View Full Version : Weekly mini tournaments - just an idea


04-17-2002, 03:32 PM
I think we should have small weekly tournaments, maybe on the weekends, and the winner will recieve a prize of 1000 pts? what do you guys think?

I like it

04-17-2002, 04:41 PM
plus. this would allow those arrogant bastards with high ranks to ACUTALLY fight other people.

good idea.... but it's doubtful that it'll be done.

I agree with you guys it'd realy rock to have a weekly tournament but 1000 point prize? Maybe 200 or how about three different places 1st 200 2nd 100 and 3rd 50. What do you guys think? By the way wasn't this thread also in the Challanges and Tournaments section.?

04-17-2002, 06:32 PM
you're right. since this is a weekly thing, the prize money should be something like 500 for 1st, 400 for 2nd, 300 for 3rd. All we need is tmyapp's approvel and a new mod that will take on this task.

i dont know about "points"... but we can give them a banner, and maybe the Red Sentinel to use ?? (or some other special helper ??)

but... i can't touch this with a 2 foot pointy stick (just no time) .. if someone else wants to get down and dirty and get this organized (i'd need to see a "plan" ahead of time) i dont see why we can't do this (it be less than 1 hour of coding for me as LONG as the scores/tracking/organizing is done by someone ELSE) :biggrin:

Ok I guess that could work. I could set up like the times and stuff ad veratizeing it on the forum etc. But as for the scores and tracking part I'd need at least 4 other people:(. But it good with me as long as I get to compete too;). Hey I'm sorry but I just can't pass up a good fight! Special helper hmmm... How about Karin? Heh heh.

Ok, 3rd year soft engo here speakin, but I woldn't mind "getting me hands dirty" with planning - maybe even some programming (if tmyapp is feeling in the mood to delegate?? to help organise this!

Plus, it would be nice, for those of us who play once or twixe every couple a days to get some points going!

What the deal? What do you need? Tmyapp, I'm all ears!
(Well, some fingers, a heart, and assorted other components too!

i dont care about the ranking, but if i put myself in the situation of those who do, and i think its a great idea for them ! just for the fun i would probably participate !

anyway great idea !

ZeroEna
04-18-2002, 07:12 PM
Then its settled! all I need is some help and TMy's go ahead and were all set!:):):)

If no one cares, I could have the weekly tournaments, and TMyApp if you've read Mine and Lordcyris's Tournament, then you saw how I can handle stuff...

But upto you man...

04-18-2002, 11:09 PM
WOW! It sounds like this could really happend? i mean, i dont see why not? With all these people who are willing to help and all, we can have ourselves a little tourny in no time. hmm.. but i'm still stuck on the prize. Whats better: points, or a banner and a cool helper for that week(imguessing).

04-18-2002, 11:41 PM
In the Tournament section of this form. Troy88 mentioned good reasons for having a weekly mini tournaments. one is getting rid of noobie killers being on top, and the second is having a good challenge. Seeing whos the best at THAT moment..

If you have ever been in the top 3 like myself. You will know how hard it is to keep that rank. The only people that you can fight are the other 2 that is above you, but odds are you, You will hardly ever see them. let alone fight them. So all the while you are stuck having to fight noobies. Basically, you have to play EVERY SINGLE DAY and fight endless amounts of noobies to hold your position, while people who are like ranked 100 can shoot up to rank 5 or something with just 3 fights.
Also, this gives people who dont or can't play everyday because of school or a job. but have true skills. an opprotunity to gain fast points. instead of working his way up by fighting noobies.

And another thing... this would be a GREAT BREAK from the day to day fights. I mean, you come in the room and challenge theh same people over and over again and you would either wins some or lose some matches. but these matches dont hold any kind of weight.. i mean a lost would just mean 10pts,and you would just ask the guy for the rematch - nothing really significant.But a lost in a tournament is different. I remember being in the last tournament and losing a match, i almost felt like crying. and man, that match seemed like the most IMPORTNANT thing in my life at that moment.I got such a high.. i want that feeling again.

BTW. this post will be in the tournament section as well.

Ok, I got a good idea, but some of you might not agree...

Lets not make the tourney "Weeklys", Lets make them "Monthlys or 2-3 weeks" Because:

1) It would be very organized and we won't have to worry about "people bitching" every week.
and
2) It wouldn't be a pain in the ass for TMyApp to give out a banner and helper or Pts. to people every week. (If there's a new winner each week)

So, If you arrange either one of those things, Id be very happy to take all the controls of this and would do this all alone...

(And one other great thing, I won't be in them, Ill just be the dude that takes cares of it... (Well I might join a few :biggrin:) )

SO, does anyone like the idea or changing it to 2-3 Weeks or monthlys? And me hosting them?
Yes/No?

prize should be points and can have the special helper for a week :biggrin:

ZeroEna
04-19-2002, 08:32 PM
Two weeks would probobly be better for us and for TMy two weeks isn't too long to wait and it wouldn't be that big a burden on TMy.:) But I still say a point less tournament would be better because if people don't play that often their rank won't go down from losing or not to lose points for loseing in a tournament. But in all serious ness I think Huyato (did I spell his name right?) would make the best helper even if he wasn't in the original game. And ####### if you do become in charge can I help? Either way we still need the big bosses O.K.
Man I'm geting phyched! :biggrin:

[I] To those with dreams let them fly high.

Another thing that i should mention about this tourny is the matches. since it will be a mini one. as opposed to the offical tournament, where its 2 out of 3. the mini tournament should just be 1 quick game or 1 tag match. and who ever wins. goes to the next stage.

asshole
04-19-2002, 09:37 PM
Well, I allready had that as an Idea...

(I allready made up the plans...) :biggrin:

So:
Yes, I should host them?
or
No, I shouldn't?

And Zeroena, sure you can help, if im falling behind, but you MUSN'T(did I spell it right?) join the tourney then...

ZeroEna
04-19-2002, 10:21 PM
Hmm.... I'll have to think it over then, if you do need my help then send me a message. It's like I said before I just can't pass up a good fight! :biggrin:

04-19-2002, 11:46 PM
You all (besides ZeroEna) aren't helping...

And ZeroEna, that's how I planned one of the rules, the Host can't play. (Well maybe 1 outta 3 he/she can).

But wouldn't this "mini weekly tourney" interfere with the WT(weekly tourneys)? ???

since this is an old topic, I believe the "mini weekly tourney" IS the WTs.

and just to let you all know, the WTs(Weekly Tournaments) shall be returning soon.

so keep checking in the challanges and tournaments section

yeah if anyone needs help organizing or doing anything i could help with just ask me. i would be happy to help. also i like the idea if u win 1st-2oo pts. 2nd-1oo pts. 3rd-50pts. this would work out great and make the better ranked ppl fight others.
