I thought of several bad parents reading that thread as well.

Might as well sign me up too. I luvs me some drafting.
edit--Do the standard 4 picks but separate it according to genre (book, tv, movie, games). It helps narrow down what you need to select and we can easily find 16 of each.

I kinda like the category idea - but we also may need a "Misc" category (for things like myths & legends - unless those all go under books, but then I won't be able to use both a myth/legend/folk tale/fairy tale pick except by losing my "awesome" book pick.)|

So setting up 4 categories might be too limiting.

Good idea. Added!
I've never done one of these drafts before and I'm not sure I understand how they work. But I suggested it, so sign me up.

Also you may want to specify when the four groups will go against each other head to head. After round three would be the best minimum time, though final four works great as well.

Thank you MT. I honestly dont watch the show except for clips. With my addictive personality I would love it and have to buy all the music for it and I just cant afford that.

I want to get practice in running a draft, and after some discussion in the obviously related thread, it seems this is the time for first experience!
Be gentle with me, but I think I can handle this.

Outline: Each player will have to submit one parent from each of the following categories: Movies, Literature, Video Games, Television. There will not, however, be four equal winners. As the numbers of remaining entries begin to dwindle, the categories will slowly merge. Only one parent will be deemed the truly worst fictional parent in all of history!
IMPORTANT: Rules subject to change until I say so. Will confirm when the rules are cemented, which will be before the first round of voting.
