OK you nubs here's how it works. "Wanted" Competition Rules: People sign up in this competition. We get a player pool. Each player is given a certain amount of money, let's say $100 each. Let's say that each player has a salary of a certain amount of $ a week. Any player is allowed to challenge anyone else. The challenge must done publicly where everyone can see (scheduling is also done here). Both players then play a Bo5. The rules of how the match is played out will be revealed at a later time. The player who wins that match takes a certain % of the other player's money. This % depends on the score. For example, if Flash beats JD 3-0, then Flash will take 50% of JD's money. 3-1 would be 40% and 3-2 would be 30%. Players can play as many matches as they want during the week, though the matches must still be issued from challenges for it to count. The replays of the series must be posted on RTSS for the match to count. A player can refuse a challenge by paying the challenger a small sum of money. For every refusal however, the price of dodging raises (maybe it will reset every week). Also note, to prevent players from being swamped with challenges, only one challenge can be addressed to a player at a time. To make sure that players don't just sit on that challenge, players are given 24 hours to respond to the challenge. It's also possible for a player to challenge someone and be challenged at the same time; this way a player will have up to two matches to manage during a given time, which should be manageable. It's up to players to challenger whoever they want. For example, people will be ill-advised to challenge H20... however if H20 participates and starts accumulating money, then he suddenly becomes a pretty juicy person to take down. Also remember that H20 is allowed to challenge YOU as well. Best of 5 Rules: TBD Player pool: TBD Things to come: We're looking to add several things to this competition if it's possible. "Possible" implies that the rules set here are fair and competitive, with no loopholes to abuse. This means that the rules posted may change if necessary. That's why it's called "Alpha build". We're trying to set something up which is pretty different from your normal tournament, so some modifications to these initial set of rules will probably be necessary. The other implication is getting other people involved, those other people bringing something to the tournament. I'm talking about the community hotshots who have proven themselves in the past. Anyway, a few of the things we're looking to add to this are: -A prize pool at the end. Could be with a tournament with money earned by players being used for seeding and/or early access to higher rounds (for example player with highest amount of money would just have to wait in Ro8 while everyone else starts from Ro64, something along those lines). Prize pool with real money obviously, not the stuff we're using in the tournament. -Wouldn't be bad to allow players to place bets with their money as well. However that depends on gs. Bets probably won't include every match being played but probably more like a few that have been chosen by gs himself. -Casting some of the better looking matches. Need to contact good commentators for that though I'm sure they'll be interested if enough people play. -Bounties. If a few players start really standing over the rest, a bounty will be issued. Any player who takes down a player with a bounty will get a huge sum of money as a bonus, to be added to the money taken from the player directly. Depending on how you guys feel about this, we can start as early as this weekend. We need a minimum amount of players to get this started however. If you're even half-interested: sign up. You have nothing to lose at all. If we can get this weird ass beta build of a tournament up and running smoothly then perhaps we can transition into something more serious. Player Pool: |

Been thinking on how the money is going to be used in the light of a competitive tournament. I think the best idea is the following: let's say H20 is raping face and has LOTs of money. let's say he has more than 50% of the entire amount of cash. let's say 52%. that's an insane amount btw winner - 100% finals (ro2) - 50% semifinals (ro4) - 25% ro8 - 12.5% With 52%, H20 gets seeded directly into the finals. a player with 25% of the total amount gets seeded directly into the semi-finals. hmm. i don't think it's possible for anyone to get that amount of money really. however perhaps just in case, we would divide the amount of % by 2. so H20 at 52% would get 26% which would seed him directly into the semi-finals instead of the finals. i think that the way cash is transferred from the winning to the losing player should also be a bit more complicated than just a certain %. it should be so that if the series is close, the winning player doesn't get as much cash. also, i think the larger the difference between two player's banks, the smaller the amount of money the winning player gets. idk gs, your thoughts? would you run your betting for this? |

I see a few issues with this. When can you cash in your money ? Unless there is a limit on how many people you can refuse to plat with, H20 is never going to het any matches. Everyone should be able to cast recs even the top gameplay. The people who cast better are more like known and will het the more appropriet views(don't make this about pkclan again). Where are the rules on disqual ? There is nothing about livestreaming. These are the rules for prequalifications ? Where does all the money come from ? Who are you admins and what are they allowed to do plat and cast and stuff ? |

Slow down

not sure if this would work, it may be too complicated to really take off. also you need a cash prize to make a tourny work, do you have any sponsors? back story on this? did you come up with it on your own and why are you looking to run something like this? |

yeah i thought of this up pretty randomly. kind of way to literally put a price tag on a player. it's sort of like betting/poker in a sense where you there are decisions to be made outside the actual match. who do you challenge? a bigshot with a lot of money* or someone your own level. *as for the money itself, i think the formula should be something like this (A = player A's cash, likewise for B) with A the victor in this case: money gained by A = 0.5*B*(B/A) why do i want to run something like this? honestly, to give people an incentive to play. no one cares about ranked matches or ladder so this gives people an excuse to play and watch the games. it's all for fun. cash prize would be nice but before any real money is involved it's important that such a weird ass competition actually be fair. |

i don't see it as that complicated though. players only have to schedule for two matches a week and post results. i guess they do have to think of who they challenge. that's part of the fun though most of the tallying can be done with an excel spreadsheet as well |

i think your main challenge is getting a sponsor because if there is no money involved, people won't have enough motivation to try and make it work. they might sign up but will lose interest fast. btw about RTSS, does it work for anyone? i have this saved, i've wanted to post it for 2 days now but when i click add reply it takes me to the homepage. really frustrating lol
