Claim Your Episode Tournament

[LRae12]

Ok, this was a game we played a long time ago back on Buffyworld...probably named differently, though...

The idea is to have a tournament of episode battles but with each player representing an episode.

How it will work is that there are 254 episodes total between Buffy and Angel. Every one will be assigned episodes on a first come, first serve basis.

First, I need you all to sign up to play. Once I get a list of how many will be playing, I'll know how many episodes each person will be playing with.

For example, if 10 people sign up, each person will have 25 episodes (with 4 episodes left over).

We will play single elimination rounds. Each episode you have will be assigned a number, not known to anyone else...when the numbers are called, those episodes will battle it out. If your episode loses, then it is eliminated. Once all of your episodes are eliminated, so are you and you will not be the winner of the tournament...you may still vote of course, but you just won't win. The winning episode crowns the tournament winner.

So, what I need from you all right now is to just sign up to play....after a day or so I'll post instructions for how you go about getting your episodes...

Any questions, just ask!

Let's play!!!!


Episodes BOLDED are still available (but be sure to check the few posts above yours in case I didn't get them updated)

[Nostalgia]

Oh, this seems really fun.. Sure I'll play..

I know Dead Things is mine..

[Ojuice5001]

I'm in.

[Jenni Lou]

Okay then.

[ShinyFirefly]

Me, me, me

[skinless]

I wanna Play too.

[holypotatoes]

I'm not sure if I get how this game is played but OF COURSE I'LL PLAY!!!!!!!!!! I better get ENEMIES.

I kind of hope I don't get Angel episodes though. Mostly because I don't watch Angel so I might be lost.

[Pandora's_Box]

I'm in......

[carousel_girl8]

I'll play

[Chosen1]

I'll play! Yay!

[debbiefm]

Count me in too...sounds like fun

[sherrilina]

I'm in! And of course you know which epp I'll be claiming... (Hint: Rhymes with Earth Day! )

[BlasterBoy]

ME!

I'm not too late, right? I hope I'm not

[LRae12]

Ok, so we have 13 players....

Here's how we will decide who gets what eppy...

Like I said in my first post, it's on a first-come first serve basis...you signed up in the following order....

1. LRae12
2. Nostalgia
3. Ojuice5001
4. Jenni Lou
5. ShinyFirefly
6. skinless
7. holypotatoes
8. Pandora's Box
9. carousel_girl8
10. Chosen1
11. debbiefm
12. sherrilina
13. BlasterBoy


So, we will go in that order choosing episodes...There are 254...everyone will get 19 and there will be 7 left over that will be eliminated right off the bat.

After you see the person listed above you choose an episode, feel free to choose yours so we can get through the choosing process quickly. I'll try and update the first post in this thread as often as I can to keep you updated as to which episodes are left unclaimed, but be sure to check the first post, and the few above you to make sure it's free.

Once everyone has chosen their 19 episodes, I'll give you all instructions on where we go from there....


So, since I was first up, I'm going with Innocence

Next up, is Nostalgia...

Also.....in order to keep this moving quickly...if you do not post your episode pick within 24 hours of the person above you, you will be skipped and will have to wait until your turn the next round where you may pick two. I think that's fair, and it won't hold the game up for 6 weeks just to pick episodes.

[Nostalgia]

I'll take Dead Things

[BlasterBoy]

Darn it! I'm last Good thing I won't have to say all the good ones are gone

[BlasterBoy]

Since some people aren't here, can we just, not go in order? That would be interesting....

[BlasterBoy]

Am I talking to myself? Man, I think I am.

[BlasterBoy]

It's like I'm a robot. A cool robot that loves awesome episodes! How 'bout that? Can I be a cool robot? Not temperature wise, but, ya know, cool.

Maybe I should stop?

[sherrilina]

Okay then, but if anyone picks my epp I'll beat them with a shovel a la Willow....
