Hello everyone, this is the first instance where the new rule introduction system described on this thread will be used. Today, I wanted to ask for your opinions on a modified version of Rule 24 (the changes have been highlighted in bold) and a new Guideline regarding the minimum length of Results sections.


 * Rule 24:** Large scale battles can only have up to a certain number of combatants:
 * Verse VS Verse and Combatant VS Verse fights can have up to 12 combatants for each Verse.
 * **If you plan on doing a fight with multiple Verses, you can include a maximum of 5 Verses which would mean you could include a maximum number of 60 combatants in total.**
 * **For those wondering, an army or group can be inserted in the place of an individual combatant in order to make the battle more interesting .**
 * No Battle Royales with over 12 combatants are allowed even if multiple users are working on it.
 * Team VS Team and Combatant VS Team fights can have up to 12 combatants for each team.
 * However if the combatants involved with any of the previously mentioned fight types only have 3 or 4 basic abilities (e.g the Animatronics or the Minecraft Mobs) then said fight can have up to 20 combatants per team. **If you were doing a five-way Verse VS Verse Fight this means you could include a maximum 100 combatants in said fight.**
 * If any of said fight types is found to have over 12 combatants per team/**over 60 combatants in total**, (or 20 combatants per team/**100 combatants in total**) and over 12 combatants in the case of Battle Royales, the author will be given a week to reduce the number of combatants in their battle, otherwise the page will be deleted'''.

Here is the proposed new Guideline.


 * Guideline 5: ** While it is recommended that your Results sections are at least **100 words long** so you can effectively explain your your verdict, **this is not compulsory** as some battles may not require a lot of explanation for their outcomes (e.g. one-sided battles).

Do you think the modified version of Rule 24 and/or the proposed Guideline should be added to the Rules and Guidelines page?

Just to clarify, unlike previous community polls, the results of these polls (and the majority of future community polls) will not have a deadline for users to cast their vote by. Instead, the votes will simply be collected once the majority of the community has voted.
