Text GC Deadline & Format Discussion
 

What would be everyones preference on the following points:

Number of days to post
Number of days for voting
Start date
Seeded / Random Draw
Wild card placement


The template i was planning would be:

3 days to post
2 days for votes
Start Jan 4th
Seeded Draw
Wildcard cards face other wildcards in round 1

This would have the tourney closes on: Monday Feb 3rd.


Feedback please, all comments will be considered.

Looks good. How would the Wildcards have a tougher path though? Less time to post? Gotta go an extra round?

I think having wildcards face each other in round 1 is a tougher path. Since most of the wildcards are top tier

i think days to post and vote should be swapped. everything else looks good

3 days to post 3 days to vote imo

This ^^

Or at the very least. 3 to post & 2 to vote as originally stated .

Hopefully the voting contest this month will provide a solid number of votes for all battles.

3 days to vote? Tah! My finals battle was open 8 days for votes. Let’s try to get a record breaking 9 days of voting

Remember to longer the voting / posting days, the longer the tourney is open lol

Y'all tryna have a 8 week GC?

2 days to vote or 2 days to post are both just a little short. Especially the posting. 3 days to me is the proper time especially given it’s a GC. I get it’ll take a long time given how many participants but hey, it’s a GC. Gotta be able to do it proper it’s the biggest tournament of them all. 2 days to post is WAY too short. If you’re too busy 1 1 day you’re left with 1 day to write a GC quality 16? Nah.

2 day voting I could see workin with heavy heavy promotion and mods/FVC badgering people to vote. Finals should still be 3 days or so in that case though

i think 2 days to post is the best. i mean, writing a verse shouldn't take that long. i'd rather have 3 days to vote to make sure each battle gets as much input as possible. i'd reckon there be no cap on days to vote, and instead, battle couldn't move forward w/o 7-10 votes.
