I would say this is a scheme idea, but I don't play for a long time (maybe it is a famous game already). And I don't want to be the annoying one (and the only one) to complain that this should be in Scheme ideas... Interesting idea by the way... --FoxHound 08:03, 17 October 2013 (CEST)
Abnormal has had a season of TUS Rotated League dedicated to it, at least a couple of cups, several tournaments in and outside the Worm Olympics, and is pending inclusion in HostingBuddy. If I search my #AnythingGoes log for its name, I get around 50 hits within the past week, not to mention the idea itself is actually pretty old, it just hadn't really been popularised until this year. It's legit, I don't think any action is necessary here! --KoreanRedDragon 08:31, 17 October 2013 (CEST)
So, I feel happy. The scheme is in the right place. Sorry my ignorance (long time I don't play), I wouldn't like the scheme in Scheme ideas if it is already famous. And thank you very much for the comment, it's always nice to receive answers instead of being ignored on the talk pages. --FoxHound 06:26, 18 October 2013 (CEST)
I doubt Intermediate can be a parent article for Abnormal
Despite how the scheme bases itself on Intermediate weapon settings, I doubt similarities between both schemes are enough for the Intermediate article to be a parent article for this article. Main weapons used are quite different (Kamikaze is the most notable example of a widely-used weapon in Abnormal but not in Intermediate; conversely, weapons like Bazooka or Baseball Bat are to be avoided in most circumstances in Abnormal but not in Intermediate). --LeTotalKiller 23:39, 25 November 2013 (CET)
