All right. I figured I'd start a new topic for this than do this in the DTT: Championship thread. I figure this way it will get more traffic.
Anyway, instead of just another tournament down the road, I want to propose a Dream Team League, complete with divisions, a draft, trades, playoffs, and the like.
First on the agenda is a fantasy draft to start off the League...
There'd probably (hopefully) be at least 16-20 teams if it actually happened and getting all of the team's "owners" together at a certain time would be extremely difficult; especially when they are spread out in different time zones throughout the world.
I have been toying with the idea of having each "owner" give an auto pick list similar to Fantasy Football. For those of you who aren't familiar with an APL, each person would submit a list of as many characters as they wish. When the day of the draft comes, and they are unable to make it, the highest character listed in their APL would get selected when their turn comes around.
In example, if I am picking second overall and my top two characters on my APL are:
1)Thanos
2)King Thor
If Thanos is picked #1 overall, then since he's next in line, King Thor would be my choice. And it goes on like that until all teams are assembled.
And if I did do a draft, the set up would still be the same (1 uber-Marvel, 1 uber-DC, 1 regular Marvel, 1 regular DC, 1 regular Marvel or DC, and at least 1 has to be female).
Separate lists for each category (i.e. Marvel Uber & DC Uber) would be cool, but I'd still need one big list. That way, if a bunch of the uber characters are already gone, and the person picking 16th would rather have a regular character, like Batman for instance, he/she could take Batman instead and get one of the left over ubers the following round(s).
As for the picking order, I'd do it the same way I pick the matchups for each round. I'd print out the team names, put them into my Indiana Jones hat, and draw them randomly until there's none left to draw.
