To be completely honest it's kind of unfair to have it in the Lounge. If there was no mod affiliation and some random posted it in the Lounge, it would definitely be moved straight to Games. It's a Tournament game, by definition it should be in the Games section. I don't think it's fair to have ANTM in the Lounge just because it's special or w/e.

same and tbh seeing the ratings this past season it's not really that special anyways

I thought it would do better in The Lounge (I even suggested it to Matty during planning) but it seems that people missed it being in Games, so I think it should move back tbh.

I think, like you said, it just needs some new challenges, or revamp of existing ones. When I played last season, they were pretty much the same ones I did back in cycle 9 (?) in 2012 (?).

There also seems to be a lot of pressure in that game, which I think puts people off a little. I'm not sure how that can be relieved though honestly. I think a lot of it might be self-inflicted from the contestants.

I think what might help with that too, is more judge/contestant interactivity. It'd be nice to have them post more in the thread and get to know the contestants more in there. Rather than it just be, challenge, comments, talk about results, everyone leaves.

There's so much pressure because of the whole environment of the game. Expectations are really high and judges are scrutinizing and deadlines are short and challenges are difficult. Whether or not you see this as a problem is up to you, some people like that but it's very consuming.

I think it needs those high standards, to a certain degree. That's why it's been one of the most prestigious games for so long. But I think with new challenges and more host/judge/contestant interaction, there could also be a fun social side opened up alongside the challenges, which has been lacking in past seasons.

Most games give a 48 hour deadline and that's what I do. We can't spend a week on a challenge.

I would say get rid of Branding, but i'm kinda biased since I always do bad at it.

(I think everyone finds that too hard though, maybe it could be altered if you want to keep it)

From early Antm discussion with the judges I have right now, we all agree Brand is a good challenge to keep

Sadists! But since I'll never be joining again, I don't mind.

You have to keep branding. It's critical.

Move it back to games.

And make my failed build-a-challenge idea a challenge

Wait Matty's thread title change on PH6

Keep it. I already have my entry planned
