Tournament Director Task Distribution List

[Night Strike]

List Updated 10.23.14

As Tournament Directors, we each have a limited amount of time that we can provide to Directing based on personal lives, running tournaments, and other responsibilities that we have. Each Director has taken on tasks that they know they can commit to without over-burdening themselves. In order to help you know who to contact with a specific question or concern, I've compiled this list of duties that each Director is responsible for.

Every Director will check the Create/Join Forum for [Full] tournaments in order to move them and grant privileges.

He has not been deployed yet. Steel only distributes medals, like it says by his name in the post above.

Night Strike, Head Tournament Director

Premium Prize Bank

Ok im confused-what Premium Prize bank means?
When i create Qwert 1vs1 Tournament who count 80 players,i ask some Tournament mods,can give me some Premium prize for this tournament,they say that this not exist any more and that from now nobody can get Premium prize for touranment?
If you again give Premium prize for interesting tournaments can i aplicate(compete,or some other appropriate words for that ) for that?

[Gilligan]

CC doesn't donate premium any more, but if you purchase premium for someone CC will match it.

Fixed it.

Could I not join this team and do a job like Steelhorse does? Or maybe take one of Night Strike's jobs to ease his workload.

I've always wanted to join TeamCC. Especially in the Tournaments area.

You can go fill out the application Optimus put in the announcement thread a couple months ago and PM it to him. If I need to add someone else, I look to see who I'm interested in asking as well as reviewing any applications he has on hand.


By the way, the first post has been updated with The Fuzzy Pengui.

[Night Strike]

In the process of being fixed, but since sonicsteve is on vacation, it's hard to settle down exactly where everything will fall.

[Teflon Kris]

Yes, normal service will be resumed very soon.

We can still deal with anything amongst us in the meantime. PM us as normal.

You should probably have talked about some TPA things before the tourney dept. got more TDs to run this show.

Too busy doing TPA stuff, my friend!

I found that getting a variety of TO's to fill gaps was problematical from time to time, so for gaps I relied on the regulars, chap, mac, Duke and of course greenoaks, plus I was doing more tournaments myself that I really wanted to do.

Having picked up many TPA1 and TPA2 abandoned tournaments from experienced TO's I did not just rely on experienced TO's in TPA3 and let many TO's who put themselves forward to do one have a go - only being let down once. Getting a wide variety of tournaments is difficult to plan for though, perhaps more forward planning needed in good time.

Sometimes the results needed going through to get the correct order for entering, so getting the order for ALL players from each TO makes it straight forward to enter the results.

The scoring is automated using Excel and macros, so when they are correctly ordered it takes only a short time to update the Excel - uploading to Google Drive is a bit of a pain when the spreadsheet gets large.

The divisions of types of tournaments into the three types before they begin is variable - perhaps better to see how complex a tournament has become after recruitment before finalising the points attributed to it.

As you know, it can be difficult to know how long various formats of tournament last, though getting the more complex tournaments started early in the schedule and the shorter ones towards the end of the schedule does seem to be working reasonably well.

But I'm not intending to go anywhere yet - I will have TPA3 stuff completing for several months anyway, so use me as you want.
