    Captain: As people have said, the system is rather flawed on this. Even then, I have no preferences for captains.

    yeah agreeing with luck and br

    i asked ifm about this a while ago and he agreed with me [js]. it should be just a captain picked and they pick the seven best players from each channel. this points thing is really stupid and i cba to participate in something so terrible lol

    Hm... Harlot proves a valid point. Captains should be picked from members and should the "best" in the team. :p

    I have some questions:

    Will the people who try out for obscure tiers have less of a chance of being one of the seven than if they tried out for say, Wifi UU?
    Are there set tiers for the rounds after qualifying?
    Do people battle a specific number of times for this "qualifying round" to keep the points fair?

    Thanks!

    Assigning captains for each channel then have them pick the 7 best players out of those who have signed up is the format that would make the most sense for this tournament and why it isn't implemented this way is rather stupid..

    - Supporting Harlot's format

    Voting for Harlot's format, sounds way better than the stupid point system but it still should works either way really. Also, I think 10 players per side is reasonable cuz 7 is just a derp number. ;-;

    As people said, The Captain should be assigned with picking up people for his team. Also increase the number of participants to 11 so that it'll be more fun. And in the end, TOHJO, the biggest channel isn't participating? bs.

    @Everyone: This is the same format used last year. This is not my tour, I'm merely hosting it. The same format won the best forum tour award in PO awards last time. What I've done is just add Trivia and Mafia and a Captain just to lead the side and sub in players if they go inactive. Bandwagonning just because everyone else is not appreciated. Atleast state a reason; Let's say a Captain is made to pick all the players in his team, He can pick whoever he wants without anyone questioning him and it makes it really hard for the new players to get in the team. It would also be extremely biased. The Captain atleast needs rules or Guidelines for picking his team.

    For now the format of the tour is not likely to be changed; Those who don't want to join or unjoin, have fun. But I will discuss it with the PO Tournament directors and it shall be their call.

    @Thatiswhatshesaid and Vintage books: Please specify a tier

    But what if someone doesn't feel like doing a certain amount of battles just to qualify? I find it stupid, honestly

    We could also do it like the POWC, everyone who sign ups, qualify, the captain chooses who will battle depending on their skills.

    ADV OU is the single greatest tier of all time.
    Fuck all others, Professor Oak for captain.

    Side note: Whether or not I'm made captain of Indigo, I want Gilad to make us a logo, if he can.

    No preference for captain since the person I was thinking of is on a different team.
