Gben 20 Posted February 26, 2008 BO3 - back to back is a given, but BO3 eliminates the lucky win, or the cheap tactic that gets you unprepared the first time. Fool me once... etc It's also gives me at least 1 extra game in the tourney than I would have before... LOL! Share this post Link to post
TheBlackOut 7 Posted February 26, 2008 Pff fine, w/e. Where's Alphabear been anyways? Share this post Link to post
Gben 20 Posted February 27, 2008 This thread was started on 5th November 2007!!! (If this tourny goes on too longer, I may have to get my grandchildren to take over the family business!!!) Share this post Link to post
Luk3us 63 Posted February 27, 2008 I know, we really should have set up some time limits to FORCE people to get matches done. Share this post Link to post
TheBlackOut 7 Posted February 27, 2008 I know, we really should have set up some time limits to FORCE people to get matches done. How about next time we do elimination but with BO3. Share this post Link to post
Luk3us 63 Posted February 28, 2008 (edited) That would work nicely. Assuming we ever do this again. I assume Gben you have PMed Alphabear? Edited February 28, 2008 by Luk3us Share this post Link to post
Gben 20 Posted February 29, 2008 Well if we're doing this for social reasons then I prefer round robin with 1 week timelimit per round, with some sort of criteria to determine point scoring for no shows or schedule issues. But if we want cutthroat rankings then BO3 elimination is okay too. I think the elimination style will lead better to multiple tournaments, rather than this EPIC decade spanning tournament that we have going on right now! I'd be happy with either approach, but prefer Round Robin, otherwise I faced Lukus in first round and then never got to play inferno!!! Share this post Link to post
TheBlackOut 7 Posted February 29, 2008 Nope I hate Round Robin, never again. Share this post Link to post
Gben 20 Posted March 1, 2008 I assume Gben you have PMed Alphabear? Huh? It's TBO v Alphabear this round... then me v crdgohan in 5th round then bye to end off so I can rest and work through any niggling injuries before the money rounds!!! If possible, we should try to schedule the top 4 to have a 2on2 game or more for fun. Share this post Link to post
TheBlackOut 7 Posted March 1, 2008 If possible, we should try to schedule the top 4 to have a 2on2 game or more for fun. You can do that but it won't be recognized ranking-wise. ever thought about a free-for-all? No and still ain't. FFA don't work for a tournament. Name me one tournament that used a ffa successfully and I might take a look into it. Share this post Link to post
Luk3us 63 Posted March 2, 2008 (edited) A FFA tournament you mean? lol... That would be funny tbh and fun. Huh? It's TBO v Alphabear this round... then me v crdgohan in 5th round then bye to end off so I can rest and work through any niggling injuries before the money rounds!!! lol.. I fail at reading.

TheBlackOut 7 Posted March 2, 2008 Nope have not pm'd him. I usually see him around on xfire and stuff, but he hasn't been around so I just don't feel like a PM would wake him up anyways. Share this post Link to post
Gben 20 Posted March 2, 2008 I think you misunderstood - the 2on2 and FFA would be post tourney. But considering how long we take with the rourney any 2on2 would be considered unranked games for sure. Share this post Link to post
Luk3us 63 Posted March 2, 2008 (edited) Eh, I'm up for a FFA at any time! As long as no one gangs up on me. I hate that about FFAs sometimes, you launch one attack and then everyone is attacking you. And no Brutal Comps either, last time me and Gben did that, I had a bad experience. Actually for a 2v2, we could match it up, that Number 1 goes with Number 6, and Number 2 with Number 5 and so on, so its reasonably fair. Edited March 2, 2008 by Luk3us Share this post Link to post

Gben 20 Posted March 2, 2008 Luk3us when you to 6 players, I think the logistics of getting us all together at the same time is going to be just a *bit* difficult! But more the merrier otherwise. I was thinking maybe we could do regional comps... Aust v NZ ... ANZACS v USA.... South v North Hemispheres etc. BTW... Luk3us bad experience = gben winning! Share this post Link to post
Luk3us 63 Posted March 3, 2008 (edited) It would only be 4 people at a time, as in a 2v2. As for a FFA, I think 4 would be better than 6, but eh. Also, I demand a rematch! Edited March 3, 2008 by Luk3us Share this post Link to post
Luk3us 63 Posted March 5, 2008 Where is the Alphabear when you need him? Share this post Link to post
Alphabear 11 Posted March 6, 2008 Right here. Sorry guys i have been incredibly busy of late. I have been doing my best to come here whenever i have time, but that usually only amounts to checking a few news posts then im off again. I will do better though Share this post Link to post
Luk3us 63 Posted March 10, 2008 Hopefully we can have this tourny done BEFORE KW is released? Share this post Link to post
sith_wampa 6 Posted March 11, 2008 Hurr!!! <gla>I am prepared to die!!</gla> BEFORE KW PLZ Share this post Link to post
Gben 20 Posted March 11, 2008 I was thinking that perhaps this weekend should be the deadline for Alphabear's matchup? And if he can't make - declare it as a forfeit and move on. Share this post Link to post
