Okay, clearly this did not work as intended, so new plan.

1. Go to ACME Bowl and take a picture of the results screen after playing any song on ITG. You also have to be in the picture. Think of a Yasu AAA style picture.

2. PM that picture to me, along with your vote for or against brackets. No other discussion, just a picture, and a yes or no on brackets.

3. On November 11th, I will go through all of these picture votes and figure out who won, and that's what we'll do.

The reason I'm doing it this way now is that people were trying to rig the polls, and this solves two main issues: If you can't get to ACME, you can't get a picture of you playing at ACME, and two, you can't tell people they haven't tried the pads yet if they have tried the pads, as proven by a screenshot of them playing at ACME.

All I care about is that we reach some sort of consensus. I'm not voting.

For everyone who wants to beat their head against the nearest wall because we have to talk about this AGAIN: Thanks for being patient with me. I'm just trying to figure out the best way to do the right thing (listen to everybody) without unnecessary drama.

If you post anything in this thread about whether the brackets should go back or not, I will ban you. Seriously. Thread discussion is only for logistical questions.

EDIT: I will not share votes, but I will post the pictures to this thread, because now there is a meta-competition. Best/funniest picture will receive a free e-amuse card. Smiley

Pretty straight forward, I like it. I will try to muster up the best yasu pose I can think of. Best yasu pose gets a free game of ITG or ddr from me Grin

You know what, Tuan, this gave me a great idea.

Free e-amuse card for the best picture. I will post all of the pictures in the thread, though the votes corresponding to the pictures will be anonymous.

No sandbagging! Actually give the pad an unbiased try before making a vote please!

But yeah, this sounds like an interesting way to do it  Grin

Oh shoot, sorry Laura. I forgot and I instead posted it publicly instead of through PM.

It's okay, everyone makes genuine mistakes occasionally, which is why I edited your post instead of banning you. Smiley I know you didn't mean to start any drama! But in the future, I will have to start making good on my promise to ban anyone who posts their votes in the thread, regardless of intent, because I do lose credibility as a moderator as soon as I don't enforce my own rules.

So reminder: DO NOT post any bracket discussion in this thread, just discussion about the logistics involved in taking pictures. You can post your pictures here if you want, too, just not your votes.

Hey guys, just a reminder that this is still happening and so far I haven't actually officially received any votes. In the event that I somehow receive no votes at all before the cutoff, I'll default to leaving the machine in its current state and continuing to maintain it that way.

So it's November 11th. We have six votes, and it's a tie. I'm giving everybody an extra week to hopefully break the tie, because I sure as hell don't want to make that call. If by a week from now the tie has not been broken, I will flip a coin. I am serious about this. Make sure to vote. <3

EDIT: NEVERMIND. I missed a vote. It isn't a tie. I'll post the pictures (without votes) and final results later today.

1. Gerrak, sorry dude, but rules are rules. I've been too lax in the past, but I gave SEVERAL warnings and you came in here and did exactly what I said not to do both IN BOLD TEXT IN THE OP and then AGAIN IN LATER POSTS. You're banned for a week.

2. THE BRACKETS WILL STAY OFF. NO BRACKETS WON. All y'all who verbally abused me over this got mad about nothing. Democracy works.

3. I'll post all the pictures so we can vote on best picture later today! <3

Yeah. He didn't send me a picture, which was a requirement for voting, and he also didn't send me a PM, which was another requirement for voting.
