I set the start date for Oct 5th 9PM EST. I will have the edit figured out by this weekend and posted here.


A few things you might want to consider when CEO a tournament game.

1) An ending date posted and a method to determine a winner if it's a draw.
2) Definite, definable rules and how to enforce them if they are broken.
3) Who enforces the rules
4) What happens to bug users and/or cheaters or dupers.
5) How many days/hours do players have to get into the game after start up?
6) What happens if solo, non-signed players start messing with the game?

Those are mostly sysop/host decisions, not the CEO's.

Actually it's up to the hosting sysop to enforce these things, but it's up to the CEO of the tournament to make sure that these things are apparent to everyone and that they get done.

I am working with TBH to address every issue, I came up with the idea for the game so I will set it up and get it going but once the game starts I will not be making any rulings(I wanna play) but all things Big D listed will be addressed b4 game start.

I would like sugestions from the people playing on what you want to see in this game.

I know we want v1 settings(no delays)

also mega rob off

Death count? im thinking kinda high maybe 10?

these are my thoughts what are yours?

Personally I'd rather see it around 25. If you set it less than that it will hinder invasion and you end up with a stalemate because no one wants to moth. Especially considering it's v2 and once your reach the max you are out regardless if you have a pod left or not.

That's not true, you can have the same death setting as v1. It's a setting when you choose tournament mode. Seems most prefer to run games with the new option.

If you're going to continue discussions please move the conversation. This forum is for the actual tournament not all the discussion of settings.

Thanks.


Ok since we can't talk about the game in the game forum(not sure why) please pm me your sugestions on what you would like to see. I want to have the edit picked asap.

I was wondering is this on a v2 server or v1 ?
because no delays can be done in both , while v1 counts deaths
liberally by #SD#'s
and v2 can be set for pod/ship destroied's or #SD#
found in settings in TWGS Game editor page G under Tourney setting.
and tourney R switched ON.

So the question is which version of twgs ?
