Pariah Posted March 31, 2019 Author Report Share Posted March 31, 2019 So . . . I see three possibilities. I could administer a fairly straightforward supers draft in April: Five heroes, location, two villains, two options. Or someone else could run one in April, if someone has an idea they'd like to try. Or we could take April off and shoot for May. Well? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bazza Posted March 31, 2019 Report Share Posted March 31, 2019 Up to you. Sometimes something basic is good. Even if it just a simple: 1 location, 5 heroes, 2 villains, 2 options. Make it no theme, or genre. Each player does their own thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
csyphrett Posted March 31, 2019 Report Share Posted March 31, 2019 Post up what you want to do, Pariah. I can run one if no one else will step up. CES Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old Man Posted May 31, 2019 Report Share Posted May 31, 2019 More importantly, are we skipping June? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pariah Posted May 31, 2019 Author Report Share Posted May 31, 2019 Unless someone can step up and start something early next week, probably so. Sadly, I have 320 hours of lab time starting next Tuesday, so I con't be the one to step up and start something this time. I may be able to participate, should someone else figure out something to run, but even that's not guaranteed. Any takers? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
csyphrett Posted May 31, 2019 Report Share Posted May 31, 2019 I'll take it. Let me think of something. I'll post it on Monday. CES Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cancer Posted June 28, 2019 Report Share Posted June 28, 2019 ... I dunno ... after a couple of decades' experience of handling liberal arts students in my astrophysics classes, I think I could. I've even left out the consideration of the pre-meds in electromagnetism class. Pariah 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pariah Posted June 28, 2019 Author Report Share Posted June 28, 2019 We had a joke when I was taking O-chem as an undergraduate: Q: How many pre-meds does it take to change a lightbulb? A: Five. One to change the bulb, and 4 to yank the ladder out from under him. Old Man 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll check in when I can. I expect to be gobsmacked, so don't disappoint me. Internet access quality has no effect if you use my superdraft methodology: Next draft is announced. Inspiration strikes. A brilliant idea forms. Spend hours researching the perfect picks. Day one: First pick. We're committed now. Day two: Agonize over what to pick next. Choose a pick that is likely to get sniped. Day three: Get sniped anyway. (Alternatively, discover you didn't read the rules for the draft and the whole concept is invalid.) Days 4-8: Sulk. Day Nine: An alternative idea forms. Days 10-20: Work and life intervene. Completely forget about the draft. Day 21: Someone posts a late pick and the draft pops back up on the first page. Day 22: Spend the day reading everyone else's picks. Everyone's team is way cooler than mine. Become discouraged. Day 23: Spend the day researching picks for a new concept. Day 24: By now the draft is effectively over. Day 25: Now that it's safe, post picks 3-12 all at once. Next draft is announced. Psybolt, L.

death tribble Posted July 3, 2019 Report Share Posted July 3, 2019 Just throwing this out there, instead of a supers draft, what about a Dungeon draft ? You specify an owner, notable traps, notable monsters and some history. This is just an idea in the making as I have not worked out full details yet but would there be any interest ?
