Should we Open a Council Review Board??? And have any Rules on it??

Poet ill be on skype later tonight probably around 9 CST or 7PST so if you can give me the low down on what happened.

rules for reviews
1. Speak your mind and not be a brown nose.
2. feel free to use small amounts of criticism. don't troll a page.
3. don't force people to adopt your ideas.
4. don't search fora persons stuff just so you can troll them.
5. don't double review without a persons permission
6. try to take a few minutes to write review but don't t over 5 days.
7. you can call your friends for a third opinion if someone has a disagreement with you.
8. don't troll someone if they make something stupid
9. There are powers that the creator has that aren't directly stated but are implied
10. Reviewers can only review what is on the forum.
examples: no reviewing peoples families. no reviewing pets. no reviewing houses. no reviewing politics.

You guys can't guess where I stole these ideas from

The MCCC is already underway, but I can wait for Poet to post the finished template here. Since the contestants normally post their champion in their own unique format (some of them already have), it may be better to introduce the template as an option rather than a requirement. To create an incentive for following the template, we could use Havoc202's suggestion of a Council Review Board and offer reviews to any champion that adheres to the template format. This way I can pitch the idea to Pirateelfdog as a resource, instead of a fundamental change to the MCCC rules.

I've been stalking this thread from time to time. I'm very proud you remember Echoing. HE has been gone for so long. As for Katsuni, i don't think she will have major time to pitch in, as she is piled under her own stuff and rarely has time even to pitch in to the council. The people that made the Thread of Aspiring Champions (Me, Blínd, Katsuni, Villanova, ICraig, and him whos name shall not be stated) are all going through some pretty big stuff, both in RL and in LoL, so I don't know if we will be able to help.

My personal opinion on the generaric champion structure is make ppl include all of the aspects and new people can use it, but I don't think you should take away the general creativism of the design. Some people will want o post more, and some people will want to post less.

Just my insight on the matter.

@Poet do you still think you'll have the pattern up today? If you do, i'll just postpone the release of my latest concept and format it your way to advertise it :P. If you think it'll take 1-2 more days, I'll post it as-is and reformat later.

I agree with you Blizt. There will always be a personal flair to designs, but given a general structure to use will help people find the information that they are looking for in concept. Consider it more of a foundation then a built house that you furnish.

Champion Creation Template:

In light of our recent meeting, we have drafted a Champion Template. This is a simple format you can use as a guide while creating your champions to organize your ideas and ensure that you don't omit any crucial information. This template may undergo some revisions in the future, but it's a good starting point.

Katsuni and I have chatted some, and will continue to stay in touch as things progress. She won't be able to be a real presence as far as "official" Council due to real life obligations, but she has offered to help out where she is able, namely with her weekly Q&A podcasts.

Echoing is a brilliant mind wasted on a bad attitude. Negativity only fosters further negativity. He is an example of how to NOT review a fellow Summoner, creative prowess aside. We will be posting a guide on proper review techniques in the near future.

Alright, reworking my champion to fit a format closer to this one (I'm still putting my personal touch to it mainly indents...)
