SCATTERGORIES Season 18 (full) Topic

Scattergories, Season 18

Scattergories is a "blind draft" league in which teams are built with owners submitting lists like the table-top party game "Scattergories."

In Round 1, all owners submit a list of 12 players.
  • Any player submitted by only one owner becomes part of that owner's team, exclusively.
  • Any player submitted by two or more owners is eliminated from the player pool.
In Round 2, each owner submits a list of players equal in number to his remaining roster spots.
  • For example, if you submitted 4 unique player names and 8 duplicates in Round 1, you would make an 8-player list in Round 2.
  • If you have 9 players after Round 2, you would submit a list of 3 players in Round 3, etc.
This process repeats until all 12-man rosters are completed! (It normally takes 5-7 rounds)

Rules
  • Owners may submit their Round 1 ballots via sitemail to beloud as soon as they're ready.
  • I have my Round 1 ballot ready, and I will reply with my ballot to the first 3 submissions each round so you can verify that everything is on the "up and up." (I will also reply with my ballot to any owner who requests) Please title the subject of your smail "Round 1 Ballot, 1st Rd Ballot" or something similar.
  • Beginning Round 2, owners will have a maximum of 72 hours to submit their ballots. I will be strictly enforcing this rule. Holidays, weekends, etc. will not be excuses.
  • We will switch to a 48-hour time limit to submit ballots once we get to the 5th round (or possibly 4th) depending on how the draft goes.
Please submit your lists in the following format: (Firstname Lastname)

Patrick Ewing
Dikembe Mutombo
Alonzo Mourning
Allen Iverson
Othella Harrington
Greg Monroe
DeJuan Summers
Hollis Thompson
Reggie Williams
David Wingate
... etc.

  • Make sure your spellings are correct.
  • Do not include the player's position or additional info.
  • Do not include commas or use bullet points
  • Do not use last name only or "last name first" format or use nicknames, etc.
  • You do not have to include the player's season. You decide which season to use when you build your team.
  • No salary cap, no clones

Huge overtime win on the road for Be Careful to stave off elimination and set up a Game 7. Vucevic had a monster game. 33 pts, 18 rebs, 8 ast, 4 blks, 2 stls. The Admiral led the way for gerryred's squad with a triple double including 14 blocks!

Be Careful are your Season 17 Champions. Congrats to ty84moss! Vucevic capped off a great Finals series with a triple double (24 pts, 19 reb, 11 ast) in Game 7.

awesome, thank you beloud! I'll submit my 1st round ballot soon.

Different topic- I'm sure some of you have played the NFL football sim. I posted a new theme for an NFL draft in the football forum classifieds. Snake draft. 60 mil cap. no defenses over 30 mil. The player or off/def unit you draft is exclusive to you and off the board. Lets bring back balance and strategy to this football sim.

Topic: NFL Draft League. Can you build a real team? Hope you'll have a look and join!

Gentleman, feel free to send me your 1st round ballots whenever you're ready. There's no hurry as we still need 4, or possibly 5, owners to fill the league.
