Draft Class Mod *Now With Logo

[Arcane]

Now with logo well Work in Progress logo.


I am thinking of putting 1980 - 2010 instead of 1980 - 2009

[Andrew]

I reckon 1980-2009 looks good for now.

[Moz]

Some of the players I have for Class '80



(MS Word kickarse \m/)

[Arcane]

Cool I'll get to work on somethings tonight and tomorrow.

[Bodz]

Looking good there with the players, phatgeezer.

[fumanchu]

sexy...i love this project...i just wish i could find a way to contribute...

[Andrew]

Looking good. We should probably start working on roster listings.

[fumanchu]

will ed o' bannon be here? hehe

[Moz]

Is there any specific format on selecting players on every team's roster? (for example 3 Centers, 4 Forwards, and 5 Guards then the IR slots can be the left overs of the selections)

[Andrew]

We might skip the O'Bannons.

I don't think we necessarily need to have a rigid criteria for the teams since some classes are stronger than others and deeper at certain positions but preferably something along those lines wherever possible so we can at least have a "proper" starting five for each class.

[Arcane]

should we do a year by year consensus for each teams roster ?

[Moz]

Some more players

[Andrew]

should we do a year by year consensus for each teams roster ?

That's what I was thinking. For most classes there'll probably be very little debate at least amongst the cream of the crop.

[V.I.P]

i have a 1997-98
rosters, jersey,court,audio made by tony divience~
if u guys need it...

[Andrew]

If Tony's willing to let us use any faces and audio then we certainly might be able to put some of those resources to use.

[Moz]

I've already contacted mr.BAYAG and we got the go signal for those CFs he got from his classic teams

[Andrew]

Excellent, that will definitely save some time.

[Moz]

So when will the roster selection begin?

[Andrew]

Well, I've already invited suggestions for that. The best of the best will be obvious choices but there might be some debate in the players that round out the teams for each class.

[fumanchu]

should we create a list here for each year?

[Andrew]

That's what I was thinking.

[Moz]

I'll carry on if you like my taste...

[Andrew]

I'm thinking twelve man rosters would be more appropriate, at least for some classes. Particularly deep classes we might be able to stretch out to 15.

[Arcane]

Here is an updated logo



I've also started on teams wordmarks, jerseys and assembling shoes for this mod.

[Martti.]

Wow, updated logo looks great. And I think that 12 players for all classes would be fine. Accept maybe 2003, 1996 and other, which has numerous great players.

2003 could be like this :

C - Bosh
F - Lebron
F - Carmelo
G - Wade
G - Mo Williams.

Or :

C - Bosh
F - West
F - Lebron
G - Melo
G - Wade.
.................

And the bench :

Kirk Hinrich, Josh Howard, David West, Kyle Korver, Mikael Pietrus, Boris Diaw, TJ Ford, Perkins, Barbosa, Kaman. (Pavlovic, Collison, Outlaw, Kapono, Pachulia)
