Alright, I have 14 of 16. One person abstained, and another is either abstaining of just didn't get them into me. Before I reveal things, I just want to thank you for participating. This is probably the most fun that I have had on the forums in my decade here. Lots of fun discussions were had, and I have already picked up one game with another few maybe in the mix as well as recommendations through the selections. You also made my job easy by holding each other accountable, which is something that impressed me. I hope that the few rulings I made as arbiter were fair and did not upset the balance too much.

I'm slightly alarmed that I got three different noms in Most Surprising Pick, particularly that it was my first three picks, and most of all about Brass.

I’m happy to run away with the popular vote. A goon draft for the people.

I didn't vote for Dog Cop in the straw poll because I haven't played most of those games. However, his list has the most games I want to try, so a worthy winner.

Was this a case of everyone voting thinking, "I can't vote for my own list so I should vote for the worst one to improve my own odds. Wait! I'll vote for the second worst in case someone else has this thought."?

Can we get the Rutibex score of everyone's picks? Who has the best overall price/weight ratio? (note: don't actually do this)

Best Explanation Gutter Owl - Magic Realm 3 Very legit. Best Value Pick T-Bone - Brass Lancashire 2 (giving it here because ketchup is one of the 2 that didn't vote so his score is slightly inflated) Getting a bit of a free ride here because of the rules misunderstanding, but he did get 4 of the votes for best value. Most Surprising Pick cjpsmith - Arkham Horror 4 Tekopo - Zendo 5 Arkham Horror is an atrocity, Zendo was clearly the most surprising pick. Picking Arkham Horror wasn't a surprising pick, it was just a terrible pick. Zendo caused everyone to spazz out and post memes and was pretty wild. Best Collection: Bottom Liner 9 Chill la Chill 10 Dog Cop 19 Gutter Owl 11 Most Stylish Collection Chill la Chill 11 Cthulhu Dreams 12 Gutter Owl 19 I don't understand why my collection is stylish? Most Well-Rounded Collection al-azad 10 Bottom Liner 8 Cthulhu Dreams 8 Dancer 9 Tekopo 12 Gotta pay this. Draft Scores Dog Cop 11.5 Gutter Owl 11.25 Close

I had fun doing this. If this happens again, I would prolly sit it, and I hope others who participated this time round will as well, just to see what other people come up with after you get through the top 30 or so games. It doesn't help my list that I was just making quick picks because I was swamped at work or dealing with the worst part of a head cold when my turns came up, so I could keep the draft moving instead of bogging down like it did with SOME people. You know who you are . Edit: Or a "reverse draft" would be interesting, try to draft the worst games and see what people come up with.

# ? May 3, 2019 15:09 |

Reverse draft would not be interesting me thinks because you could pull like 20 variants of Munchkin or Rutibex's grick clone or someone's homebrewed SPANC but without the American censorship!!! . If someone could work out parameters for an auction, that would be fun, but good luck there.

Do another goon draft but ban all of the SA top 100 or any game newer than say 2013. That would be neat. SAgoons on BGG for the rankings https://boardgamegeek.com/collection/user/SAGoons?own=1&subtype=boardgame&ff=1
|
# ? May 3, 2019 15:41 |

I have more than enough clearclaw favorites to draft for a non-top 100 anything - unless Neuland has suddenly become a favorite. Auction would work like lost cities rivals but it would be way too much for 14 players.

I did a lot worse than I thought I would. And so did the list I voted for as best. Guess my taste is wildly different! I think a 'worst game' draft could work, but would need a minimum number of reviews or something to differentiate between 'real' games and lovely one-off clones/cash-ins.
|
# ? May 3, 2019 16:22 |
|
I think the way a worst draft would work the best is restricting choices to a subset of good-ish games like BGG top 1000. You can’t give the absolute worst games, but there are so many terrible games that it wouldn’t be interesting if they were allowed.

A worst game list wouldn't work because whoever picks first will go with Time Stories and instantly win

al-azad posted:A worst game list wouldn't work because whoever picks first will go with Time Stories and instantly win Munchkin + CAH combo would beat anything. The main problem with a terrible games draft is that I've played some obscure terrible games that are going to be obscure because they were terrible. So in essence we'd be picking mediocre games that are perceived as terrible because we compare them with good/great games. But while Munchkin is a terrible game if you have any kind of standards, there are some truly terrible games out there that are a lot worse.

# ? May 3, 2019 18:14 |

I was thinking with less rigid rules regarding what counts as a "copy" and what doesn't. So all of the -opoly games count as 1, all of the munchkin games count as 1, all of the CaH clones count as one, and so forth and so forth.

# ? May 3, 2019 19:05 |

The only humor in a worst game draft would be someone taking round 1 Zendo after that it'd just be a lot of "yep, that's a lot of bad games"

nimby posted:I did a lot worse than I thought I would. And so did the list I voted for as best. Guess my taste is wildly different You had the best pick in the 3rd round, closely over AoS. First round was a brutal choice between you and T-Bone. I looked to see who had the picks most agreeing with me (best pick per round, but slightly adjusted for overall variety), T-Bone won 3-2-2 so there was no rchandra clone in.

Go the other way and have a draft from just Monopoly, Munchkin and CAH clones.

Well, people were trying to have diverse collections so it might be interesting to see what truly unplayable, unheard of and forgotten trash people could dredge up. I mean, I would still probably first pick What Do You Meme?, but then you gotta mix it up with stuff like Mag Blast and Harbour. Thinking about this makes me realize that it's been a while since I played an actually bad game. The secret tech first pick might be Machi Koro.
