1. Go here to compose your roster
   
2. Pick FIVE (5) shows, one from each network while using only ONE of the following 4 methods of picking your roster of 5 shows:
   

If above graphic doesn't show,

1. 1 show from #1 to #10, 1 show from #11 to #25, 1 show from #26 to #40, 3 shows from #41 to last place
   
2. 2 shows from #11 to #25, 1 show from #26 to #40, 2 shows from #41 to last place
   
3. 1 show from #1 to #40, 1 show from #26 to #40, 3 shows from #41 to last place
   
4. 2 shows from #11 to #40, 4 shows from #41 to last place
   

3. Your strategy is to pick the shows that'll rank the highest in each of the next 4 weeks
4. You get bonus points for picking a show that attracts more viewers in a week than its season average and in any DVR weekly top 20, if noted
5. Don't duplicate another forum member's 5-show roster

This particular game will last 4 weeks from April 28 to May 25 - winner of this game will know if they win on June 21, 2008.


Deadline: Tuesday, April 29, 2008 7:59a.m. EDT

NOTE: Although I created this game, I thought it fair to have a 48-hour waiting period for myself to post my roster in order for anyone else to get first chances at the list of shows. You can make your roster right now; the earliest I can post my roster will be this Saturday, April 26 at 10:45pm EDT
