Nana's Good STGT Planning/Interest Check

[Nana]

NG-STGT

I've been wanting to run a STGT with a certain batch of 5 games, all of which are fantastic and great. They're not exactly kusoge, and I think should all be pretty dang fun. But they are all at least a little bit janky, and very very obscure.

Is there any particular set of 5 weeks coming up (in 2017) which people would be interested in participating?

I want this to be a pretty-laid back tourney for people of all skill levels, and for people without a lot of time to commit. This will be reflected in the games I choose as well.

EDIT: Changed 'an STGT' to 'a STGT.'

[STGAlmond]

It is "an stgt" if you are intending it to be read as an abbreviation since when you read out the letters it starts with a vowel sound.


I don't think I ever have 5 contiguous weeks where I have lots of free time, but October will generally be good for me. I believe I've only participated in one event here, so don't take much weight from my opinion.

you know what'd be really nice? a tourney that has actually good games instead of lolsoobscure funnigame shite.

I believe Trap does that partially to level the playing field. Someone who's new to DDP isn't going to beat the score of a veteran in just a week.

Less games that are outright nauseating would be nice though.

the only field that was leveled in trap stgt was the amount of disgust

[Despatche]

I would be ok with doing this right now, because I'm STGT-starved.

We need games with bare scoreboards, so people will actually play those games. Hopefully these would also be playable, seeing as someone made a board for them. Just making new boards for silly games isn't as interesting.

[ACSeraph]

I will try to join up. Been a while since Ive done any serious scoreplay.

I'd be all over the week of October 23rd onwards

Personally I'd love to have another tournie. It's been what, 2 years since the last one? Too long since i got angry at a game.

All this time later, I am still pissed about Sengeki Striker. And I am still pissed about Zing Zing fucking Zip.

[copy-paster]

Another STGT? My body is ready!

Obscure games like Trap's last year are welcome, as far as it's not on ZZZ tier.

a bit interested, though I'm bad

[davyK]

What about a tournament for people who only have 1 or don't have any 1CCs to their name?

Might get those of us with less talent/time/discipline to get involved more instead of looking on from the sidelines.

[EmperorIng]

I feel like 90% of the participants of an STGT don't 1CC the games they're playing anyway. If anything some good-natured competitive playing fosters the skills that can lead to more 1CCs, like savestate practice and memorization.

I'm down, just say when
