BF4C5: Generals Discusion
Posted: Sat Dec 13, 2014 2:39 pm
All,
The survey results are in and we've had a lot of really good feedback. It's appreciated. We've also got a list of General applicants. As we've announced, this campaign we are allowing the community to chose the Generals.
How will it work?
Use this thread to discuss the individual applicants and their merits, and also take a look at potential pairings. Which of the applicants would be best suited fighting against each other? It's been raised in the Balance Thread that it is very important to have Generals who are going to be fighting on the same level. The Generals are listed at the bottom of this post, as people join and leave the running, it will be updated.
At Thursday SBT(ish) a poll will be put up in the Supporting Members Forum with a list of the possible potential combinations of Generals we can have. If you are an applicant and specifically do not want to fight against another, either say so in this thread or you can PM me and I'll remove that combo from the poll. If the community seems overwhelming against a certain combo in this thread, we'll also remove that prior to the vote. On Saturday SBTish the results will be confirmed and the selected grouping invited to General.
Why Supporting Members???
We have a few reasons for wanting the discussion public but moving the choice to supporting members. The reason for keeping the discussion public is that we want every member of this community to have a say and be kept in the loop. Moving the vote to the supporting members allows us to stop any potential "vote fuzzing" where people may make new accounts to vote for themselves, their friends, or against people they don't like. It also serves as a way for us to recognise the commitment to the community the supporting members have shown.
If you're not a supporting member and have strong feelings about the Generals, it's your responsibility to use this thread to get your opinion out there and try to convince others. It's actually the responsibility of everyone in the community to get their part said, and to follow this thread. If you don't get involved at all and later start complaining about how rubbish the Generals are, I'll be pointing you to this thread and telling that it's your fault, and as you didn't speak up you've got no right to complain.
The Applicants
The following are the people who have said they are willing to be a General next campaign in the survey. If you want to add your name to the running, post here and/or send me a PM and I'll add you to the list.
I have a question for anyone who does that though - why didn't you just say it in the survey??? How else are we meant to know you're willing? That's why it's there!
The List:
KingSamson
CrookedBarrel
LordGonzo
Th3One
I'm sure we'll have more people signing up now the discussion is actually ongoing.
Please keep this discussion civil and constructive.
