So, we have come up with a new system to make Mystery Shows more fair to everyone but me.
The idea is called Mystery Show Roulette. It's kinda simplistic really.
There will be a section of the forums for this. In the section, there will be a different tread for each week. In this tread, anyone that has a show that they want to show in club will post it and it will go onto the list of shows. The shows will be numbered in order of submission.
When the club meeting for that week comes, everyone brings their show along with them (or has access to it online legally) and then I roll a whatever die has the appropriate number of sides. Whatever number comes up will be the show we watch that week. When next week rolls around, we repeat the process.
All shows must follow the guidelines that we set forth. These guideline will be posted later and sticky-ed.
I've started this thread to hear what you guys think about this. Depending on the reaction, we may not be making this happen. So, please post your comments or concerns.
*Edit So it has come to my attention that the randomness is too random for some people. It favors people with this shit called... 'luck'. I've heard of this elusive thing but alas, I am unable to produce it. So the new rule will make it so that everyone gets their turn.
If your show has been picked by the Wheel, you are unable to submit something new until everyone submitting (or wanting to submit) at the time has gotten their chance.
This does not include special events, like Shinemen (ones basically requested by the club in general)
This was Kasey's idea, so it's not like I'm just bitching about having not seen my show. It hasn't become a problem, but I think it's more fair this way anyway.
