Title: [The SL Open] Challenger Thread
Post by: Genesis on September 21, 2016, 05:42:52 AM
Welcome to the official challenger thread for The SL Open. (trademark pending)

Current Results on a Spread Sheet: https://goo.gl/x5xNws

This is how all the tail beasts, except for the four tails, will be distributed:

For 1 week everyone has a chance to challenge for the bijuu of their choice.

One character per bijuu MAX. No NPCs. No ALTs.


Now, if you're interested in participating, please do the following:

1. Please post your character and the bijuu you wish to challenge IN THIS THREAD. If you expressed what bijuu you wanted to challenge in another previous thread PLEASE DO IT AGAIN.

2. THEN, please fill out this form at this link: -----

(The form is optional, but it will make my life 10x easier so I don't have to scour every single post...which I will anyway.)

You have 1 week to put your name in the hat!


Registration has ENDED!

DISCLAIMER: In the very rare event that Hades and Eric log in and disagree with us (Me and Chinote), this might not be a thing. But I'm 99.9% sure they would agree to this. I put this here out of necessity.

We're legit now.

Well, hey now. Let's stop for a minute. Why are we letting an NPC challenge? They are, by definition not a player. If we're letting NPC challenge, what's to stop say, Athos, who challenged for every beast, to challenge for every beast again using NPCs. They aren't him, they're NPC's, thus not bound to one challenge per person. What's to stop me from challenging as a Suna ANBU NPC? I'm a Council member, which means I can't be a host, but that ANBU member isn't a Council member. He's an NPC. This should be limited to players only.

Oh, really? I mean, didn't we say we can have alts? How is that any different?

And Jay, I'm working a way for for the results to be seen on spreadsheets...it's not pretty, but it'll be a live feed of the results.

Well, the Oto Police Force are all fairly fleshed out NPCs all under the control of me in defense of the village. I just don't want to create extra accounts for each and every one of them, but they all have bios on the wiki page :) If this is an issue, I don't mind not participating. It would have been a novelty for me anyway because I just wanted to try out.
Title: Re: [The SL Open] Challenger Thread
Post by: Chinote on September 21, 2016, 07:07:58 AM
We did not discuss alts. My original plan always included that each person gets one challenge. What account they choose to use that challenge with doesn't matter.
An NPC is not a person. It should not be allowed a challenge. Any one could flood the pool with NPCs and end up with multiple Bijuu under their control. That is not in the spirit of a fair distribution, which is my main priority.

Trev. You are the only current host, and we did not discuss your participation. I see no reason to bar you, however, it does go against having a fair initial distribution, so I'd encourage you not to, but won't stop you.

Truth be told, I don't know. I don't want to jump the gun on this.
Title: Re: [The SL Open] Challenger Thread
Post by: KayentaMoenkopi on September 21, 2016, 07:09:15 AM
I do not know what criteria for who is eligible to challenge and who is not the council will follow, Trev.

however, the bijuu rules say that multi-hosting is permissible.

I personally have no problem with Becquerel using an npc to be his host, for being a character that cannot use chakra and is not a living being, he could never BE a host. So as far as the npc things goes, if one player uses one npc to be his host instead of his character, is this really bad? It would still be one player/one beast even though the rules say a character can have multiple beasts.

anyway, I realize that the council is using this event to diversify the bijuu given to their care and may not wish to see them bunched up under one player's control at the beginning of this redistribution. They are not truly bound by the multi-beast clause to let a player challenge for more than one beast for this event.

Post by: Trev on September 21, 2016, 07:12:43 AM
Well, you guys "Council", discuss on a thread or amongst yourself privately. If I can, just let me know at least a day before the deadline for a challenge. But if you guys can't come to a decision or decide no, that is cool to. I'm only challenging if 6/0 don't get any challenges, or if I see a really favorable 1v1 matchup.

But let me know on SL or here, or something.
Title: Re: [The SL Open] Challenger Thread
Post by: Becquerel on September 21, 2016, 07:14:30 AM
To be fair, Bec does already have a tailed beast in a sense. I unveiled it a little while ago lol But I know it's not the same.

And if the NPC thing is allowed, I was just going to try for the 1 tails with only one of the police force members. I just wanted to have a fun fight with the potential to give Otogakure a little bit more of a defensive boost if we win :)

Like I said, I don't mind if it's allowed or not. Either way, I'm just glad things are progressing towards a solution!  :D

It's been put to a vote in the Council thread. The challenge period is supposed to be a week after the Council's decision, so it should be decided at the same time, then Trev and Bec will have a week to act on whatever we decide.

It's such a rush, the temptation to throw down the Council mantle in order to take on the 5-tails is great, but not great enough.

I don't have too much information on what exactly triggered this, but I felt it necessary to post since, well, I am a Council member and all. I'm still alive and I agree with this, interesting way of re-distribution.

This. Pick one.

Also, the Council is seeking community input on the rules for the non-GM'd fights. Please feel free to look over our current suggestions in the Council thread.

damn. I was about to challenge all of the beasts with an army of Edo zombies too. Guess I'll wait for the plebs to get ahold of them then make my numerous challenges.

