GTAF Gang Olympics Online Tournament

[Girish]

If you get knocked out then you lose, if you stay in the final three then you get points

 

1st gets 25

2nd gets 20

3rd gets 15

4th gets 0

5th gets 0

etc...

etc...!!?

 

If there are 10 gangs, those who are placed from 4th to 10th get 0 points, right? Does that even make sense? What's the point in having points then if only the first three are going to get them? You might as well just keep it to ranks rather than points.

And when we do the next event. like the map making or the scripting

 

1st will get (points)

2nd will get (points)

and 3rd (will get points)

the rest will get 0

 

...?

EDIT: Because it is Olympics in the Olympics do you see 4th getting any medal or anything?

I think I see what you mean, If your first in one match, you get 30 points, but last in another, you get 0, so the person who has the most points after everything finishes wins?

 

Can't we just say whoever wins the most is the winner and if there is a draw, they take each other on in a tiebreaker? Much easier.

Exactly. If they aren't getting any points, what the use of having points in the first place? Why not just keep it to ranks? Or maybe medals, just like in the Olympics? Gold, Silver and Bronze for the first three and only subsequent ranks for the rest.

That is a screenie of how the point system worked on the other forum

This topic sucks.

 

I blame a noticeable lack of Em's awesome ego. Maybe you shouldn't have been so quick to try and shoo him from the last topic.

 

On a serious note, I'm sorry that you had an idea that didn't take off, only to have someone basically poach the (completely unoriginal) idea and have it be more successful. I mean there's no reason there can't be more than one tourney, but you can't make people sign up for this one, just like you can't make this tournament more official than someone else's "official" tournament. Really, unless and until you get someone to actually sign up to play in it, most of this discussion is moot.

 

That said, it's still good to see people trying to encourage activity and interest, even if it doesn't work.

Koik, this is getting childish. Please stop fighting over who's to run a tournament. I honestly don't mind who runs the tournament, but you've got admit, the other one is better organised. Yours lacked some fervour, that's all.

 

 

[EDIT] Sweets: This idea has been tried a few times before, but never seems to take off.

rv, I am done with them, let them run their silly tournament and i'll run my silly tournament, the fight was going nowhere and now it is done, no point in continuing.

[Lochie_old]

There was no fight, it was just you complaining. Maybe you should listen to what others actually have to say?

[Koik]

Yup Lochie, my mistake

 

 

[Berkley]

I agree what Sweets said, this is pointless.

Just another useless thread in GTAF. I don't see why you couldn;t have just continued in the other thread. But I have an incling why this thread was created, someone maybe felt threatened.
