DRAFT 03 - MOVIES: All Genres (Faves) - Rules


And the second draft is complete! This one focuses on faves, not "bests"... so don't get caught up in the hype. Oh, and "Indie" is not a category bc you can pick Indie flicks for any of these categories!
NOTE: Be careful about NOT mentioning unpicked movies, as we will have follow up drafts!

EIGHT Rounds, PICK THREE AT A TIME! - 24 total picks, chosen in any order.

  • Pick one PERSONAL FAVE for every category!
  • Action
  • Animated
  • Black & White
  • Comedy
  • Crime
  • Documentary
  • Drama
  • Family
  • Fantasy
  • Foreign
  • Guilty Pleasure
  • Holiday
  • Horror
  • Medieval
  • Music
  • Romance
  • Romantic Comedy
  • Sci-Fi
  • Sensual
  • Sports
  • Suspense
  • War
  • Western
  • Wild Card
RULES: (with 48 hour pick rule)
If you pick a movie, you get just that movie, not the series/sequels. I think this draft should be pretty straight forward!

With all issues, to keep it simple, I have final say ;)

Here is your draft order: randomized at random.org. I'ts a snake draft, so the last team will take two turns in a row at 1.9 and 2.1, then we crawl back up the order.

1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-10-10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1-1-2... etc. (choose THREE picks at a time!)

  • 1. Team Cybertron (Again!? No fair!)
  • 2. Nothing Special
  • 3. Mister Merchants
  • 4. Literati Fantastique
  • 5. Ramchargers (Welcome to the draft!)
  • 6. The Regulators
  • 7. Chivalry Is Dead
  • 8. Roughnecks
  • 9. Fridge Lords
  • 10. Pyrokleptics

DRAFT 02 - The 80s - Rules

Congrats on the first draft. This one involves a bit more strategy, but it's fun.
Click TEAM PAGES on the right for info, pics, video and analysis!

What best captures the essence of the 80s?

FIVE Rounds, PICK THREE AT A TIME! - 15 total picks, chosen in any order.

  • Songs/Videos (6 Total)
  • Toys/Collectibles (3)
  • Fad (1)
  • TV Show - Any Genre (1)
  • Movie - Any Genre (1)
  • Actor (1)
  • Actress (1)
  • Catchphrase (1)
RULES: (with 48 hour pick rule)
IMPORTANT - It's like Scattegories, if an item/person is picked, another person CANNOT pick it for a different category! The exception is actors/movies don't cancel each other out. Also, to force variety, each team may only have ONE song/video from any specific artist. For example, I can't choose 6 Journey songs. I can only choose one. OTHER TEAMS can pick the OTHER Journey songs though. Also, one team CAN choose both a Genesis and a Phil Collins song, since they're different names. Plus, that leaves the others open for all to share!

With all issues, to keep it simple, I have final say ;)

Here is your draft order: randomized at random.org. I'ts a snake draft, so the last team will take two turns in a row at 1.8 and 2.1, then we crawl back up the order.

1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1-1-2... etc. (choose THREE picks at a time!)

  • 1. Team Cybertron
  • 2. Mister Merchants
  • 3. Roughnecks
  • 4. Chivarly Is Dead
  • 5. Fridge Lords
  • 6. Literati Fantastique
  • 7. The Regulators
  • 8. Nothing Special

DRAFT 01 - TV Sitcoms (Primetime) - Rules

We finally have the first draft! Rules at the bottom of the post.
Click TEAM PAGES on the right for info, pics, video and analysis!

Five Rounds, NO CATEGORIES (character, theme song, etc.). Let's keep the first one simple!

RULES, in good faith: (24-hour rule is now 48 hours)
Primetime TV Sitcom. Pretty straightforward. Spin-offs are fair game to draft. Be fair about it being an official spin-off though, and not just a name change or slight season change.

Here's the best example: There were slightly different names for the Cosby show, so that counts as one show. However, he made an entirely different show called "Cosby" later in his career. Different characters, etc. THAT would be acceptable as a separate choice. With all issues, to keep it simple, I have final say ;)

Here is your draft order: randomized at random.org. I'ts a snake draft, so Team Regulators will make two picks in a row at 1.8 and 2.1, then we crawl back up the order.

1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1-1-2... etc.

  • 1. Chivarly Is Dead
  • 2. Literati Fantastique
  • 3. Team Cybertron
  • 4. Fridge Lords
  • 5. Nothing Special
  • 6. Roughnecks
  • 7. Mister Merchants
  • 8. The Regulators
It is easiest to post your pick like this:

1.1 Step by Step - I loved this growing up because that little kid with the glasses was ZOMG hawt and I spit milk out of my nose one time watching Bobby on Dallas.

You don't have to provide commentary, but it's fun. Posting the "1.1" or "3.4" or whatever will help the next people keep the order in mind, so that also helps. Don't worry, it's easier than it sounds. :D
