Let's Talk Rapid Thought!

That being said, a lot of people seem to have a negative view of this particular event style, and a lot of people who played in these tournaments were like "Huh. That was almost fun. Maybe if something got changed, I'd like it more...", which isn't an insignificant issue.

When I ran the event at Origins, there were a lot more people there playing VTES than in the RT tournament. Sure, it was late at night and a lot of people were off drinking beer at that point, but a lot of folks also were like "Yeah, that is a stupid format. I'm gonna go to bed/drink/play BSG instead.", which isn't an insignificant issue.

Maybe if a couple things were changed, more people would like playing.

But anyway, you're ever the populist, eh, bakija? Always worried about what "the people" think?

I wonder how people prioritize the various aspects of Rapid Thought:

Here are my priorities:

1. A game of VTES for 3 players
2. Fast game
3. Different Format
4. No one deck type (Una) totally dominates.
5. Ability to use my existing decks

How would people adjust those priorities? If we can get some sort of consensus on priorities, then perhaps we can then focus on rule-changes that lean towards the priorities.

Consensus, eh? You've been to the internet before, yes?

2) Ashur Tablets was the only card on the watch list that made an appearance. The deck wasn't using multiple MPAs to boost it and at least for that deck it didn't help at all.
