Thanks guys, missed that (I'm stupid). It will be 10 PM EST, 9 PM CST. I think that makes it the best for both coasts: 10 east coast and 7 west coast. Sorry about that. Fixed.

In before the lock? I mean, start?
I thought I would sit this one out, because I really need to concenttrate on my work here. I still will do that, so it will be limited participation again. But I changed my mind and figured I would still give it a go. Seems like fun, PB. I'll be a defensive end out of UCLA.

This is your path to the National Football League. Your hard work and performance over the past four years has set you up as a likely first round pick in this year's draft.
Over the next five days you will be subjected to a variety of events and tests meant to establish your value as a player and your spot in this year's draft. But things aren't always as they appear. Among you are players that have cheated, juiced, and received payment to get to the same spot as you. It is your job to root them out before they possibly get a better draft spot than you or worse, cheat you in some way. Good luck, and the Senior Bowl is tomorrow at noon CST. The more points you spend in each event, the better your performance and the better chance of receiving a reward. Last edited by PurdueBrad : 03-29-2010 at 09:13 PM. Reason: Added last paragraph |

Oh, yeah, it's on.
Chief Rum checking in. I am going to bed early tonight and getting up really early tomorrow (dentist appointment in afternoon forcing early arrival to work). So expect some posts early, and then I'll disappear to get some work done, and then I probably won't be around until after deadline, when I am in pain (sucks).

A couple quick answers to things I received via PM:
1- Your 50 points are your total points for the entire game cycle, meaning from now until the end of the draft. Make sure you spend wisely. Event #1 is today's Senior Bowl at noon CST so PM me those point expenditures. 2- Votes are posted publicly in the forum whereas point expenditures are PM'ed. |

3- Damn, knew I forgot one. There are players out there with skills that do not equate to roles. They have the ability to help/hurt other players in the individual tasks. These skills do no necessarily align with wolf/villager affiliation.

4- Each player does start the game with the same amount of energy points.
I'll be around all day for any issues and keep any and all questions coming. I'm excited about today! |

Number six and creeping.
This will be interesting, like the Olympics, in seeing how much the draft competition affects voting. I'm not sure where I'll go yet. |

How many wolves do we guess in a game this size. Three? |

My guess is three, yes.
This appears to be a regular WW game in NFL Draft colored wrapping, but right now, what comments we have are more about the drafting than the game. It could be even harder to make an informed lynch decision today than usual, and Day Ones are always hard in the first place.

I think the question is, do we think wolves more or less likely to assert themselves in the draft.
From what I can gather, the wolves have no posted reason to give anything about the draft and frankly might use that as cause to by-and-large ignore it |

It's Senior Bowl time, right? I'm not quick with the Central time zone adjustment.

North 37, South 21
Bob P- Welcome to the 2010 Senior Bowl...This year's North vs. South game featured some of the best players in the country. Today, by my side are Mike Mayock and Charles Davis, and I'm Bob Papa coming to you live from Mobile, Alabama. I'll be covering the star of the game, but before we get to that, I'll have Mike present some of the other top performers... Mike M- Thanks Bob, I'm going to talk about two prime-time players. Crimson Fox put on a show today, making the quarterbacks look better than they really should've. The most memorable play he made was outjumping two opponents for a 48 yard touchdown. But he had three other catches of 25 yards or more...he was awesome. The Jackal thankfully didn't have to worry about covering CrimsonFox. He put some jarring hits out there today in what was supposed to be a showcase. I guess you can't turn off pure violence. He knocked lose one fumble and forced three drops on crushing hits. I know I would have alligator arms if I saw him coming at me today. Impressive! Charles D- I've got the flip side of things though today. I've got to talk about the busts, and there are a couple biggies. Autumn found himself destroyed by receivers and running backs today. He just didn't seem to have his legs with him. But late word has been that he spent more time last night being seen with a lady then preparing for today's game. In fact, there are some rumors that the lady he was with is of, hmmmm, shall we say, ill-repute. I would say he left his game...somewhere else. Schmidty was another disappointment as he didn't get much burst out there today. He's a bruiser but even that seemed off. We'll hopefully get more out of him later, but a 1.7 yard per carry average just won't cut it. Bob P- Well that brings it back to today's star...Abe Sargent. That's right folks, a kicker. Three kicks out of the endzone for touchbacks just started things off. He then boomed four tremendous field goals of 48, 51, 56, and 58 yards. 'The Leg' was untouchable and amazing. His stock is likely soaring today. Nice job Abe! Well folks, that's it from Mobile, but stay tuned for tonight's Pro-Day results and updated Big Board at 9 PM CST.

Some quick senior bowl thoughts.
Autumn / Schmidty were both middle of the pack and appeared to mail-in the senior bowl. Abe definitely put in some points trying to move up from the bottom of the pack. Let me through out an idea that just popped in my head. Since the wolves are characterized as cheaters in the game, do we think they might get a bonus or have an ability to perform better on the events? Thus there 5 points might be better than the 5 points of a vanilla villager?

I felt that, as a Kicker, I needed to prove myself in an actual game, rather than through stats, and I'm glad it worked!!!
