I PMed Nich about a ruling. I'll make my pick as soon as I hear from him which I'm assuming will be tonight.

In general you can take something general or specific and it takes all of that type off the table, similar to the video game rule


Example: if category were plants, you could take pine tree or douglas fir but either way all pine trees would be off the table for rest of draft

I think Aicirt's is way too generic. But whatever

Re: POG on Tap: Round 1 - Fun and Games

With the first pick of the Fun and Games draft, I'm picking the slam dunk #1 overall pick.:

Spoiler:






Poker is the reason why we came to 2p2 and discovered POG. It is the GOAT game. Skilled players win in the long run, and there is enough luck to keep the games good for the skilled players. With various betting structures and different poker games, the flexibility is enormous.















I could go on and on, but everyone here already knows enough about how elite this game is. I'm lucky to be able to pick it.

Poker obviously isn't a bad selection, but i think it's huge spew at #1 overall.

And I'm assuming I can't take Nintendo video games or strategy board games, despite them being just as generic as poker.

Strategy board games is a genre so not pickable

Nintendo games isn't a franchise

Poker is a card game, there are just many variants

Use common sense imo

This is going to be no fun if it turns into an ultra-competitive angleshoot-fest.

Re: POG on Tap: Round 1 - Fun and Games

Poker seems like a good #1 pick seeing how mad krayz is that he can't pick it.
