I too remember evaluating the Coachella lineup as if My Chemical Romance was on it.
Read the Coach thread. Tons of talk about whether or not eating the fee was worth it.
I remember. And you could discuss at the end of this draft whether or not dropping Aphex Twin was worth it. Doesn't mean that we'd pretend Aphex is really on their lineup if they did indeed drop him.

So the analogy is to analyze whether or not losing a 5th and 6th round selection and losing that potential quality boost was worth dropping the acts for realism. Not pretending we still have them... if we decide to go through with this.
I'm in favor of letting people drop picks for whatever reason they want. If someone made a mistake by drafting someone who ends up not fitting, then that's fine. They still spent the money on that pick, so to speak.
Shit, just say you discovered that some of Aphex Twin's album covers seem Satanic and that it violates your view of morality. No anti-Semites or devil worshippers on my lineup, no thank you!
I'll take them off your hands for ya. All about dem Satanic Vibes.
Considering you've found the need to respond to my threads as if you are threatened by me I offer you some peace my confused counterpart. May you find peace in your restless soul.
people have always been able to drop acts from their lineup as they please, dont see why there is an issue here at all. they'd be taking a major loss on a 5th round pick, thats punishment enough.
but to reiterate, i am one of the people that think an Aphex Twin LN Which set could be pretty sick, even if it makes you lose out on some realism points

I obviously agree, but against my hopes this turned from a game of "what would you do if you were booking Bonnaroo next year and had access to any eligible act," to "what 5 rare acts would you fight for if you were an unpaid intern that was occasionally able to speak with the current bookers at the water cooler"

i mean just do what you want and make your argument on why it's good or not, it's not that deep

Its certainly not a huge deal in my life. My job is consuming and difficult. Thats more deep to me.
But if I'm spending the amount of time required to go through this game and half the voters have already decided they are going to rule us out because of one ELIGIBLE act on our lineup, then it does become pointless for me to finish out the game.

Its certainly not a huge deal in my life. I'm more focused on trying to get national brands to buy TV-Visible signage from the NFL team in the smallest market, that's second best season in the last decade was last year at 6-10, and has no treasured history or dedicated fan base to speak of.

js i've felt from the first day that Neil Young / Frank is easily the strongest 1-2 punch in the game. there probably isn't room for all 3 of Coldplay / SOAD / Aphex, but i really do think there is a winning lineup in there.
