Moderator: Tournament Directors
I like the premise, but with the maps being random, there is a good chance that this could take over a year (which is the designated time frame to try to finish tournaments in. Is there any way you could send more than one designated map per week?blakebowling wrote:Each week will also feature one map. Each player will be randomly assigned to a game on that map (for those you will receive invites). The settings distribution will be the same as above, with the exception of map and number of players (if necessary).

Here's the issue, people will have a hard time getting over 200 maps in a year when it's random and they for sure only have a shot at a new one once a week. That's a 4 year tournament, if someone wins all designated games. Anyway, the tournament looks fine other than the time frame.
I just realized the amount of time it would take while reading over it myself. So I've changed it to the most maps in 10 weeks (possibly 16, I'm not absolutely sure).deantursx wrote:If I'm understanding this right, I think this might be a little overambitious.

10 and 16 are both fine. Just decide now and you can go with either of those. The tournament is in the database now.blakebowling wrote:chapcrap wrote:I like the premise, but with the maps being random, there is a good chance that this could take over a year (which is the designated time frame to try to finish tournaments in.

Blake changed my mind in LC. So I'm back in.chapcrap wrote:He opted out.cooldeals wrote:It sounds interesting, but I just realized this will definitely go over the holidays and will have to wait for the next one.
And 16 sounds great. Four months will work out great.
