View Profile I will devise and revise the current pt system. Nothing really changes other than the fact that the rankings now have their own pts. Those pts are added to the Antes and the Bonus Conditions and whatnot.
As for your 50% thing, let's put it this way. What would you rather take if your entry "sucks": A sureshot chance that your entry will be creamed by the other guy in the polls 1 on 1, or a chance to be ranked with 7-8 other competitors and rise to 4th place in the very least. You might suck but surely someone may suck WAY more than you. If anything, I doubt people will actually complain as the Forced Ranking is a better deal in hindsight. If you think your entry is amazing then there's no reason to believe you will fall behind.
Also thanks for telling people to vote in those brackets. But I must say, voting for TheOrg "because no one voted for him" seems stupid. I might discount that unless you have a real reason. I hope you and Nikx can get other people in this thread to vote as well.
No problem but did you even read what I said? It's not gonna be a vote-off anymore. It's gonna be a Forced Ranking contest. Every rank will have a certain number of points designated for it. People give more pts to higher rankers. By the end of it, the Top 4 Rankers move on.
Whoa whoa. I voted for the strongest. Either I voted for the strongest or I accidentally pressed acel. Even look at my CnC. I specifically picked the strongest.
And I wasn't complaining about the idea. I actually really like it. I hope you will explain more about the rankings and such when you put it up though

View Profile I will be requiring writeups to go with why you rank people that way so as long as they can do that then it's fine. I won't accept blind rankings.
Of course Hew~! (However I might only be able to grab only one other person who is willing to spend his time as such, but I'll see if I can grab other people.)

View Profile Battle Thread will be made in 12 hours at most. As I said. Which is the time GamerXD8 has.

Okay sounds good.
Now. People of the losers bracket. As Hewitt said, he would like more votes in the winners brackets. Me and Nikx and ty have made some votes, i believe you should do the same. For Hewwy.

View Profile Oh yeah one more thing, in case I wasn't clear: I will only be waiting for BirtDog and GamerXD8. Everyone else who failed the 6-entry cut-off is disqualified. Those are DigKid, Tantalum, and _Ai_
Even if you posted it here in all its incompleteness, you can all forget it. Especially you Tantalum, since you don't seem to show any gumption to finish what you start or appreciation for the hard work being done.
_Ai_ in particular has been Blacklisted for the reasons I have stated above.

View Profile Or more than what Boom has said, for your pride as a writer you could at least sit down to take about 3 minutes out of your day to read and comment about what you like about certain pieces :]
It's only a cup a noodles wait to at least read and comment. You could even skim, but please leave some positive feedback on your votes for the winner's bracket. :D

So there will be at most 9 entries?
And I pretty much agree with what nikx said. I took time out of my day to vote for all three of the battles, and my schedule was packed with finishing projects for Titus (Finished my personality battle and CODEX weekly yesterday. So much win). I do it because I knew how much it took for me to make my entry so I know the winners bracket people have worked hard to make their's. So I respect that hardwork and vote.

View Profile I'm working on the three-way fight right now. It's going to take me awhile, but I plan to get it done hopefully before it closes. (probably just going to be short CnC's at this rate :U)

Gah it literally took me an hour to read the three entries. Totally worth it though.

Exactly why I'm flabbergasted as to why Tantalum thinks Loboto's entry is a feat that one week isn't enough.

Lobo's took me like twenty minutes tops to read.
Oh, and Birt told me to tell you whether you were a man, woman or hermaphrodite, he would propose to you. Basically he says thanks.
