War #7 - Suggestions and Feedback

[Zso_Zso]

I understand the aversion of voting for propaganda -- I've seen how it was abused in the past. On the other hand, I also see the point, that some teams put a lot more effort to produce something nice, entertaining and fun and it feels fair that they shoul dbe rewarded more than those who choose the easy way to create a post with minimal effort.

I would suggest a system, where propaganda can earn upto X cards -- decided and awarded by the WMs, not by public voting. So if it was decided that propaganda can earn upto 10 cards, then when the deadline for propaganda is reached, the WMs would discuss and award some cards to each team, e.g. 0 card for not submitting anything, a few cards for easy-out humorous posts and 8-10 cards for involved, interesting submissions. It wouldn't need to be a full ordering, multiple teems could get 10 cards if they submitted very nice work.

Just because i'm curious : i haven't seen any arguments against removing propaganda yet. :3

Why when you can just do this and get cards?

I actually enjoyed reading propaganda. I think it would be a loss if we would lose it, even if I can see it disadvantages.

Make a propaganda board, don't mention it in rules. Teams will post there themselves if they feel like it, and if nobody posts there, then I guess nobody wants propaganda

Not going to comment on present situation of only Entropy being penalized since I can't be a neutral third party in this case. If it's to be discussed, it's to be discussed by the other 11 teams and WMs. Only wanted to point out that propaganda could be removed without removing it

Well that wouldn't make you to a good master would it? I mean in trials people had all kinds of questions about how you gonna represent your respective element. And to do that only for the cards wouldn't make you to a good master.

Don't feel bad, all masters are equally terrible.

There was one war where propaganda was removed IIRC.

The result was that players promoted their element and trashed others in the war main topic.

So WMs reopened propagana treads and I think everybody was happy with that. Players still posted pics, songs, epic speeches and whatnot in the propaganda topics, but there were no rules regarding propaganda. I think everybody was all right with that.

There should be a rule, if a team had two Generals as opponents in Round 1, the max. amount of Generals as opponents for next Round should be ONE.

[andretimpa]

It is very unlikely that each team faces exactly one general by pure RNG, hence it is very likely for some teams to have to face 2 generals (or more depending on how many matches there are) and for some teams to face no generals. just got the short end of the RNG-stick this round (just like and ), no need for a new rule.

[serprex]

Odii raises the question: how much do we want RNG outside of the matchs played? Bo5 format implies RNG within the matchs themselves is even desirable to minimize
