Post subject: Tournament ideas wanted Reply with quote

After the success of last weekend's 2p Tournament I think it important we work hard on regular tournaments and if possible introduce new idea's.

Now unfortunately, due to server issues around certain areas of admin work required in checking past games. It is therefore NOT possible for ANY kind of unrated games for points unless they take place via a tourney setting at a set time and date.

Also other reasons include work load for moderators and in the past sadly unrated games for points ended up causing arguments and upset when they had to be removed. So we cannot go down this route again.

So please post any ideas of which can be held in a Tournament setting as below:

1) Set time and date for all players entered

2) There can be no huge bonus points issued by the game. Small bonuses are allowed.

That's it basically, so get ya thinking caps on folks Smile

hmm that was my first tourney last time out hehe.As far as new ideas r considered 1st is why we play unrated games in tourney.i think it will be much better if we play rated games on tourney and the tourney fees that 5000k last time should be cancelled.by this even someone wins one match also gets sm points and one who goes out first round also dont loose many points too.i do not know if anyone will agree with me but thats my view. Rolling Eyes Rolling Eyes Rolling Eyes And as far as touney time i think 1 tourney each month is good.And something like a special tourney in smwat six month with greater prize(points) Very Happy Very Happy

Rated game tourney I don't think would be possible because the matching system joins players from wherever they are be it the lobby or a room. So if games were rated, players in the lobby awaiting normal games could end up in the tourney game.

A tourney every week also I think wouldn't be possible as mods need a life too. But, I think 2 a month sometimes is something more feasible.

One thing to bare in mind though, the more frequent the tourneys, the less bonus points can be given off the system per tourney, BUT the more users who enter each one the higher the prizes are.

I did have a thought...of maybe a tourney using all player number games. Kind of a challenge of all challenges.
But this would require enough players registered for 5 player games at the start.

So say 10 players registered

Round 1 - 2 x 5 player games (player who gets 5th is out of each)

Round 2 - 2 x 4 player games (Player who gets 4th is out of each)

Round 3 - 2 x 3 player games (player in 3rd is out of each)

Round 4 - 2 x 2 player games

Then the two who lose play each other to get 3rd place (maybe 4th)

Then the two winners play each other to get 1st and 2nd place

But this would be rather a marathon tourney LOL with 5 games played by each

Merc as you have been told many times unrated games for points will not be returning. Please do not keep asking.

Thank you

I also think a variety tournament/gauntlet would be an interesting challenge. Such as first round= all 2 player games, second round= all 4/5 games, final round= 3 player game or something similar. Idea
