Brawl #2 Suggestions and Feedback

Please post suggestions and feedback regarding Brawl #2 in this thread.

I believe "Wagers" need more info in order to be understood by the majority. Furthermore, what are the criteria a wager will be accepted or not?

Also, I think "Challenges" shouldn't be limited to 1 Vs 1. I mean, why don't we include more complex possibilities (eg. the Deckbuilder & Card Designer of Team Aether challenges the Deckbuilder & Card Designer of Team Air in a 2 Vs 2 challenge where both must co-operate to make a CI&A deck) and focus in the co-operativer aspect of Forum Brawl even more?
Thanks for all your hard work.

Wagers and Challenges are tools the teams have to win points while shooting the leading teams down. The wagered/challenged player can go in a safe path rejecting the offer, but they lose some points and the chance to have a major advantage.
The proposed challenge will be accepted as long it is original/fun/hard enough.

That's a nice idea! I would like to see how it goes with the current ones and then will see if something like this can be included in Brawl #3. Looking for more feedback about this though.

Interesting Idea ARTH. We'll leave it as is for now, but perhaps come Brawl #3 if things went well with Brawl #2's challenges and others express a desire for multi-challenges.

If you have questions pertaining to the rules, please ask in the rule thread so that others can see it and it can be answered there. This thread should be primarily for suggestions and feedback.

Brawl should absolutely allow the renaming of teams. In fact, I think coming up with a team logo and backstory should be in Round1!

All this 'represent an element' nonsense is detrimental to the quality of the community and its events. The only events that should use elements are the ones that rely heavily on color bias in PVP (such as War). Other than that, all it does is divide the community, or even favor votes due to it being "omg entrpoxnx my favorite elementzorz". Heck, in this particular instance, it shows just how little activity we actually have - 12 teams is way more than we're going to see fielded in this Brawl. It's ridiculous and pointless to limit user creativity this way.

We may change the rule and allow changing of names (I think it's a good idea), however we do need to have a "base element" that the team originally was in connection with guilds, at the guildmasters' request. I'll talk it over with Chapuz tomorrow.

Needs a war-esque bidding gdocs iframe thingy!

It would be cool, but we need an admin to do it. I guess we will have to stay with the pretty tables.

assigning teams based on elements at first is a good idea imo. It helps reducing the organising chaos and helps ppl to distinguish between the different teams- everybody is familiar with the 12 elements.
After that, since this event is not related to the elements, renaming and redesigning the teams should be encouraged.

What do you mean by redesigning? The teams will be able to change their names

[ARTHANASIOS]

If we have each team redesigning its name but keeping an elemental icon at the beginning and ending of its new name (eg.  Nyan Sharks ) there will be no confusion imo.

redesigning, as in changing the "feel" of the teams... moving away from the concept of "one element, one team".. or is this an integral concept?
