Betty Blue · « **on:** April 30, 2018, 01:04:13 pm »

Welcome to RAWK's very first comedy draft. Each drafter was tasked with putting together a troupe of the down right funniest people in the history of film, television, and stand-up. All people had to be real, rather than the character they'd played or written and one pick had to be female.

Make your choice wisely -

The Poll will run for 2 days.

Chakan (for Carey, Nielson and Williams)
Nick (for Gervais and Candy)
Betty (for Murray and Mayall)

and myself, obvs.

So far impossible. Using my system which involves plus and minus scores, so far most people are getting the same score.

Tricky this. Have narrowed it down to 8! Is it poor form to vote for yourself?!

Not at all, most people do.

I voted for myself, mainly because I think I have the best line up.

LMAO! At Nick trying to pass off as though he's a newbie at draft's.

Haha! Obviously I normally vote for myself in a straight head to head, but this one feels a bit different.

I didn’t pay much attention to the selections as they were being made. Seeing as I picked Bob first up I really should have clocked it and picked Vic too.

Betty Blue · « **Reply #17 on:** April 30, 2018, 05:28:23 pm »

Top 3/4 (depending on how close it is) go through to the final by the way.

Buck Pete · « **Reply #18 on:** April 30, 2018, 05:36:14 pm »

Cheers for sorting this Betty.

I voted for you btw.

Nick and Bobby too.

Titi, BB, Sudden and Pete for batting right down the order with my own personal taste but jeez, well done everyone for solid choices in each. Didn't recognise a few names being an aurl arse so couldn't vote for them, unfortunately so narrowed it down a bit but so close.

Yep moi aussi! But its kinda cool to see the process --- Chakan you were close to making mine dude (had to go with G Carlin in the end)...

I thought Peter Sellers would have been better received, and Jordan Peele for the young uns' --- que sera sera (or if you have sister wives - que soeura soeura)

Don’t really know Jordan Peele, is he the bloke who wrote/directed Get Out?

I know... there were two. Had a buddy of mine who loved one and not the other, but I gave up trying to figure out who's who in 1987

Betty Blue · « **Reply #38 on:** May 1, 2018, 11:59:25 am »

Funny how far tastes differ. My votes went to -

POP for Kaufman (I love that lunatic) and Peter Cook (can't believe we all forgot him).
VivaBobby for Tommy Cooper (huuuuuuge fan), Jerry Lewis and a sneaky soft spot for Jack Black.
El Lobo for Sacha Baron Cohen (gutted he was pinched from me) and Gene Wilder (check out the 'master of the comedic pause' on youtube). Mila Klunis is a bit random though. Where is Wanda Sykes?

Would have voted for Djozer, but couldn't bring myself to give anything to Louis CK.

Hazell · « **Reply #39 on:** May 1, 2018, 12:06:13 pm »

Yeah Chris Morris and Charlie Brooker almost swung it for me but wasn't too sure about the rest.

Surprised no one picked the likes of John Oliver or Jon Stewart or my slightly left field choice of Rhys Darby.
