Big NNG tournament next wipe?

Subject: Big NNG tournament next wipe? Thu Jul 07, 2016 12:44 pm

Would anyone join if next wipe I hosted a big tournament that lasted several days and enabled players to get their matches done whenever they ran into their assigned opponent? Matches would be best 3/5 games (a game meaning 1 fight). In other words, the first person to get to 3 wins is victorious. Players would be able to use any clan/character of their choice for any match, but would only be able to switch to a different clan/character after a game loss.

People would get their matches done whenever they ran into their assigned opponent. This would nullify time constraint issues. I think I would allow 3 days or maybe even more for each round to finish.

The winner would send an email to me reporting the score and result of their match. I would use this info to manage the tournament bracket. I would provide video of shuffling the contestants and creating the bracket (randomly) so that there would be no bias, and the active bracket would be open to public view.

I’m thinking the tournament would be Double Elimination because that’s the format used for pro fighting game tournaments. There would be prizes. Please let me know what you think, what you would change, and ask questions.

I'll be on holidays soon, so probably not. Thought that depends on how long it's going to take for the next wipe, and if i'll have the time to cap again. Nice initiative though. =)

While I do think this is a good idea, for organization purposes I just think it should either be done all in one day or one weekend.

Definitely up for this. It sounds like this could take a very long time to conclude, though.
