I think this type of model has been tried before on FFR without much success. It's very difficult to get a large group of people to commit to the same time schedule multiple times over. I think as long as you have 16+ people who are participating you can safely continue with it.

I'm aware, yeah. :/

I wanted to give it a shot and it seemed like the interest was there but it's simply impossible to catch everyone at once. It is what it is.

Re: TC_Halogen's High Speed Bracket Tournament

I'm gonna have to drop out of the tournament as well for multiple reasons aka won't ever be able to be on time or be at my top game and I've lost my will to compete on FFR lately. Goodluck to everyone else and hope this tournament still becomes a success.

Re: TC_Halogen's High Speed Bracket Tournament

hm~ whenever i run tournaments like this i usually go out of my way to show sympathy/emotions whenever a difficult decision (i.e. disqualification) has to be made. makes the person yr disqualifying feel a little less alienated about the whole thing; going about it in a formal way seems to be a quick way to make an already frustrated situation worse imo~ even an emoticon or somethin goes a long way ŻuŻ;;

(especially if it involves credits/symbolic compensation for doin the thing, haha)

Sometimes social skills are used on the internet too I'll never understand why

I like to use sarcasm on the internet but I feel it's even worse than being formal lol

Depends how the brackets take into consideration people's skill level. Still probably gonna be a few monsters sweeping brackets though.

Re: TC_Halogen's High Speed Bracket Tournament

I'm still not sure how much I'm willing to do this anymore.

It's not just you guys and those dropping out; it's actually more that I've lost quite a bit of interest in FFR over the past week, and I'm also somewhat busy with classwork lately too.

At the end of the day, I know I can return the donated credits back to the users and just hand out those who attempted the qualification (including Mahou/Rapta), but there seems to be a general interest in this concept. I'm really not excited to be doing this anymore, and I think that's a pretty big problem as a tournament host. If a host isn't interested in running their own event, it speaks volumes about how potentially bad the tournament has gotten to them.

I'm definitely not confident about this concept and I'm not sure what to do. I'll send a private message out today inquiring about those who are still interested in the tournament and then figure out how I want to go about things.

Qualifications will most likely be on Saturday, February 7th at 9 PM server time. However, I will give you guys things to do just to get more acclimation with the system and process of submitting (similar to the mock qualifier, I'll do some mock scheduling so that people get an idea of what they should be doing).
