Titling Discussion

[Nancy Drew 39]

Can’t we just redo Entitlement again? That one got a lot of traction.

Can’t we just redo Entitlement again? That one got a lot of traction.

Every title event is designed to be run annually.

If an event needs refining/tweaking, here's the place to talk about it; given the fair feedback on Title Council, for instance, when I do the special rerun, it'll have modified rules.
(Initial thoughts: lowering the threshold to 8, including the initial nomination as one of the eight, which is what I originally had before I second guessed my way into a harsher standard;
Titles can't drop below zero;
Limit antinoms to 50% of suggested titles. So, if eight titles are nominated, you can only antinom half of them. Keep the antinom = -2, but make it so that people can only use antinoms sparingly and precisely.
Am open to feedback there.)

If an event proves to be unpopular, and/or can't be effectively reworked, we drop it--ideally replacing it with another event, but if need be, dropping the number of events down.

I feel like Title Council is, as an event, not doomed to the scrap bin. (I actually thought that of all four planned events, it'd be users' favorite, and I maintain that, if the event is properly executed, it'll be precisely that! I just fucked up on the execution.)

So, Entitlement WILL be rerun…in April of 2020.

If people get sick of title events, they can be run less often, but it was my judgment that once every three months wasn't too often. It gives plenty of time where there's no event, and normal titling applies, but spices things up and generates interest in a forum which, traditionally, has suffered from large periods of dead time.

Alternatively, have the title council thread elect an actual title council of say 5 people, or 4+Mastina. Anyone can nom it anti, but only the council members count. Simple majority for titles. Re-elect weekly while the event is running

Or something like that

I support something like this

this feels more true to the idea of a 'title council'

[Pine]

To be fair, I reread it and think more of title “committee,” and then throw up in my mouth a little

[Annadog40]

Have title counsel be where noms are instantly accepted, the user can still reject the title if they wish. Have titles follow site rules. That would be more fun then the anti-nom fest that was this one.

that’s actually what I was thinking the event would actually be
Like a month before take care of who is going to be in said council then run the event

Anti-noming everything was fun until I was getting specifically targeted

[RadiantCowbells]

It was fun to be a dick until people started retaliating? Sounds like life

[Alisae]

I was parodying and making fun of the people who just drop in the normal thread and said “anti-nom everything”

Also the event was just extremely abusable, I actually think me doing that will actually lead to a (hopefully) better event.

The forrestal fire and associated hundreds of deaths lead to the forming of the Damage Controlman rate and mandatory firefighting training for all navy personnel.

The loss of the thresher submarine and all crew, civilian government employees, contractors, and equipment onboard during routine sea trials due to condensation freezing a valve open led to the SUBSAFE programs.

The loss of multiple contractors and navy personnel onboard a nuclear aircraft carrier when they used the wrong material for a screw that then snapped when the primary-side steam system was lit up and filled with irradiated steam led to the quality assurance programs.



All these programs are good things.
None of those horrors are.


Being a dick to show a flaw in a system doesnt make you less of a dick. But thanks for making us realize the system was susceptible to dicks.

Just because I ate people's faces doesn't mean people should be allowed to eat MY face.

I thought it was funny.

Lol I'm on the border of millennial and gen Z.

[RadiantCowbells]

What about MilGenZal

That's what I call myself

[Maruchan]

Nah I totally identify with millenials but I'm literally the last year of the generation on most generational spectrums. 100% recognize the difference in culture 911 had on the world though and have memories of before.

[chennisden]

Yeah like... give people only 5 anti noms. Because fuck that shit

[vonflare]

give only 5 PEOPLE antinoms

title council it up bby
