Pariah Posted February 1, 2020 Author Report Share Posted February 1, 2020 As Hermit's wildly creative and snipe-ridden Cast Your Fantasy Kingdom Superdraft! comes to a close, have we any ideas (or desire) for a February Superdraft? Anyone? Anyone? Bueller? Bueller? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
csyphrett Posted February 1, 2020 Report Share Posted February 1, 2020 Do you want to run the band draft, Par? CES Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pariah Posted February 1, 2020 Author Report Share Posted February 1, 2020 I could, if people are agreeable. It would probably involve a location, five heroes, one support character, an as-yet-undetermined number of villains, and a couple of non-character Options.

I tried crazy, and while I think others will take the idea of 'casting' and improve on it eventually, 'nothing too crazy' might be welcome Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pariah Posted February 5, 2020 Author Report Share Posted February 5, 2020 The Five Man Band Superdraft has now been posted. Drafting starts Friday, February 7th at noon Eastern time. Logan D. Hurricanes 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sociotard Posted February 9, 2020 Report Share Posted February 9, 2020 For March, would anyone be interested in a "Reading Rainbow Superdraft"? All characters must have first appeared in a book. Graphic novels do not count for the purpose of this draft. This is FIRST appearance. Huckleberry Finn has been in many movies, but he was in a book first. Spider-man has been in a few novels, but he was in comics first. The restriction applies to the character, regardless of franchise. Many "Star Wars" characters are out, but Thrawn was in a book first. Pariah 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cancer Posted February 9, 2020 Report Share Posted February 9, 2020 There will be questions about, e.g., Thor, who originated in purely oral tradition. I don't think that's an insuperable issue, but things could get fuzzy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sociotard Posted February 9, 2020 Report Share Posted February 9, 2020 I will allow oral tradition and poetry. No radio, comics, movies, or plays. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sociotard Posted March 21, 2020 Report Share Posted March 21, 2020 I had a concept for a superheroes draft. I wanted to run it by everyone, see if there was interest.Guar Max Snipage Superdraft Day 1 everyone drafts 8 characters. Some heroes, some villains, all comic book super-persons. We want everyone's list in QUICKLY, so it doesn't matter if there are duplicates. Day 2-5: Stragglers enter their submissions. Day 6: NO NEW PLAYERS! I post the master list: Every character drafted, duplicates reduced to singles. I will replace duplicates with a pre-prepared list of popular list (there are three picks for superman? I go to the top two on my list that haven't been picked, and I add them. Now the master list has 1 superman and two other people)` Day7-end: Draft Normally. All your characters must come from the Master List, and you can't draft anyone you originally submitted. (so, from the example earlier, none of the three players could draft Superman. anyone could draft the two people I replaced his duplicates with) Location 8 characters 3 options (can be used for characters not on the Master List) Maximally limited selection! Sniping is guaranteed! (I still say this is a great way to spend our self-isolating hours) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bazza Posted March 21, 2020 Report Share Posted March 21, 2020 Well, it’s not snipage if people all pick who they want and then draft a different roster. You could call it a ‘limited list’ Superdraft. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
csyphrett Posted March 21, 2020 Report Share Posted March 21, 2020 So we select eight characters to pick and then pick our enemies roster. That sounds doable CES Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cancer Posted March 21, 2020 Report Share Posted March 21, 2020 Is the goal to be sniped or avoid being sniped? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sociotard Posted March 21, 2020 Report Share Posted March 21, 2020 I see it as a bit like musical chairs, in that moment when three people lunge for the same chair. There will be a very limited set of people to draft. That means more people will wind up wanting the same character. I will concede that "The Master List superdraft" might be more descriptive. I just thought of it as a way to maximize one of my favorite parts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cancer Posted March 23, 2020 Report Share Posted March 23, 2020 Are the three options part of the initial draft? (I have a sick, perverse concept....) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sociotard Posted March 23, 2020 Report Share Posted March 23, 2020 No. the initial draft is 8 characters only. the options can be used to get characters that don't appear on the Master List. And you can't use the Options to get characters that ARE on the master list, or there won't be enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
