Tourney 3 - Motion for selection of games

Post by Gameboy9 »

I move that we select games this way - tell me what you think.
<p>

A. Each person picks three games that they would like to see in the tournament. The voting will start on the 1st of January - provided everything stays intact... and end on the 15th of January.

<p>

B. After the deadline passes, I will randomize the games(instead of Pat) - however, I will do it in front of a witness who doesn't give a *beep* about video games.

<p>

C. Each game has equal weight, no matter how many votes a game gets. So if a game gets a second vote, too bad. It doesn't help it.(there defeats the gang voting)

<p>

C. After the randomizing is done, I will put the results in front of a three or five person committee. With this committee, we will knock out games that can be controversial(Track N' Field), non-playable(Us Vs. Them), or multi-typed(Breakers, KOF 96, Street Fighter 2, one would have to go)

<p>

D. The final results would be posted on the board with the appropriate settings. These results would be final unless a huge uproar occurs...

<p>

Let me know your thoughts on this - Thanks :)

Cool there's two C's in the alphabet now! :)
<p>

Great Ideas, i reccomend the randomizing be done such that when it's
performed each game has a weight from 1 to N, where N being the
number of games voted on. And if X is the number of games that will
be in the tournament, when the X games are eliminated by the
committe, there is no question which game will take it's place, since
each game will be bumped up in order that is not eliminated.

<p>

I also recommend the random order value be posted for all games, such
that we can tell which games were eliminated and why the non
eliminated games took their place.

<p>

So say N was 5 and X was 3. The random order values would perhaps be:

<p>

1. Pacman

<p>

2. Space Invaders

<p>

3. Pong

<p>

4. Wakuwaku 7

<p>

5. Splatter

<p>

And if the games that were selected in the tournament were Space
Invaders, Pong, and Wakuwaku 7, then we'd know Pacman was elimnated
and Wakuwaku 7 took it's place because it was next in line.

Sorry I'm late (been busy and such).<p>

Sounds better than randomizing 1000+ games then voting. So I'll vote
yes on the previously describe scheme (if I'm not to late).
