And with regards to the draft, we'll do it the same way as the wrestling with regards to # of rounds; we'll make it the max possible shows a person do. Let's say we go with the Sun-Fri 8-11 concept; that's 18 hours, theoretically someone could draft 36 half hour shows so that's the # of rounds we'll make it.
Most people will be done before then, but that works for number too, 36 round draft, 4 round supplemental for specials, midseason miniseries, etc.
I think that's the idea. Its in theory 36 rounds but only if you draft 36 half hour shows. For every hour show you draft that's 1 less round you need. If you draft RAW then its 3 less rounds. Its 36 rounds but only until you max out your schedule.
Or don't do either. If you can't find an image you like at either than don't force it. Just give me something you like and which will look good on the board.
I'd like to partake as well, but I will not be fantasy booking my network for an entire year or anything.
Yeah, I hope not. I can only be soo lazy before you start making me feel bad... ;D
It would amuse me if next year Byrne did a women's fed or Texas fed. I'd just like to see how he tries to make it a dark, demonic, ECW homage led by James Mitchell or Raven. -- Lucky, 2009

Again, might I suggest a cap at 16 if you intend to do a showdown at the end? Will make that easier/fairer. Of course if you're not sure that will happen and/or the priority is more people enjoying this you can keep going and deal with an uneven tournament.

I'm not gonna cap it yet just cause we have a week before I'll even consider doing a draft order. And I know 16 is a "perfect" bracket but with the soccer guru BC around I can basically give him any # of teams and he'd find a workable tournament format. There might be some 3 way dances with 1 elimination. Maybe a 4 way fray with a double elimination. The possibilities are endless.
So, I want to see if anyone else has interest before I cap it.
Hopefully tomorrow, I'll start updating the main post or create a rules thread, but for now keep the ideas coming and we can decide on anything.
I am going to make the executive decision of a Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday lineup of the 8-11 PM hours, to be chosen in a 36 round draft, immediately to be followed by a 4 round supplemental.

I'll vote and I'll comment on the shows I known, but I won't participate in the draft. You guys watch way more TV than I do. I wouldn't know what to draft after the 4th round.

The supplemental round will be for specials, miniseries, maybe some daily shows could be added here. I'm going to name drop a bit here but just to give an idea of what I was considering acceptable for the supplemental: The Awards Shows, Special Sporting Events, V, Roots, Civil War, and I'm slightly considering this a place where maybe we take a Leno, Letterman, Colbert, SNL type show as well.
I'd like some ideas on that as well.
My goal is to get this to 24 people because that's a number where brackets can be manipulated to work. Psychofish would be 19, and I know I can convince someone else to join, but I would still like to find 4 more people.
Just going from the wrestling draft and people who said they had an interest in that, I should probably contact AA and Karmic because they might consider this. I know Moose won't because he doesn't watch a ton of tv, but Lucky...if you want to ask anyone from OO, be my guest, I know they have some tv viewers over there.
