How do you determine that, when their posts are in one order on the page, but when you refresh the page, they're in a different order?Post numbers.
Technically, there are no more post numbers (hidden by the date/time stamp). And technically, there are post numbers (hidden by the date/time stamp). However, I don't think it'd be feasible to have to record each post number to determine who posted first or not. And to be completely honest, I don't even find that relying on them is trustworthy given the situation I posted about above. Either way, the posts won't "settle down" until roughly a couple days after the posts are made, if even then.
And then there are those that delete their posts and throw the whole system off balance.
By and by, there is no perfect way to determine this stuff when there are human variables thrown into the equations, despite the fact that there are people who think they can even predict what is supposedly "free will".

Kinda What I meant... i derped with next round. meant next gameWell then, I can't speak on behalf of TMS, but this is my best guess.
We'd be limited to 3 because that's what the person who's running the game decided, obviously. 3 limits the number of waifus floating around. It offers more breath-ability when people choose their waifus, meaning that there's a greater chance that your waifus won't be claimed by someone else. However, this is also more restrictive, as you must narrow down your "standards for a waifu".
To make it more competitive and exciting, albeit it could be debatable, there is only one round. This means that the first one to post could nab three of the most popular waifus. In my own honest opinion, this will create mass havoc during the very beginning of the round as there is a flaw in "being the first to claim" after the host AND in the fact that there will be many multitudes of people re-posting because someone got to their picks first. The latter will be very hard, and very difficult to track. That is, unless, you have someone who is able to be very thorough and very attentive to detail, as someone running the list of who has been claimed and by whom.
The former will be the biggest debacle in having only one round. Since there is no "perfect" server, or website... there will be problems when people post at the EXACT same time. It notoriously happened a lot when Waar was host of the Waifu Game, during the very first round. To make it clearer to what I mean, take this as an example, and for all intents and purposes is made up:
Since TMS is the host, he gets the very first claim.
TMS claims Noire from Fire Emblem: Awakening, Cherche from Fire Emblem: Awakening, and Olivia from Fire Emblem: Awakening.
------------------------------
Sneakyone claims Konata Izumi from Lucky Star, Haruhi Suzumiya from the Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya, and Tsumiki Miniwa from Acchi Kocchi.
------------------------------
Revelation claims Haruhi Suzumiya from the Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya, Nana Asta Deviluke from To Love Ru, and Eve (aka Golden Darkness) from To Love Ru.
------------------------------
SneeakyAsian claims Konata Izumi from Lucky Star, Eve (aka Golden Darkness) from To Love Ru, and Chocolat from Ore no NÅnai Sentakushi ga, Gakuen Rabu Kome o Zenryoku de Jama Shiteiru.
Sneakyone, Revelation, and SneeakyAsian all made their posts at the exact same time, down to the last millisecond. For one person, it could look like Sneakyone posted before SneeakyAsian who posted before Revelation. For another person, it could look like Revelation posed before SneeakyAsian who posted before Sneakyone. And so on and so forth for all possibilities. Now it comes down, how do you decide who posted first? How do you determine that, when their posts are in one order on the page, but when you refresh the page, they're in a different order? This is the dilema for only one round where you claim all your waifus at once.
I can spout problems with the rules as they stand right now, but it won't mean squat if TMS does what he wants despite how hard it'd be to the host and lister (who makes the "claimed" list) to determine precedence.
Out of the long and short of it... Just suck it up like the rest of us do, and prepare for the biggest battle of your life in the Waifu Game.

Also.... WHY ARE WE NOW LIMITED TO 3 THIS ROUND? i already had my top 5 picked out with back ups in case they got take :(Um... read the name of the thread? This is the changes TMS is planning on making to the next Waifu game, not the one that Pump is still "currently" running.
I know this, but i was talking about next round. I always like getting my first picks, so i wait, and refresh.
There is no next round. The current game's 5th round will last until TMS starts the next game. And from what he had implied is that the 12th game will only have one round.

