Thread 23531758

HELLO /m/ CITY!

The Summer Sun gives way to the chill of Autumn and the boys of Axis are getting prepared for another run to escape the Babbies! This time, a new format puts everyone on equal footing, and this means chances for promotion are going to be toss-ups. However, it's time as always to make new adjustments to the roster! Put your suggestions here and let's get the ball rolling!

>>23531758 (OP)
Our current roster for reference

It's time to bring the oddballs.

I'll suggest Motoko Kusanagi from Ghost in the Shell. I feel it's about time /m/ the team gets a rep from this series considering we're getting a new anime sometime next year that will FINALLY use the character designs and story from the source material.
If you want a more 'mecha' suggestion then Tachikoma of Fuchikoma would be a good rep for the series as well.

new format?

>>23531758 (OP)
Oh, signups are already starting?
Right, normally I'd reiterate the calls from the last roster poll to consider moving Godmars out of the net.
But considering this is the first time back to PES 15 in God knows how long, I'll let it slide since there will be a lot of other things to focus on.
>>23531944
I think it's still mostly the same format, GGSS with slightly reduced stats. The main thing is that fluid has to be on for all formations.
>>23531925
Do cyborgs count as mecha?

>>23531758 (OP)
SACK CHAR'S RED GUNDAM
BRING BACK RX-78-2

It's time to fix the timeline. Just say no to multiverses.

I heard the Mad Cat model is totally fucking fucked big time in PES 15.
Any news on that? 'Cause if the model is broke I think I'd rather it be cut for something else

>>23531758 (OP)
If GQuacks gets a player again, name them Quuuuuusterfuck.

Replace Char's Gundam with the OG or Destiny Spec 2 (with its clones alongside it)
Also replace Gridman with Gridknight

After the disastrous spring campaing, it has become very clear that this team needs a new goalkeeper. One, who will clinch victory from the jaws of defeat in the last moments. One who will, both figuratively and literally, beat up >our death flags. And speaking of death flags, there is no better candidate than Felsi Rollo! Yes, THE Felsi Rollo from Gundam: Witch from Mercury.

As has become tradition, I'm nominating Felsi's Dilanza as a Gundam rep.

Also, I was wondering if we could have Atom as a player? I think Astro Boy is quintessential /m/ that hasn't been represented much lately, despite Pluto releasing almost two years back now.

Flame God Rayearth for the 30th anniversary of Rayearth

>>23532273
I will check with our aesthetics people to see about Mad Cat. I'm hoping at least some workaround exists to allow some more intricate blenders to remain but we'll see.

>>23532082
We're running polls earlier as the possibility of a Qualifier still looms. /m/, unfortunately would be in this meaning we'd play a week prior to the Babby proper starting

>>23532082
Yeah, Cyborgs are mecha.
Just because most cyborgs aren't 30 meter tall robots doesn't mean they're not mecha.
Kamen Rider 1 is a cyborg, that why he and the original series is considered mecha. Every other Rider was sired in because of this.
Think of it this way for Motoko, her brain is the pilot and the rest of her is the mecha.
>>23532835
>>23532857
Both good suggestions. Also, damn, Rayearth is only 30 years old? I'm surprised to learn that series is younger than me.

It's time for the GOAT again.

bump

>>23531758 (OP)
getter out, getter black in

>>23537270
based
getter noir would work too

>>23533808
Not that guy but fair enough, Rider is a cyborg.

Throwing this one out as a joke

Bring the gear with the big iron on her hip back

>>23537829
No jobbers please.

>>23537835
But Hibiki and Boss Borot are on the team tho?

>>23532248
>>23532782
as was foretold

Also, give Gundam Beyond the Time as a hat trick horn. (I don't care that he never actually scores anymore, I just want it to be there.)

Oh shit, I meant to post yesterday but family:

Deadline for submissions is at 1pm ET/1700 UTC4

That should do it.

>>23539234
Kill yourself duel.

