time critical? the only thing i remember other than stickied topics was mod stuff, like removing drama/threads which broke rules (no attack threads/images).Time critical would be like putting up the next round in a reasonable amount of time instead of a week later. Also, putting up to date Standings of characters in their respective brackets. Just announcing the new round before it starts instead of when it is half way done would also be good.
These were things that TMS understandably would have trouble doing manually and by himself. Unpantsu presumably wants to know things like this though so he can consider making them auto-functions.

If it was a month and a half - it took much longer specifically because it was only one person doing the event. A dedicated moderator would be able to assist TMS and what not, or if TMS had moderation powers he wouldn't have to act like a 6 year old asking his mom to turn on the oven for him. HE COULD BAKE THAT SHIT HIMSELF.don't get me wrong, I understand the reason to have one, I'm simply telling you Jake said no last time.
Yeah I know, I said that before you did.

There should be an anime channel in America. I don't know why there isn't, so many other channels about things like brides competing in reality shows to get free plastic surgery. You think they could make room for an anime channel or maybe show it on something like G4Tv. But first, need a channel over here that doesn't only show anime at 1 in the morning.
There's the anime network and the Funimation channel, but you have to purchase them separately/it's not avaliable everywhere.
Orly? I did not know that, I only get to watch tv americano when I stay at a relative's house.
BTW - House. I wish they showed that here... Show makes me want to buy a cane.

The fancy landing page is really just icing on the cake. The real timesaver is the automated system which takes care of the bruntwork for you guys.
Yeah that sounds like a lot of work eliminated as well as the problem of last year when people would complain or wonder if TMS was dead since there were no updates. With this automation, no one would care if he was dead.

Well, I can't fix the moderation bits (post deletions and rule enforcement), but I can definitely automate the sticky/unsticky process so that it automatically makes the daily battle threads, sticky/unstickys them, keeps track of the developing bracket and updates a central status post, generates bracket images, etc. I don't know what proportion of the overhead that would eliminate for you guys, but it would at least remove the "oh god need to stay up to put the thread up at the right time" factor.The fancy landing page is really just icing on the cake.

tms would inform me of changes he needed done, and report things that were unwanted. It was fairly short but almost daily as a lot of drama does seem to pop up during.There should be a GARfest moderator.
I remember TMS asked to be a moderator last time, it didn't happen though. Garfest should have its own moderator as I still believe it is an open house of sorts for Fakku. There are many post you can see in the subforum where users had less than 50 votes and often did things that required moderator (like post pictures of Yaoi images to make other characters look bad). If it was just Fakku experienced users only, I wouldn't think it needed anymore Moderation than what Global Mod or I suppose you, Waar, could handle. But since it has a lot of outsiders, extra "security" is needed.

right, and my comment/tms's comment were concerns about issues that may arise with said suggestion. That's how people talk about ideas, someone suggest one and another person explains issues they may see with it.My bad, it sounded more like you were saying not to discuss it because people were getting ahead of themselves. Don't be so sensitive...
It is just a suggestion, and a cool one too. Can't wait to put out suggestions until Jacob okays them.
Noticed how post are highlighted based on user's vote. It would be cool to see a thread filled with mixed colors like that. The chart is reminding me of pokemon...

Suggestion (again): 48 contestants. First round is 3 per match. It will last 16 days
48/3 = 16
16/2 = 8
8/2 = 4
4/2 = 2
2/2 = GAR
-----------
31+ days
If each round last about one and half days, the contest will be about 45 days.
Make a cut off date - if your character isn't in something people know about by then, they can't be in the contest.

My bad, I just got a little defensive there.I know. That's why I said you crazy. But it's all good in da neighborhood. I brought it up without any intention of taking it over but open to helping out.
Conversation to be continued... stay tuned.

Pointless to have a poll. People who know what it is will want it back as long as it is improved, people who don't know what it is don't really have a reason to answer the poll since they can't have something "back" if they've never had it before.No dawg, people that have never heard of it may want it, but if there isn't an overwhelming "yes" there is no fucking reason to spend 4 months doing something no one cares about.
You should do it either way, silent majority and all that. Also, people joined Fakku just because of GARfest and those people aren't going to be voting in this poll, are they?
Off-topic:
Don't make it last four months. That's a quarter of a year sir, way too long but see sig.
-Drama
-No, You Mad (I wasn't sad and whiny, I was pissed./quote)
-Don't be mad at me, I didn't think you could do it for some reason - thats why I brought it up. Plus, I SAID I knew you'd say something. I didn't post "I AM NEKO-CHAN AND I AM YOUR NEW GARFEST OVERLORD"
-You crazy son'
-Goodluck if you want to do it.

Then do it son, don't get all sad and whiny. I said I would do it because I would and I have the time too. And to suggest that I am just trying to steal the idea right out from under you nose it absurd as I post that I'm sure you'd stop by to say something - although I thought you wouldn't be so offended by someone bringing it up. Did I really have to PM you about something people have been asking about for a while? Especially when you seemed oh so not very eager to do GARfest for the majority of the year.
Perhaps when you heard "moderator powers" you became interested again?
Either way, don't be upset at me for bringing up something you wouldn't have brought up yourself. And no, you don't own the idea of GARfest. GARfest is the creation of Jim Davis where fans celebrate the antics of his newspaper comic character "Garfield".
TL;DR
-Don't cry
-Poll is stupid
-Your welcome
