The Universal Draft: Sign-Ups
« on: May 29, 2008, 10:12:31 PM »
If any of you have seen the racial draft sketch on the Chappelle show, this is kind of like that, only it's just a draft of any (real and presently living) person.

Sign-ups are for delegations (so, for instance, the Nox_Noctis delegation). Delegations that sign up can take part in the Universal Draft itself, which will be a turn-by-turn pick of some arbitrarily large (or infinite) amount of people in a constant game of one-uppery to make a really cool group of people.

If you want to give your delegation a cool name, include that in parenthesis along with your forum screen name in your post like so: "Forum Screen Name (Cool Delegation Name)."

Delegations:
  • Nox_Noctis ("Objection!")
  • Skydragonknight ("AllYourPeopleAreBelongToUs")
  • aftercrescent ("The Cake is a Lie!")
  • AlterFrom ("Wait...what?")
  • Optimator ("Those Who Optimate")

It always seems like the barrels around here have something in them.

I call for leaving Chuck Norris out of this competition or having him on all teams. Otherwise whoever goes first wins. :)

You bring up a good point. We'll need to iron out some odd rules regarding people like him before we begin the Draft.

As a side note, back when I lived in the Dorms of my university, I once went about a week using "optimate" as a replacement for about 90% of the verbs I would have normally used.

I want in!  But I don't get it.  Plus I'm drunk right now so it really doesn't make sense.

So someone come up with something for me!  I'll choose the best :)

Sounds like fun.  Of course I too have no idea what the hell this us about so I guess I need to find the Chappelle sketch on youtube.

For Meg: (Unidentified Drinking Injury), if you like it :)  It's like football drafts except with just drafting anyone and everyone.  For no good reason.

I had intended to make a cutoff when I started the other thread, but as it appears that I forgot to do that, I will allow these recent sign-ups.

There will be no more sign-ups after this post though.
