The Simpsons Character Draft

[CanadianGuitarist 0]

* PM the next person when you've selected.

* Eight-hour window is in effect.

* Any Simpsons character ever is eligble, regardless of how much or little they've been on.

* No couples or groups together; one at a time only. Sorry.

* The NFL Draft rule is in effect. If time expires for a draftor, he or she does not lose their pick, they simply lose their priority. If anyone misses a few picks, we'll look at eliminating them, but no one can "lose their pick".

* Justify your pick. Have some fun with it.

 

CubanLinx has the final pick in the draft.

I'm more excited to see who I will pick in the later rounds. But since I have such an early pick, I'm going to have to go with the star of the show, America's Favorite Bad Boy.

 

Bartholomew Simpson

 

[Mecha Mummy 0]

So I imagine I'm going to get some "wait, really?" reactions for this one. But as I've thought about it all day, there's really only one character where if I didn't get him in this draft I would be truly be upset, as it were, and while I'm sure my colleagues in this draft will be spending their first picks on characters who weren't one-shots... eh, whatever, I gotta be me. So with my first round draft pick, I'm going with my favorite one-shot character in the history of The Simpsons...

 

 

Hank Scorpio

[Youth N Asia 0]

"wait really?" My ass, he was my round 1 if he lasted

[Mecha Mummy 0]

Man, I'm glad I didn't wait on him, then. I guess I just sort of assumed that most people would be gunning for major recurring characters in the first round.

[Scroby 0]

I was actually going to try and pick Homer as Max Power, but since I couldn't really find any good Max Power pictures, I just went with plain Homer J Simpson.

 

Good pick though.

[TheFranchise 0]

I never get a top two or three pick in any draft, MAX POWER would have been my guy too.

[HollywoodSpikeJenkins 0]

Nice pick with Scorpio.

[Boner Kawanger 0]

Scorpio!

He'll sting you with dreams of power and wealth

Beware of

Scorpio!

His twisted twin obsessions are his plot to rule the world

And his employs' health

He'll welcome you into his lair

Like the nobleman welcomes his guest

With free dental care and a stock plan that helps you invest

But beware of his generous pension

Plus three weeks paid vacation each year

On Fridays the lunchroom serves hot dogs and burgers and beer

He loves German beer

 

All off the top of my head

[Prophet of Mike Zagurski 0]

I wanted Mr. Scorpion, I mean Mr. Scorpio.

[CanadianGuitarist 0]

Rando, have at 'er.

[TheFranchise 0]

Tough luck? He made his pick, or have I missed something?

[CanadianGuitarist 0]

You must have missed something; I don't know what you're talking about...........

[TheFranchise 0]

LOL.

[TheFranchise 0]

I believe you meant to say Rando missed his pick, JJ have at her.

[DrVenkman PhD 0]

When did Rando miss his pick?

[TheFranchise 0]

The pick before Rando was over 12 hours ago.

[HollywoodSpikeJenkins 0]

About an hour ago.

[JJ Johnson 0]

In all of his murder-attempting, election-rigging, rake-stepping glory.

 

 

Sideshow Bob!

 

You want the truth? You can't handle the truth! No truth handler, you! Bah! I deride your truth-handling abilities!

[TheFranchise 0]

"Attempted murder, now honestly, what is that? Do they give a Nobel Prize for attempted chemistry?"

 

No one who speaks German can be an evil man! Parole Granted!

 

[DrVenkman PhD 0]

By my watch, Rando still has 9 hours, 16 minutes until it's 3:07 AM eastern.

 

Edit: But of course, that was using CG's posted time (which somehow became a 24 hour window). It definitely was JJ's turn, and now it's Mattdotcom's turn.

 

Edit again: Ok, I assume "Rando - 3:07 am" means he became active AT 3:07 am. I read it as his deadline. Working a 16 hour shift (and being awake for about 16 hours prior to work) really messed my sleeping schedule and trains of thought up.

 

Carry on, everyone.

[TheFranchise 0]

Yeah, that's how I get around the whole time issue.. just look at when posts were made in relation to your own time.

[Gert T 0]

Sorry to interrupt the thread, just PM your answers, but if people do want to participate in an episodes draft, I will run it. Send me a PM if interested.

 

 

Back to the thread, I love the pick of Scorpio, I don't think I would have taken him first round, but he is an AWESOME character.

 

 

[JJ Johnson 0]

Sugar? Sure, here you go. Sorry it's not in packets. You want cream?

 

Um... no.

[TheFranchise 0]

..I didn't even give you my coat!

[Nighthawk 0]

This is going to be the awesomest draft ever. Calling it now.

 

Like it? Look in your closet, there's a pair for you!

 

Don't like it? It's gone!

[TheFranchise 0]

This isn't a Scorpio quote, but its from his episode, and I love it too much, given the context it's said in and the timing of the line.

 

Let me get this straight: we're behind the rest of our class and we're going to catch up to them by going slower than they are.

 

[CanadianGuitarist 0]

I believe you meant to say Rando missed his pick, JJ have at her

This is indeed what I meant to say. Board is updated.

 

Scorpio is a fucking fantastic pick, and I thought Sideshow Bob would slip under the radar enough that I could scoop him up. I'm back to the drawing board.

 

[TheFranchise 0]

Good call on the eight hour ruling.

[DrVenkman PhD 0]

There are so many one-shot characters I want to pick, but that seems like a wasted pick to be so obscure. The flip side of that is I have no idea how winning or losing is determined in these.

 

Quick questions: The Hank Azaria "Wiseguy" characters and Squeaky Voice Teen variants - each one character, or several?
