Hey guys,
It is me again, Ahirun.
I'm here with a new suggestion that is more meaningful, a system of tier list on the form of championship (ladder).
If you have some time to hear me, I would be grateful.
Let me explain my self, but first i'll make a little summary for the people that do not know me :
First attempt of helping this game was to offer a ranking system to Diablo 2 players from, Europe and East, so they could have data as there is no existing ranking system known to date.
https://forums.d2jsp.org/topic.php?t=80961267&f=147
This attempt did not been successfully, but I won't give up so fast, I will in the upcoming months, collect as much data as I can, making a system that truly means something and talk to players with a system of points collect.
How will my system work is easy:
I'll give you a little example:
There is probably at best in Diablo 2 Europe + East Realms 50-60 players left.
With partners, co-workers, maybe we could make those players encounter and fight for an absolute tittle but also with those battles we could set up a ranking that has a meaning.
How would it work, It could take the form of tournaments (I have seen plenty of tournaments going on, but did not see anything between realms going on yet).
Maybe at a very first point I and my co-workers could determinate the approximate tier of the 50-60 players left to rank them. A system of championship with maybe 10 players per tier except maybe for the highest tier that would fight and the 2 or 3 first get promoted to the next tier while the tier above will fight on their turn to determinate the two that will rank up but also the 2 or 3 that will go down. It's a system at stretched flow, which will motivate people to try hard to get to the tier above, but also duelist to not go down.
Some people might have doubts on how it works, but I have a clear idea on how it would happen, but I will need some time to find the good co-workers to make it happen. Also, some peoples maybe would be worried about the ping, but there is Asgard, which is a solution for both East and European players. There are three existing realms on there, and maybe with reversed matchups or by changing the form of the duel that both sides of the players agree it could work (2x First to three duels).
The system would be, basically, after having determinate which tiers are players like this with co-workers or people that are the most accurate / powerful (Piwah as an exemple or JohnSex).
tier 1 : 5-8 players (Consider the number as false, It is a simple exemple) ( 0 up - 2 down )
tier 2 : 8 players ( 2 up - 3 down )
tier 3 : 15 players ( 3 up - 4 down )
tier 4 : 15 players ( 4 up - 5 down )
tier 5 : 20 players ( 5 up - 0 down, if you consider tier 5 as lowest tier).
Every championship per tier will start and end at the same moment, and the number chosen of Up and Down people will be done at the end of those.
This could be done every 2 months with each tier having a topic dedicated to not spam too much.
If I manage to find co-workers, maybe I could find some people that also could offer rewards or an additional goal for some players with forum gold.
It is not the best shape of my project for now, but I wanted to share you my idea, which could really work with everyone's advice, with helping hands and the good guys to work with.
I believe in every single of you to let me know your thoughts, your sincere advices and eventual feedbacks.
Thanks everyone to hear me, it's all for me for today, I am reachable by private message if you ever want to,
Be careful
Best regards,
Ahirun.
