I've decided to make this thread so that this season we can neatly acquire the rights to real network pilots. I've decided that each network has request the rights to eight pilots, you can break them down anyway you want between the genres. This is only to acquire the rights, if the network picks it up you loose the rights. And holding the rights doesn't mean you have to or actually will air it.

How is this fair? We should go through a rotation where we each pick one pilot one at a time; not so that you get all the good ones first before anyone else picks them up.

I see your point but no one even announced them yet except me, all I did was edit my picks.

That's true, but honestly, you picked all the good shows that were announced. I'm not even sure if there are 40 pilots. If this is going to be done like you proposed, we should each pick one pilot and go from there. Otherwise, we could announce it via our own forum.

BTW, I really like this idea. I think we should go this route every year instead of us just announcing who gets what on our boards. I think this way makes it interesting and fair instead of someone just claiming a show because they said they got it first. What do you guys think?

I'm okay going in a rotation system, it is fair. I propose we each can pick up 1 comedy & 1 drama for each turn. Maybe we can do 6 shows instead of 8?
How should we do a rotation? We could do MSTV (1st), NTB (2nd) since we were the ones who started this or I can put all 5 in a hat and pull and you guys will have to just trust me.

I like the idea of picking a drama and a comedy as that will make it go by quicker. As for the order, I can PM you a random list of numbers in random order from 1-5 and then have EBN, UEN and TVN pick their numbers. I'm not sure how you or I would be fitted into the rotation but we can do another thing between you and me where say EBN picks two numbers and whoever gets the number chosen correctly, gets the highest ranking that wasn't chosen.
Kind of confusing, but just a thought.

I mean I guess we can pull it out of a hat, you'll just to have to believe me...
Or we can do in order of ratings, either from highest to lowest or lowest to highest. (EBN, NTB, MSTV, UEN, TVN) (TVN, UEN, MSTV, NTB, EBN)

If we go with my hat order it would be like a baseball draft so:
1. UEN 2. MSTV 3. TVN 4. NTB 5. EBN 6. EBN 7. NTB 8. TVN 9. MSTV 10. UEN 11. UEN 12. MSTV etc...

Kind of confusing, but just a thought. We could do it as #1-5 and I can place myself as: 1st since I was the first one to post that I want rights 3rd just so I'm in the middle of the pack

As for picking that number, I can write it in a message that is locked for everyone but me and then open that message for you to see it
