hey...
Ive already thought of the multies that people will try to use....Thats defeated pretty ez cuz they all have to register before march 1st, and theres several reasons for that:
- All entries are LOCKED after March 1, 2005. I wont allow any late entries for ANY reason after that date.
- I will keep a very detailed list of everyone that has entered the tournament.
- I have a Mod/Staff friend that will be on hand. When I get the list...he will crosscheck it inside the zone and catch anyone tryin to multi
So if someone is using a multi..I WILL FIND THEM.
Im sure for $200 US.....you will find a way to get yer money if you win and dont have paypal...im not very worried about that :P
Now as you can see that Ive already thought this through. Ive been planning this for the last 3 months, so if you have anymore concerns I'll be glad to answer them for ya.
TW-Legacy is real, and Im gonna get <ER>'s and some Ops to come on board with me on this.....so signup now and be a part of it!
Its free and doesnt cost you a thing AND you have a chance to win $$ for playing the game...what do you have to lose?

Huh? "create a friendly competition" People already have fits over stupid elim games, it is the most flame-ridden and obnoxious arena in the TW. So how exactly is your method to throw $$$ to it going to "create a friendly competition". My opinion is that it will have the opposite effect.
If this is legitimate, then how about you bond the money to a third party now? I'm sure the Dock would be willing to hold the money while things are being established. This would go very far in resting any concerns that people might have. Why not offer $100 to the winner and donate the other $100 in the winners name to the TW server fund?
Your simple rules are too simple and don't appear to be well thought out. As such, your offer is not being taken as all that serious. For example, how are you going to handle the inevitable 'he eats' complaints? How are you going to handle any collusion between players?
Instead of being flippant towards people who ask questions, perhaps it would come across better if you were a little nicer. Asking someone to sign up for something that they will end up spending time on isn't 'free'. You should understand that they are investing their time and effort and will naturally be dubious about new things, especially new things that include 'no obligation and a chance to win money'.

Ephemeral....
yer concerns are warrented and well thought out....However Ive thought of those too
- If I see the need to "Bond" the money to a 3rd party, I will...I have no worries with that. This is my show...and I want to award the winner myself. Im sure you understand
- Handle the "he eats" complaints? I will handle them like I handle those comments in elim..."GG" pure and simple. People lag..thats part fo the game, but its not gonna be a reason for me to DQ someone
- Im doing this out of sheer fun....Im getting signups left and right. However, I understood when I started this that people would be a bit reserved..thats all good, but they are gonna miss out They wont be as reserved in July when I run it again
- Im flippent to people who str8 out called my idea a crock of shit...thats an insult without merit and I will treat it as such. Dont like it? Live with it.
- Players will be chosen at random. If they have collusion then o well...they shouldnt play. Im not gonna let some winey players prevent me from moving forward.
I understand the idea is a little revolutionary, but its gonna happen on March 10, 2005 and I look forward to kicking this off with a bang. As for the TW server fund? Thats a good idea for next round, but this round im sticking to my format.
Ive been planning this for months, and its pretty well thought out. Yer pretty arrogent to sit there and tell me otherwise without asking me first.
Simple is just that....SIMPLE. I personally dont see the issue, but to each his own I guess.

Well it seems to be a nice competition but i think the rules need to be more specific... for example:
How will you handle lagcheaters ( you cant oversee other persons lag )
How will you oversee all matches... i maen it must be official and i guess there are lots of ways to fraud a screenshot...
How will you decide the schedule willl it be decided by you or by both players...
How can you dispose of staff for oversseing 100 accounts for a tournament in such a few time...
How are you able to get the money to all the 17 year or less people that will play...
well i think there are los of other issues you havent foreseen...
Either way GOOD LUCK with the tournament hope all ends up well and that people have a lot of fun playing it!
I want that prize :greedy:A kiss is a rosy dot over the 'i' of loving.

You can connect your bank account to a paypal account, it takes a while though. It isn't really gambling Zeus, in real tournaments you can win cash or prizes but I agree this is kinda out there. I think you should have talked with staff and entrusted the money with upper staff and have them work on this.Last edited by Kolar; 01-24-2005, 06:52 PM.

- That is a good question, however I think excessive lag will be spotted and dealt with accordingly if the need arises.
- I have a staff of friends that will oversee the games with me. This is why i broke it up over 3 seperate days to handle the load. Eliminations on the 10th, Semi Finals on the 20th, and finals on the 25th.
- Once I have the list on March 1, I will have a general idea when to hold the games. I will impose the tournament starting time at a time that I feel most players will be able to make. If they cant make it, then there's not much I can do.
- Dispose of staff? I stated that I have a friend that is a mod/staff member. One of the reasons I have a cuttoff date of March 1 is so he can check the list for any double entries...IE multies, people registered under 2 names..etc. Pretty ez to prevent multis this way.
- Well there's other ways other then Paypal...such as western union wire transfers. It doesnt require that I have the person address, just their name and what city/country they live in. Believe me, for $200 US...People will find a way to get the $$. If I have to...I will have it bonded to Dock> or another sys op.
Anymore questions? Send em here
