bc you bet yamamoto would be all over that
so i hit up the mods about it today and they cleared it; it'll prrrrobably go up around like beginning of august?
sits here
since i know a couple of people are going on trips/hiatusing! but i just wanted to double check!
if u guys are like... down for this in general/comments/concerns/questions
I'M STILL DOWN and let me know if you need help setting anything up, hon!
for prizes, i suggested like an x amount of vivid points/credits, items from home, or a meeting w/ an important npc
and the mods are down for npc interaction sO WINNERS CAN MEET WITH THE NEW NPCS if they win
which i think is hella rad esp. since we'll have like, new people in charge
evergrace ok!! TY YOU'VE BEEN A GREAT HELP ALREADY
LMFAO SWEETHEART I HAVEN'T DONE ANYTHING but those are definitely neat prizes!!

THEY SOUND AWESOME YOU HAVE DONE GOOD WORK
those are definitely awesome incentives so we can get even characters who normally wouldn't want to play but their players want them in
jesus this baseball match gonna be huge
LMFAO YEAH I'M THINKING IT'LL LOOK A LOT MORE LIKE TOURNAMENT NOW
...... waves hands vaguely, do you want me to write up my suggestions to you again? i think it's buried in my old plurk.....
NO DON'T BE NERVOUS YOU'LL DO GREAT
i'll help if you if you want me to but i think it's in good hands with you, darling
there probably needs a powers section too
cos like some people are super strong or fast or something
you'd want them to balance out
YOU MAY NEED A POWER BALANCER LMFAO
hopefully enough people will be like "RANDOM" that you can split them up.
from 1 - 10, judge your strength, speed, etc
rwby players or the fate players or etc etc
vietnam's swing
LMFAO WELL I THINK IT'D BE FUN TO MAKE THINGS A LITTLE INSANE but as long as it's not like. one domination.
yeah exactly, randomised will help
MEDICAL TENTS LAUGHS yeah natalia would insist
that teams cannot have too many people who are overpowered, etc
WELL not entirely randomized since i think some characters should be free to be on teams or opposing teams with who they want but also like hopefully enough people will pick "IDK JUST THROW ME ON A TEAM"
like can you imagine masamune walking up with six bats
IN GAKUEN BASARA, MASAMUNE IS LITERALLY BASEBALL TEAM CAPTAIN BECAUSE HE CAN SOMEHOW HOLD SIX BATS LMFAO
yeah, you have to ask them to rank their powers, and then list it down, so that they can't be overpowered LOL
that way they can choose members
i'm sad that if he brought his two swords with him
they would be an overpowered team LOL
LMFAO WELL I MEAN we have a lot of overpowered characters in cereal. really crazy matches would honestly be hilarious if you ask me
i'm sure it'll work out! it's nothing to fuss too much about
yeah, besides it's randomised
so it would be hilarious to see
LMFAO YEAH I MEAN. CAN YOU IMAGINE A BUNCH OF NORMALS WINNING AGAINST THE RWBY CAST I'D LOSE MY SHIT PERSONALLY
holly heights had had this happen..........
vietnam was in this super powerful team, but the rng rolled them to lose every match
so honestly just have fun!

i don't think power caps are too big of a deal. it's just baseball.
an old vatheon tournament had Masamune lose to Rainbow Dash in the finals and I was literally so happy
THERE WERE LIKE 3 MATCHES. EVERY MATCH.
yeah, ask them the various scenarios
btw the super powerful team was also randomised too, it was a coincidence
cos hh did this thing where it listed stars on the taken list temporarily
whatever coloured star you have is your team
BUT YEAH this would be hilarious
YEAH it helped a lot cos it was easier
if anything, maybe you can make an ooc survey
to see how you want people to organise their teams
it's a player-made event anyway
so you can easily ask for input

i think having sign-ups with specifications like "with character a" or "against character b" + a "DON'T CARE, RANDOMIZE ME" option should be fine? the simpler, the better imo.
or you can have a 'roster' at the top of the post and certain characters can volunteer as captains if you want and you'll edit as the sign-ups continue
if we end up with extra teams with lesser numbers, just contact those players privately like "so hey can i put you in a combined team" as like. worst case scenario.
it depends, cos yeah some people end up wanting to be in whole teams
idk how many captain-types we have LMFAO
the way you suggested is pretty much a randomisation with requests KLSJAJKLA
LMFAO WELL I MEAN. THEY BUILD THE TEAM ENTIRELY ON PLURK IF THEY WANT and one person can go on the post saying "YEAH MY TEAM IS, A, B, C, D...." you know? o: but some people are like
"YEAH I WANT NEW CR, IT'S COOL, JUST TOSS ME ON A TEAM"
if going by randomisation with requests, i think squee's model for D&D was good
otherwise what happens is
hang on let me get it LOL
like this? o: yeah, that's pretty much what i had in mind
OF COURSE IT'S AME'S EVENT SO LMFAO whatever she wants goes
yeah that's a randomisation!
the one we have in hh for signups is like this:
that one is organised on plurk or other places obvs
there's other ways for randomisation and sign ups together but theyr'e deeeeeep in the comm
that i don't remember dates JKLASLAJKS
tilts head. right.... but i think listing preferences and if characters want to build entire teams that's fine? but not everyone wants to do that and might want to get randomized so i think having something-
that allows for both would be best since cerealia's such a big game
and since it'd be the beginning of august, it'd be right after an app round too and be good for getting new cr
unless i'm getting my months mixed up which is aLSO TOTALLY POSSIBLE stares at the clock
yeah the rpg event had that, that's the one i would suggest but it's like
dredged IN THE PAST i wonder when it was
it was definitely back when hh was super big too so it was pretty easy
also this would be simpler than the rpg event
cos there's no need for positions
people can wing that on their own
while the rpg one had classes, dear lord
also app rounds will be in september!
july is the next app round
remember when hh had ooc discussion posts?
where they put a top level and people discuss things, volunteer to be captain etc
team orange you glad you're not a loser
team roman empire when rome was captain LOL
if app rounds stay on their current timeline, intro logs go up around the 3rd week of the app month?
so I think september is fine since the intro log will go up july 20-something and then will have time to die down and then you can have it early august
yeah is this gonna be an intro log or just an event log???
i. yes. the mixing up months is tarting to happen
cos event log, make it auguest
esp since july i think has two events?
if it's a player event it's probably an event log? i think intros are being handled by the mods from now on again, when i did it it was just a weird anomaly LMFAO
esp since this has team organisations, i think it might be too hard for intro KLJASKLJAS
july's calendar isn't up yet

SO THAT ONE'S HARD TO CALL
you can ask the mods how busy june will be but with the intro log i think you can put up an ooc discussion post so that's approx. 2 weeks in advance of the game
and then yama's ic post whenever is comfortable for you around that time
LMFAO HAHA YEAH i mean you can ask how full the calendar is looking and when the best time would be, that's not an issue
yeah, maybe cos it's such a big event in a way there's incentives, you can ask them to reserve you some time in august
put it in the calendar even
it happened in ryslig a couple of times!

definitely worth asking! it happened in haven too.
yeah 8> it helps them organise their events too

i want in on this... reserving some time on the calendar sounds good
maybe it can even be another event LMFAO compulsory ball game
people keep getting hit by foul balls
yay

my excuse to put yata and taiwan in baseball caps
IT'S GONNA BE SUPER CUTE

i'm so excited

i can't wait
