List topic: Yes I'm bringing this back.
« on: September 04, 2008, 04:24:50 AM »
Just been kicking it around for a few days. It's been a while and we've added a lot of new duelers since the last one Dekar ran. 128, eight fields. Same format as before, pretty much. I have enough for all four fields, though Godlike/Light are a little thin.

Should I use much Not ranked this time? I'm going to use WA5 and maybe a little P3 as well. Anything else? Maybe Cloud of Darkness and a few FF3 classes? Any other suggestions? Heavy's pretty packed, so there's not much room there in general.

Requesting some Mana Khemia as it's the only Gust game worth mentioning.

Maybe The World Ends With You? It has an awful lot of fans...

Honorable mention for SuikoTactics and slightly more obscure characters from ranked games (like SaGa and Brig non-mains!)

Mm...more NR's good. I just finished updating the LoM and FM3 stat topics, so I'm interested in seeing how those guys fare out. Although in terms of Godlikes, MKs the only one that has godlikes that come to mind. Lights are fare game in anything else though. How much NR...you probably have a better grasp on that then me. I suppose a pure NR division is out of the quesiton though.

NR's good!  I can vote on DL stuff... IN THE DL!  Yeah, don't need much more of that.

Mana Khemia's a good idea, but all of the PCs are in either Middle or Heavy.  Maybe some XF too?  More variety in divisions there at least, and you can use the Godlikes without worrying about spoilers.

Mix it all a bit.  You could always hold a nominations contest for people, so that the top...20 could get in automatically or something.  I don't know.

Just balance it.  Too much from one game is boring, but it helps keep interest if it's not just all DL stuff or NR stuff.  Get some older and odder stuff too. 

Suggestions...well, the obvious ones already.  OS, FFX-2 (well, ranked, but...)...can't pick too new stuff, sadly.  I'd like to see LaL, PQ, and others as well.  TWEWY would be fun for migraine inducing joy. 

Oh, and ARCANA >_>

Seriously, though, just pick a spread from everything.  You need some obscura for fun interest, but the majority should be a mix of DL and NR, probably 40-60 or so.

It's going to remain mostly a DL tournament. The NR I'll use will be a handful and mostly things that are likely to be ranked. I'm not using any true obscura, the list format does not work at all with low vote draws.
