What time zone is that hyyyper?


As always, deadlines are by site time. Not sure if it's Eastern or Central time, but it's the timestap on each post that we'll be using for deadlines and stuff.

Yea Hyyyper, the post times are local to each account, the site time is Central or CST, so use that.

Ah, well. In any case, 24 hours is still 24 hours, so everybody can simply add 24 hours to the timestamp of a player's post.
I will remind everybody that once the draft starts to set their time zones to CST, so that there are no confusion.

Also, on the homepage, the most recent forum post times ALWAYS show up in CST, no matter what your time zone is set to, so be aware of that!

Alright, the sign-up deadline has passed. Now it is time to pick the random number.

*drumroll*

The random number is 42!
http://i.imgur.com/MYFDbeE.png

This means the order of players is as follows:

1.. Pad
2.. bigjoe97
3.. hyyyper
4.. devilsrule911

5.. mkingy
6.. jdmi012
7.. Coasterkidmwm
8.. deere839

9.. aj74205
10. Jer
11. Bottom_Feeder_13
12. AmatsuNL

13. TTD03
14. titanrocks01
15. Paradox
16. Ckidd

17. TheCoasterMan589
18. Bouncypip11
19. LuckyK
20. GavG

21. Coaster Hero
22. afro85
23. CoasterGuy2000
24. slosprint

The first round will probably start somewhere between 12 and 36 from now, so you have a bit of time to mentally prepare yourself or sort out some coasters you'd like to pick on your first turn.

Remember that you will be disqualified immediately if you miss round 1.

Quick question before we get going - if I pick Dragon Challenge, can I run it dueling, or am I stuck with how it is?
6 out of every 10 Reese's Pieces are actually Reese's Fragments in disguise.

12 and 36? Do you mean 12 and 36 hours?

You get it as is. The same counts for trim brakes and special effects. So no airtime on Raging Bull and no Yeti on Expedition Everest.

That's disappointing.
One more - Mantis or Rougarou?

Can we come up with a whole park theme and surrounding area? I have a great name for a park, but there are requirements I have for the name.

^^ Mantis I would assume. Rougarou technically hasn't opened yet so it's like picking an unopened coaster.

Here's a link to last year's draft for anybody who wants to see an example before we get started.

As jdmi012 said, Rougarou has not opened yet, therefore: Mantis

It's not forbidden, but it's only for funs. The eventual scoring is done pure on the collection of coaster you'll have gathered.

Ok, lets get this party started!

The picking order for round 1 is:

1.. Pad
2.. bigjoe97
3.. hyyyper
4.. devilsrule911

5.. mkingy
6.. jdmi012
7.. Coasterkidmwm
8.. deere839

9.. aj74205
10. Jer
11. Bottom_Feeder_13
12. AmatsuNL

13. TTD03
14. titanrocks01
15. Paradox
16. Ckidd

17. TheCoasterMan589
18. Bouncypip11
19. LuckyK
20. GavG

21. Coaster Hero
22. afro85
23. CoasterGuy2000
24. slosprint

This means Pad, bigjoe97, hyyyper and devilsrule911 now have 24 hours from the timestamp of this post to make their picks. The next group is up when all 4 players have picked a coaster, or after 24 hours.

Here is a short recap of the most important rules:
-In each group of 4, the player on top has priority and will always receive the coaster they pick. Other players in that group will have to provide back-up picks. The amount of back-ups required is equal to the number of players with a higher priority that haven't made their pick yet.
-NEVER EVER EVER EDIT YOUR POSTS. Or, at least the ones with your picked coaster in it. If such a post is edited, the pick becomes invalid and you might miss your turns. If you made a mistake, typo, or forgot to include a picture, park name or link: MAKE A NEW POST.
-The picking order will be reversed each round. The last group will be the first group in the next round. Keep this in mind so you don't miss your turn.
-I will be using the Coaster Crazy time zone (also known as Central) for each deadline. To prevent any confusing, I highly recommend changing your personal time zone to this one.

Have fun!
