[quote=@Fallenreaper] [b]*braces to be chewed out or torn to pieces* [/b] [/quote] I'm sorry but when did you think we started caring about your [b]opinions[/b] [i]noob[/i]. :P Anyway.... 1)There is still no ETA on the upcoming system changes on Mahz' side for the ranking system. So, his current one will suffice as the global system, and I, or another, will handle the season by season rankings. Wagers will be nixed in terms of points, however you can still bet a weapon or item. A)Don't have much to say about this really. 2) There has been talk that the current T1 system doesn't work for most, or all, of us. I am wondering why no other system has been proposed, or much talked about. When we wanted a different tier system we got one, though it sort of fell in our laps. Is that what we are also hoping for here? A)I think T1 one is perfectly fine, its just that most people have no real understanding of it really. For example, the prep section is what is really confusing people. I mean people seem to think you can [i]charge[/i] any thing. When in fact the truth is - as far as the Eden version goes- you only prep abilities that specifically NEED preps. I also think only one ability should be allowed to be prepped at a time. Common sense does not really cover that, as one would believe if they have a separate generator, that system should be able to charge up alongside another ability they have. (Mostly true when you start introducing advanced technology really) 3) In terms of tournaments, I am an advocate for one of the following: 3a) Either accepting the GM's acceptances or 3b) Gms offering a discovery phase wherein all tournament participants can chime in on characters before the matches start. Once matches start then there should be no mention of folks being OP. It really detracts from the actual matches, and in one point, caused one person to drop out. We have to trust that the GM knows what he/she is doing A) I agree with there being no complaining long after characters are accepted and matches start, specially later into the tournament. To this effect, I think we should just ban argumentative British people. :P 4) What changes would you like to see in next years ranking system? I am in favor of everyone fighting everyone once, instead of cycling through the same few people. It'll open up people to new fights and keep people from farming points from one person. A) A cycling system might be interesting but how would you go about implementing it and what form would it take? Like a cool-down time before you can fight that person in a ranked match again? 5) I am still looking to host the Rookie Tournament, but there are also plans for me to move so my internet access may be dodgy around Thanksgiving and forward. I still want to do a preset character tournament, in terms of powers, but leave physical attributes open to the character creators. A) I feel a tournament is not the way to go about getting new people in. To ruble with new folks is you have no idea if they can even be reliable. A few dropouts in a tourney can be disastrous. 6) What other types of tournaments would you guys like to see. or would you even really like to have the rankings continue? A) would need to give this one some thought. I think mid, low, and high tiers have all be done already at some point between new guild and old. 7) ALso, next month I'll make the thread for the Super Card in December. Has anyone else wanted to join it? I'm confirmed for the show, but not sure who I'll be facing. I think Skally and Melon are set to battle each other there as one of the main events. A) What is this super-card? 0.0
