I am hoping the Clout Cup and Tag League, will be able to offer a different alternative going forward.

Clout Cup seems interesting for when the details are up and tag titles are always fun.

People are probs gonna bitch about any change made ngl :lol just different people for different changes lol but yeah asking for feedback and doing what you think is best is fine by me

I'm not coming across as bitchy am I? My bad if I am. Just offering 2 cents because it's like the 4th time it's happened to me lol

I’m not to picky, I just got to remember more to actually take part. I just like making predictions and having a good time.

I like bonus questions for the record but I'm not sure if I would in this current league where we're predicting all these other companies than before, might feel like more of a chore to actually make predictions if they were a thing too at this point

Nah, not directed at you at all. I just mean mean any change is made there will always be at least one person that dislikes it, just can't please everyone. You've thrown out some good ideas

Yeah, exactly no matter what not everyone will be happy. All ideas should at least be given and go from there

I've also seen used in other leagues a 'confidence scale' (idk how to word it).

But basically say you had NXT today, right, and there were 5 matches. You would assign 5 points to the match that you figured you would predict 100% correctly (so for nearly everyone that was KOR - you earn 5 points). So your max score would be 15. Say two people went 4-1, but on the points system went 14-13, that breaks the tie. Complicates things if they go 5-0 though :lol

Maybe there could be a belt for that type of idea?

Oh yeah this is how we used to do it before Davey started the current league too. If there were 5 matches, you assign hour most confident 5 points and your least confident 1 point, etc

That’s how it was before before this overhaul was done when Davey was as doing it, then juice took over and kept what Davey was doing basically. But before that, it’s how it was

Yeah confidence scale (never heard that name before for it but it works great) and bonus questions was the previous system. I'd usually just do like 5 bonus questions, I think I remember Smark doing more but we had the same basic system there. No titles or anything tho, just points accrued lol

I mean, I like Juice's way as well, hence my suggestion of a separate title division that's purely optional to join. Maybe "The Elite" Championship?

I’d love that basically because anytime I pick against Charlotte, I would just give it a 1 :slip:

There is something I am probably going to introduce earlier than planned - as an Alpha/Beta test and see how it pans out. Although, this will probably be something that later effects the Grand and Tag Titles. The Event Championship, will retain its current gimmick, as it does the job it was created for.

Unless you have a perfect score one round and lose I don't really see how you can complain about ties, you could have picked differently and won so not really anyone else's fault

I guess - you should all prepare for this belt to be pilot tested at Event #14
