---------------------------------------------


Please register your interest to join a fun battle with vids etc in this thread and we'll add your name to the Battle List here. There is only enough room in the poll for just 12 contenders max, with 4 voting categories.

Please try out our new Poll system with the new categories.

When we start the battle officially High Noon. 15 Feb 2011, we'll reset the poll with all contenders names and zero all the counts. That will be the official start.

You have to have a Battle Character to enter - activate it in your Profile

omg i want in on this hahaha

when is this going to kick off fully?
im in i feel confident that i've gotten better enough to join a fun battle. ironmaan team up? lol

If you are new or unsure of your ability compared to others, here's a great chance to measure yourself.

Don't expect to win, but see how you rank, and then you'll have a benchmark, a point of reference for your own personal development.

It can also be a way to test run your own threshold level, see how you function under pressure, you might be surprised good and bad

yay! XD im so in then.

We'll kick off the battle in about 10-14 days, give everyone a chance to prepare, then 14 days to shoot your vid and post - we will post the keyword which you need to include as text somewhere in shot to prove it's a current vid.

Then 14 days after that as the final vote. I'll stream line it a bit in the first post to make all that easiers to read.

cool im ready for it now hahaha

If you're planning on doing a lot of battles, it might be worth getting hold of a marker whiteboard or some fridge magnet letters or something to do the keyword. Or just a letter/A4 size sheet of paper will do.

You are welcome to decorate the sign with your name, the number of battles you've entered etc like a serial number or something. We need some ribbons for you to print out to I guess

can you give a visual design of that please Garry

that's an idea. Yeah I'll make up a template for people to use.

cool thanks Garry

Is there not a way to make 4 separate polls for A, B, C, and D? Maybe that will make the voting a bit simplified... I don't know though.
However, awesome idea. I'm definitely interested.

yeah it's still messy, I have very little control over the poll layout, even just spaces between the contenders. But at least this way there's no doubt with votes, it's all one thread, and only admin access, so there's no room to fiddle, it's an all or nothing sort of system

cool i like that

QUESTION!!! Will the shufflers be separated into categories like beginner, intermediate, veteran, etc? Also, how will the tournament be played out (Round robin, elimination, etc.)

its a fun battle there really is no true winner its all for fun and advice.

That's 2 questions In your Battle Character your ability bar sets the level you regard yourself in. So be honest otherwise you could be judged like a pro-oldskooler at level 8/10 and not a noob 3 months in. So it's your personal rating. It'll be pretty clear if you've overstated or understated your ability on first veiw anyway. So if you are feeling confident sure give it a whirl.

The outright winner will be on the highest votes, there is the possibility for a tie so we can do demolition (elimination) rounds to find a winner.

All contenders in this Fun Battle win receive a private veiw coupon for an unseen clip from Global Shuffle the Movie.

The outright winner of this fun battle win will receive an extra deep underground clip - 15 mins long !

haha no probs. Nothing wrong with being a beginner, all shufflers were beginners at some time