Are you sure that "the dark side always has cookies"? I've never seen them.Regardless, I claim the planeswalker and elder dragon Nicol Bolas from the card game Magic: the Gathering. We share the same affinity for our colors of mana.
You took one of the best, but another one of the best is this:
I claim the Thran and planeswalker Yawgmoth the Ineffable, Lord of the Wastes, and the original Father of Machines from Magic: the Gathering. Phyrexia needs some lovin' as well.
“the dark side always has cookies”. But this one, has the best. :3

You shouldn't let that Nerd Fox bother you. If you still cannot get over her, then you better play Eiyuu*Senki Gold in my stead.Pfft. You only say that because you've not tried to fight against the Extra bosses.

i think Waar would be ok with it.Here is where you'd be wrong. Waar did state when he was searching for the new Host, that he wouldn't allow someone to Host the game if they were going to implement a NTR rule.
Anything else, I'm sure Waar would be okay with, because he didn't say anything against.

Still waiting for the real host to be announced.and everyone talking about ntr....waar already said he wasn't going to pick anyone who pans to implement ntr.
I'm pretty sure that TMS will be the new host. And if he did implement a NTR rule, I'm sure he'll lose his seat ruling over the Waifu game faster than you can say "butternut squash".

Hold on, how is the pacing going to work for the rounds then?Rounds?
One girl every week or two weeks. I doubt you're planning a grab'em all first round thing.
Apparently, by what TMS is inferring, is that it will be a grab'em all. Makes it more challenging, and exciting, as it severely hampers lateness.
But yeah, I prefer the one per round thing, since it's been a part of the game since it's creation/inception.

I'm not sure if it was a cliffhanger or not
Spoiler:
There's still one more episode, so we won't know until then. It just feels like it will be though.
I have to argue that Pepel wasn't the 2nd best. The second best was KuruMi. If you don't accept that, then I'd agree that Pepel was the 2nd best.

ZvezdaThe ending. How have you seen it?
The Ending will be a time of great sadness and even greater loss. But, with the Ending, a new Beginning will start. How we interpret the new Beginning, will define the next Ending.
...Oh, in terms of Sekai Seifuku: Bouryaku no Zvezda? Hmm... I guess it'll end on a cliffhanger. It's either that, or it'll end the same way as how it began.

Tms will run the next waifu game, this is not a joke/April Fool's.The prodigal son returns; I gladly accept and look forward to the upcoming festivities. Hope you're all ready for some fun.
Depends on your definition of fun, I guess. It could either be a blessing, or a bane.

You say it's spring time now? You should recheck again with Lily.Cut some slack for poor lil' imposter Zafi; his country doesn't have spring hahahahahahahahahahahaa[size=5]me too[/h]hahaha.
Anybody interested to play PCB to celebrate spring? Since 2 years ago, I kinda developed the habit to do so myself. But now with my gamepad totally BBQ'd, which leaves only my cheap keyboard to boot, it's totally beyond my capabilities for this year.
Pfft, that would be an understatement. My spring came on so fast, I had a 10 foot high snow bank (more like a hill) melt in roughly 3 days of sunshine and 60 degree Fahrenheit weather... and this was coming from a fresh snow fall the day before the sunshine and 60 degree days.
I'd run PCB, but Ran is occupying any of my attention I try to give the game.

Lily White woke up in the wrong month and promptly caught a flu from winter. Personally, I blame that fat cow Letty.Her voice is all frosty like right now, so Lily Black will be taking her place.
It's Spring - now go home, you've been notified.
Don't expect a black fairy to get all colorful for you.

You say it's spring time now? You should recheck again with Lily. It's only springtime south of the 36 degree N latitude. I'm at the 43 degree N latitude, and it just snowed yesterday and is another cold day of roughly 27 degrees Fahrenheit out. I'd say you'd have to wait a bit more before announcing it's springtime (despite what the calender says). lol
Edit: It's been two days since the I posted this, and in those two days, spring has been slowly creeping in, though it still feels cold enough to be winter still. And two days since someone has posted and broke my boredom. lol

I also wish to change my avi soon, Jenkins, so I hope you guess it right soon... otherwise my avi would give it away, and that would be no fun at all.

Nah. If he has it his way, it'll be somewhere along the lines of 2150. After we're all dead.
Flan didn't make you immortal? How sad.
Same could be said with Remi. How sad.
