New Game

I was thinking of a new version of our game where you couldn't pick the most popular or higher priced picks. It would definitely throw a wrench in everyone's plans, make them change their strategy, and get films picked that would otherwise not be. I'm not sure exactly how to go about it, but here's a few options:

-Not allow anyone to pick a film over a certain dollar amount ($25 or $30).
-Not allow anyone to pick any of the top five highest priced films.
-Have a "pricing panel" type system where we ban certain films (In a July-Sept league, I'd have definitely banned Boyhood in ultimate).
-I'll can pick them each time.

I was thinking of just having four of each BO and ULT a year (every three months). It shouldn't be any harder than any other league.

I'm in.

I feel like this is inspired by the fact not picking HTTYD2 will give you a boost this summer.

Honestly I can barely keep up w/ the amount of games we already have. I would have to pass on this, sorry W.

I set up the league in case anyone wants to play. The rule is no films $20 or over, which eliminates Guardians, Turtles, Gone Girl, and Sin City. It's called Mid Major ULT #1 (until I can come up with a better name) and it is a public league.
