Liked: the whole idea of b-tier tourney and your spreadsheet!

Didn't like: BYE system. IMO should either be none, or 1 max. Or yeawhatup had the idea that they should be worth something, as in if you don't use them you can cash them in for some points. Gives incentive to do all duels and not dodge people if you do allow BYEs.

The byes are a great idea, less of them or only x amount allowed to be used on a person this would favor the people who play earlier tho

Also it seemed some people were actively dodging and not using byes maybe there's a way around this?
maybe bonus points for not using a bye?


im down for w/ tourny

C tier would be fun lol
A tier or S tier would need a ref IMO
18 tourny sure but no chargers imo

Awesome tourney! Super cool idea that definitely let some of the slightly less powerful classes shine.
Plus I love not having to worry about hdins B)

Was going to suggest the same thing as madirish about a limit to byes used on a player.
3 byes seemed ok because ideally you only use them for duels you can't complete.

Definitely liked the format and byes. I liked the ending with the byes being distributed to make up for folks who didn't have a chance to duel. It helped make up for differences in schedules. Perhaps next time we don't use them at will and just save them for the end. MadIrish pointed out that there's a points incentive to not using byes if you can help it.


seems like my ideas and advice have been appreciated. much thanks guys
<3

also yay i got 6th! kinda happy about that having only completed 10 duels compared to the top 5s like 15-17 each jajaja

I think it works well as a mechanism to make up for entrants that can't otherwise meet up for their duesl. But I think using them strategically at-will leads to some issues.

Gfg and thank you for all legend

Love all the suggestions

Would suggest maybe keeping results blind until it ends under current rule set to encourage all to finish up, although it isn’t as fun, it’s more “result” oriented

I liked the bye idea... everyone could just bye the person they don’t like and that person has no chance of winning. Great idea imo!
