Perhaps a pastebin link would be better.

Guess this means i have a unique team, i'm guessing that's a bad thing.

It's actually a good thing because it's easier to get the top team of the week bonus.

Seems like a fairly mediocre season. Hedging my bets on the shota ecchi show to do just as well as Shimoneta this season. Of the 3 LN adaptations that looked exactly the same, Taimadou 35 seemed the weakest based on PTW numbers. I hope I made the right call.

And like many others, I'm fairly surprised at how many picked Owarimonogatari. The tears when it ends up with a mid-table finish will be delicious.

Submitted my team with Owarimonogatari first, but removed it later. Now that I see that it is the most chosen I'm kind of regretting my actions.

I guess like always I will go with the flow one more time...

I think the Asterisk War pickers will be the ones shedding tears :P

No Asterisk will be less hyped version of Date A Live. Look at the amount of advertisement it get before it even air.
Kickstarter for Rokujouma is fully funded. Good work everyone. Lets wait for the result of our hard work together.

That's exactly why I expect it to bomb, all the marketing push was targeted towards the west, indicating lack of faith it would do much in Japan. I expect it to rack up points in the first 3 weeks, then get sour with low ratings and many drops.

Isn't that majority of the competition? *nervous laughter*, my bench anime are pretty terrible...

I'm taking a gamble on Comet Lucifer hoping it won't be too bad. Ah...this is my first FAL but the anime spread is not very good...

And there's is good reason behind it. Another is massive in the MAL community, but totally bombed in Japajn. Sankarea won FAL Spring 2012, but have a very mediocre BD sales game.

On the other hand, Girls und Panzer performed so well in Japan that they couldn't prind enough BDs to meet supply, but it was mostly overlooked in the western community, putting in an extremely average FAL performance.

Japanese popularity means pretty much nothing for FAL.

I always had a unique team for FAL but this is the first time i am surprised about having a unique team.
I had a hard time picking a team.

And seeing the collection of anime this time i was pretty sure someone else would have the same team as me.
Unique teams are a good thing, you don't have to share the first place.
Or the last place...

This is the first time I've tried this and I've got a unique team; I guess time will tell if I picked well or not.
Kind of more focused on what I think will be popular rather than what I think will deserve to be popular based on how good it is; I'm definitely nervous as that's what I based my picks on haha

Yeah you're probably right...I just felt a bit weird picking certain choices I had zero interest in personally.

That's the biggest newbie hurdle imo. You'll get used to it.

Wow, never expected to get a unique team for my 2nd FAL since there's lots who had the same team as me in my first FAL. I'm just picking teams mostly based on PTWs and personal interests this time so I hope the end result won't be too bad. :P

Mostly good, only thing good about sharing a team is that you might end up ranked with someone else so when someone nukes you you might avoid it, good things about having a unique team is stuff like getting the unique team bonus easier (since you're likely never going to be sharing a ranking then) and not being tied to your benches in case you make it first with other people. I guess the people saying it's a bad thing here is mostly because they think they'll do worse because they didn't pick the same team as everyone else, i.e. they chose wrong.

Subete seems to be racking members quite decently, it seems it was a good decision to put it in benched, actually I should have probably put it in my main team.

Thanks for the info. It's my first time playing this game and I'm actually kinda nervous. I think I made a good team. let's see what happens at the end of the season.

A unique team, you say? I suppose thats not bad. All but one of my choices are pretty high on the board though, so I'm surprised that my team still ended up with unique status...
