Dueling tournament! =D

Okay, i just got Permission from Buzz to hold a dueling tournament.

So, heres how it would work, if anyone would be interested in it.
First, it would last a week, Starting when i think we have enough duelers and judges. The duels can be held whenever two duelers want, but they need a judge to report the duel here (Click the d00ling ladder link.)

You can only duel the same person once every day though. I think new duelers and judges will still be allowed to join the game during this week.

Each time you win, you are granted two points, and when you lose, one point. So you can get a good place in the ladder even when always losing, as long as you duel alot.
To become a dueler or a judge, just PM me on www.takaru.net, e-mail me at TakaruKun@Gmail.com or contact me on mIRC, i'm pretty much always on our channel.
I also recomend you read the rules, which are on www.takaru.net. Even though i think said everything here which is there, i might have missed something. :D

Remember, to participate, you need to register here and ask me to be either a dueler or a judge

No, but its not really like a tournamet either, which is still why I like the check system the most :P. Anyhow, I will be in in the sense i will let peopel challenge me, but I am not going to worry to much about doing well in this 'league'

As Masta pointed out, this is not a tournament, this is merely a league or a 1-week saber FFA if I may say.

The idea of a tournament is cool, however, you have to organize things a bit more in depth I think.

A tournament is about having brackets, having a structure to know who fought who, who won, who lost, will there be a chance given you the losers or not, etc.

Looks like you just had the idea of putting people to duel for points, and dropped it on the forums without much explanation or preparation...

I'm not saying that's a bad idea, but I think the expérience would be much more enjoyable if it had a better structure. Maybe you should delay the date and work on that, don't you think ?


Thats why I like the 'check' system ( I really do not know what it is called, I kind of came up with teh system my self, there is a good chance that it has been used in the past by someone though, liek a 99.9 % chance since nothing is new under the son)

Im in, althouhg I like the check mark system better ((when you win a duel you get a check, you may only duel people with the same number of checks, so eventaully everyone will be ranked out in order from last to first, since eventaully everyeon will havea different number of checks, how many players are participating gets you a general idea how many checks the person in first place will have. I like this system, becauseit a test of your skill and not based on as much as duelign also, the reason I like it more then elimination, because the two best duelers may duke it out at the very beggining in an elimination system. This is nto the case in check system, thy may fight each other right off the bat, but the loser can go fight someone else who had just lost against someone and does not have a 'check' yet. The only problem with this method is it takes alot of time and organization.)

I got permission from Buzz for the duels to be held in any of our servers. Wireplay, home, etc.

Actually, duels, not FFA. :P

I've got all the stuff done though, just look at

http://www.takaru.net/plug.php?p=ladder

That is where the judge reports the duel, who won, who lost etc. The system calculates all the points on its own. :D

Thing is, we have to organize matches ourselfs yes?

Wow dude, wouldnt it be a lot easier just to post screenshots somewhere or something like that?Bothering the judges all the time to come and watch matches isnt really my thing...


You could take a screenshot and show it to a judge. But both of the duelers must agree with this. As in, if you just ask someone random for a duel, without even telling them it's for the tournament, and then take a screenshot of your win and show it to the judge, it wont count.

:cool:
