Are we picking the teams first in this thread? Or drafting words first?

we should rand the opposing spymasters itt.

This way the real time word drafts can start as soon as possible.

This may not start for days if we don't do this as efficiently as possible

Good point, no reason not to start the word drafts while the team draft is happening.

DELS vs PRIP

And this thread is for CARL VS NICH:

My suggestion was quicktopic just so that it'll be easy to show people when the game ends, but PM or anything else works

Oh, sorry, I've never played in parallel games before, based on your post in the other thread Carl, I assume the rule is that anyone in one game is not allowed to look at the other one?

In the old games, we were using the exact same lists - so if players looked, they would likely see words that had not been revealed yet. Spymasters could get ideas about how to clue.

In this format, it is obviously not as important. But, I still think people should stay out of the other thread. Who knows, there might be significant similarities in the way words end up getting grouped together.

Agreed that there shouldn't be any looking at the other thread, even though the team lists will be different

Nich and I haven't starting drafting yet.

Curious if this format leads to "easy" lists or horrible lists full of blockers

I was a late bloomer and looked about 12 through most of high school. That, coupled with my natural lack of coordination and confidence, left me well acquainted with the tail end of team captain picks.

It might be good to make a separate game thread for the DELS vs PRIP game because people might need to come back in here and look for rules/info or just say they can sub or something..
