Please try to post your reasons in the thread when voting.

Also, the ruleset that I would propose would NOT replace the ones in attackfrog's post that CFL tournaments currently use. These are an entirely different set of rules and guidelines for use in Ruination only, and will still be tweaked between each Ruination tournament.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯
attackfrog's ruleset is the standard ARC ruleset btw, he just took the time to actually give it a good formatting :P

E: also you already know that I just prefer the other ruleset so there's my reason :P

It might help if you would have, at the very least, a rough layout of your proposed ruleset, Kody-although, I've agreed with almost everything that I've seen on the Discord chat, so far (though I may have missed bits and pieces of it due to being on the road for awhile today).

R4 is your tournament, Kody, and if you feel the need for a different ruleset to make it unique, than you do that-as long as you're not alienating the majority of active participants of the board.

TBH, I'd be up for something different, myself. Every event should be unique in some way, whether it is the varied arenas of the CBC series, or the realism of the C&B series.

Of course, the challenge is getting enough of us on board to participate ;)

Honestly, I wanted to get enough ideas from different people before proposing anything at all, but I can see where you're coming from.

Yeah, Ruination is my tournament, and I don't want it to become a chore, but at the same time what makes things better for me may not make things better for those competing. So I'm kind of stuck.

jack's ruleset, as GABE said it, is the normal ruleset for all ARC tournaments as of late

so i don't see why we would change up the normal rules, unless we're doing jack's ruleset with some different changes, i.e the triangle armor shit

It would be a ruleset exclusively for Ruination, not a replacement for the regular ruleset.

I like how it's my ruleset now :P

I wouldn't mind a tournament with the rules changed around a bit. It would be a good way to test if rule changes would be broken or not, and the current meta has started to feel kind of stale. Altering some things could make room for more creativity, if done right.
