Re: Unofficial Team Tourney Discussion Thread

I like the idea of having a Team Black Wins style tournament...you know...the kind where Team Black wins.




I like the idea of random challenges and anti-PA, because it gives everyone a fair chance. Don't do most boo's, I would win.

Re: Unofficial Team Tourney Discussion Thread

The point system one could be cool, it could be something like 3 new challenges released every day and if your team is the first to complete one, then you get say 4 points, 2nd team to complete it gets 3 points and so on. The challenges can stay open for the entirety of the tournament, or until all four teams have completed them.

Still waiting for what you guys think about an anti-PA tournament.

didnt notice lol anyways

Im all for it as being part of the tourney

just pointing out choosing representatives of a team to participate in a tournament and leaving out the other players sort of defeats the entire purpose of having a team in the first place

rotating players is another thing. 10 are selected for one thing, 10 more for another etc..

Re: Unofficial Team Tourney Discussion Thread

Well, it depends on how you look at it. If you're thinking about doing it where the last person in each division wins that division for their team, then yes, it really isn't much of a team effort. If you're thinking about doing it similar to how I mentioned it in this post, (where you have a team score per round and the team with the most "round wins" wins) then it can be more of a team effort. I have no preference at this time.

I get it now. i.e
10 players in 5 divisions (each).
First Round is GGC for Masters.
All masters on the same team add up there score.
Highest score achieved in that round makes the team win and so forth.

But this strictly puts a disadvantage to Team Black. Since the only legit place to place any team Black member is in 'Masters' therefore each round they only have a chance of winning for that section when clearly other teams can compete in all other rounds.

Im looking at it as a division round win though.. because if its just score OVERALL, masters have the upper hand on harder songs, more steps etc...

Rly don't know how this is going to work atm.

The free-for-all works because its not a team effort.

Re: Unofficial Team Tourney Discussion Thread

Here's an idea: Each player has to play a song using settings such as Dizzy, Tornado, Hidden, Sudden, Stealth, etc.

You can also have each team play on alternate arrow mode or sideways (left/right)? To produce more of a challenge.

Re: Unofficial Team Tourney Discussion Thread

Free-for-all Tournament sounds good. Kongregate sounds like it could work out fine. (Flash games in general.) FFR Trivia...I suppose that could work out, but it probably shouldn't be the entire round within a team tournament. (That is, if all of these ideas are going to be incorporated in to one team tournament.) But yeah, it could be made to work out I'm sure.

I'm not too sure about Showdown. Team Red lacks in number, so it would have to be lower than 30 if you want to involve all of the teams fairly. Problem is, if we make it something lower so that all teams can have enough players for, Team Black will have a ridiculous advantage.

I understand that each team will have advantages in some aspects, but I would prefer that any tournament modes we engage in would keep advantages at a minimal level with equal participation. (I know the advantages wouldn't be balanced within the master division of the free-for-all tournasment, but when you look at the tournament as a whole, the advantages are balanced.)

The way I can see Showdown working well is if you took a few people from each division on each team. (Instead of just being able to select the 30 best or whatever. I know that wasn't implied, but I'm just pointing it out.) Problem is, you can't really do that with Team Black or Team Red and have it mix well with the other teams. (Team Black because your team is pure master/expert players and Team Red because they are lacking in the expert+ players.) Basically, I don't see Showdown completely working right away with the teams in their current state. Team Chaos, Team Blue, and Team Black could probably do it with just a few expert and master players each, though.

Edit: Yeah, a point system would be a good idea.

The free-for-all works because its not a team effort.
Showdown was thought up fairly quickly and was supposed to give a disadvantage in amount to team Black purposely. But I do see the random choice of players are something similar working fairly.

Run like a normal tour, but have like each team chooses like X amount of people to represent in a divsion. Like Say team Blue chooses 5 beg, inter, adv. etc to represent that them in the tourn. But teams like Chaos and Black pick like 5-10 people from their team since they are more to one division.

I think I just made this sound really confusing. XD

Yea, I have no idea what you mean =P

how exactly will this tourny work...will it be something like last player in each team that is left wins? but that probs wouldnt work because then we'd be turning against each other...so im guessing your going different rounsd, and biggest scoring team wins...so in that case...

i hate min, but i like her idea about tough scores on different songs, like av-flags, 32 ave on excite bike...all goods on synthlight, and other things like that. that could probably work.

i dont really know how trivia would work, cause you cant really work as a team to answer those...

uhmm, how bout a mash round...most boos on a certain song or something, above 200 boos = 1 point, 300 boos, 2 point etc. (dont get mad at me causse i suggested mashing im just throwing out ideas) and the top 10 people in each team (boo-wise) would have their scores counted.

uhmm i cant really think of anything else roundwise...to make things even,it would really depend on what the round was. if it was anything to do with FFR and you decided to go with mins idea, you could make it a different task for each team (harder task for black, etc)

thats all i can think of atm

This tourney needs to include all team members and teams one way or another, so thats why i want it to be multiple events if so.
Id never make any of you play a Synthlight file.
Mash round would me difficult.. vibrators + RATO = Pwnt so it would have to be like a FMO or something difficult to mash.

No, There is no reason to go harder on Team Black. It was the last team made. Not my fault I just happen to be a good leader and recruit amazing players with the help of my fellow companions. It was fair.

A Scavenger Hunt for different things FFR related? This would take a bit of setting up but it would be fair for all teams.

This could be a blend of the Trivia. i.e. When did the first skill token ever come out??

Re: Unofficial Team Tourney Discussion Thread

I'm not a fan of free-for-all tournaments AT ALL. The point system tourny seems best to me.

Re: Unofficial Team Tourney Discussion Thread

There has been a successful anti-PA tournament in the past... how about a team anti-PA tourney? (There can be... say, about 5 people from each team participating in each round. They all play the same song, and going by 2 points per average, 1 point per good, or something like that, the team with the highest cumulative total gets 6 Grade Points, 2nd highest total gets 4, and so on. The entire tournament can consist of about 8 rounds, after which the team with the most Grade Points will win)

EDIT: Or maybe we can go by the in-game score (the score at the bottom of the screen when playing a song), and the team with the lowest cumulative total gets 6 Grade Points for that round, etc. (They must all pass the song, of course)
