Sounds good. Let me know if I can help you in something.
I think you have to clarify that if a player dont join the game and is not reponding in the gruop stage games. they have to contact you. Also time limits?

I'm interested. Sounds like something I would want to be a part of. Count me in.

I'm interested.

Time for me to do Rules.. :)

1. There must be a written explanation to the tournament host (me) for abandonment or no participation is match. Failure to do so will be put to expulsion.

2. Founding of using alts will be punished as quickly and as severe. Founding of the main account following the alt. Will result in the two Accounts being banned from the tournament.

3. The Host has the final say in awarding of games/Expulsion or anything to due in this tournament.

4. Abuse to the host or to any player will result in a awardment of a match.

Any rules I feel that have to be put on this list will be added.

This sounds fun, I'll join it. It would be nice to come back to the game and get right back into leagues and stuff.

I'm game

I will play if you need a 32nd player. Otherwise I would like to help organize this. If I am not competing I think I can sort players into seeds without a bias. I assume you want to play and this will give you a bias. I am also willing to help find templates or create tournaments.

Well I will play. With regards to the group stage I think these a best done creating small private (not like there is much choice for public these days) RR tourneys with the 4 players in that group (assuming it's the same template all though the group). I think it's quite a long shot to get the players to create the games themselves, but also in the knock-out fase you or your helpers just need to make the games and invite the 2 players, who are supposed to play (assuming you want the 1st vs. 2nd from their respective groups feature, otherwise it is just making another tourney inviting the players who went on from group stages). There will likely be a problem with people not joining, but just count that as a loss after a predefined amount of time. So I think this migth very well work.

Nice concept. For the first season you can manually seed players. However, after that it should be based on results in the previous seasons(like how champions league coefficients work).


"""
it isn't Round-Robin but is kind-of like that I guess.. Players will play each other. Which would be 3 games each. It wouldn't be in a round-robin tournament setting it. It would be done by the players inviting and playing each other. Sending the official results to me with the game link.
"""

That sounds tedious and I can easily see this holding up the league because of inactive players(or pairs). Why can this not be a RR tournament with auto boot which respects vacations?


I'd like to play, as long as the template is reasonable.

Figure he'd put a vote up on which template -everyone- agreed on, but if not I figured it would be the same one as the 1v1 Ladder (Not RT)

I agree sounds fun and count me in, i do have an affinity with the letter D lol...
Think it should be RRs for groups though and 2 separate tourneys for the knockout atages

I'd be interested in participating.

Yeah I'd like to play. Not sure we'll manage to get 32 players though. Might be worth doing 16.

I will seed players into 4 pots. Each pot will be named A B C D. A is the better players D is the worser players. 8 players will be A. 8 players will be B. 8 players will be C. 8 players will be D.

Why? Why not do it world cup style? The best 4 players will be divided over the groups, then the next 4, then the next four. The way you have it now you`ll eliminate a lot of good players, while giving less skilled players a chance to reach further, only to get beaten by the good players. Wouldn`t it make more sense to divide every group equally?

Count me in

@Min, he will divide them in 4 pots based on strength and then make the groups with 1 player out of every pot so you have a diverse group (the groups are divided equally then)

I will play. I may have missed it but was a template posted?

Fc Bayern Munich likes to join the Champions League ;-)

@Koala, you are right, I misread it. Sorry for that post :D

The most overused template in history. Good for training, not competition because it is so overused.
