FFR Official Tournament Page Idea

[zegsigma]

(Items will be added to the list as other give there opinions, this is just a thought i had and i dont want to put too much stuff in this original post and i would like to know what people think and what things they would think would be good to add into this idea.)

I have now re-writen this 3 times, i cannot write my ideas down without it becoming impossible to understand so i am just going to write down the ideas as bullet points

I saw iironic's post of the skill level of players and thought it could go well with a official tournament creation page.

1. A Tournament for people to create them easier and to make the process a lot smoother.

pro's:

1. Donation button so people can donate any amount of credits to the tournament and there is no way in which someone can mis-count the credits donated which will make the donation process to tournaments a lot safer.

2. scores can be recorded automatically though to site so there is no way of cheating by submitting a doctored image.

CON's

1. only songs on FFR can be played for the Tournament to be created

suggestions

only vet's can make the Tournaments so that new players can make a lot of them and ruin it for a lot of other players

player's can only make 1 tournament per month to prevent too many being active at one time

iironic's ranking system can be implimented to the tournament to make sure everyone is in the correct division (if it gets taken on by the admins)

This is pretty much how tournaments are already run. Plus, there is the tournaments sub-forum. (:

My idea was to have a "Tournament Sidebar" That would display On-going tournaments so you wouldn't forget about it, and have a list of tournaments that haven't begun yet.

PS it would be under the profile chat part.

Hmm, would be nice :P

i know there is a sub forum, i have been looking at it all day and i cant find easily if they have begun or not, it was just a suggestion to make tournaments run smoother and also it would be less work for the massive tournaments that practically hundreds of people join, it is alot of work for the creator of the tournament.

I definitely like the idea of being able to see whether or not a tournament is already started or if sign-ups are still open. And also the idea of Wilson (iironiic)'s experiment with the ranking system, It could definitely make division placement much quicker

I am in full agreement with this. One big problem I've personally noticed with my tournaments is the lack of submissions from a good chunk of the participants. I think having this sidebar on the main page would significantly reduce this problem.
