After a years hiatus I think it's safe to fire up the old Ultimate Draft again. I'll be done with my school year next week and the Historical Draft seems to be winding down. Looking to to limit it to a dozen teams. First come, first serve. Please be sure you're into it before committing. If you feel you're inclined to take this thing seriously or get competitive please stay away from this one.
Please see categories etc...below.
--------------------------------
Some rules and regulations:
This is not a serious competition, so please don't make it competitive. It is a creative activity.
The basic idea is to create a "team" by choosing within the categories and going for a certain set (or sets) of characteristics.
I don't see any reason for there to be a big hurry on the draft, but I also don't see there to be any reason for anyone to be particularly hung up on the difference between one pick and the next. Sooooooooooooo....If it is your turn to pick. Take your pick. If you are next to pick after the currently slotted pick and 1 hour has elapsed since the last pick you may make your pick. The person who missed their pick may then pick at any time. Again, this is not a competitive thing, so please don't sweat it if you're pick is skipped.
Duplicate picks are not allowed.
No trades.
Going to add the rule that God in any form is unavailable.
