O čem je toďten plk: Re: Initiating (too many) tournaments
redfrog: "Selecting a particular game type to display is not really a solution"
I agree with Pioneer - there are a bunch of different variations on a few main game types here. There should just be 7 new filters, one for each group already defined on the New Game page.
That should be easy, right Fencer? Maybe even an 8th one just for Pente variations???? Just kidding... kinda...
Thad: No offense Thad, but the rules at IYT state there can be ties for sections, but:
"When all games in all sections are completed, the players who scored highest in their sections advance to the next round, where they are placed in new sections. The process repeats until there is a single champion for each game type within a tournament."
There was a Keryo tourney I saw there went 10 rounds, the last 6 or 7 or which were between just 3 guys, but a winner finally emerged. Ask "Steve (who sometimes waits until round 10 to lose)"
Anyway, who cares, that's IYT - I agree with your point though, ties suck - maybe Fencer could allow an option (like time limit options) to set whether a tourney can end in a tie or not?
redfrog: Thanks, bro - while I didn't have the stones to manage all the sections, I'm proud to have my first tourney win hosted by and populated with some great players!
redfrog: Finally gave up on beating me yourself, eh frog? Poor guy. Everybody, take it easy on the frog, he's had a tough run lately. (oh, and don't think I don't see you taking sides, Partica!)
