Gonna be looking into Attack on Titan, for sure. Aku no Hana is... something I'm also onboard for. Because I know there will be absolutely no middle ground for this show. It's either gonna be the best show of the season or one of the worst. I'm definitely looking into Gargantia, too.
My chances of watching Majestic Prince is left up to impressions, as I already said. I like a lot of the stuff that's come out of the media for the show, but I'm not at all confident that the actual work will live up to any of it.

So many things can go wrong.
I could see the weekly voting working. The rest is too convoluted to retain the attention of everybody here.
Like, we could have a weekly poll to see what was the best episode for the week. Stuff like that. Nothing to do with the shipping war.

Azazel-san: me. I believe in the true shit eater.
It's not exactly an axiomatic approach, only if the bets were non-Euclidean geometries based on differing axiom sets.

But I said I was great at math.
THAT'S WHY THE SPORTS CLUB DIDN'T GIVE ME A BOOK.
This does sound fun to watch.
Actually it will be quite easy for Aku no Hana to end up being just another middling show. It happens to dozens of "interesting" shows every year.
Stop making gambling sound so interesting. You already fucked everyone up the last time in the manga thread, you're just exporting the formula to animegaf now! >_<
But the first season was already amazing. That's cheating!
The main reason for the weekly voting is so the losers can slowly suffer as they see their inevitable punishment increase.
Yes I'm a sadist.
This time it'll be even better.

Yeah that's some hedged bets right there.
But how do we account for longer shows and shorter shows. Surely on the normal formula a 1-cour series would have less risk than a 2-cour series, etc.
We're already expecting Shingeki no Kyojin to be the next Magi, huh?
Man...
Seriously, it fucking hurts to even read that. Duckroll on full blame if it sucks.
I think this would be better without any voting going on. That's what made his last betting pool so appealing in the manga thread, because there wasn't any sort of voting going on, it was entirely a bet on something which would be factually revealed!
Oh hell no. That sounds like a horrible idea.
It's not about analyzing risk, it's about putting something on the line for what you believe in.
People would lose interest too fast then >_>
If I wanted to make it more interesting, I could open voting to EVERY unique GAF member. Campaign for your favorite shows! Call in favors to boost your faction! It's all out war!
MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.
Well, it already has a much better story and characters than Guilty Crown. The trick is not messing those up.
Also sounds horrible. Let's just not have bets!
But the more I think about it, the less sense it makes. It's totally contrived and illogical. For example, I'm watching [x] shows which I think will be good. I select one or more which I really believe in. And... then what? I'm certainly not going to watch any show I don't care for, so why would I vote for those? I don't get it!
Moe Giants.
How many cours is Titan?
Make up better rules!

These thread titles are getting increasingly obtuse.
One shining star in the night shining brighter than all the other ones, and I'm talking light years away.
Well...
Did we really ruin your fun though? If you make a bad product and people respond negatively is that really the consumers' fault? IS IT?! lol.
In all seriousness, it's too confusing and risky for me to do that kind of ban bet.
Clearly you don't spend enough time in the thread, or you'd get all the super cool insider jokes.
not a fan of cg and/or mecha I see.
gg on the comprehension skills
I wasn't being serious. Sorry.

I don't want to be an "insider" of this place.

Then you cannot complain, sir!

I don't wholly disagree.
