?go tourny

[Vys]

I've been thinking recently about how to get elim popular again...I've came up with one idea. That is to remove ?go tourny. Each time i go to play ?go tourny there is like 6 people playing and they are all newbs. Also removing this arena, ?go tournament could be hosted once a week/2 weeks like it used to, ?go tournament was probably the most favourite and fun event people played. Every good player would come to play this, it was like a big battle to see who's number #1.
Also removing ?go javs and ?go tourny would bring back ?go belimbeta, can we just try this idea for a month and lets see if the elims get more popular?

I already see significant improvement in the popularity of the elims, and I don't think this would please the ?go tourny faithfuls one bit. Asking to shut down ?go javs is a huge step in and of itself - one that I'm still contemplating.

Im pleased with tourny, but on the other hand I don't care for .?go javs that much. It takes away from belim, and javduel. You can take ?go javs away for a bit and see how it influences everything else. I mean you can always put it back you know!

I like go javs better then go belim i play javs purely for fun, not to be competitive.

and now you can remain doing that in the belimbeta. you turn off the !play feature and you just stay in the ?go javs base while the rest who want to play elim are in the other base.

in theory yes, but every time a game started id be all by myself again until someone dies. So i much prefer ?go javs.

so youre upset because you no longer have other people to be non competitive with?

I say we get rid of all the automated events (tourny, duel, etc.) aside from elim and baseelim.

These events were concieved when we had something like twice as many players as we have now. We have too many choices for people which results in shittier gameplay for everyone.

And in my opinion, if you got rid of ?go javs, more people would be pissed than if you got rid of ?go tourny.

That's just my two cents though, and who the hell am I.

Edit: automated included barwarp and streaks in ?go javs. Make the lazy bastards fly into the base because, for some reason, barwarp make ?go javs way more popular than it was.

while it's a lame excuse, the fact that he's upset he can't play uncompetitively is just as valid as the excuse everyone else is putting forth : that they're upset because they can't find people to play competitvely with.

it's a game, which ought to be played for fun, but given the dedication of the decreasing population, i think more and more people are playing it to be competitive. Doesn't change the fact that you can play virtually any arena in a non-competitive fashion and still have fun.

I for one am glad i can play casually in pub, ?go javs, and now in the elimbetas. I definitely wouldn't want to play javduel and wbduel all the time. There fun, but so is goofing off and not worrying about how many deaths you have.

I think way too many people are complaining about the "lack" of competition in TW. Well, I don't see many people with 10:1 ratios, so you can't be that good. And you shouldn't expect to not have people who suck, not everyone can pick up this game in a month and compete with people who've been playing half a decade, and not everyone wants to play it competitively.

Maybe we don't have to remove tourny.

Another idea is to move the days in which tourny is active. Assuming that TW's population reaches its peaks during the weekend, the activity of tourny at this time diverts players away from other arenas. It could then be argued that if tourny became a Wednesday/Thursday thing for example, then more players would play elim/belim (Or the new beta arenas when they come soon) during the weekend, as well as weekend events later on at night. I think it may put more value to weekend events, as there is something that varies from other ordinary zone activities (elim, duel, twd).

Again, it's just an idea, just throwing it out there.

I like this. Healthy medium.

This or make it one day a week instead of three, since it isn't very popular anymore. Putting it on a low population day could very well spell the end of tourny, though there might not be too many people to object to this.

All for removing tourny and any bots still in ?go javs

[Hurricane]

REMOVE tourny...
REMOVE Duel...
Bring back BASEELIM AND ELIM WITH RANK STATS


REINTRODUCE DUEL with a bot idea like ?go duel in chaos zone... u go into a box and the bot warps u and ur player to a duel arena...


POP is dieing... as people said tourny etc.. was all introduced when pop was 2x as much as it is... People leave the game because hosting is automated and not personable anymore.


Remember back in the days u wanted to try to win a tournament or javtourny to get your name in an advert across the zone.. I DO..

DOWN WITH TOURNY DOWN WITH AUTOMATION
