AbigailII:
I Like The Idea

i dont think we need automatic periodic tournaments .. but automatic periodic team tournaments would be nice

maybe 5 per month, of a random game type
and 1 team tournament with random games

Hrqls:
team tournaments would be a great idea
but has for normal ones weve enough of them already
and we dont want to become as predictable and boring as ItsYourTurn!!!

Hrqls: I do not think we need regular Tournaments like IYT have. We create our own here which is great, but saying that look how many are still waiting for players. We seem to have to many individual Tournamnets as it is.
I create them 1 a week, and once a month in the Madhouse, plus any special ones people want. Yes, i go over the top, but i think Fellowships are a great thing to have and try to involve everyone as much as possible.

I like the idea of having a champion for each game every year.

As a treat maybe Fencer could have 2 prize Tournaments a year (1 for Pawns & 1 for Members).

As, has been said i think we should concentrate on Team Tournaments, as that really is part of being in a Fellowship, playing for a Team.

Its been roughly 14 weeks since the last Team ones started. Most first round are almost over, in fact some are in the final now, ok exception will always be the long games like cloning and Froglet, but why should the rest have to wait to start again. After all, there are quick games here now like Cheversi & Mancala.

I would like to see regular Team Tournaments, something like 12 every 2 or 3 months (maybe 2 chess, 2 Lines, 2 Gammons, 3 Others(as we call them) and 3 from this group (Reversi, Go, Boats & Espionage) as an idea.

One thing while i am here on Team Tournaments. At present Fencer gives a prize to the winning Team of each game. I think there should be at least 1st & 2nd place. There are some Team Tournaments that we know who will win before they even start, Chess being the prime example(nothing against Chess Club, they are awesome), so we are fighting for 2nd place.

Thats my say on Tournaments, Team & Individual.

Fencer could you still have a think about Team stairs please.

MadMonkey: I only don't like the idea about tournaments for pawns and for paying members. There are good players in either side, why shouldn't they be allowed to compete against each other on those tournaments?

pauloaguia: I agree to a point, its just an idea, but also i think its nice to give the Pawns something, this way we know brainking will have one new member. True they may not keep it, but at least they may help spread the word the advantages of being a paid member.

It would also stop anyone who thinks it is clever to create multiple accounts to give themselves a number of chances to win an overall Tournament. The best they could do is win the Pawn one, unless they buy multiple accounts, but then Fencer gets money anyway

Like i say, they are just ideas. I just hope for more Team Tournaments myself or/and Team Stairs
