Guys.. the real issue is not the round limit... its the math that decides the winner. If more math/thought is put into how a winner is decided in the case of the limits being met.. we would find much less opportunity for abuse. I suggest we fix the big problem first.. then look at it all again and ...

At first blush, I loved the idea. Imposing a turn limit is a great way to avoid those endless "reinforce and hold" games with no RISK (or even Fixed value Risk). CC is very responsive to players needs.

But there were several ways to do it. Determine the winner by number of territories held, by the ...

Why not have a user entered #? It can be a dropdown box with Lots of choices.

At this point, until the feature is used more, its probably best to keep some things standard and organized. The more options we give the user at this point, the more disorganized things can get it. I would suggest the ...

Hey blake... 3 things..

1. You are correct.. I made an assumption.. my apologies.
2. you are assuming it was not lack.
3. It has to do with the quote that was in this very thread.. and also posted on 'lacks' wall.. so.. shhhhh.

I know of at least one other mod team leader that quit in protest to lack's complete disregard for concerns about those trying to improve the site. It wouldn't surprise me in the least if he quit because of the bureaucratic b.s. one has to put up with in his position.

Then again I could be way off ...

Just curious as to why my last reply was 'censored' and removed? I was very positive about the addition of the round limit.. I just made the suggestion that it should be based on more then just who has the most troops and I gave example as to why that's so and even offered to find a proper ...

OK.. here is the thing.. If I open the registration up to 16 players.. and lets say 16 do end up signing up.. if only 12 show up.. that is not on me.. thats on the players.. In that case..as it is in almost every gaming event.. there will be 4 players that get a bye (16-4 = 12 = 4 players with a bye ...

The rules are very clear.. but to simplify things even more.. here are how things will work.

Once we get 16 people to sign up/register on the CSN site that wish to take place in this event.. we will set a date/time to do so.

It really should not be that hard.. in fact.. i should be able to setup ...

For some reason.. I am not getting approval to run this event yet. Apparently you must have 16 players actually show up for an event.. which is just absurd. I ran an event with me and my buddies not too long ago .. using CC as the game. We had just 4 of us.. put a bit of a wager on the outcome and ...

Flex.. I have been running online gaming events for 10 years.. There is nothing shady about what I am doing here. Just this last Sunday we ran a Star Craft II event where over 7000 people were tuned into a stream to watch the matches. Along with that, this next Sunday we are offering a $500 prize ...

ya.. i have no issue with you using incorrect information.. *until of course if you win. Then we will need your information to send you the prize money.

We need more people signed up for this.. it perplexes me that some of the tournaments can get over 300 players.. for no prize at all. I am ...

I have extended the sign ups until this coming Saturday afternoon.. but I need all of those interested in playing to sign up on the CSN ( www.cyber-sports.net ) website and JOIN the event. This tournament is much different then what you all are used to as it will have a real bracket system and will ...

Registration has been extended and I will be throwing in a YEAR MEMBERSHIP to CC for 3rd place.

Thanks.

i have put down those that have said they will sign up and will be going through the list today.

Due to a family issue, I will need to extend the start date to next Sunday. I apologize. This is not normal for a tournament that I run, but this issue has made it very difficult for me to have the time ...

OK Folks.. here is the update!

1. The 'Gender' bug has been fixed on the site and I see that several of you have signed up. If you were not able to before, please try again and we will start to see the bracket fill up.

2. The format for the event has changed based on some suggestions given here ...

Thank you guys.. its not about trying to get peeps to come to my site.. I already have thousands of users.. I just want to run CC tournaments properlly.. for too long..its all been through here.. which is solid..its just not solid enough. the best thing CC could do.. it just create a quick bracket ...

ahh.. good point.. I should have paid attention to the settings I was putting out there.
OK.. I will adjust some of the settings for sure.. expect an update tomorrow.

One thing though.. how is it painful taking 3 minutes to register for a site? :P The cool thing about this site is that its meant ...

hey. if only 1 person signs up.. they will get the entire $100.. This is the real deal kids.. I know the CC community is not used to having actual prizing and an actual bracket system to compliment an event.. but here it comes..

Ok.. I am a bit confused here.. :P

I am giving away 100.00 in cash prizes and yet.. no one has even responded to this thread. Is it possible that people do not see this as legit?

I am curious.. please shed some light on the subject peeps!

This is the real deal.. and from this, we will start to ...

Start SIGNING UP!

I forgot to mention.. this event is FREE to enter. There are NO entry fees of any sorts.. its just a tournament.. like all of the others.. only the winners are getting prizes!

Thanks,

John 'El Grande' Clark

Cyber Sports Network is proud to announce full support for Conquer Club!

When Is This New and Exciting Event?

April ?, 2011 - Sunday @ 9 ...

I am a bit confused as to why you don't choose to run 'round robin' as you like. Who has decided that the way you had it outlined in your initial post is the correct way. My first tournament was round robin, and I used a points system to determine the winners and it was also NOT 1v1. There are many ...

The thing with our system though..is that you sign up for the site.. and JOIN the tournament.. then at the time of the tournament.. you CHECK IN.. this ensures the admins (myself) that you are there. We then add the 16 players that are CHECKED IN. More then 16 can join the event..but only those that ...

So ... lets say that National ESL ran a 16 person Single Elimination Speed Bracket Tournament.. would there be interest?

We could start with 8 to test it all... make sure everyone understands the site.. so on. Players submit their results and are automatically moved to next round once the loser ...
