Tournament ENHANCEMENT SUGGESTIONS

Tournament ENHANCEMENT SUGGESTIONS


Just a few SUGGESTIONS on how we can enhance our tournaments.

TAKE NOTE that it is the number of WINS that determine a tournament Victor and the Objective tokens are usually just counted in terms of placing after the champ.

** (Enhanced) REAL PURE FACTION BUILDS get 1 Objective Token added to their Total for the tournament.**

 - Now since our tournaments may include any figure (any faction), I think it would be nice to give a small bonus to players who opt to build "REAL PURE" faction armies. This build will have to be strictly pure. That means Order Of the 9 will not be counted as an addition to the REAL PURE FACTION. This will also encompass the old MK1.0 factions and the new MK2.0 factions (ex. Atlantis Guild and Atlantean Empire ; Black Powder Rebels and Black Powder Revolutionaries) They will NOT be considered REAL PURE FACTION when mixed.  Riders and Mounts will both have to be of the same faction in order to be considered part of a REAL PURE FACTION. This will also affect the Shyft and Magespawn link as well though, a REAL PURE Shyft army will have to have ONLY Shyft faction figures in order to be qualified as a REAL PURE FACTION BUILD. If the army is a REAL PURE FACTION BUILD, then they get 1 Objective Token added to their Final Objective Total for the tournament.

** PRESENT!!! **

 - Players who are at the Venue at the pre-arranged time (+15 mins) of the tournament get 1 Objective Token added to their Final Objective Total for the tournament. This is just a small bonus for the players who make it at the venue on time. Ultimately, the earlier we start, the more enjoyable it is as we get to have more games packed in plus more time for after event sessions. This suggestion coming from me ;-) . It's my New Year's Resolution I guess.

** PLAYER STATS PROFILE **

 - Needing some help on what stats may be of significance (ex. win Ratio, Wipeout opponent ratio, critical Hits per game, critical misses per game, Faction preference, Most used Cards, Most used Figure, etc..).

** Legalized STALLING? **

 - For those occasions where there honestly really isn't an action to do or there is only 1 Legal action to do. This will only trigger once the "LAST BLANK MINUTES" bell rings. The current player has 15 seconds to end the turn. 

These are just a few ideas :-) ... Any insight or further suggestions?

I love the idea about stalling i honestly think that it shouldn't be with just last blank minutes!!!!!!

Baby steps bro. Typically the stalling bit is not a major issue on the main portion of the match. It's most felt on the last blank minutes.

** (Enhanced) REAL PURE FACTION BUILDS get 1 Objective Token added to their Total for the tournament.**

- I vote YES.

** PRESENT!!! **

- I vote NO. suggestion: Only punctual players can be lined up for the fellowship award for the day.

** PLAYER STATS PROFILE **

- I vote YES though I know this will be toxic for the person in charge of monitoring/tracking/documentation. If anyone is willing to take lead then go for it.

Suggestion:

*Player ranking. basically getting the win/loss scores for every game. Legal tournaments and Events only. Do not include games at home.

** Legalized STALLING? **

- I vote YES.

Suggestions:

* Does not apply to NEWBIES.
* 3 mins max per turn regardless of the number of figs. Failure to comply forfeits the remaining actions during that turn.
* Only a warlord/medium/3rd party can determine stalling time to avoid conflicts (or if you guys have a seperate timer for the stall time).
* applies to all stages of the game and not the "blank minutes" only.


I appreciate this initiative and I will give my full support to it   

Thanks Nye for the input :-)

** (Enhanced) REAL PURE FACTION BUILDS get 1 Objective Token added to their Total for the tournament.**
REAL PURE FACTION builds are a challenge to build on it's own. Thanks to the Title matches and the Faction War, it's opened players minds to building such an armies. The REAL PURE FACTION build will be even a lot more challenging and thus it should be rewarded.

** PRESENT!!! **
I understand that it's really not that popular a choice as we normally start our tournaments at around 3 or 4pm. Maybe we should just adjust the Time from 2pm to 3pm?

** PLAYER STATS PROFILE **
I'll start with the basic win-ratio :-) . I may be asking you guys for trivial stuff like: "What's your most hated faction to go against"


** Legalized STALLING? **
Good Point about the noobies. Yup we'll exempt them from it till they get the hang of it.

Let's start it with the blank minutes first. We''ll expound it further after that. We then will not be calling it "stalling" anymore (15secs) since it's already legal. Can someone think of a better term for it then?  It's like calling for a 30 second timeout in basketball. Gives the coach and it's player's time to think and plot the next plays. Players will need to provide their own means for the 15second count. A simple watch will do. It's main purpose is really about awareness. Let's refrain from shouting as we're counting down though hehehe

i'm excited about the player ranking thing hehehehe.

stalling is always an issue but i think da time out thing can work. i think a player can be allowed to have a minute per game. i think the time needs to be officialy stopped at this instance. i think dats more dan enough time.

It might be a little too much for the time keeper or warlord to halt the time for a time-out for each player, though I agree that it does sound interesting.

personal tracking n lng ung time pre less to do s warlord
