Good stuff, what day are we actually starting this draft? I may have missed it being mentioned.

And just to clarify...Reality Elimination would be for example the singing/dancing ones...and ongoing reality could be one of those on how to dress? The difference being that ongoing reality has new people in every episode, where as elimination has the same group for the season?

HD is just a lucky guy. He's the hottie draft champion

The draft has started and is here:

http://forum.calgarypuck.com/showthread.php?t=64949

Please go there from now on, this thread is closed.

For you newbies, all the rules are there.

Nope. We're going to give 'going straight through' a try.

I think it could work better. Teams at the ends hated waiting 2 weeks to pick. Teams 2nd to the end hated waiting for 1 guy to make 2 picks and than pick again etc etc..

So we're going straight through and if HD loses with the 1st pick every round then I'm taking his hottie title away from him too

For the record:

Comedy (Sitcom) HAS to be a sitcom-style comedy, and Comedy (Open) can be anything, sitcom or otherwise.

I think that's the best way to explain it.

Comedy Open cant be a sitcom.

OH and I forgot to mention.

We need team names! When you make your first selection, make sure you include your team name!

I count 20 categories in your Final list. That's perfect to me.

21st pick in both the movie draft and the tv draft. Just like the 88 and 89 Flames...and what were they? The best, that's right.


I think I might prefer the snake style now, 2 in a row would be good, but that 40 pick wait is excruciating.
