It was an okay movie. We liked the bit at the end the best. Louis, Louis, Louis. Still whining. CES

Watched a bunch of pirated anime on Youtube CES

We'll give everyone a chance to catch up before I post a poll. My title is obviously Old Man by The Sea CES

I restrained myself at the last second to using some of the Sage background Denny O'Neill came up with for whatever reason. CES

Has everybody got their ten picks in for the draft? One location/sponsor, a team of five, one alien enemy, three options. I am pretty sure Bone Daddy and Lucius haven't made all their picks yet. CES

Karl Kolchak has worked the streets of Prague for years, looking for the hidden truths of things. He has learned a lot of secrets, and exposed some dark things. He has earned a reputation as the Faceless Man CES

Orville Redden is an environmentalist at heart. He has decided the way to help the environment is to stop carbon producing industries. And the way to do that is to bomb them out of existence. A temporary blast of carbon is better than ongoing streams in his opinion. The media has named him Footprint from a note found at one of his explosive crime scenes CES

The new team is Gaston's Greats. These European heroes are the best hunters of men around. Who are the seven heroes who made the cut? CES

Egon is aware of everything on the battlefield. he is able to pinpoint problems and bottlenecks for his comrades, reduce penalties for darkness and smoke with his awareness for others, and track targets in his range wherever they go. He does not carry a weapon. CES

Zis 2, the second hero to bear the name Zis, can punch through the hardest obstacle with relative ease. He tends to look for an opening and then punch, but his defenses are poor. CES

Everyone should have all their picks in. I screwed up the recap. My last two options are Lt Mike Harrigan LAPD, and Royce. CES

This was a finished movie before Disney bought it. They put no money in it, and asked nothing from the director. Anything they get from this will be kickback on the money they gave to buy fox's entertainment division. CES

option Dutch the first person to ever kill a predator CES

How was I to know I wasn't supposed to talk on the internet like that to one of my bosses CES

Will do recaps tonight. Everyone should have six picks plus base CES

Man you guys grabbed all the good aliens right off the bat. I actually thought about picking the ST bugs when I saw Psybolt's pick. I am going to pick Predators as my alien. CES

You should have your organization and base, and five picks, Bazza. CES Good one, Bolt CES

I'm picking Johan Krauss as my smart guy. My team is done. CES

And the Doc has grabbed up the Wolf Man. Who wants the Invisible Man on their team? CES

It's Sunday afternoon and it's time for a recap. I know promised Friday night/Saturday morning but I was wiped when I got home from work so the recap was the last thing on my mind. First order of business is Pattern Ghost's picks are back on the table. So CONTROL and Mt Rushmore are pickable for agency and place of base operations. So this was start up list for the draft: The first thing you need is a base of operations and a sponsoring organization for your monsters The next things you will need in no particular order is a five monster team of monsters 1) The Big Guy 2) The Brain 3) The Shapeshifter 4) The Historical Relic 5) The Leader (who can be the token human on the team.) One Alien as the enemy Three optional choices for weapons, other monsters, other aliens, particular humans So going into Monday, everyone should have sponsor and base and four picks. My sponsor and base is Project M and New York. My four picks were Rick Flagg as the leader (Suicide Squad experienced), the Kraken as my big guy (water capable, bigger than most boats, lot of tentacles) Tohru as my shapshifter (shapeshifting dragon capable of magic, flight, launching a human sized projectile into orbit), and Imhotep as my relic (the mummy with magic powers.) I need a supersmart monster to fill out my roster, and then the enemy alien and my three options. (I might go with x the man with x ray eyes and Deadshot for two of those slots, but x doesn't seem to be monster enough. I might have to do some research.) Psybolt grabbed Monarch and Derry, Maine for his sponsor and base. He has Pennywise for his shapeshifter. He picked Jekyll and Hyde as his leader (I am glad he didn't reverse those). Seth Brundle is his brain (Shades of the Original Fly and Dr. Cockroach). And he picked George the Gorilla from Rampage as his big guy (The second giant monkey in the draft at this point) So Psybolt is caught up for the second half of the draft with only the relic left for his team and his enemy alien and three options Dr. Mid-Nite came out with the Science Patrol from Ultraman as his organization and Setayga as his base. The Red King, also from Ultraman, is his big guy. With the Mummy out of the picture, he still needs most of his team to be put together, and his alien and three options. Cancer picked the Forge as his alien fighting agency with a base in Antartica, home of the mountains of madness. Typhon, the father of monsters, is his big guy. He grabbed Humbaba from Gilgamesh as his Leader. He grabbed Vucub-Caquix as his relic. I'm saying that Cancer's theme is monsters from ancient peoples. Next, we have Log. His sponsor is the SGC's rivals and enemies, the NID based out of Washington. He came out with King Kong as his big guy. He picked the Robot Monster as his brain. The Olmec is his shapeshifter. The Golem is the relic for his team. Logan's team needs a leader, and then he is set to run for Alien, and his three options. Bone Daddy grabbed MIB and its undersea base. He picked the Judas Bug from Mimic as his shapeshifter and the Blob as his big guy. So he needs the rest of his team; Relic, Leader, Brain, his Alien enemy, and his three options. Hermit comes in with the Organization from Cabin in the Woods, basing its defense of the world from Transylvania. His leader is Dracula. His big guy is Smaug. He needs the rest of his team; relic, brain, and shapeshifter, and his alien and options. Lucius Alexander has two picks so far. His base is the Fortress of Solitude in the Artic and his organization is the Monster Squad led by Gopher from the Love Boat. His big guy is Frankenstein's Monster. He needs the rest of his picks to fill out his draft. Some thoughts on the draft so far. We have two dragons and two giant gorillas in the draft. I think Cancer is going to pick one of Lovecraft's alien races as his enemy to go with the ancient monsters he has been picking. I think Mid-Nite will pick one of Ultraman's enemies, but could see him pick Ultraman himself as the enemy. I had thought Psybolt would pick more King monsters but his picks have thrown me. We have all the universal monsters picked out except for the Wolf Man and the Invisible Man (if the Invisible Man qualifies as a monster. If someone picks him, I am not going to disallow it. I may pick him myself because I need a brainy monster.) We still have twenty two monsters that need to be picked. If you have to pick a nameless species to fill out your quota, I think you should go ahead. CES

Already picked him Friday CES Sorry PG. PG's picks are back in the pool CES I don't think I like the reply merge CES

We're taking a break for the weekend. I'll do a recap when I get home. But it's after 12 so I'm picking Amenhotep as my relic. You can't go wrong with your Mummy CES

None of the pick team can be an alien, but I'm making an exception for you and Log's picks. The alien is the villain of the piece. So when you get your team together which alien are they fighting? CES

I got a big guy and a shapshifter. I need a brain, a leader and a relic. I'm picking Rick Flagg as my leader CES

Just you know we're picking monsters to fight aliens not alien monsters so the Kaiju from Pacific RIm are out CES
