COGS Season Three, REBIRTH

<< < (3/14) > >>

Skrimskraw:
so qwerty has left again?

this is getting really confusing.
No offense leto Im sure you'd do a really good job.
But a lot of the rules imposed in cogs seemed to be forced by qwerty when he created season 3.
Wouldnt it make more sens to make it as simple as can be?
I remember season 1 when the casters and organizers didnt even know who were playing who week after week.

also does it start 25 january or 18th january (seeding)? really confused here.

It might be simpler and less controversial to try to let Leto roll with what Qwerty designed.  I imagine Letonator would rather keep rolling with what we have and start streaming some awesome battles than go back to the drawing board.

In any case it sounds like there must be a bunch of people under the pump at the moment to get this rolling.  I assume you are working closely with Muse to get this going, if you aren't I suggest you get them involved.  I wish Qwerty, Rob, Dan, Muse and everyone else that has been involved in season 3 organisation the best of luck over the next few months.

Byron Cavendish:
I love leto, and I think he's a great caster, and I think he would do really well at this. But I want to know who made this decision, and what lead to it. Not that I have anything against it, but this sprang up rather suddenly, with out any discussion about how to move forward.

Squidslinger Gilder:
Well BFS bringing the Blue and Black either way. But if something else gets hiccuped we'll have Aerodrome ready to go soon too.

Let me clarify, we had a meeting last night with a few clans discussing how we'd want to proceed if qwerty ran away again. Urz said he'd rather make a new event than try and run Cogs without qwerty (being the projected producer for season 3). That being said, seeing as how this is qwerty's thing with the community's support, I don't think me, or you, or anyone has the right to decide or dictate who gets to "inherit" cogs, whether it's urz or leto, or anyone else, as no one but qwerty really owns it.

So I think if we are going to proceed down this path, then as a community we need to have complete transparency and openness in the decision making, and agreement of how to proceed and move forward with the event. Just springing this up without talking about it, but making it a definite statement seems a bit brash and presumptuous, as if certain select few individuals are in the back making decisions about an event. How else would we have arrived at a thread decided who will be casting, when this event will happen, and how it will work without any prior discussion. If this is indeed a community event, why was Brick not approached? Why was Urz not approached? They have just as much right as leto, They are the senior commentators and producers, if they say no that's one thing, but it doesn't seem that way. Ideally they'd all work together to do this. I want this to happen as soon as possible, I've hated these delays, but just because qwerty is absent doesn't mean anyone can just pounce on it and say "mine!".
