SO MANY CONGRATULATIONS to both teams!! It was a joy to watch and play. I’m deeply impressed- I’ll elaborate with your specific questions.
Conducting it entirely in Community rather than being supported by editorial and other formats presented unique challenges. The formatting of each topic was beautifully executed, and at times even reminded me a bit of a board game. The way each set of MM match-ups (between ToT and DD) was really well-coordinated.
The initial bracket submission round was really exciting and I loved seeing how involved everyone got- that first round is always the most magical, so many hopes!
If I had to come up with something to improve on, I think having it solely in community and creating many different topics made it a little harder to follow the continuity of the event. I don’t have an immediate solve for that. What bubbles up is the way @Nathan.Payson created his Rebirth Reading Orders
I think it went well for the times we could promote it. I think it really clearly proved out the challenges of bannering being one of the only really reliable ways we have to feature topics- when it was featured, it soared. Otherwise, it was a challenge.
But I was very impressed with how people kept up with it and were deeply invested.
I wasn’t surprised
I believe we do. My parsing now is taking the results of both MM’s and comparing them against the promoted campaigns like Round Robin and Nightwing’s Doggo polls, and slicing them to show the value of MM without any external support still receiving a significant amount of engagement.
Yep They were very interested in the tournament after I did a presentation to the Publishing team and they asked me to share more in a smaller leadership meeting. We’re getting swept up in the “now” (hi, Fortnite), but I believe that it’s on the radar enough for when it’s time to start reminding folks again (which I will do with the aforementioned data slicing/comparison).
Across many devices from over the years- I’m sure I could pull something together if I dug around. I do have at least one “proof” photo for each creation, though.
That’s awesome. Please do pass on any information that you are able to from that eventual smaller leadership mtg.
You know one of the motivations I had was to not let MM die on the vine and get the suits to sit up and notice. I’m glad we’ve been able to give you hard data.
I can confirm that series appeared on DC Universe Infinite April of 2019
There have been some technical issues with devices like iPads where certain comics don’t load properly. Or maybe it’s due to improvements in our search functionality. Either way, I’m glad they’re happy!
Heya KM, it’s not going too badly, thank you for asking! I hope your week has been going well, as well I DO INDEED plan on watching the new MK movie, I wouldn’t miss it! How about you?
The reason we limit this is because the negative side of that opportunity is, we give new members a chance to say whatever they like. We need more subtle ways to ask people to practice courtesy and poise when engaging in our Community. Today’s challenges with Fortnite are a very good example of this. It is difficult for us to manage multiple reports when the same new user repeatedly shares their frustration with us, without fully understanding the guidelines and expectations of our forums.
Sorry Don-El, I totally missed this! Looks like you’re all having a great time, though Right now the best way to get a banner is to DM the moderation team at least 24 hours in advance of the event. It’s not an elegant system, and we’re doing our best to keep up- one of the next custom developments I’m excited about is being able to schedule banners in advance.
