[2k18] Quick Questions

[PepsiWhirda]

Will you be doing a pre-show ranking?

Right after the bracket is finalized I'll do IC power rankings on all contestants, individually. Then I'll update that probably every other round.

Will it take 1st round matchup into consideration?

[Handsome Jack]

I dunno if individual is more interesting. These are tag teams. Some will simply mesh better than others. For example (excuse my out of date wrestling knowledge): the Dudley Boys are stronger together than separately, whereas a Tag Team of Stone Cold and The Rock would be weaker together than they would be alone.

Agreed, but it's interesting to get a yearly "where do you stand against the field" too. Maybe we can get both?

[Handsome Jack]

Seems like it'd be extra work for Alex, but whatevs. Whatever he throws up will be fine.

Will we be able to get a post or 2 out with our partner before being thrown in the arena?

[Victor Wolfe]

If you want to have a secondary be in the obesrver area do they enter through the same area primes do ? So for example Erik is headed to sign up with Valarie (Vics kid) So she can watch the event.

there are 4 days between the brackets being finalised and the first round so should be able to get a post out.

Suggestion: if two people get ghosted on at relatively the same time, can they get paired up instead of being pushed into the losers's bracket?

[Handsome Jack]

No. Just be a man and suck it up, loser. :p

[Karl Jak]

I might consider that if, for some rage-inducing reason, we have many ghosts.

[Bandit With No Name]

No. Just be a man and suck it up, loser. :p

This was probably stated already, but I thought I seen some conflicting info, so just for clarification, what is the latest date you can make purchases?

[Karl Jak]

I answered this on Discord, but it's the same time that sign ups end.

June 6th, likely at 6 PM, Chicago-time. After that, brackets go live and purchases are le frozen.

[Jack Darby]

Can characters who are not participating in DA continue purchasing, though they are spectating the event?

[Karl Jak]

Yes

3. Add (if you don't have one) a section to your roster detailing your prime's Personality
4. Add (if you don't have one) a section to your roster detailing how your prime acts in combat. I don't want to use the generic term "Fight Style" section, because this should be more than just how they throw fists or shot guns or use wibbly-wobbly nonsense. Building off of the Personality section, how do they act in combat situations? Sneaky? Tactical? Avoidance-heavy?
(Both of these sections are to help other writers better understand your characters, because there will be flubs, they happen. Roll with the punches, though)

Where do I do this for an NPC?

Oh hmm, pre-registration OOC is over. Do I still need this?

[Karl Jak]

For an NPC, you can edit that into the approval post (I should have caught that).

NPC information'll be shared in the OP for any fight involving NPCs (ATM -- You and Wesker are the NPCs)

[Schwi Dola]

I just noticed this was for pre-registration which is closed and its not actually mentioned in registration.

[Karl Jak]

I'd still write it out or at least be aware you'll have to say a lot of the same stuff, round-by-round =p

[Schwi Dola]

Please denote your facility location in your post title.  Example: <Barracks> Preshow Facility

But where can you actually see the post title? I've tried but in a few different themes, including default, I can't seem to see the post titles.
