New Tournament??
« on: March 29, 2011, 11:22:11 PM »
I'm thinking of hosting a new tournament, but I'm having trouble deciding what kind of tournament would be popular with folks. Please give me some idea as to what you folks would like to play.

After two weeks of this poll, I'll consider hosting the chosen tourney (EDIT: probably starting the first week of May).

So what'll it be?

Also, if you choose Other, please elaborate.

I really don't care what it is, as long as there's an organized timeline of due dates and such.

I say wait until one or all other tournaments are done so people don't run between them like chickens with their heads cut off.

rtist, the LAST thing we need is another tournament - All they do is tell us who NOT to play with on certain modes unless we want our arses kicked. The game was meant for FUN, not "OMFG H00 1S D4 BESTEST @ 33CH GAYM M00D LOLOMGWTFBBQROFLMAOWAT"

So really...no offense, but...I don't think we need another tourney for a LOOOOOOOOOOOOONG while.

I promise you there will be a timeline, though I will be open to exceptions is the case a player can't make the dates given. It has to be a fairly good reason, though.

The general timeline will be something like a game a week or so.

I'm suggesting this as more of a test of V1D, not necessarily to see who's the best, per se.

I really hate it when people immediately think that tournaments are always super serious, extremely competitive stuff for deciding who is the very best. That's like saying all Apples are red.


Anyways, I don't think we need another tournament right now. Give the community a little break. We had like 4 in a row now, and a couple of them aren't even finished!

OTHER:  Something that would require a large amount of bored people and coordination, but would be really awesome.

Assemble 16 teams of 5 (or a lower number, just so it'll be easier) and have a 4-Team LMS or CTF.

4-Way CTF would be a little too hectic.

4-team 1 flag CTF sounds like the most awesome thing in the history of awesomeness ever. I'd love to see 8 teams of 3 (or 16 teams ;) ) playing in a no holds barred free for all fragfest over a single flag.
As for having another tournament right now.....
You yourself are still in one...
And a good chunk of other players are stuck playing another tournament.
Not saying it's a bad thing to have tournaments, but now is not the right time. Wait until May Rtist, since we don't have many available players right now and we are still trying to sort out two other tournaments at the same time. But if you ever need a cool little 4-team bracket, you know who to call.  :cool:
