  • Live Vintage Draft

    So the possibility of a live Vintage Draft was brought up in the last com thread.

    It is possible we could do something like this on an online platform such as Twitch.

    While this is definitely doable, I'm doubting that we can get enough people together at the same time for 3 hours straight ... I imagine it'd take at least 3 hours.

    If there is an interest in this, let me know and I'll see what I can pull together. It would not be happening any time soon BTW. Would need a lot of preparation on order to make sure it ran smoothly. I'd probably also need some help.

    2 questions ...

    Q1 - Is this something you'd be interested in?

    Q2 - are you more likely to be available on a weekday evening or a Sunday? (assuming Saturday is a no go for most).

    Not really...if we're going live I'd want it to be an auction.
    If DMT didn't exist we would have to invent it. There has to be a weirdest thing. Once we have the concept weird, there has to be a weirdest thing. And DMT is simply it.

      Sadly, I couldn't do an auction if I tried. So that's not really on the cards.

          Nah. I like my Vintage Drafts long and drawn out. There's no appeal for me in a condensed 3 hour marathon.

            I should state, this is not a replacement for normal VD's.

              I think it would be a fun experiment if nothing else. If it lasts 4 hours that is about what I spend pondering every damn pick.

                Sounds like fun but I am out.

                  The player pool is probably too small to get a sufficient amount of players together at the same time, even if there was enthusiasm for it, which clearly there isn't.

                  ... and there's too much preparation for something like this to do on a whim.

                    What I'm hearing is you fear battle with THe Feral Slasher in a one-on-one draft to the death ?

                      Heads up Vintage Drafting ... that could be a thing

                      Be careful what you ask for!

                            How would you alter things to accommodate the fact that there are only 2 players?

                            Decades would seem like a good format.

                            But how would you get around just predrafting a team, and executing?

                            There would need to be some kind of gameplay element / mechanic.
