Nothing & Everything => Drafts => Topic started by: charlie on June 05, 2008, 02:03:21 PM

So this idea was stolen off of another forum which stole it off of another forum and so on, but it sounds interesting and I didn't participate in their versions so I thought I'd see if there was interest here.
The idea is that you are stranded on a deserted island with food, water, etc. You can only bring a certain number of items with you on the island to spend the rest of your days with. There are different versions we can do depending on people's preferences, but we'll use movies as an example.
So if we do movies, you have to pick your 10 favorite movies to bring with you. The catch is that we will be picking movies in a draft format and if somebody picks a movie before you then you cannot also select that same movie.
Once the draft is done and everybody picks their movies, we have a vote to see who's lineup is best. To be honest I don't really care about this part that much, I'm more interested in seeing people's picks and hearing about favorite movies that perhaps I hadn't thought of watching before, but that's how it worked before so we can consider doing the same thing here.
Generally you have 24-48 hours to make your pick after the previous person, so you don't have to be online all the time. If you miss a pick then the next person can go but you can make up your pick when you get back (but if somebody else picks your movie before you get back you are out of luck). We can also PM picks to somebody to pick for you if you know you will be away from the internet for awhile.
So if we did this would you participate? Which draft would you participate in? Movies? Albums? Lovely ladies? Something else? All of the above? While we like to goof off here please only vote for something if you really want to participate (it's less fun if you participate in Music and then pick every New Kids on the Block album for the hell of it).
If we get enough people for any of the topics I'll start it up. If we get enough people for all of the topics we can start them all up (or do them one at a time).

Chicks and movies for me.
Who is the jackass that picked "other" and didn't post what "other" was?

Check the database :P

:D
I figure other is a catagory, like things that aren't chicks, movies, or music.

For round one I pick TiVo.
For round two I pick a yo-yo.
For round three I pick David Blaine.
For round four I pick omnipotence.
For round five I pick PEZ.
...
You mean like that?
-
As long as you don't consider David Blaine a babe that would work ;)
Honestly, I hadn't really thought about it, I just voted for every option as I'd be up for any type of category.

Does "movies" include Pr0n?
-
It can include anything we want it to include. I've got no problem if you want to include porn, although that isn't really the original idea of it.

This shit is confusing
-
You're confusing.
P.S. I haven't even posted the official rules yet. How can you be confused already??
-
Right now the womens are winning the vote, so I guess we should start with them.
This poll is just to get an idea of who would participate, but the more the merrier so even if you didn't vote for babes you can still play.
Also, if you guys would prefer that we do the movies at the same time we can start that one as well, but otherwise I was thinking of waiting until the first one is done.
-
C'mon ethic, you should play. You'd be good at it. If you don't understand it just ask about what's confusing. There are a lot of "rules" but it's pretty simple. Everybody picks their favorite movie, but you can't pick a movie somebody else has already taken. Best movie list at the end (based on a vote here) "wins".

can't vote :( but I would do movies and video games...maybe cars

ok wtf is going on?
