Re: Soldiers of Valhalla - nominations and discussion

More judges and requiring the same amount of votes to Induct would certainly speed up the process. A judge could then skip over a design or two that held no interest to them.

I wish people wouldn't be disappointed when we choose not to review a custom. It can't really be helped, I guess.

My own kid is working on a whole faction (it's awesome, you guys just wait), but for reasons that will eventually become abundantly clear I had to explain to him gently that some customs, no matter how awesome, don't really belong in the SoV.

This site is filled with awesome customs, and so far only one is in the SoV. I personally do not own a Zombie Hulk, but I do own some of the others that are not in the SoV, and I would not trade them for a mountain of Zombie Hulks.*
Lol, I didn't mean for it too come out like that. I was trying to convey I was a little disappointed but was glad you were being so thorough. I just kind of totally failed. Lol sorry about that. I fail at saying what I'm trying to say while typing.

Hello. I have updated my signature in an attempt to convey absolutely nothing, and waste your time reading this every time I post. Thank you.

Re: Soldiers of Valhalla - nominations and discussion

That's quite an interesting thought...more judges

(Not that I am a member of SoV or think I'd become a judge anyways)

My customs.

Re: Soldiers of Valhalla - nominations and discussion

Hey would anything change if I found 40 soulknifes spread over 8 websites?

EDIT: I found 50 soulknives over 13 websites. If I posted all the info would that help at all?

Re: Soldiers of Valhalla - nominations and discussion

Adding just one more judge (without changing anything else) would significantly alter the selectiveness of the system, because it would mean a card could reach the SoV on a 6-2 vote.

The idea of having a larger panel of judges, while keeping the number of "yes" votes for induction and "no" votes for rejection the same, is an interesting one. I will say that we have a really solid panel of judges right now, and I wouldn't want it diluted too much. But I can think of several other folks who clearly have the chops to be judges here.

Or you guys could, you know, work faster.

Re: Soldiers of Valhalla - nominations and discussion

Hey Lamaclown! Come over here, quick! They figured out we're slow!

...

Joking aside, it pains me that we are moving this slowly. For myself, I'll be doing more playtesting soon. As you say, dok, it is important we remain committed to our high standards. I want guys like me to be able to allow units I approve to be used at my tournaments.

On the other hand, our speed is currently "glacial," if you can really call that a speed, and like all my fellow judges I would like to see us move a little faster.

Re: Soldiers of Valhalla - nominations and discussion

Like Elginb and D_S, I'm concerned about how much dok's Templer Cavelry get for 50 points, but the Templar's do need quite a bit of help. I'm going to chicken out on a vote right now while I ponder them.

Lt. Jake Alexander by samuelfrost 4 has received 4 NO votes to review (Dad_Scaper, Elginb, Killometer, nyys), but I will wait a litle while to remove him from the queue to see if his availability changes any votes.

Just a thought but if I changed him from a soldier too something else, and made him have no relation to Drake would that make him fit in the theme of the game better?

LOL! They're onto us. Oh well, since it out of the bag now...

As DS has stated, we dislike the slowness with which we have been operating lately. We are going to try to pick up the pace so that the many excellent customs in our backlog will get the attention they deserve. Of course, thoroughly playtesting a unit can be a time consuming process.

Just to prove I am walking the talk, I ran some tests with Priscus tonight. So far my thoughts are... well, wouldn't want to say anything too prematurely

Re: Soldiers of Valhalla - nominations and discussion

"Soldier" doesn't bother me. I just haven't seen too many WWII pics showing our troops with long, flowing hair.

Haha ok. What about a Guerrilla fighter? Or a mercenary?
