I've said it multiple times that I post splash per week, and yet I still get complains about it.

Because people are used to having one splash posted with all bots and being able to make predictions right away and have some thought of what the outcome of a match may be.

Yeah used to, but every tournament is not similar. Besides, Splashes are posted after each video, so you guys have always 1 week time to predict the heat winner. For example, when the Heat B is uploaded to YT, you get the Heat C splash.

I suppose it does make it more like the actual series were, when you only found out who was fighting who during that week's episode, while retaining the prediction factor. Perhaps a week is a bit long, though, if people are getting a little impatient with it.

But Jonzu is right. Even if he hadn`t mentioned it in the rules he could post the splashes as he does now.
Also why do you need predictions? The game can be a bi*ch somethimes letting the better bots loose.

That and it's been almost 2 weeks since Heat A

So if we get one heat every week with 16 heats plus semifinals, finals, and other battles, this tournament is gonna take half a year to do.

Please tell me I'm not the only one who thinks that's f-cked up.

That, of course, doesn't include the numerous times Jonzu will get grounded by the end of that year long period.

Badnik, Heat A was in 10th day of May, which is week ago. I'll get the Heat B for you tonight.

Jonzu you REALLY should post splashes before videos, so we actually can have predictions or something. It's totally pointless if you post splashes and videos at the same time. And this is for everyone's sake. Also, this is coming from a moderator.

But i will not have any more complaining about tourney length here. One half year is pretty standard for a large tournament with so many entries. jonzu, you are fully allowed to delete any whining about this being long as long as you keep your 1 heat per week schedule.

Has joeblo or clickbeetle ever faced "too long" comments for their largest tournaments ? I don't think so. I believe this may be a case of pointless jonzu bashing.
