On the same subject, the lowest value should be 2 really. OK its a straight Final, BUT at least the 2 people that entered that particular Elimination would get to play
MadMonkey: Already people complain that some players get "too" much credit for winning a tournament when there are only 4 players in the tournament - having only 2 or 3..... I honestly don't think that is a good idea. 4 is a good minimum number.
But as for the elimination tournaments, you should ALWAYS have either 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, or 128 spaces for players
4 sign up - have 4 player elimination tournament, no byes
5 sign up - have 8 player tournament, with 3 players getting byes
6 sign up - have 8 player tournament, with 2 players getting byes
7 sign up - have 8 player tournament, with 1 player getting bye
8 sign up - have 8 player tournament
9 sign up - have 16 player tournament, with 7 players getting byes
10 sign up - have 16 player tournament, with 6 players getting byes
11 sign up - have 16 player tournament, with 5 players getting byes
... and so on. At first when I looked at your tournament examples you posted below, at quick glance I first thought... Oh, those look OK - but then noticed they were a 12 section tournament with 8 players, and a 14 section tournament with 9 players... which of course would be interesting to see what the system does in later rounds when there is an odd amount of sections to match people up against.
coan.net: I know how Eliminations work, i play Darts every week in them
I do not see how anyone can complain that certain players get "too" much credit for winning a Tournament
It is not the players fault who entered a Tournament, they took a chance and participated. Whether they won one round or 10 rounds, they put there name down....and if anyone complains about someone winning something too easily the answer is simple, enter yourself
To me the more games started, the more Tournaments started, the more people get to play games, and that is why i thought we were here.....simple
MadMonkey: .... and my more detailed explanation wasn't really geared towards you, but a more detailed on it for anyone else who might be confused about it. (Did not mean to sound like my whole post was directed at you... that part was more of just a general layout of how the byes should work.)
