So it has been suggested to Britify the Battle Tower with a queue, and an intense debated sparked about how those queues should be treated, if implemented. The end result was the following proposals:
[box]No Change:
No queue will be enforced.[/box]
[box]Mandatory List:
All posts must contain a list of all battles that are waiting, along with format. Referees are not obliged to use this list when accepting matches to ref.[/box]
[box]Dogfish44's Single Queue:
All matches join a single queue. Referees are required to take the earliest in the queue they are capable of handling.[/box]
[box]Flamestrike's Multi-Queue:
The Battle Tower will have two queues implemented. One queue will be for Singles matches only. The second queue will be for matches of doubles or greater. In each queue, a prospective ref would be allowed to take the first match they feel they are capable of reffing. However, this has its limits; in the Singles queue, you may not skip a match of the same size or smaller of the you end up taking, and in the Doubles+ queue, you may not skip a match of the same size or smaller that is in a format which uses the same number or less of active Pokemon on the field.

[box]Frosty's Locking Queue:
All matches join queues (singles and others). When a match with all battlers present has not been taken for 5 or more days, then no other matches from that queue can be accepted until the aforementioned match is picked up or cancelled. If 10 days has passed, the lock is extended to all queues. A match with more than 6 pokemon per side can't lock.[/box]
And our ballot is:
[box]No change
Mandatory List
Dogfish44's Single Queue
Flamestrike's Multi Queue
Frosty's Locking Queue
[/box]
Vote, whatever. EDIT: Vote in order of preferance. Put all options in order if possible.
