Re: Edison ranked
You know this is false. You can go on DB right now and see more Edison players than Goat players by over double. (At this exact moment there's 96 people playing Edison compared to 42 on Goats and 108 Modern.) Every major online event is hosted on DB for Edison so I'm failing to understand what you ...

Re: Edison ranked
Edison this past weekend had an official Konami event with almost 300 people, it's is now almost 3x the popularity of Goats, and is almost at the same amount of users as modern on DB. Why the massive disrespect to Edison players from DB? Edison is by far the biggest retro format now and It's only g...

Re: The "lack of judge issue" issue.
They are doing their job they just aren't doing it on your schedule, they're judges, not babysitters. Want a better environment to play in? Make one. I never said they had to do it on my schedule. You're still creating laziness by providing excuses instead of expecting better from the judges. But h...

Irrelevant kinda like you arguing, the answer won't change, the problem is not judges db needs better players. Glad you're okay with judges being lazy and not doing their job.

Re: The "lack of judge issue" issue.
Volunteering is offering your time willingly without payment. Youre confusing a judge, the person, with judging, the actual work that they're volunteering to do. Having the ability to do something does not require you to do it, if it did, you would not be volunteering. If you have a problem with th...

Re: The "lack of judge issue" issue.
You can't build a house without builders. You can't run a hospital without doctors. You can't have a criminal justice system without lawyers. If it was up to me, I'd have a judge online 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. I do not have the judges to do that. I cannot force the judges I do have to work o...

Re: The "lack of judge issue" issue.

Re: Take racism and bigotry more seriously
I came in thinking this forum was woke but oh god you are all so based! Never yield to globohomo frens! DB is a anonymous online Yugioh simulator. Race and sexuality just don't matter here (for playing the game). I could be literally anyone. That said, don't use that as an excuse to be a bigot, res...

Re: The "lack of judge issue" issue.
Actually you don’t go off somebody else’s schedule when you volunteer. You go off your own. Its volunteer. Aka not something one needs go do and does when they are able to. They volunteer at places and hours that work for them not the owner. The entire point of volunteer is it something extra you d...

Re: The "lack of judge issue" issue.
You not seeing judges online doesn't make them a glorified club all by itself. I already mentioned the thousands of calls individual judges have taken, let alone whatever the full total is if you add all of the judges together. Since you've brought these up though, why is it Genexwrecker says they ...

Re: The "lack of judge issue" issue.
You're basing that on what, exactly? Them not doing the schedule you've proposed? The OP already laid out a solution, as did Marshiedemon. Pass the exam, become a judge. You can show us how easy this "1 hour schedule" is. :twisted: What was it you said "for change to happen for other...

Re: The "lack of judge issue" issue.
Except right now it's not part of their job to be on a schedule, nor should it be. Judging isn't even a job in the sense that they're getting paid for this. Trying to force making a schedule on volunteers looks to be a lazy attempt at a solution that's only going to make the problem worse. They did...

Re: The "lack of judge issue" issue.
Ok, so they lose their status as a judge, and now there are less judges? Now the judges who left have fewer things to deal with, and there are fewer judges. :| That number would likely only go down from there as judges decide it's better not to deal with the timelines. Don't see there being enough ...

Re: The "lack of judge issue" issue.
Or they can choose instead to reject the schedule and not volunteer for those time periods. :| What motivation would they have to follow-up through with a forced schedule? If they don't show up, they lose their status as a judge. Simple as that. If you can't or are not willing to put time into a sc...

Re: The "lack of judge issue" issue.
We are always open to hiring more judges, but for obvious reasons we are very selective. Our consideration for someone becoming a judge starts with passing the DB judge exam. We value ruling competence on DB, hence why our judge exam is (intended to be) more difficult than the Konami RC-2 exam. As ...

Re: The "lack of judge issue" issue.
You simply don't understand how the players feel. Waiting on a judge for hours without one on. You judges say this because you don't know how it feels and you will never understand because of your positions on DB. This is a serious issue on DB that has not been fixed for years. That is simply pathe...
