The Setup
You have been given the opportunity to curate the initial lineup for a festival in competition with thirteen others. Anything can be selected regardless of mortality, activity, existence, tangibility, or intelligibility. If you can type it, then it is eligible. Winners will be decided by a poll or something
The Rules
1) Once an item is drafted it is unavailable to anyone else.
2) No more than three banana related items can be drafted for each festival (bananas, banana cream pie, Bananarama, etc.) It is highly recommended you draft your banana maximum.
2.1) If you draft "fresh air", you automatically instead draft "The Shitty Beatles, from the 1992 film 'Wayne's World'"
3) A maximum/minimum of two superjams are allowed and required. These will be selected after the draft is complete and can only include items on your lineup. The superjams must be given a title.
4) Disputes handled via poll. Upon confirming receipt of dispute request, a poll will be put up and run for an arbitrary time limit. However a poll may not be put up if i forget. Drafting will continue while the poll is running. It is unlikely the poll response options will make any sense, and the results of all polls are nonbinding and subject to further polling or debate.
4.1) If a poll is deemed a “bizarro” poll, the poll will follow bizarro world rules.
5) Once we have thirteen participants, draft order will be randomly generated for the first round and will continue as a snake draft. (I.e., the person with the last pick in the first round would have the first pick in the second round.)
6) Each participant will have a maximum of one to twelve hours for their pick. If they miss their pick, they will automatically draft the 2008 American fantasy romantic drama film “The Curious Case of Benjamin Button”. As you would expected, “The Curious Case of Benjamin Button” can be drafted infinite times.
6.1) Jake Jortles may be skipped if he does not make his selection in 22 minutes.
6.2) nah you can still draft something
7) When you post your selection, identify what the pick is using your words. All drafted items must be typable and identifiable using a standard english language keyboard. In addition, tag the next person after you and the person going after them to keep things moving.
7.1) The smell of rainwater on concrete/asphalt, aka "petrichor", is the same everywhere.
7.2) Beer is alcohol but it's cool to draft both if you want.
8) Trades are allowed. All participants must verify the terms of the trade. (Note: Trades are subject to dispute. In the event that you don’t like a trade, a participant can call for a poll [or a bizarro poll] on the validity of said trade.)
9) Jay-Z may be drafted as a pairing with any item.
10) Thirteen rounds of drafting (EDIT: unless we do more or less.)
11) If you are going to draft a bear, draft a grizzly.
12) Any rule changes prior to the start of the draft will be decided by me and updated in the OP. Feel free to suggest additional rules. post them here or txt me on my cell bro.
12.1) Any rule changes after the start of the draft will require a majority “hat made out of meat” vote in a poll (unless it is a “bizarro” poll). The poll will be open to all members of inforoo, and the results of the poll will not be honored.
12.2) trades are allowed but don’t bother me with that shit. And don’t anybody get cute with anything.
13) Feel free to nominate/assign/vote on as many “refs” (or “bizarro refs”) as you feel the draft needs. To nominate a ref simply tag them and give them a very special ref nickname title. Refs cannot be participants in the draft. Bizarro refs must follow bizarro world rules.

2) No more than three banana related items can be drafted for each festival (bananas, banana cream pie, Bananarama, etc.) It is highly recommended you draft your banana maximum
Nice. This is ridiculous, I'm intrigued and 99.9% down.
7) When you post your selection, identify what the pick is using your words. All drafted items must be typable and identifiable using a standard english language keyboard. In addition, tag the next person after you and the person going after them to keep things moving.
This sentence is conflicting. My agent will help explain lol
The weird thing is that I don't even think I'd have to choose Pink Floyd or The Beatles in the first round in this one to win this game, maybe it's because of the rules.. Maybe
