Sign up for 1 on 1 tourney here!

Ok, I have been thinking about this a little bit more. I think for starters we will go with a 32 player format. Two brackets of 16 players in each. Assuming we can get that many players that is.

The players in each brackets opponents will be drawn at total randomness. Either using the hat method or using as Geo suggested the random number generation. Either way it would be totally random so that no bickering would take place about being put against an unfair opponent. Which really there isn't such thing as unfair, with a game like this anyone can win against anyone.

The map issue I think for each round we will have one map. For the first round with all 32 players we will have a map, then when everyone moves onto the next round of 16, we will use another map. This would be in the best interest for the players in each round so that a person in bracket 1, round 1, does not get a better map then a person in bracket 2, round 1.

A possiblity for game setup is for the two players in the game to decide on settings. In other words if the two wanted full tech start they could do so, as long as both parties are ok with it. Same goes for Intel, or starting planets, or planet value, etc. Or would this create some problems? I'm thinking it's possible that it would create some problems but it's just a possibility that I thought up.

Anyways, so if you want in on this tourney, sign up here. It will take a couple weeks or more I'm sure to get everyone that wants in signed up. If we have trouble getting 32 players we will either go down to a 16 player format. If we are somewhere in between those numbers, well, we will figure something out.

Ragnarok, you might want to change the topic to something like "Sign up for new tournament". I would join but I am already in two other tournaments.

Since it is December and a lot of people get really busy with stuff, I would think it might be better to set up the tournament for 16 players.

Hmmm, good call. I was thinking it would be tough to get 32 players anyways. Plus with holidays I doubt many people want to start a tourney just before them.

Hmmm, how do I do that? I can't seem to find a button to change the topic.
