What should we add? More franchises? Or something different like DLC or media device?

Maybe another console and a franchise?

[CopperTom]

What's a media device?

[Norah]

Franchises.

no changing the rules at the 11th hour.. we agreed to the terms before we started

The 5+1+1+1 criteria would have to be met first. You would be opposed to drafting more franchises? We added a round or 2 to the last video game tourney too.

I think we've added more rounds to almost every tourney I've been in on this board.

I wouldn't want to add non franchise picks, since it was part of the strategy when to go with those, knowing your opponents have or have not already picked theirs. But adding two more franchise picks is just more fun.

Halo
Uncharted

Uncharted was on my list too.

Copper Tom most likely has secured my vote.

It's complicated enough to look at everyone's team and determine its value as a whole.. no need to make it more difficult

I’m with tree. Let’s get this going i don’t want more rounds to have to pick

I’m hoping this doesn’t count as a controller bit an accessory. I’ll pick the guitar hero guitar

Definitely counts as an accessory in my book. Good pick. Was on my list.

I think the "spirit" of the competition is unaffected if we add more rounds of franchises. Honestly, I was expecting a few more participants when I spitballed this so there still some A / A- franchises out there. Adding a console now could have altered your picks when to draft your first console. So I would not be in favor of adding another console, controller or peripheral. I would have loved to add a handheld requirement but there's really only 7 successful handhelds - GB/GBC, GBA, DS, 3DS, PSP, Vita and Game Gear. Too few.

I'll see what Ello and Ruddo say too.
