Well, I guess there's no harm in attempting to get into this... Sign me up.

So everyone knows, yes. I have spoken with Arashi with my support of a second Challenge Takers Tournament. When it was initially tabled, I was actually fairly enthusiastic about it; I even helped him with it. I wouldn't mind another event to help this community get back on its feet...
But I've got a really bad feeling about this; had it since I started brainstorming with him. And the closer this comes to its completion, the worse it gets. Reading people's apprehension to the idea isn't helping my case, either. I don't know if it's something to do with leaving such an event in the hands of someone else, a lack of faith in the idea of bringing random YouTubers into this, or if it's fear of what another competition here will do.
Whatever the case may be... Sorry, Arashi, but I don't know if I can support this anymore. Not without giving it a complete overhaul.

There's not enough time for me to read the thread through and through, but I get the idea... furthermore, I will not be participating.
I've had too many bad experiences last CTT... especially getting on Armadox' bad side because I was being, well, stupid... and overconfident.
I may not be participating, but just a word of advice to those who will and have no prior experience of the CTT:
Make sure you're 100% satisfied with your video before you even save the file. Because once you save your file (the video you're gonna upload), you'll have wasted too much time and [might] not have enough time anymore to go back and redo everything.
Good luck!

Ok, so some people seems to not like the idea of having random youtuber in this CTT. How about we keep this tournament strictly for people here? Of course that will greatly reduce the number of potential contestants, but that would FURTHER reduce the risk of unwanted flamme war.

Seeing as I just read this thread, it actually sounds cool. I probably won't be in it though, due to random crap. Yet you need to find at least two people who are neutral to every participant. Which isn't as easy as it sounds... Hi there. |

Sorry to burst your bubble, but only Kayorei will decide who her partner judge will be. If the tournament starts anyways. |

Hmm I might enter up,though with limited games compared to other games people chose to take challenges(reasons may involve boredom, actual skill in each game, etc.) Again, I might sign up, depending on the circumstances.

Aren't you just precious?
Considering the horrendous outcome of the last tournament, this is bound to head for failure. Little to no people are that active enough to check the forums anymore (I'm doing this 'for the lulz', you see), and there's already bad morale about the event. The way this is headed, you'll just end up trying to invite the Challenge Takers who do not go to this forum, whether they be famous or terribly obscure.
[insert anything that people have said against the tournament]
Congratulations on finding alledgedly 'unbiased' judges before you even obtained a decent amount of participants. It is good to be prepared, but at least check how many people will be attending before you get too ahead of yourself.
If you prove me wrong, congratulations - want a cookie?

Well I-- *reads another post after a refresh*.. Makes sense. I'm not exactly on boat for it... Than again, without R-k-i; it should be easier for me to get into it. I couldn't care less about it. Sign me up if you need another person in the tornament, or if you need one; i'll be a judge. I don't know anything about the people participating anyway.

Harsh, but Fooz was right on that one. *still in shock here* With you pretty much banning almost everyone aside from CT's from participating (as either a spectator or a competitor), you've more or less already set up a time bomb waiting to go off the moment this shin-dig kicks off... Sorry if it's a bit harsh, I couldn't find better words to describe it. Maybe we need to think this through a bit more, ne?Especially after: Whatever the case may be... Sorry, Arashi, but I don't know if I can support this anymore. Not without giving it a complete overhaul. But if ever there were something that really needs to be changed compared to the previous CTT, it would have to be the rating system. Because the crowds are more or less brand-loyal, they might not even bother watching the videos anymore. Especially if Kay's no longer primarily involved and ends up as just a spokesperson or a (dare I say it) 'mascot'. |

Soo... err... is this thing cancelled or is it still in planning stages?
If you need more participants, I'd be happy to join in, however i'd only be participating in the BN3 challenges.