>>23539234
nah ignore this ballot stuffer

>>23539246
Ballot stuffing would be the same person voting more than once, not adding suggestions to the ballot before it is finalized.

>>23539253
>the same person voting more than once
which I don't doubt you do

>>23539256
I don't ballot stuff.

Sorry for the delay, but the poll is now live!

https://forms gle/ZiRxdazuFjrzDPwL9

>>23539397
done my part!
hope everyone here will make the right choices!

>>23539234
reminder to not vote for any of this shit

>>23539397
When does it end?

>>23542609
Undetermined but vote early in case!

>>23539421
I voted for some of them anyway, we need new blood.

>>23545623
Nah kill yourself drool.

Deadline set. You have until 1700 UTC/1pm EDT to vote!

>>23546379

Last chance to vote!

>>23549155
Time! Results after I get more cough medicine

Alright, enough waiting. Here's the results!

The Top 11 Players for the roster are:
>GaoGaiGar
>Yamato
>Macross
>Boss Borot
>Gridman
>Eva-01
>Ideon
>Bravern
>Mad Cat
>Mokoto
>Atom

Your Getter Rep will be:
>Black Getter!

Rider Rep:
>MASKED RIDER (KR Black)

Ultra Rep:
>Ultraman

As for Godmars, general consensus was to keep him as an alternate keeper so be prepared for more Shinji in Autumn!

Gundam results in a second. There's a discussion we need to have with this.

>>23549200
We're aware this is going to be very controversial. Your Gundam reps for Autumn are:
>RX-78-2
>Felsi's Dilanza

Now before you grab your pitchforks, we combed over votes. We even had special graphs made and everything to plot results. All we can surmise is that while this result looks like blatant rigging, we do not have any quantifiable evidence to confirm this poll was rigged. We did not want to just jump to calling it rigged without having concrete proof so we've made the decision to let this result stand, knowing full well people will not be happy with this decision. We at the /m/ Council will be exploring tightening security on these polls in case this was an instance of very covert rigging.

As always, here are the full results for transparency.

>>23549200
>more Shinji in Autumn!
Fucking finally.
>>23549209
Felsi's Dilanza controversial? How does the amount of votes compare to the previous two or three instances?

>>23549209
>clear cheating
>lol leave it in
Garbage. And it's something from the worst Gundam show to boot.

I'm done with the /m/ team. I hope you lose all the matches.

>>23549215
Kek go seethe in the /a/ drawthread like you always do retard.

>>23549213
While at face value, it doesn't seem controversial, it's the fact that one person repeatedly made the suggestion every poll. A lot of factors could give off the impression of rigging (lower than normal polling numbers, lack of better Gundam reps, dissatisfaction with the quuuuuuuusterfuck).

>>23549215
That implies you could read where the exit sign is to start with.

>>23549275
>it's the fact that one person repeatedly made the suggestion every poll
It's no different than duel suggesting his shitty picks every single time no matter how many times people tell him to fuck off, at least Felsi has an organic following in the board.
>A lot of factors could give off the impression of rigging (lower than normal polling numbers, lack of better Gundam reps, dissatisfaction with the quuuuuuuusterfuck)
>lack of better Gundam reps, dissatisfaction with the quuuuuuuusterfuck
Yeah I think it's the latter (I voted for Machu, mind you).

>>23549287
>at least Felsi has an organic following in the board.
no it doesn't. it's one retard spamming

>>23549287
>people tell him
Your unblocked VPN IPs used for samefagging does not make you more than one person.

>>23549209
>more than one person voted for Arc, Drive, Elysium, Janperson, Arael
Good
>Lot of folks did less than 11 votes
What?

>>23549312
Alex Jones! Damn autocorrect.

