Nicο Posted May 20, 2015 Report Share Posted May 20, 2015 Well... I'm close to consulting the RNG goddess anyway since it's fairer that way. Ah that is true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~British Soul~ Posted May 20, 2015 Report Share Posted May 20, 2015 Ah that is true. Well in any case since I found two replacements, I'll defo resort to the RNG Goddess if any of the 6 on my list want out. (I wouldn't be surprised if that happened tbh) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spinny Posted May 20, 2015 Report Share Posted May 20, 2015 Have Orakano Duston and Zaziuma been picked yet? If not, I'll nominate those two if they wish to enter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Flyer - Sakura Posted May 20, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 20, 2015 For those of you who didn't want to be nominated, that's perfectly fine. If you voted for a member who didn't want it, just change the nominations accordingly. (Though with that in mind, I'll go ahead and edit the post accordingly) I'll just change my Fusion one with Cherry (provided she wants in). ---- As for the 48 member cap, I was going to go for 64, but not sure if we had enough members to do it. If there's interest in having more, I'll push it to 64; otherwise things will stay as they are. Voting-wise, public is intended to be used (just so we can check if people are multiple accounting just to vote for themselves or another member). Remember Blazikengate from GPT 2? ---- Kano is in, but Zazu isn't nominated so he's up. Right now, 47 people (so one more person and we can start this) @Agro: I didn't add your milk/cookies nominations since I have no clue who they are. So yeah guys, just use their usernames so it's easier for us to figure out who they are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~British Soul~ Posted May 20, 2015 Report Share Posted May 20, 2015 Sakura, just to let you know, you skipped Tenta's list of nominations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Flyer - Sakura Posted May 20, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 20, 2015 I thought I added his, but guess not. (But fixed anyway) Up to 52 nominations with that in mind. So yeah, we broke the cap (which I thought wouldn't occur); so that'll just mean 5 of the R1 fights will be 3P. ---- Think I'm going to shut off nominations now, and just randomize the matches.

Agro Posted May 20, 2015 Report Share Posted May 20, 2015 If you want a suggestion, Sakura, based on my experience hosting this event and seeing how the Pokemon thing went: You REALLY need to cut down on how long matches are. These first rounds are probably fine, but they don't really need to go 2 days, and if the Pokemon thing is any indication, anything more than 2-3 days is going to be too long and not garner any more votes than 2-3 days would. The semifinals and final match of the pokemon tournament didn't have a single vote cast in the last 24 hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Flyer - Sakura Posted May 20, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 20, 2015 Because British is having his tournament also, I need to make sure his matches still remain on page 1 while active. It used to be 3 days, but I reduced it to 2. More/less gives time for members who haven't voted in day 1 to get a chance (although it can backfire if a large surge of votes goes the other way). ---- In any case, you're up against Toyo in this fight, so...

Agro Posted May 20, 2015 Report Share Posted May 20, 2015 I don't really have any intention of paying much attention to this thing anyway, it's just something to keep in mind when we get to the later rounds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Flyer - Sakura Posted May 20, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 20, 2015 If there's enough cause to warrant mercy rule, then it'll go. But yeah, Creator was getting wrecked when I voted, so... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agro Posted May 21, 2015 Report Share Posted May 21, 2015 Wait to see how many people vote total for these first few matches, then decide on the amount that the mercy rule should be at, but only have it go into effect once a certain number of people have voted. You can decide how many votes the mercy rule and threshold should require once we know how many people are going to be voting on these things. YCMBV had matches that went 22-21 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Flyer - Sakura Posted May 21, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 21, 2015 I know from the GPT that we needed at least a 10-vote lead within 6 hours after posting the thread. (Well not for 2-13, since it was ended within an hour or so). If by the time I check on the thread again, and Creator still hasn't gotten another vote; I'll end it early. Or I can opt not to do mercy rule and have it run its course, but then it'll be torturous for the losing member OR they can mount a miracle comeback.

Fusion X. Denver Posted May 21, 2015 Report Share Posted May 21, 2015 Thank you for thinking of me JK and Nico, but yeah I'd rather opt out if that's alright. Creator's one of the greats, he just isn't active around the site anymore (which makes me wonder why he was put in considering rule 3, but whatever).

Thar Posted May 21, 2015 Report Share Posted May 21, 2015 Thank you for thinking of me JK and Nico, but yeah I'd rather opt out if that's alright. Creator's one of the greats, he just isn't active around the site anymore (which makes me wonder why he was put in considering rule 3, but whatever). He stops by now and then, enough to be relevant. Though if the member has to be active, then I can nominate someone else. Also, couldn't help but see that I'm one of only 3 who made it in out of 52 so far... weird.

Not-so-Radiant Arin Posted May 21, 2015 Report Share Posted May 21, 2015 Hi there. I think it's awesome to whoever nominated me, but like Black, and Birdie, I don't want to be seen in a popularity contest. Just giving you guys a heads-up~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thar Posted May 21, 2015 Report Share Posted May 21, 2015 I'm the one and only person who voted for Creator and that was by the whims of a magic 8-ball. I voted for him as well. I blame the Stockholm Syndrome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Flyer - Sakura Posted May 21, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 21, 2015 2 more people voted for Creator besides you and UE. But yeah, Mako does have an overwhelming lead. @Arin: That's fine, I'll just remove you from the roster and rearrange the match you would've been in. Thankfully you weren't first round. ---- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mitchermitcher Posted May 21, 2015 Report Share Posted May 21, 2015 I mean, I'm glad I got nominated at all(ily2rod) but this ain't exactly my thing, so I'll ask to opt out too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Flyer - Sakura Posted May 21, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 21, 2015 Alright then, we're down to 51 competitors. Though you would've been in the third batch anyway, so plenty of time to withdraw. --- Anyway, if those of you who were nominated and have not been placed in your matches yet wish to opt out, then please note it here.

Someone really should mass PM all the people nominated to make sure they're okay with it. Besides those already in matches. I would do it myself but there's things I need to get done before I leave for the day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
