During the time TOC was on, Zing79 had planned the tournament perfectly. His rules made alot of sense and his setup did as well. At that time the game was only 3 months old. So alot of people were still joining the game and when they saw the word *tournaments* they were excited.. everyone would talk about it in the chat.. Zing79 used to send emails to tell you your next match.. and if both opponents didnt show up.. He would make the best rank fighter advance..
Yeah, we are following what Zing did that made this tournament so great, through memory and through old topics. Although these players might not be as wise as the past players, that doesn't mean we will fail, and we will be constantly sending e-mails to every player in the tournament, about their match-ups, info and everything.

Sad to say Tarkan but people are mainly joining your tournament because they got respect for you... they arent really looking forward for this tourney or any tourney. And also the people who do play the game right now have been playin for like the past 6-7 months.. If you check out the chat its always full cause all they do is CHAT..
They aren't playing this because of me, this isn't 2 years ago. Many of the players here haven't heard of me before, unless they look at the rank archive or join the forum. And we will make sure they look forward for this tournament. Again, this might not be the golden days, but that doesn't mean we should quit while we're still going.

so mainly im trying to say is without the fire in peoples eyes to win the tournaments.. then this contest will really do no good.. look at npt.. its taking them forever to finish there first round.. ZING79 made it only one week to finish your round or your out... and people would actually fight in that one week... so let see how fast your tourney is going to end...
Each tournament round is 3 days, and no exceptions, if they don't fight, then it's good bye. Yes, they might not have the fire as before, but with good organization, we can make this tournament great. NPT wasn't well organized (although there were many rules there), NPT was just too rigid and thrown in the air, we are trying to make things so that everything is flexible and in line.

You forget, I dont want the prize. I just want to fight, and see if my strategy is more powerful than skill. I dont even want the prize. I just want to be in a tournament. There are a few that are joining for similar reasons, and am happy.
We need more people like you, if you made up the majority of SFO, then this place wouldn't be as bad as it is. but, if you win the tournament and you don't want the prize, then that is fine, we won't give the prize to you.

Ok, now I am really gonna finish my HUGE list today. Should I give it to someone like you or Tarkan, or should I post it on the forum like I planned? I havent been playing SFO for 2 days for this, so I hope it is worth it. If you cant respond in time, I will just post it on the forum. So everyone can see.
Private Message your idea to me, I might be able to critique it, thanks.
