I outlined it clearly for my fellow admins, so I'll do the same here.
1. The order will be randomized. Please submit here if I am not already aware you want to take place in the draft.
2. It begins this Thursday at 12 PM EST.
3. Every person is given 18 hours to make a claim before being moved to the back of the line. If a valid reason for an extension is given within an hour after their time is up, they will be given extra time.
4. 20 claims are allowed no matter a title being team or not.
5. Writers will have till the end of July to post their first issue.
6. Titles can be freely discussed within the actual Draft thread.
7. Most characters can be claimed despite the title. For example, Adam Warlock could be claimed in a Midnight Sons title or a Guardians of the Galaxy title. However, someone like, say, Dr. Doom could not be claimed in Midnight Sons without the (if any) F4 writer's permission and Spider-Man could not be claimed in an X-Men title. Obviously this is still fairly ambiguous. Cases will be dealt with on a case by case basis.
8. New writers are allowed to join the draft mid-draft but they will be pushed to the back of the line.
That's it for now. This thread may be updated between now and Thursday.
Also, expect a new rules page by next Friday (8 days after the draft begins).

I'm sure it's obvious, but I figure I'll post here for posterity. I'm interested in the draft.

I would like to participate, but I'd also like to be last, if I could.

I will probably keep (or at least try to keep) my old title, but given circumstances there's probably a few tweaks And additions I need to make.
Not sure if that means I just keep my old title or apt to the new draft.

However that would work with my x-men idea.
I know I'm rusty, but isn't Spider-Man not a mutant?

I see your double negative, and raise.
He was never not even never a mutant.
Seriously, though. He's not a Mutant.

I object to Star's claim.
No one should have claim over someone so infinitely powerful. It's unfair to the other writers. So there's no way he should be able to claim Squirrel Girl.
Also, he should specify whether it's actual Mandarin or a stoned Ben Kingsley.
Also, needs Deadpool to complete the set.

I actually have an idea or two I want to develop, so if no one is averse to my joining in the fun, I would like to be added to the draft...I haven't been writing prose for about 6 months so I might be a little rusty....

We currently have 12 writers in the draft. I'm incredibly excited! This was the right idea!
I've done up a randomized list, but if more join then I'll redo it.
Slight spoilers because it amused me...Sister Grimm, ironically you were randomized to last place. That's all I'll say for now, folks.
