I'm arguing against his point. He was calling for additional playlists and put down what I interpreted at the time to be two random gametypes. You, however, actually made the point intended.
*chuckle* and I never agreed with the multiple playlist idea... because I don't.
Perhaps I wasn't clear. His intention of referencing the two voting options was to show that the voting options were "unfair." While you both offered differing solutions to such, you actually made the intended point of presenting a solution that would work, while his solution does not.

Any "Vanilla shouldn't even be in matchmaking" clause was used in qualifying my argument that TU is the best focus choice for matchmaking.
Well, that falls under opinion and should never have been used as an arguement. Nothing against opinion, because the point of view B and I are arguing is based on our point of view. However a flat statement which has the feel of something presented as fact and being unyielding about it.
It is a fact that 85% is more consistent and, based on studies like this one, functions better than the original 100%. Changes like allowing Armor Lock to be "damaged," bleedthrough on the headshot (melee is the controversial issue at the moment) and elimination of Sword Block all benefit the game (Armor Lock can now be countered to an extent, while it still achieved its purpose, bleedthrough allows team shooting to be more effective and promotes making headshots, and the ridding Sword Block helps make the Sword more effective and not completely overshadowed by the Shotgun).
It is, therefore, superior to what Reach was, and, while certain tweaks must surely be made, Reach is now better off as a result and these changes should be the focus of gameplay options.
the numbers may calculate it to be better, but the players are not limited to hard numbers. It all comes down to what is liked. There are those that hail the TU as the savior of gameplay. A valid point of view. There are those that prefer Vanilla. For some reason, the changes make these people worse. BTW, I'm not talking about those that exploited the system either. There are also those that really don't care because the TU doesn't affect the way they play (I'm in this group btw). The thing is, there is no way to tell how many belong to each group.
Therefore, it is your OPINION that it is better. Yes, the numbers say it, but it FEELS better. It is other's OPINION that it is worse, because even though the number say it's better, it FEELS worse.
