Day 571: Monokuma
Approved by @NonSpecificGuy
Welcome to Rate Their Chances! This is a reboot of the game played during the Brawl, Smash 4 and Smash 4 DLC Speculation periods.
How to Play
Each day there will be a focus on a specific character or concept for Smash Ultimate. On occasion when the schedule ends up permitting, there will be double days. We shall rate these characters both on how likely we view them and how much we desire them from 0-100%. When posting, you also can nominate characters or concepts to rate at a later period.
RTC at the end of the day is a debate thread and a game. Naturally, it might be frustrating to see one of your most wanted characters have people argue against them or not want them.
As a baseline, each poster is given five nominations per day per character that is rated. Abstaining will net the minimum number of nominations that are available that day. If you are providing scores, for your scores and nominations to count you need at least two sentences per score. If you write over a paragraph for each score, you will earn double noms. To make things as simple as possible, five sentences is considered a paragraph for this game.
For example, if it was a double day and you wrote two paragraphs per each character for their scores, you would get 20 noms. If you wrote two paragraphs for a character on a single day, you would get 10 noms.
In terms of getting extra noms, there are a few things that you can do. RTC has a discord server where you can earn extra noms through small tournaments we hold. But the main method is through predicting what chance a character would get the next day. For this, the closest overall guess gets the extra noms equal to the noms they got that day. Getting it within 1.5% and being the closest would earn double noms. Getting within .1% would earn 100 bonus nominations.
Rules
1. Characters must originate from a video game. Deconfirmations mean a character is not able to be nominated.
2. You're allowed to debate but please no flame wars. Also please refrain from non-explanations, as a spirit of debate is encouraged. Do not derail the thread, as that ruins the discussion. Most importantly, be civil, both in your arguments and counter arguments.
3. Posts lacking at least 2 sentences in reasoning of chance and want will be invalid and your scores and nominations will be ignored. Abstaining from a rating will not require reasoning.
4. Please do not discuss a character after their day has ended. If you wish to discuss a character again start nominating them for a rerate, however please wait at least two weeks before renominating a character.
5. Please avoid counter votes on chance. You are free to disagree but do not rate something negatively to be a jerk. Specifically, counter voting against a character or concept is not
6. After the day ends, participants will have 120 minutes to get final late votes in. After that point votes will no longer be counted.
7. Although you are encouraged to be creative with your posts, please make sure the chance and want scores and nominations are distinctly visible, such as above your explanation. Other options could include bolding your scores to make them easier to see.
8. A character must have a support thread to be nominated. While joke characters are fine, at least make a support thread in order to further a character’s discussion.
9. Minor research on a character is preferred. The new day post will have a link to the support thread’s OP. In the support thread, the new day of RTC will also be linked to give members of any character’s support group a chance to argue in their favor. This also means that each support thread bumped on the day they are rated.
10. Nominations are locked after a certain point when the next week’s characters are decided. On the last day of this locked in schedule, the next top 7 will be determined.
11. Fixed schedules to rerate popular characters and concepts will be implemented after certain amounts of time, usually after a few big reveals or two that could potentially influence a character or concept’s chances. While this fixed schedule will be ultimately decided by the RTC moderation team, user feedback on this is encouraged.
12. Each day will last around 48 hours unless there is activity going on at that time. No day will exceed 72 hours.
