Most YouTaites that I've seen so far are pretty friendly, and don't mind giving advice or lending a hand when others need it. Yeah I thought I should...hmm maybe I'll ask Anba since I've talked with her a bit before....

As for the other things you guys have in mind...don't worry I thought of those things too. I understand the pros and cons of everything that's why I setting up a voting thing in the first place to see what people are comfortable with.

I can't say anything for certain right now since the results of possible voting have not been decided yet but yeah I kinda have a tree branch diagram of how it'll go.

If the Yes votes have reached an undisclosed number by 2 or 3 weeks this how the voting process will probably be like. Also to make sure people know what exactly they are voting for I'll put a list of pros and cons before the poll (which will not be on the wiki since as you can see there it would be easy to cheat).

O1

Randomized vs. Self picked groups

O2

Duet vs. Group

O3 (if not duet & if not self-picked(maybe))

People per group, option from 2-8 to select from

Basically everything will depend on the voting so some of the options may change according to how popular it may be and so forth.

If there are any more options you can think of I'd love to hear them as well~

At the moment I only have those options and an option for choosing between only Vocaloid songs or Japanese songs in general

Also for those who are curious the confirmed judges are:

Jun (BLUEBIRD), Rasu (Raspomme) and me. Basically all the admins~

Our perks are that none of us know much about Youtaite so there's no bias ヽ(´∀｀)ノ

Anyhows I'd like to keep the judges at a low number since I don't you need that many judges anyway and I think too many could cause problems. Maybe I'll try to find 1 or 2 youtaite judges.

Even if popular youtaite join (highly doubt so), it seems that Rasu and I have an "anti-bias" towards them so we would expect more from them (and thus be more fair to the newbies).

Honestly though, what I'm looking for isn't like, I dunno what to call it, but as long as everything flows well together I'll like it. Also I'll talk to the others about it but I think that near the end (if the battle comes to be), we'll be judging on overall improvement not just like how pro everything looks.
