3rd horrible final in a row... But there is no way I'm gonna vote for Turkey Boy Liu... So go...

Mileena

Mileena

why the hell did u guys boot all the good people?

well anyway i guess i have to vote for LIU KANG out of spite for mileena

This final round will last until Mileena has half of the registered users vote for her, or until the 24-hour mark has been reached... we will not violate this rule simply because people think Kang is finished.

Furthermore, I'd like to discuss the rules of the grand championship in this thread before it actually begins. It was never decided if the minimum number of votes in a round was going to be raised to twenty instead of fifteen.

How many registered users are there in this game?

I say we leave it at 15, it seems to have been a good number in the past. It can occasionally get reached very quickly, moreso when the Grand Championship starts since there will be more people. But then again there are times when people have to wait hours just for the last couple of votes to get thrown in. I say we keep it at 15 for the first couple of rounds, and then change it to 20 if needed as the game progresses.

Fifteen does work great in normal games... but I miss at least two rounds when I log off, and really, with only 16 characters available to vote for... two rounds can mean a lot. The grand championship only happens once in seventeen games, so I don't see the harm in the rounds lasting a bit longer than normal in such a rare occurance.

I'm in for the next round.

Don't you think we need to mkae it tournament style like in MKT.
Here is an example

1 5
16 12

2 6
15 11

3 7
14 10

4 8
13 9
Edit: Didn't get the spaces, eh. Ok it's gonan be 1 vs. 16, 2 vs. 15, 3 vs. 14 and so on.
It could be set in brackets. Each winner will advanced forward. Each round could be like the final round of our current games.

I really like the idea of a bracket, but that kind of defeats the whole concept of the Boot and Immune game. If we turned it into a bracket, it would be no different than the other games out there. This is unique, the system of voting and such. I don't think the Grand Championship should be any different.


To Crow, you do have a good point there. The Grand Championships will happen very rarely, so it would be a shame to get some sleep (God forbid) and wake up to see that 3-4 rounds have passed and your favorite got ganged up on while you were gone. So lets do it the opposite way I proposed. Start off with 20 votes needed for each round, and if that doesn't work then switch it back to 15. Better to be safe than let the Grand Championship get out of hand and turn into who can vote the fastest.

dmitch that wouldnt work out.. if say kitana is pitted vs raiden.. i would NOT want to boot either.. sorry but thats not going to happen..

CROW'S idea should be implemented.. only because there r alot of players that have not played since there fav has won 1 game..they will be back for the finals...so rounds will be going by fast, but by adding 5 more votes needed each round will last longer...i also think 10 votes should be needed to boot/immune some 1.. these 16 r "special" it should not be as easy to boot/immune them..plus it will extend the length of the final round..making the FINAL round special..

I think a new round should start once 1 person has been booted, 16 competitors isn't enough to have more than one person booted every round.


this might end up with people missing votes though, how about a time limit on each round?

thats y the 10 boot/immune votes idea is good..

This is just an idea which I haven’t given a great deal of thought to, but how about each round lasts 24 hours and who ever has the most boots at the end of the round is out and the 2 highest immuned characters are immune for the following round. For everyone not immune their tally re-begins at (0,0) at the start of the next round. Then once there are only a hand full of characters left it drops down to only the highest immune receiver being immune. Then the final four is every character for themselves.

I’m sure there are a few problems with my idea but it’s just a suggestion and if you like it the floors can be ironed out.

Best suggestion I've heard so far.

I agree with the 24 hour thing, but have the normal boot and Immune rules...not the one with the most boots/immunes

maybe make it 10-15 to boot/immune out of the contest, but it carry's over just like the normal rounds

Ditto.

Yeah I like the idea of the 24 hour game, It could be a mixture of the normal and final rounds like he says the person with the most boots at the end of the 24 hour/ or until all registered users have voted, is the official bootee and the one with the highest amount of immunes is immuned. This should allow the game to last longer too because after this grand championship what's next? Re-start of the whole boot and immune tournament again?

After the grand championship is over, the winner sits out the next games completely, until sixteen more fighters have won. Then those sixteen join the defending champion in another grand championship. If you read tgrant's post on the first page, you can find a more detailed description of what will be taking place after this has been completed.

As for the 24-hour idea... it shows some promise. However, being that the round will last that long, I don't see the harm in booting the two characters who receive the most boot votes... as well as immuning the two characters who receive the greatest number of immune votes. So it should look something like this:

Round 1: 16 fighters remain

Round 2: 14 fighters remain

Round 3: 12 fighters remain

Round 4: 10 fighters remain

Round 5: 8 fighters remain

Round 6: 6 fighters remain

Round 7 would then consist of those four fighters remaining. The person with the most immune votes would be safe for round 8, and the person with the largest number of boot votes would be finished.

Round 8 would then consist of two characters facing off against each other, with the winner facing the person who was immuned in the previous round. Thus:

Round 9: A match between the two remaining characters, lasting 24 hours as well.

How about the 24 hour thing like moosie_fate mentioned but only without any characters getting immuned. Just a vote for the character which you want to boot and then after 24 hours everyone starts with zero votes again. Minus that character that got booted of course.

I feel this would make Boot and Immune too much like standard "favorite" games. This game should be about Booting and Immuning, in my opinion... as that's the essence of this entire contest.

Sounds good to me.

I like that idea alot Crow, that sounds like the perfect way to do it.

Im cool with that 24 idea. I think it is fair for everyone. And I like the idea of the 2 characters with the highest boots getting booted, and the two characters with the highest immune getting immuned. Of course, we would have to figure out what we would do incase of a tie.....
