Shit. I would've loved in on this.

Just take Blindy's spot. He's not even in it.

Actually, I'm having such strong deja vu I'll sit this one out. Vaguely recall doing this before and drafting a near perfect roster. I'd just be shooting to repeat that.

I added System to the list

From the sounds of it, Blindy isn't competing in this, so if you want Big Pete you can still be in.

Go for it Big Pete, if there's an 8th person absolutely needed, I can do it but work is killing my schedule :lol: I miss the work from home life.

Blindy OUT

BP IN.

Let's do this.

Here's the draft order, I'll get the draft picks thread up shortly.

The official draft pick thread is up, sandylea has the first draft pick.

Big Pete yepped back in here as fast as he could!

Once he knew Blindy 's illegitimate claim to being part of the Hateful Eight was not possible he started his plans like Thanos when Odin died.

Lony always siding with the wrong Mario world.

I side with the one I play every year.

Emperor is no longer the GOOD doctor.

Stop saying it @pete Davidson

#HeelDoctor?

Probably isn't even a metalhead!

Now now, let's not get carried away.

Question for the host Lony.

Are we doing a tournament after the drafting?

Yes.

Single elimination.

Exactly the answer I wanted. Thank you.

No way we're doing round robin because PW has that kinda attention span!

Reason I asked was because all our recent drafts have been one poll with all the participants. That would have been lame.

But now that you mention round robin, fantastic idea. I'm game.

You say this, as you drafted the 1b Mario game, in Super Mario Bros. 3.

Emperor, It's your turn. You're running out of time.

Emperor, with a fantastic pick in Cuphead.

Also, despite what it looks like, I'm not gonna just draft SNES games. Although I could totally win this with just draft picks from that system.

I'm @x-zeros 8th pick.

Fuck what's the tagggg.

Shame for the failed summoning. And I am going to get Tony Khan as the hype man for my final pick then draft something slightly above average.

DKC2 and RE4 not in the top 10 picks? What are we doing!

(Good draft so far fellas, been keeping tabs on my commutes back and forth)

DKC2 was possibly next for me. Was worried when the OG was snagged. But then I thought against it for Red Dead because drafting for me never works. It's about the consumer.

I thought about taking Donkey Kong Country 2 in the first round, however, I couldn't pass up taking my all-time favorite game in Super Mario World.

I've come around on DKC in recent years. Before I saw it as a rough draft and the series would go onto bigger and better things. However I find it easier to get into than the sequels and the game is fairly consistent through out. Both DKC2 and 3 have higher highs but there's some levels I can't wait to get over and done with. I feel like Krazy Kremland really does a good job of exemplifying it. The abandoned theme park levels are great, the bee-hive levels suck.
