The FOFC TV & Movie Death Draft Signup Thread -- Need one more
It's about time for a new movie FOFC Draft, and this time around I feel like we need to kick it up a notch by having a draft dedicated to the best deaths in television and movie.
This will have plenty of spoilers, so be advised in following or participating in this draft you will have things ruined for you at some point. The rules are simple. We have several categories to choose from, and then we put our rosters up for a vote on FOFC. The draft will not be so rigid with time constraints, though it is my discretion at when a pick is taking too long. We can take 12 people for this, with present company included. Here are the subjects: Best Death in a Dramatic movie Best Death in a Comedic movie Best Death in an Action movie Best Death in a Horror Movie Best Death in a Television Show Best Gunshot Death [TV or movie] Best Mele Weapon Death [TV or Movie] Best Explosion Death [TV or Movie] Best Suicide [TV or Movie] Best Serial Killer [TV or Movie] A pretty healthy list to work with here, so it could take some time. If you're not prepared to invest a little more time then the average Draft, then do not sign up. Let's fuck shit up. 1. DeTox 2. Cartman 3. spleen1015 4. larrymcg421 5. lordscarlet 6. Schmidty 7. ntndeacon 8. stevew 9. Radii 10. Sun Tzu 11. Karlifornia 12. AENeuman Last edited by DeToxRox : 04-22-2009 at 09:29 PM. |

That won't stop me!!!! :-D If you're struggling to find people I'm in. I'm somewhat afraid I will slow the draft down if I do it, but I will try to get lists together if you put me in.

This is actually going to be very tough for me.. I don't know if I'm well versed enough to do well.
We'll see how it goes!

Might be interesting if a director and/or character could only be used once.

Updated. If we get two more by the end of the night, say like 10 or 11 pm, we'll go to 12, otherwise we'll stick with what we have.
Since the majority is in let us talk specific rules. I think Movie Franchises should be a package deal. So if you pick Girls Gone Wild 1, then GGW 2-15 or whatever are unavailable as well. We can open it up to directors/actors as well. |

I'm of the mind that the less rules there are, the better.

Even that I would be a bit hesitant about, since there has been a lot of bleed over between movie franchises.

one per TV Series too. No need for any other rules past that IMO.

My preference, if we do decide to go with one per movie series or one per TV show, is that the rule only applies to a single voter, and doesn't take the movie series or TV series out of play for someone else.

That is fine with me. I think this is the way to go actually because horror movies is not really a big category for a lot of people it seems, so if someone picks a popular franchise, of which there are 3 or 4 huge ones, then it'll make things harder for those already with a vague idea of the category. Plus we have 10 rounds, so at 120 picks we could use a little leeway for people. |

I think the less rules the better. If you want to denote for the voters the second and subsequent times a character was used it would be great. So Wish Bear suffocating Friend Bear would be the first usage. Champ Bear drowning Grumpy Bear could be marked with a bolded 2.
