The only thing i don't like about this game is that we have a lot of people who are not reading the rules. But you can't really fix that now can you. xD
Their loss.
I did warn them.

Me and saka complete the pair, right?
Btw, you've done a great job with this game, honestly. I liked the changes.
Yep.

.......................... It's a good change to ensure people read the rules (at least once), so we don't mind.

I dunno; I find the ambiguous round starting point you make is oddly hilarious and also makes it so people have to really pay attention if they want to be early posters in a round, but I can also see this being really annoying for people who aren't in a setting where they can stare at a page and refresh for a whole hour, so it goes both ways.
As nice as the sixth slot rule goes, I can't speak for everyone, but I don't really see how it can be utilized by someone who might be making unpopular claims like I feel I do and I'm sure many others can relate. If I try and branch out to other series' to get the extra slot I'd be making a claim I don't really care to have just to get a sixth slots; like I'm spending a slot to gain a slot. It seems to more favor popular series' greatly. The rule also allows a lot of claims to be made very early on so some series might run out of prime characters in the first few rounds if enough people liked a series.
That's just my impressions so far. Who knows what will happen later; I may very well be wrong on all fronts.

I remember hearing that Asa had a ton at one point but I don't remember if it was more than that or not.
Also, I absolutely adore your avi there, Aura.

Well, the hour start time is because I have no set schedule, so I myself am unsure of exactly when I can/will start the round off.
And the reason why I can't simply let people start on their own is twofold-
1. When Waar ran the game, the thread was locked- it was actually impossible to make a post before he did.
2. As gamehost, I feel it more appropriate for me to be around so I can smack a bitch give overzealous and discordant individuals a sharp rap on the knuckles when they do what is not allowed.
And- yes, from what we've seen- the sixth slot rule does greatly favour the popular and mainstream. That can either serve as a good or a bad thing, so I'm still on the fence with which direction I'd like to take it.
On the one hand- it can make the game much more competitive; because not only would you want to snag an A-list waifu, but grabbing one also nets you a greater chance of earning the bonus.
If we can draw more people to the game, I think that element can really make it fun.
But on the other hand- for those with more niche interests- there is virtually no chance of gaining that bonus, save for dedicated effort.
It's tough to come up with a sixth slot rule that doesn't clearly favour one party over the other- and I won't do a lotto, because I find random chance to be rather boring.

I like how this game is going. Granted, this is only my second Waifu Game with art's Game X as the only point for comparison. The new enforcement of the rules is a nice touch and makes for good television popcorn movie reading.
I think the check rule could be isolated to Discussion only, for the sake of uniformity (or vice versa @game thread), but then again, I doubt that'd help with having people read the rules. And as others mentioned, possibly having a re-check every round seems to be detrimental to those who already read the rules in full from Day 1.

I die a little inside everytime someone claims a waifu using the 6th slot rule, because getting one is a pipe dream for someone with waifus like mine.

For my first and second claims, I claim Phryne and Nessa, both from Fractale.Nice choices.
Not valid.
Read the rules and try again OR SUFFER THE WREATHING HELLFIRES OF ETERNAL DAMNATION or you won't get to play.

I don't really mind the 6th slot waifu, since after the 5th round it's not like I will even care who my waifu is. I just think there is some improvements that can be done regarding the rule check, not that it should be abolished.

I was wondering:
If people are already part of a set, can they still help someone else obtain a 6th spot?

[color=#006FFF]I didn't expect so many people to have the bonus waifu slot open already; good thing my claim was safe overnight since I didn't have the stamina to stay up to the last minute to make the claim then.
With that being said, the Kiryuin family is now mine because I am an impatient, selfish, bastard.

I'll allow a maximum of half the set. So if the set requires 4, one person may claim up to 2. If it's a set of 10, I'll allow a maximum of 5.