>says he's gonna leave
>stays seething and samefagging
lel

>>23549200
Some good reps in this roster, Motoko getting on the team, Atom as well, Black Getter getting a turn on pitch, sad about Gamera only getting a cup and but Godmars getting moved to sub keeper is something I expected. A lot of people have been unhappy with his performances the last few cup runs, but I am glad he's not getting moved and becoming the alternate.
>>23549209
>Grandpa and Felsi's Dilanza as the Gundam reps
Y'know, I fully expected OG Gundam to get back on after last time with Machu and Char's lackluster performance, but Felsi's Dilanza I didn't expect even though I did vote for it.
My reasoning for doing so was that 1.) I know it gets suggested every poll.
2.) i know there are fans of dyke from Mercury fans around the board, but one prominent one is a certain autist that I know watches the cup that literally calls themself Felsifag. I assume they're the one that always makes the suggestion so I know he's not just a merc and actually uses the board even if people hate the gimmick.
And finally 3.) Lole, wouldn't it be funny if this actually won.

I don't know if its rigged, but looking at the actual poll results there's variety of mixed options with any answer that has Felsi chosen, also 4 people that voted in the poll didn't even choose a 2nd Gundam rep. So some of the blame can be cast towards these people.
Well you know what they say about Democracy and what not, the Felsi guy wins this time.

Also, this will be the 1st time since the start of the decade where Megazord won't be on the team if I'm reading the team graph correctly. RIP.

>>23549406
Megazord fills the Sentai/Power Rangers slot of the team, and therefore automatically qualified due to no one suggesting an opponent.

>>23549406
>i know there are fans of dyke from Mercury
A lot of the felsifags aren't fans of the show, it's just a meme character that got a lot of love and fanart even after the show ended. And it's her mecha, not the goblin itself so I don't see why it would be a matter of controversy.

>>23549462
The robot itself is also the "Zaku II" homage of WfM, so there is that.

>>23549209
>>23549275
I honestly did not expect for this to happen at all, despite always holding out for hope. I do understand the concern, though. I fully admit that I'm an obsessed autist over the character, which is why I always suggest her to be added to the team. And as we all know, you can never know the lengths obsessed autists may go over these types of things (ala Dragonfag). However, I will say with my whole heart that I did not rig this poll, and I would have no reason to. It would not only bring shame to other Felsibros, but also smear the character's reputation as a whole on this board. It would also just make the entire cup much less fun to enjoy. If anything, seeing Felsi fail to get in through polling is as much of a funny tradition to me at this point as is suggesting her inclusion.
Nevertheless, I am very happy to know that Felsi made it in, and I will look forward to seeing her slip on the field in very critical moments.

Will she be a wingback or what? Also put a pineapple in the Dilanza model somewhere, maybe like a decal sticker.

>>23549209
>The singular Felsi schizo on /m/ ballot-stuffed a player on the team
This poor board just keeps getting worse.

>>23549906
it sure is

>>23549200
>>23549209
that's... huh... well shit, that's certainly a roster alright. i didn't think that felsi's dilanza would get that many votes. i just picked it as one of my gundam rep choices because it was the odd one out of the bunch
>>23549406
like what this guy said, i thought it would be funny to vote for it.

>>23549906
>>23550385
No, it was worse when this board voted a Kanker rep onto the team (Wo-Class)

>>23549906
off-topic spicballfags deserves worse

>>23552121
Cry about it.

>>23552337

Ah good the thread is still alive!

I have news to report. Due to some shenanigans, the Qualifier tournament has been condensed to 4 teams, meaning /m/ has automatically qualified for the Autumn Babby!

>>23560104
>felsi joins the team
>team qualifies on a friday
Coincidence? I don't think so.

>>23560104
What shenanigans?

>>23560162
nothing to do with us, one of the other teams didn't sign up so the fetus doesn't need to have six teams anymore

>>23560106
Was there ever any doubt?

>>23560182
to be specific, it was vrpg that didn't sign up for the babby on time

the goblin is a good luck charm

>>23531758 (OP)
so when do we play then?

>>23562965
Our first game would be either October 24th or 25th
