I'll text him and remind him to check the thread.

Thanks.

For BFC, we had talked about limiting to a much smaller list than the 68 we have been using. That being said, we need 64 for 16 teams to draft 4 each.
Do we just want to drop the 4 most broken? If so what's the consensus?

Everyone could get Ordinary Day, then we drop the list to 48.

Please give feedback

I normally have about 12 PM in my inbox, mostly your saved email addresses.
I currently have 113

I kind of like the idea of everyone having access to ordinary day.

Where is the list of which ones are currently allowed/excluded?

Ordinary Day is identical to nothing based on the set up...?

Oh yeah, I was thinking of both players using BFCs. If we'ere only having the visiting team play them, ordinary day would be the same as no BFC.

I say one of the one's we drop is ordinary day as it won't do anything beneficial. Also dropping earthquake and ones that are mostly useless would be good.

Giving everyone Ordinary Day would be akin to a dummy battlefield condition. That seems fine.

Actually, that raise a question--can the visiting team choose to NOT use a battlefield condition under our new rules? Or do you have to play one of your drafted BFCs every game?

This is a valid point. I would say 3/team is fine. Don't see a reason to exclude the most broken, as only one team will need to face it once in one season

I don't think we should limit BFCs. I hate Malice, but if I know I will face it, or have a possibility of facing it, I can plan for that.

I think we stick with every visitor has to submit one of their BFCs each round except pre-season. If having the option of not submitting a BFC is important, I say we allow Ordinary Day to be drafted by each team.

I didn't think about this. There are currently 65 BFCs. With 16 teams that means 64 BFCs will be drafted.

Do we want to make BFCs non unique anyway? Meaning anyone can choose any BFC like we do with Team Feats.

Personally, I would be fairly against non-unique BFCs, if only because then there might be a proliferation of just a few.

I would say 2 BFCs, but repeatable (i.e. not-single use) and Ordinary Day might be an option.

That or drop it down to 3 BFCs, single use, and Ordinary Day?

There are also 23 event dials, most of them simple and fun. A few have too much going on. I absolutely love Pariah

Some BFCs are very powerful, but the worst case scenario is that you will face it once during the regular season (and you can plan for the possibility). Consequently, I don't think we need to ban any BFCs. (But in case we all decide to ban BFCs, might I suggest banning Bright Lights? )

I favor 3 BFCs (single-use) and Ordinary Day for everyone.
