timdraft #4: Movie Category Draft (4 Viewers)

[Mrs. Rannous]

it's probably just so he can search for the latest skips (adding the hash tag means the last nine million times "skip" was written won't show up)

typing "#skip" in the 'search this topic' still brings up all the times "skip" was mentioned..

oh, ok then. Maybe it is a new feature?

The search function prioritizes the posts with the pound symbol.

#skip me for the remainder and I'll make up as I go.

Going to take a slightly gamble since adultery is said to take a lower key to sex according to the judge. However, he did say there are somega good ones out there's.and I feel this is one.

15.1 the graduate adultery movie

I am therefore moving boobie nights to long take.I will provide the take later.

Fingers crossed this works out for me in the end.

yeah. It highlights the word in yellow. It is really for now going forward since towards the later rounds, many people go on skip. Makes it easy to pick up. Thanks to the guys who have done it already. Does nothing more than make it easy for me and everyone else keeping track

That is twice with the one pick away snipe, bub. Surprised this one wasn't taken sooner.

 

[AcerFC]

You know what part scared me in Gremlins. The scene where the mom is in the kitchen with the knife and Do you hear what I hear is playing

 

[KarmaPolice]

That is the scene I would have been drafting. A young KP was carried out of the theater screaming after that part.

 

[KarmaPolice]

Well, AA's rules state the superheroes don't have to be super powered, I am hoping that they don't have to be human so I can have a little fun with the category and take:

17.10: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (superhero movie)

My 3 year old is applauding you right now

I have to admit, it is awesome watching the new Turtles with him. Very happy they are back

"America" from West Side Story- dance scene

One of the most iconic scenes in movie history. I also strongly considered this film for New York, and may switch later. But I'll keep this dance for now.

It hasn't.

Again, if anyone is unsure, please check out post #5. I update it twice a day.

That is the scene I would have been drafting. A young KP was carried out of the theater screaming after that part.

In honor of young KP, I've updated my post to reflect that specific scene.

To be honest, I couldn't remember any kids' movie scenes that scared me. I can easily remember TV (The Incredible Hulk when it first came out, or Bigfoot/Sasquatch from the 6 Million Dollar Man) or non-kid movies...but no kids' movie scenes -- the pick just seemed to make sense.

Sorry. Internet crashed.

[krista4]

I keep looking at the remaining categories and thinking there are no obvious picks I want. Then I get set on something anyway and get into a panic that I'll get sniped. TT and joffer, please don't take my next pick. Thanks.

 

[rikishiboy]

Skip me today, I cannot make up my mind and have decided to sleep on it.

17.16 - Serenity - Outer Space Movie

 

[timschochet]

This draft has moved fairly well so far. Typically, however, around 2/3rds in (say around round 20) the number of skips increase to the point where nearly 50% of the drafters are being skipped. When that happens we usually switch to 2 picks a day at any time. If the number of people asking to be skipped continues to increase in this draft, I will consider making that move.

 

[Tiananmen Tank]

Crap, #skip me for now.

 

[joffer]

#skip if it gets back to me today

yeah, this is why i asked for the #. It makes it easier to determine who is on skip and what we want to do. I would say, keep the one a day but maybe a half hour clock. The pace has been great. No need to disrupt it with people just popping in with 2 a day. That brings it down imo

I would agree - I'd rather see the clock for now.
