Kariggi nodded in this direction over at act now thread;
So, here's one that I think would be cool what with Full Disclosure being done and all:
Thoughts? Other Marquee ideas? |

I like being able to include the Full Disclosure cards, but I'm not sure enough folks have seen them, are aware of them, etc. I guess the only folks who might embrace the formats we dispose would be here already, and we do want to drive traffic here, which this might, but I think for sake of not alienating anyone from there local hobby league we might want to stick with a more accesable format. 2p We just had BYOTG...right? People like a poll, give them a poll. Legend, Dual Legend, Clone, RP, BYOTTG, BYOSG, Alter-Ego, what else is there? Then we take the top three and announce them as the VSSYSTEM.ORG Marque events for the next three months -March/April/May. Ok another 2p |

I thought of this the other day. The event is meant to be completely broken and should be fun once people accept that. The event is also meant to see which cards, should in fact, be banned. (The idea is sort of a work in process and i'm posting in the hopes of someone else improving it or proving to me why its really just a waste of time). I would call it something along the lines of "'Cause Your Own Banning Marquee Event" It would be Golden Age where NO CARD is banned and we would see how truly powerful some of the cards really are and how other cards like; The Fate Artifacts, Ahmed, Quicksilver, Rigged Elections, and The Exiles as a Team compare to cards like Justice League of Arkham, Overload, and Dr. Light. It would be cool to run them on some kind of schedule and once we've had a few of them we'd see which cards need to get the boot and which ones (like Overload) might be actually be playable. I think the best way to run it would be to do it as an event at Mega Weekends (maybe the night before the event begins or at night on the day of the event) or possibly through one of the online programs and then once the results come in to analyze them and than ban certain cards the next time the event is run. For instance, if the first time we run it the top eight is composed of Dr. Light decks and Rigged Elections than we ban them both (Dr. Light and Rigged Elections) and re-run the event to see the next "tier" of problem cards. |

I had also thought similar to that Insanity:). I thought a good name for it would be Unlimited Golden. Every card is allowed and lets see who comes up with the craziest concoction of a deck. Only problem is getting people to accept it would be one hellish task. later, Kj P.S: I guarantee though that Dr. Light will be in every deck. Edited by KardKrazy, Feb 23 2009, 08:35 PM.

Nice to see someone else thinking along the same wavelengths. I agree with what you said about Dr. Light, that is why it would be more of a series of events (than a single event) and more than likely the second one would be Dr. Light-less. |

While I think that's a fun thing to try out ... I'm not sure we should stamp it with a "general community approval" sticker just yet. How 'bout you guys try it out then let us know? If it's not ridiculous/ lacking in the fun department, then maybe it's worth a shot. That said, I have my doubts. @ Kariggi - my hope is that this reaches all players who would otherwise be playing with MEQ cards. I mean, those were released for marquee events. Although there very well might be [probably is] a hole in my line of thinking. How about Super X-Over constructed? maybe disallow characters with various forms of loyalty? |

Boom Super X-over Sealed Baby - Help those shops dump old packs, heck make it choose your own packs...from what I got suckers, with maybe a no more than 2 of restriction (if possible product available). That Gold format could be the basis for Vs. No Tier Golden Play. I like a name like Golden Unbanned Golden Unbound Unbanned The Vs Search for No Tier #1 or Just Unbanned UG OG G Pure Gold -(Baby) No I can't do Solid Gold, you older fellas will likely understand. Just tossin' that out there. I also thought an all but origins format could be fun, but for the earliest I think we should just try to get folks back down to the shops and clubs for something easy they know, and then spring all this crazy sh.t on 'em. Errata would likely still have to stand to keep everyone on the same page, caue a'ah you know some of that is cracked. |

Oh and when I say no tier...we start all crazy like this, track the decks that win. and ban them from No-Tier Play, that way there are less and less decks in the format but still boat loads of options in a couple of months you could have no tier one or even tier two decks in play. Determining what constituted the "deck" might become an ugly debate, but if you combined the remaining leagues results the list would drop fast, and while Quickfate/QuickSin/and 12 Man are not the same deck it would only take three wins to remove all of them 'forever' , well from no tier play at least. |

GA Insanity and every card with the keyword Insanity is banned. Thoughts? Maybe allow non-insanity banned cards? since it'd be a singleton format and all.

I think we should leave the banned list banned for this first group of Marquee events. People don't like change, and doing things like that will put the backs up on those people who dislike the idea of a commitee and altering UDE's previous work. Let's do everything inside the box, before we start pushing the boundaries. |
