Daily Duel: Have Your Say

Post by Charlie Reams »

Several people have suggested running multiple simultaneous Duels. I don't think I want to have more than two, but I'm willing to go with popular opinion up to that point.

I've voted for 2.
Personally, I prefer the standard 15, but know that lots of you love the variants.
Consequently, one of each sounds like a great compromise. :)

If you have two you can call them 'Dual Duels'. Provided you pay me for use of the name.

And give me compensation due to the fact that Kai and Jon are merely offering a slightly altered version of my suggestion 'Daily Duels'.

Strongly feel one duel a day is plenty - any more than that and it will not feel nearly so special.

Maybe have one per day as currently, and have the occasional "mini series" as well? Such as an easter special - open for all, and runs for a week or something. Can imagine that going down very well.

I quite like option 3, then you could really mix things up with the variants without alienating people.

That's a good point. Perhaps one standard duel during the week, and 2 at the weekend, one of which is a variant?
