Self-Reffing

[ZhengTann]

In an effort to promote counter-farming allow new players to enjoy as much of ASB as possible with FE mons, discussion on self-reffing has been sparked, and a proposal has been put forward:

1. Referee Training Program for new referees is set up. Led by two or three individuals. Traditionally, trainers referee three regular battles under tutelage from a tutor referee who shows them the ropes. Will include an array of matches (Items = On / Switch = OK / Obscure Arenas / etc).
2. A whitelist of users approved for self-refereeing is created by the leaders, based on general competency and game understanding.
3. Go through the program to get whitelisted.
4. Upon completion of the program, users get a free Exp. Share and are whitelisted.
5. Limit self-refereeing to 1v1 and 2v2 matches.
6. Limit self-refereeing to one match at a time.
7. Limit self-refereeing to three matches within a 24 hour time span (e.g. once the first match begins, you need to wait 24 hours before starting a fourth).
8. Program is run by head(s) and is updated frequently (like any other facility).
9. KOC is not rewarded in these battles.
10. All other forms of refereeing and battling still remain.

So let's just get on with it.

Welp, someone has to lead the voting here I guess.

I'm still on the fence with this one, but this can be tweaked if there's a problem. I'd also like to advocate the use of public dice rolls wherever possible in the program.

Well, the referee training program is already in development... In depth discussion among ASB staff will be needed for implementation of all parts.

[Its_A_Random]

Implement Birkal's proposal.

On the fence but I am very hard pressed to find an argument against it so I guess we can just call this a majority and unleash the self-referees???
