UncleHenry Posted March 12, 2008 Posted March 12, 2008 So I know some people are upset KIC Survivor got canned for this year, so let's start getting back into the game mood here. It's March, and that means tournament season. I've decided to have a mini-game this season in celebration. I need your help to pick the brackets. The brackets will be broken up into four sections; Action Zone / Oktoberfest, Coney Mall, Rivertown, and Nick / I-Street. To vote for attractions for the tournament, vote for 4 attractions in each section of the park. These could be rides, shows, restaurants, stores, any sort of attraction at the park. Now of course, if the popular vote was the only thing about this, the top seeds would win every time and we'd have no upsets. Here's the kicker. I will select 4 "Super Delegates" to vote in the tournament. These people will not vote for seedings, but will vote in the actual tournament. They will be people who are experts at the four areas in question. Their votes in the actual tournament will be worth four times as much as other voters. In exchange for that power, they will be unable to vote for attractions in this first round of voting to get them into the tournament. Here is how it would work... Round 1: Selecting attractions and rankings. "Experts" do not vote. All other members submit votes for 4 attractions per area. Rankings are then chosen based on number of votes. Round 2: Tournament. "Experts" vote, as well as all other members. Winner is chosen on results of a head to head vote against another attraction in the area. "Expert" votes are worth 4 points, while all other votes are worth 1. VOTING HAS BEGUN Please post your four selections from EACH area. That means four from AZ / Oktoberfest, four from Coney, four from RvT, and four from Nick / I-Street. Post them in this topic. The bracket will be released on Selection Sunday (this Sunday). Voting will be accepted until then, so make sure you get it in Saturday at the latest! Quote
UncleHenry Posted March 12, 2008 Author Posted March 12, 2008 I already have ideas for the 4 "experts", but I am open to others. If you think you have enough experience to be called an "expert" at an area, PM me with your experience. Quote
DropZone99 Posted March 12, 2008 Posted March 12, 2008 I think i could be considered an ''expert'' of Action Zone. Quote
UncleHenry Posted March 12, 2008 Author Posted March 12, 2008 Initial voting has begun! Make your submissions to the tournament now. The attractions with the most votes will be ranked higher in the tournament. Quote
UncleHenry Posted March 12, 2008 Author Posted March 12, 2008 FOUR attractions from EACH area. Angry, you still have 15 more votes to cast. Quote

UncleHenry Posted March 12, 2008 Author Posted March 12, 2008 Non-KIC members are also voting in this, but they are still knowledgable KI fans. So if the votes here do not match the rankings exactly, that is why. Quote

UncleHenry Posted March 13, 2008 Author Posted March 13, 2008 We have enough votes for attractions in Nick/I-Street (16 attractions have been nominated) but we still need more attractions to be entered from the rest of the park. Get your votes in before Sunday! Quote

TOPGUN1993 Posted March 13, 2008 Posted March 13, 2008 Does IJST count at River town or Coney Mall?.... last time I checked it was apart of Coney. Quote
MarketingExpress Posted March 13, 2008 Posted March 13, 2008 Does IJST count at River town or Coney Mall?.... last time I checked it was apart of Coney. Unless something has changed, and someone please correct me if I am wrong, IJST is a part of Rivertown. Quote
Jasper Posted March 13, 2008 Posted March 13, 2008 According to scramscapes new map it appears that BSC is in Rivertown. http://www.screamscape.com/html/ki_-_2008_map_0.htm Quote
UncleHenry Posted March 13, 2008 Author Posted March 13, 2008 As Screamscape can never be trusted, we will be going by the 2007 map. Backlot Stunt Coaster is a Coney Mall attraction. Please modify your votes to reflect that. Quote

Please modify your votes to reflect that. Too bad it is NOT in Coney Mall. It is in fact in Rivertown...I worked the ride last year...and was a part of Rivertown. But hey, your rules I guess. Quote
DropZone99 Posted March 13, 2008 Posted March 13, 2008 How is it in Rivertown? Im just wandering, not saying your wrong or anything. Quote

UncleHenry Posted March 14, 2008 Author Posted March 14, 2008 Tomorrow is that last day to vote your favorite attractions into the tournament. If not enough attractions are voted from each area, the area expert will vote for the remaining open spots in their section. Quote
