Delph's League of Champions Season One Discussion Thread

no prob, glad to help. As a spectator, I enjoy seeing the tourney go as smoothly as possible.

btw, the 24 hr limit was just a suggestion, so you should see what the competitors think is a reasonable limit.

In fact, I do agree with the 24hour limit on posts... fine with me, waiting games aren't my cup of tea.

Leo's match is enjoyable. I'm awaiting for Digi's rebuttal.

Maybe there's post #4 from me to come, which may as well turn into generic scanblitz.

Kudos leo. I'm sure we're giving the crowds a fun match. Now kick your partner in the ass and get him out here too. Maybe I'll get lucky and he'll post while drunk like he did in our first match.

I'll post again when I can, which may or may not be today.

no worries--scoob was supposed to post tonight he said. i didn't think i'd be able to but a friggin blizzard has kept me inside all day with nothing to do. 😮 that will DEFINITELY be all i can do today though.

hopefully our match makes up for that other "match" taking place.

btw--was a time limit ever agreed upon? maybe set a final day post limit of 1 or 2 to avoid getting blitzes at the end? i actually think the idea of a post/day limit is a good one, as opposed to a straight NUMBER of posts, then set the deadline at say, 7 days. that WOULD prevent blitzes and ostensensibly punish those who never use their quota because they would in effect be LOSING posts.

i'm not gonna lie--i like that idea A LOT.

I do too. Might be something that can be implemented for the finals. MB had a similar idea, but it was slightly different. It's on the right track as well, but I think I like your idea a bit better.

let's see what the boss has to say on the subject. i know scoob will be in favor of it as well. i'm gonna go on a limb and say cdb would support it. that would leave smurph.

I'm not against that idea at the slightest.

Hey Delph, is it okay if I start debating in place of blair/smurph?

😆

when did this tourny thread get so long

So, we have on the table:

1. Starscream's idea of instituting a clause where if a team does not offer a rebuttal/response within a given span of time (24-48 hours), the match ends and goes to the judges.

or

2. Leo's idea of setting a time limit (7-10 days) with no post quota, with a limit on the number of posts allowed on the final day of the match (2).

Which of these do participants prefer?

I'd say option 2, but then again, I'm not a participant.

Starscreams. Since it forces members to act, yet within the post limit. It pressures members to come up with quality claims.

Just modify leo's to include a max 10 post total clause. Then I'm for that one. It keeps the current format entirely, but with a limit on final-day posting. Starscream's punishes people with maybe 1 psychotically busy day out of the week.

Also, I think only people still involved in matches should be voting on this. I appreciate input from others, but it doesn't affect them.

Nyet. 'twas a joke, or at least something that would never be approved.

my idea was to have a post quota of 2 posts/day for each day which would make possible 14 posts, but the limit of 2 would prevent any blitzing on any particular day including the last.

m's idea--while good for adding incentive to keep matches going, does nothing to prevent post blitzes at the end of matches. or am i missing something?

Agree with leo. Assuming he speaks for his partner as well, and I believe we have Charlotte's backing (though we'll wait for her to chime in) we like leo's idea. SM's idea doesn't prevent against post-blitzing, and also hurts members who may have a very busy 24-hour period.

I'd still like to see the max 10 total rule modify leo's rule (so 10 per match, and no more than 2 per day). But otherwise, I'm for what he said.

May count me in, guys... time limit for matches with no post blitz allowed in the final day is nice thing for tourney and really prevents blitz-wins.
