Welcome To The 21/22 Flyers Board NHL Mega-Mock Draft Reboot SUPPLEMENTAL SUPERGROUP 2 SUPERDRAFT!
Here we go again, picking a Second Supergroup. Remember that these are musicians we actually want to hear, not piles of shit we want to shove down the throat of Chuck Fletcher before kicking him in the nuts to make him throw them up so we can punch them again, or words to that effect. Control your spite and don’t let it spill over into this draft.
I just pasted the rules from the original supergroup draft, except for one paragraph where I explained something about this second one, so read it if you can, and if you can’t, get someone to read it to you, milord.
THE SECOND BAND
So here’s the deal - you are making your own second supergroup. I’m not going to sit here and tell you how many people you should have in your band, nor am I about to tell you what kind of music they should play, but we have to have rules (now that we have lost all of our standards) or guidelines or parameters or whatever. I want you to think about this. If you pick a trumpeter, for example, that means that you will have trumpet in basically all of your songs, because otherwise he or she would just be standing around feeding the ducks. Do you want all your songs to have trumpet, or can you live without it? That’s the dilemma. If they play trumpet in addition to something else, then you have options. If you have five guitarists, can you live with yourself when you have basically recreated the f***ing Eagles? Curate, edit, craft your group carefully.
So what we are going to do is say that you can have BETWEEN THREE AND SIX total members of your band. That means that different people will have different numbers of picks, but that’s OK. Part of this process is the strategy of prioritizing getting your stuff before someone else can snipe it. Members of bands and groups (KPop etc.) which have already been selected are NOT eligible for this, but members of bands whose songs have been selected ARE eligible for this list unless they were already taken in something else (no duplicates).
So using my stuff as an example - you cannot pick Mac McCaughan, the singer and guitarist from Superchunk, because that is my team band, and you can not choose singer Jennie from BLACKPINK, because that is my wife and my KPop group, but you could choose Japanese singer BoA because she is just the singer of my excellent, stirring minor-league goal song.
Here is the other thing - you can only have ONE MEMBER PER BAND FROM REAL LIFE. Let’s use the Beatles as an example, since they are already taken and this won’t constitute pick-tipping. If you choose John, you couldn’t choose Paul, George, or Ringo, because they were all in the Beatles IRL. We can also only take ONE MEMBER PER BAND FROM OUR FRANCHISE. So I can only take one member from Superchunk, and one member from BLACKPINK. See what I mean?
HERE IS THE DEAL WITH THE SECOND SUPERGROUP: You can’t pick more than one member from any band, just like before - that part hasn’t changed. But you can pick a member from a band from whom you selected a member for your first group. It sounds more complicated than it is. For example, I took Hope Sandoval from Mazzy Star in my First Supergroup, right? I could choose another member of Mazzy Star for this Second Supergroup. Someone else could take a member from Mazzy Star, too. But once we pick a member of Mazzy Star in this phase, we cannot pick a second member of Mazzy Star during this phase. Get it?
I apologize for this huge block of text, but it is worth it so we can get it right. This is an extremely cool category, and an exercise I have been doing in my head for years, so I am very happy Asnito suggested it. A couple of you aren’t hugely into music, I think, but we have run out of hockey shit to pick for the moment (which is a relief to many of us). If you have any questions just ask me, but learn to read first if you haven’t already.
So here are the rules:
- 3-6 members
- No members of bands or groups already taken
- Members of bands that do Team Songs, Team Albums, etc. are eligible unless otherwise taken (no duplicates)
- Only one member per band from real life per franchise
- Only one member per band that we already have as part of our franchise
- When you pick you have to tell me what they play and/or if they sing (just like an album’s liner notes), but you don’t have to tell anyone you are finished picking band members until you are finished with all your picks for this phase. That way no one will know if they have to hurry to get their band member before we get to you - it makes for more exciting strategy. This category is going to destroy mja’s mind, which is hilarious.
- We will give our supergroup a name at the end of the phase.
