The Arcadion abbreviations - R vs M

[Jeeqbit]

One thing that people have wrong about "M" is that it literally can reset.

They forget that In Competitive games, they don't necessarily count 1-12 between fights with different competitors.

This is a non-issue.

Coils was T1-T4 for each tier, but the community just called it T1-T13.

Alex didn't have such a number classification so it was based on the boss name.

Omega had V1-V4 and it reset for each tier. But the community still did O1-O12.

Eden had no number classification so it was based on boss name as well.

Pandaemonium went from 1st to 12th Circle but the first letter of the raid names (A) was taken and we didn't think of C1-C12, so it ended up as P1-P12, since it was clear the entire raid concept was called Pandaemonium.

In Arcadion's case, the raid concept begins with A which is obviously taken. It's still a non-issue. They will most likely do M1-M4 for each tier but we'll still call it M1-M12.

Its M. R makes no sense.

m is for match? didnt know that. in german its called 'runde 1-4' which means lap... or round

GAMERS there seems to be two competing camps vying for control over this raid series's abbreviations, namely those who would name the raids along the lines of R1N/R1S, and those who would name them M1N/M1S. This is a very decisive and important issue and I wish to know where we stand on it
Personally I am Team R for several reasons
1. Makes sense for the name, R is pretty easy to associate with "Arcadion" and M is nowhere in the title at all
2. It fits the wrestling theme, Round 1, R1, etc

Had M not been used at the end I would've said L = Lightweight M = Mediumweight and H = Heavyweight would've been better :P Although moving forward it wouldn't make sense for potential raid abbreviations later.

proof that gamers will literally argue over anything...

[CaptainLagbeard]

M is in the name

It would be A if Alexander didn't exist.

Ar would've probably been the next best, but M is shorter.

[TaleraRistain]

Everyone's using M and even if they next set of fights are M1 to M4 again, they'll be M5 to M8.

[Shikiseki]

I kinda like to refer to it as AAC when talking about the raid itself but the M1-12 will probably be the way to go
Still it feels bit off that M has nothing to do with Archadion lol but Match 1-12 still makes sense in a way

[ACE135]

That's how it is in German. I guess the next tier would also be R1 to R4. How is it in French and Japanese?

[Jeeqbit]

Can blame the English translation for that tbh, because it's M in the English version.
