good luck to those who enter tonight


I thought more would have joined, but never the less the winner will pick next Tournament with rules


Unfortunately i couldn't get a bath before and had to wait, if i entered i may have run the risk of leaving mid game which these don't deserve

Did you do those announcements in the game chat at the bottom leading up to it? I remember those were in place a while ago, where there would be announcements in the days and hours leading up to the big tourneys. I think those might be useful.

I think so... maybe because thread was moved and new place for Tournament News etc... Leading up to future events, i will do announcements/post within time for all to know about. Will give warnings 1 hour before. But please check this thread for updates as well.


Good idea, maybe do the tournament details a day before it starts, Post announcement every two hours then on the day, every hour?

Most of us know when it starts but useful for those who never see the forums

Also need people to comment if wish to make Super Tournaments longer?

As it is possible

Semi-final: has 394minutes on a race to 7 - Total's 6hours 30minutes plus possible

Final: has 514minutes on a race to 9 - Total's 8hours 30minutes plus possible

Arcade, Regular. Original, Power, Carom all possible.

Example:

Final: race to 15
Semi-final: race to 12
Quarter-final: race to 9
Others: race to 3.


Please post you example like the above.

Final: ???
Semi-final: ???
Quarter-final: ???
Others: ???

Need to know what you think about this idea, are people up for longer Tournaments?

I think the time limits and the amount of frames are just fine the way they are. Maybe the Power tournament should be a race to 5 rather than 3 because even with a 15 minute limit on each game that's probably the same kind of time frame people use to play a game of original or even reg depending on whos playing so even if a final takes close to 2 hours it's really what's kind of expected from a 'super tournament'.

Thanks for your input

What about 1 Tournament per month into a monster of a length?

Super tourns - I agree with mark, lets have these be exactly what it says on the tin.... super! final frame, best of 35 etc. Not for the faint hearted at all Also, a tourns to be given tournapoints and a good amount too for winner, runner up etc. Maybe a % of it based on your rank etc. Also, rather than the tournapoints being based on number of entrants, fix it at like 4000 etc, something that will draw the crowds
