ReBoot

yeah, seriously. I personally support Arrival right now, but that doesn't mean I don't want to see the other teams give it their all. I really want to see what they have to offer, I want to see them really try to win. Not just 2.0 either-- the other teams are practically dead and that's a real disappointment to me. CONVINCE ME!!! Win me over!! At least try...
I think when you're given an opportunity like this you should really give it your best effort and I'm just not feeling it. Where's the pride?

Endian: Hear hear! We called for stripper binomes with pom-poms, and spam it, that's what we oughta get!

Okay, obscure reference to some, but truly, I wanted to see fireworks from the teams, not just fans. Seeing all the ReBoot fans smashing into each other's posts at top speed is, admittedly, every entertaining and fun to try, but at the same time...didn't we come here to be entertained more by various pitches? I was ruling out options with very little editting going on within even the first week. My top three were never ruled out by the other two for even a moment. O_O

Get your clout back, guys!

If ReBoot, as the title suggests, is revived, then it's anything but an "utter failure".

I'd say the Reboot@Z2H experiment is a failure.

Rainmaker set the teams off in the wrong direction so a lot of effort was put into bringing the two stories that could be salvaged back in line with what existing fans wanted. That shift has obviously killed 3 of the 5 pitches, which is enough in my opinion to deem it a failure. After that derailing first week, the combination of of absentee teams (4 of the 5!) and having less than a month anyway has made this, let's say, a learning experience.

Don't do it this way again, is the lesson to be learned.
