  GHIBLI CUP 2021 DiscussionPost Reply with Quote Edit/Delete Post Search for Posts by arren18 Report Post to a Moderator        IP Address Go to the top of this page

I didn't get round to bringing this up as early as I did last time, but I want to start getting ready for the next Ghibli Cup!

First, I'd like to pick out the host, and then I can make a logo for it. Last time I came up with some suggestions and made a poll. Should we do it the same way again, or does anyone have other ideas?

The other thing I'm thinking about is making some adjustments to the qualification round (the first part in December). I still want to do this because I like how it narrows things down a bit, but I'm considering doing only part of it on the forum, and also doing parts on the Facebook page and Discord. The idea is that it could help make people aware that the Ghibli Cup is happening even if they don't regularly visit the forum.

Please post your views on these two points! If you have other questions or ideas, those would be welcome too.

To be honest, If you wanted to do it the same way I wouldn't mond, but if you want to make some changes, go for it... I have confidence in your judgment...

Thanks husky. I'll make a poll for picking the host pretty soon then, and I'll give the qualification round ideas more of a think.

So all of the qualifying round polls are up! You can vote between now and Saturday. Note that two of the matches are not on the forum: one is on the Tavern's Facebook group and one is on the Discord server. Just ask if you don't know how to access those!

Ooh, I was wondering where the others were. Thanks!

Nice work on the logo btw, it's cute! The ship's wheel for the 0 is a nice touch.

Thank you!! I had to think a bit harder to come up with an idea for this logo since there aren't any mascots or anything, but doing the nautical theme was fun.

Oh also, I realised I forgot to point this out before: the times I'm giving this year will all be in GMT. This is purely for my own convenience so I don't accidentally miss the closing time. Please keep that in mind, especially when we get to the main tournament!

Another thing I want to point out is that I adjusted the wording in some of the rules on tiebreakers, because I realised (a) it was unclear and (b) it kinda hindered the goal of increasing variety in the results each year. The rules now specify that when there is a tie in the qualifying stage, if EITHER one didn't qualify last time, their best ever results will be compared.

Anyway, apart from that, there are still a couple more days to go in the qualifying stage. If you haven't voted yet, remember to do so by Saturday!

Later today I'll post the threads for the group stage! Remember that this will go on for two rounds of three days each. You can vote in both rounds, and your free to change your choices for the second round. In this stage, rank the films in each group in order of preference, but please do leave out ones that you haven't watched.

As always, feel free to post in here if there's anything you need to ask.

You still have most of today to vote in the first two quarter finals! I think there's about 8 hours to go.

About one more day left for the last two quarter finals. One of them is still extremely tight!

Huh, a landslide for Whisper of the Heart. I'm surprised.

Yeah I didn't think it would be quite such a clear victory. I guess Whisper is the one to beat as usual.
