Say average player you can reasonably expect has a competency of 35.

Do you balance for the 50 or the 35?

2 out of 100.

I am off the scale with a -2, everyone needs to get down to my level.
Then all games will be balanced.

Hey ETL, am I still on your blacklist?

Any of the ones here (Mr. Flay collaborated and reviewed each of these with me)

Can I run these games here?

Yes. To summarize the rules regarding open setups and reviews, anything that is allowed in the Open Game Queue (not necessarily limited to setups in rotation) will also be allowed in the Blitz Game Queue, since it's assumed that those setups have already been vetted.

Excite. I think it will be a nice balance between marathon and mini. And without the monthlong commitment.

Almost50 pisskop: Overall, that's a townie slot. Don't ask for specifics because with PK everything can be interpreted either way. It's probably WHEN he says/does things that matter, so it's more of a matter of conception rather than solid reasoning.

is there a more streamlined replacement requests thread for this, or can the queue thread be used for replacements like the newbie queue thread? it doesn't seem like the usual repl.reqs thread would be the best way considering how necessary quick replacements are.

I won't begrudge anyone who wants to use the Blitz Queue for replacements, since we might as well test either method out.

I was thinking it might be good for mods when their games fill to send a PM to the next mod in line to let them know they're up.
Amid the pressure of great events, a general principle gives no help.

I'm testing this out now. It does seem to be the best way imo. At the very least, we need a separate replacement thread for Blitz, since lumping them in with the normal replacements is not a good idea if we want the quick replacements that seem necessary to make Blitz work.

Might even be a good idea for mods to ask for one or two /in's beyond the amount of players in their game so that they have 1-2 replacements at the ready. This is standard on one other site I played at a long long time ago.
