost track. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Logan D. Hurricanes Posted March 26, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 26, 2015 Sorry, Bazza, but upon further review, the officials have declared Doomsday an ineligible receiver for this round. He may come back in a later round, providing he qualifies there. Please choose again. I do apologize for the error, my fault entirely. Steve is up to pick. Steve, go ahead and make your selection. Baz may reselect at any time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
薔薇語 Posted March 26, 2015 Report Share Posted March 26, 2015 It is already super late at night for Bazza. He might not see that message in time. Would it be prudent to give him a freepass on the 24 hour pick rule (for this pick) since he might not have a chance to rethink his pick? At least he goes again soon so he is not likely to get sniped in the next four picks. La Rose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Logan D.