Nanashi for the 5 tails will be my singular challenge.

confused about the one beast per challenge thing. Did you all say trev could make a challenge if he wants? He is our only host at this time...
Title: Re: [The SL Open] Challenger Thread
Post by: Chinote on September 24, 2016, 01:28:20 AM
Kay:
Eric hasn't given a direct vote, but said "1 challenge per player," so I'm going to guess that's a vote to allow Trev to challenge, which just makes a 2-1 a 3-1. I believe Gen or I posted early in this thread that Trev was allowed to challenge. Unless Eric makes a more specific vote and forces a tie and further deliberation.

Goosh:
Maybe read through the threads first, since we explicitly said one challenge per person multiple times.

When haven't they been able to challenge? Trev has a bijuu and is one. :P

Just a debate on if you guys can host a bijuu or not.

Refer to the Edo Tensei rules regarding Bijuu. I don't believe you can host, but you can still have a Bijuu as a summon, thus eligible for one challenge.

Unless the other Council members want to vote on it.

Sorry didn't see that link there.

One more thing. May have been covered but didn't see it. Are the fights IC or OOC? Death match? Or how does that work? I'm not really the kind who like to kill over something like a beast.
Title: Re: [The SL Open] Challenger Thread
Post by: Chinote on September 24, 2016, 05:04:16 AM
We haven't really talked about it, but more people seem to be in favor of OOC, so I'm thinking that's how it'll be.

I'm sure I missed the comment somewhere, but how long does a character have to begin the challenge once called upon to the stage before the next individual begins their turn due to inactivity?

For multi-contestants, I like the notion of a free for all, in one big fight, rather than pairing off to eliminate the competition 1v1.

Sis, you know how much of a cluster that would be? >_>

Multipeople events already have a hard enough time being done due to time constraints. You'd have to boot whoever runs out on the time limit and then continue on from there, which could make some posts null and void if they're hitting something that ain't there anymore.

As cool as it might be to have something like that, I don't think this community could handle it @_@

Hey. Hosts are the elite of SL, right?

Man up and bite the bullet already. We used to melee the hell out of SL and it went just fine.

And the scrubs can just be eliminated and head stomped to the curb.

Personally speaking, I wanna see an all out brawl for the two tails. But for the nine tails, I wanna see a tournament style bracket for it.

Multiple fights don't work. Also that would directly interfere with trying to do this quickly. This one multi fight would take weeks even if done by the rules.

I hate to be needlessly despondent, but when regarding the Bijuu, nothing tends to move quickly. If all participants agree to a Big Brawl, I do not see any reason, nor do I see any residing power that has the authority to tell them they cannot. Strictly speaking about the battle itself, it would provide large benefits to those who understand the rules of engagement, and would penalize those who don't. Would also give those who believe they are less equipped an easier way to take down an opponent who has been worn down from slaying another participant. :D Since nobody currently has a bijuu sealed within them, no way to claim enough chakra to fight 2 or 3 'equal' opponents without tiring.
Title: Re: [The SL Open] Challenger Thread
Post by: Trev on September 24, 2016, 09:37:41 PM
I don't think a giant brawl would be good, as I prefer 1v1 style bracket (Although brackets are problematic if you don't have easy numbers to deal with; 2,4,8,16, etc)

But if everyone in said match agrees, I say they should be allowed to, but all must agree. I'd hate to be the judge for that match though. So many complaints, and god forbid it reach the post limit. It's hard enough for a judge to decide the winner between two people, nevermind more. It also could create an unfair fight, if participants in said brawl decide to team up before facing each other at the end. Someone could potentially be walking into a 3 v 1 right off the bat.

Edit addition. Also for a group fight, other things have to be considered, like the time limit of the fight. If the fights only last 2-3 weeks, and seven days are allowed between post. Well, you may only get like up to 5 posts total before the limit is hit >.>

But that's just me being a pessimistic. If the combatants want it, I say go for it.

Maybe some rules should be set for multi-fights for biju brawls if they become a thing. I mean we've been seeing 2v2's so it's not too far of a stretch. Stricter time constraints calls out to me. And truth be told, multi fights may wind up being quick. After all, that's quite a bit of detail to remember, as well as a lot of possible opposition/god killing moves to work against with just the three move limit. But hell, like you said, a possible 3v1 could happen, or a 2v1. That seems like it could be a lil' scurrrry. BACK YOU FIENDS!  :smt068

My preference is a 1v1, but i'm down if everyone else is...Just a little off topic.

So something just occurred in the nine tails bracket. There are five people now. In the case the free for all doesn't occur or a sixth doesn't apply, how do we determine who gets a bye?

That's an open question to all of you.

One of the many problems. Use a randomizer to give someone a bye, or make one match a triple threat. It's not gonna be fair unless its break to an easy number 2,4,8,16, etc

If you're fighting on the forum, feel free to make your own thread after the countdown expires.
Otherwise, refer to the Official Fight Tracker thread for other fight methods.

If you don't start by next Friday, you forfeit. So if your opponent doesn't make an effort, you better, or you're both out.
