2009 Infini-Tropolis Film Draft: Draft Board - Page 5 - Infini-Tropolis.com

KamuiX · 04-15-2009, 07:41 PM

It's just about that time to kick off the inaugural Infini-Tropolis Film Draft!! We hope it proves different enough from other drafts to give things our own Infini flavor, so everyone that has played these before gets a unique experience.

Before I reveal the draft order, I'll go over some rules first:

Drafting goes in order of the below list. That is, the person at #1 picks a film, then #2, and so on until we reach #30. At that point, #30 picks two films in a row, then we go backwards with #29 picking a film until we reach #1 again. #1 then picks two films, and we repeat the process until drafting is finished and everyone has a list of 15 films.
You have 12 hours to make your pick. If within 12 hours, you don't make your pick, you'll be skipped, and the person next in line can then make their pick. Any picks missed will be made up at the end of the draft. If you miss your pick THREE times, you're out of the draft. If I find that the 12 hour rule is making a lot of people miss their picks, I'm willing to extend the period to 16 hours.
If you see your turn is coming up soon, and you don't think you'll be around, please PM me or someone else playing the game that you trust with your pick so they can post them for you. This prevents holding up the game and also prevents you from getting a strike (and openly mocked). If you think your top pick is in danger of bring taken before your turn comes around, send a couple back-ups just in case.
In the event that someone does miss their pick three times and is thrown out of the game, any picks they've made are dead.
Once you make your pick, DO NOT edit your post!! If I find that you've done so (outside of fixing an error), you'll automatically be tossed from the game.
This thread is for DRAFTING only. Discussion about the draft can be done here.
Since we have only 30 players, I'll figure out how the tournament will go once we get there.
After drafting is over, we'll have a week-long break before the tournament begins so people can catch up and watch some films they haven't seen.

I think that about covers it. If you're new to the game, don't be afraid to ask questions, the veterans will be more than happy to help you out.

The only other thing is, to keep things uniform with how we post here on the forums, please format your picks like this:

Film Title (Director's Last Name, Year)

Example:
Martyrs (Laugier, 2008)

There will be prizes for both the winner and, thanks to Caustic for the idea, the most diverse/creative list, as voted on my the members of the board. The prize packages are:

GRAND PRIZE DVD PACKAGE

One brand-new copy of Late Bloomer courtesy of Bone House Asia
One brand-new copy each of The Bloody Ape and Blitzkrieg: Escape from Stalag 69 courtesy of Wild Eye Releasing
One brand-new copy of Splinter courtesy of Magnolia Pictures
Two more DVD's TBD
