[QUOTE="Tharivious_Meliamne, post: 2564825"] Free-form would likely move faster, dice-based would be less-prone to player stubbornness. I'm on the fence here. Free-form would be easier for me, but I'm open to popular opinion on this. I think a blend of the two using dicebots for the final outcomes and freeform for the actual combat may be the optimum route to take. If only I had the power to open up actual polls, I could solve the bracketting and format questions in shorter order. :P But since I don't, I direct posters to the bottom of this post. Right, well... *removes foot from mouth* not easy to tell that with the name there. :P Reverse the gender pronouns for the same result of the comment of wanting to fight a particular gender, and you get the same result should the split brackets be the popular choice. ;) Ok, that's one competitor and one vote for mixed-gender brackets. :) Now, I need more votes on the following two questions: [list][1]Gender Bracketing - One of the following Choices. [*]Split Gender: Male vs. Male and Female vs. Female [*]Mixed Gender: Every character in the same bracket set. [*]Both: Run three brackets; one male only, one female only, and one mixed. [2]Fight Format - One of the following Choices. [*]Free-form: Characters base actions on words alone, playing reasonably and remembering that there are no supermen in this setting type. [*]Dice-Reliant: We use Warden/some bot to determine success on attacks. [*]Mixed Blend: Fight outcomes are determined by dicebot, but individual outcomes are done free-form.[/list] [/QUOTE]
