I kind of like the Calibur-X that Snake pitched for me. Just seems like it's still missing something for me. I'll think about it.

Honestly, the only team I've not particularly interested in is Xficient and that's just because I'm one of those people that doesn't really care for either Wolverine or Deadpool.
I think it's excess overexposure from the past three decades for Wolvie and Deadpool seemingly being everywhere recently. I know that's only me, though, and don't worry bout it. @___@'

Reposting mine so it's in an easier place and is ordered by concept importance over draft order.

RetroaXtive
Bishop (leader)
Magneto
Mystique
Beast
Dr Nemesis
Domino
Deathlok Prime
Rockslide
Evangeline Whedon
Firefist

Willing to humor trades for any of the last 3. That being said fairly satisfied with how my team turned out so not actively seeking any. I'm a nice guy though so if any of ya had your hearts set on any of those 3 (seems unlikely!) and can give me something that isn't notably worse for my idea I may play ball.

The good thing about the pitch is that if you have a spark of an idea you're probably half way done. For most writing is no idea > some idea > a fleshed out if not perfect idea. Since we can edit our pitches over time, that's enough to start.

Basically was up until 4 a.m. reading last night after spending a good chunk of the day, damn.

-Finished reading the run of Vulcan comics, confirming my plan is better than the cartoonish caricature he descended into
-Read the latest run of Uncanny 1-22 + Annual and not knowing anything about, uh, his sordid past or any other questionable decisions made over the last 20 years, I've gained a better appreciation for Cyclops too with Uncanny #11 being an instant classic for me

On tap for today: Age of X-Man, House/Powers of X and then X-Men #1... and then it'll be default pitch write-up time... and then it'll be condensed pitch time.

Rules:

1) Players are divided into two divisions. Each round, players will face one opponent in two categories. These categories are: "Fight" and "Pitch".
2) "Fight" matches should be voted on with the following criteria: "Who would win in a fight?"
-Characters are expected to have the abilities (and limitations) from their last living appearance.
-All fights will take place on a habitable uncolonized moon of Saturn where there is a temperate climate, water, air, flora, fauna, etc.
-Teams are kept in an isolated, impenetrable chamber prior to the beginning of conflict and are unaware of their opponents until the fight begins.
-The only directive supplied to these teams is that they must defeat their opponents. If the do not attempt to do so, Earth will be destroyed.
-Voters should consider the potential conflicts within teams as a factor (can characters with negative relationships work together), as well as the intelligence of the characters, resourcefulness, etc.
3) "Pitch" matches should be voted on with the following criteria: "Which pitch would make a better series?"
-All pitches must take place in the Marvel Universe (616). No alternate realities or future skips, etc. It must take place alongside the rest of Marvel continuity.
-All characters drafted must be included in the pitch, although you may simply namedrop them. But no character can be skipped.
-Voters should consider team name, roster, cohesiveness, quality of concept, and whether the team fits with the concept, among any other criteria they wish to consider.
-Voters should NOT consider whether a dead character is suddenly alive in this pitch. Voters SHOULD consider other aspects of team status; if characters would make sense working together, if characters have abilities that are mutually exclusive, etc.
-Pitches should be one paragraph (No more than two).
-Players can rewrite/rework their pitches between each round.
4) Anyone who is not involved in a specific match can vote for either team in either category. The player with the most votes in one of the categories will get a win in said category.
5) After each player has faced seven opponents, the players with the best "Fight" records in each division will face off and the players with the best "Pitch" records will face off.
6) Rosters each week will be made up ONLY of 6 members of the team. Every character must be active against at least three distinct opponents. Every character must also be inactive against at least three distinct opponents.
9) Between rounds, players may make one-for-one trades with any other player.
10) Rosters must always house exactly ten members.

Since Scare re-posted the rules, I want to note real quick that scarlet mentioned towards the end of the last topic that he was changing rule 6 so that characters must only be inactive against two distinct opponents instead of three just in case anyone's trying to make last-minute decisions that might be affected by that difference.

Anyway, apologies for the delay, but here's my team again.

K i just finished House & Powers of X, and issue 1 of the new X-Men run.

Maybe I'll actually stick with keeping up with it - though I probably can't bear doing 1 a month after like 60+ over the past few days - but I definitely love the direction they're going in, damn. Good concept.

Speaking of concepts, guess it's pitch time, hmm...
