Probably. But people did get invested and wanted something with consistency

The thing with my wife is symptomatic of the larger issue of a lack of consistency
The 25+ post rule was a rule since last year as well.
And to be honest, I never expected to have to put in rules for spouses.
quote:
constant changes and lack of set rules
There wasn’t any rule change this tournament other than the one about changing your vote. I changed that because EVERYONE complained that they couldn’t change their vote. No matter what the rule is people complain,

This is the problem. For alters, there are some that have 10 posts, some with 1,000. There’s no set way to define an alter. It’s kind of a know it when you see it type thing.
Which is why I think we should have something like a council next year. 5 or 7 people or so to vote on shite like that. Problem is people will vote for what benefits them.
And for the record, before last year’s tournament, I made a thread like this one asking for suggestions. Everyone laughed at it because they didn’t think this thing would actually be successful and have participants. It’s really hard to keep everyone happy when I’m the person running it.
We will have to agree to disagree about your wife. I hope you can at least see where I’m coming from on that.

And you know where I’m coming from. Good luck with your tournament. But this one is a go afterwards. There’s just been too many issues that have turned off people to that one

Exactly. A lot of people copied and pasted other votes cause it matched what they wanted.

Should this be double elimination or single elimination? Could add more intrigue and CHAOS!
Double elimination. Have a pudding eating contest to determine who wins the De’Coldest Kool-Aid For A Year sweepstakes at the end of the tourney

My God dude, it's a fun message board thing and he actually did have the 50 post rule in
You're acting like a child - you and some others, grown men acting like children pissed off and taking it out on a grocery store kid
