  • that's kind of a random date


    tuesday?



    is there an event on


    fridays?

    Your fate is always at your heels. That bleeding feeling when you run into the night from it, it will remain. On your endless run from that one thing that you know will catch up.


    You will be delivered.



    Peace

  • na, grinder had special job to do in the summer months. but now enough


    time to organise the next tournaments. :)



    edit: oh, just checked the battle and


    events section - the CF tournament thread isnt there anymore :(.

    I don't fear anything.

  • So Don, to answer your question directly, "No".


    Having that event too early for


    north americans makes it really just a BG vanity thingie...


    Oh well enjoy it anyway


    guys.

  • Well Jib why dont u organise a tournament then?
    cant


    see a prob myself really ,you can have winners of each tournament fight each other.
    so


    stop moaning and do it:)


  • nono Jib or


    whoever, makes the rules, as I have no idea what CF is like right now.
    You guys figure


    out the best way to show skill (using batts and bots shows skill in my book) and I do the


    organising.


    As organiser, I'll obviously arrange the most exciting fights for the


    very end of the tournament >_>

  • i can give u rules. what u want? gunfight, which show u how good a


    player can aim and flight at the same time?or with every equip? and no, bats and bots on CF


    shows no skill. the hull and shields are too strong for this. 1 fight will last more than 30


    mins with bats and bots.

    I don't fear anything.

  • Actually Don, I believe you DO know what


    CF is about right now.

    It's just a game, and it will always remain a game

  • Yesyes, I forgot, I know everything *g*



    I didn't know if bots and bats would be


    overpowered. If this was vanilla FL, then bots and batts would be needed.



    I need,


    eh rules that show the best skills in all areas

  • Ok, here rules:
    ===========
    1.) Place: Arena. The 2 fighters


    start at 2k distance.
    2.) The referee makes sure that both fighers are rdy. Both fighters


    type rdy when they are ready.
    3.) The referee counts from 5 to 0 (=go) and the fighters


    start to fight.
    4.) All weapons are allowed, no bats, no bots.
    5.) The 2 fighters


    fight 3 rounds and till there are a difference of 2 wins. (3wins vs 1 win = we have a


    winner, 3:2 - they have to fight till 4:2 or something else)
    6.) Each fighter faces 2


    opponents in the tournament. This means if he lost against 1, he has a second chance.
    7.)


    If a fighter lost 2 fights he is out of the tournament.

    I don't fear anything.

  • That's a double elimination kind of thing, which will


    allow people to get lucky. Lucky in the way of lucky wins and lucky in the way of facing


    opponents they know and can beat easily.


    In vanilla FL, it is very much possible


    for:
    Albert to beat Bono
    Bono to beat Chriss
    and Chriss to beat Albert again.



    So it's not possible to determine a real tournament winner by using any type of


    elimination or brackets system.


    I would suggest letting everyone fight everyone in a


    swiss or round-robin type of tournament.
    That way, nobody can get lucky and the real


    skill will show!

  • Make it at least 3k distance.

    It's just a game, and it will always remain a game

  • You can mix 2 tournament types to make


    one.


    First you hold a group-tournament. Groups consist of 4 or 5 fighters are formed,


    each will fight to each other in that group. Best of 3, all 3 battles needs to be fought.


    The winner gets 1 point for winning an engagement, and the battlescore (3-0, 2-1) is also


    recorded.


    After the group-phase the best nr 1 and 2 of every group will be picked.


    First decider is the points, secondly the won battles. If that is still the same for nr 2


    and 3, the person who won the engagement between nr 2 and 3 in the groupphase will go


    through to the next round.


    In the next round there will be an two-strikes-out


    tournament. In the eightsfinal the nr's 1 will fight with the nr's 2 of the different


    groups (nr 1 of group 1 will face nr 2 of group 2, nr 1 of group 2 will face nr 2 of group


    3, nr 1 of group 3 will face nr 2 of group 4, nr 1 of group 4 will face nr 2 of group 1).


    Again a best of 3. The 4 winners will fight each other again in the quaterfinal, also best


    of 3 till we reach the semi final 1. There will be a best of 5 between the 2 fighters who


    placed directly.
    On the same time there will be a second group - the fighters who lost


    the battles after the group-phase - who will give the second finalist. Fighters who lost the


    eightsfinal will fight each other to give 2 winners, who will face the 2 fighters who lost


    the quaterfinals (best of 3). The 2 who survives that will face each other to give the


    winner of the second-strike-group (best of 5). That fighter will play in the second


    semi-final against the fighter who lost the first semi-final (best of 5), and the winner


    will face the direct-placed fighter in the final, best of 7.
