Aim :
To create a shortlist of the best threads in CC

Rules :
6 picks per drafter
24 hours to pick

Winner will be decided by Burgey who has agreed to read through each list and provide a 250 word summary on what he most enjoyed about it.

Presumably this thread will be disallowed given that statistically those words will likely feature twice as much as any other draft thread?

 

[HeathDavisSpeed]

In. This is a topic I can wax lyrical on.

But guys who aren't going to make picks in the allotted 5 minute daily spells can buzz off.

Good thread started by CW's angry ant, wannabe lawyer.

Happy to act as the sole arbiter of good posting on this site. It's a role I am better equipped for than anyone else.

I will agree to accept the position on the basis that those who started threads which I think don't pass muster are banned for six months.

 

[Red Hill]

****ing lawyers, ruining the world and forums everywhere...

 

[Marcuss]

"Angry ant, wannabe lawyer" - so according to your thread I have more character than 98% of the forum, so I'll take it.

I amend the draft rules so that anyone who misses their turn is banned until the completion of the draft. Admittedly this does leave us in an awkward position if everyone misses ago but I'm sure Burgey will mourn the losses of the fallen drafters who are never to return.

 

[Burgey]

I'm liking these amendments

 

[Marcuss]

Holding up the draft is just rude isn't it? And doing so warrants a punishment for damaging forum atmosphere - that's my logic

 

[Burgey]

Yes, yes it is very rude. As has been noted by other forum members who plainly have no spontaneity in their existence, if you have things in your life which impact on your ability to participate in a draft in a timely manner, then you shouldn't volunteer to enter the draft in the first place.

 

[Marcuss]

Nothing should impact on your ability to partake in a draft. Nothing. What's more important?

 

[Burgey]

There's nothing more important.

 

[Red Hill]

What I don't get is people who have no interest in participating in drafts being ****s about people who do....

People bang on about "forum atmosphere" then s****** and act superior to other people.

Whatever. The pettiness is far more **** than someone who likes drafts to run efficiently.

 

[HeathDavisSpeed]

For the record, the only recent draft I've participated in was the Associate Draft. I found that bloody interesting because I ended up finding out information about a lot of unsung players of yesteryear that I had no idea about before; some of whom I picked myself. But different strokes for different folks and all that.

Whatever. The pettiness is far more **** than someone who likes drafts to run efficiently.

But I am superior to other people....

You're allowed to be a dick when a) enough people like you or b) you're a crab

 

[Burgey]

c) when other people are too stupid to understand subtle points, and you have to beat them over the head for it to get through.

 

[Red Hill]

Meh. Whatever.

 

[Marcuss]

Hey, I ran a draft not long ago so meh. The fact I was repeatedly late to pick while running it shows how seriously I take them mind.
