Tournament for unexperienced Players - Feedback Needed!

Closed Topic Start new topic
# 1fateat Nov 6 2009, 16:24 PM
Hello everyone, I'd like to officially start planning a noob tournament. I have created this topic to gauge interest on this tournament. This would be open to all "new players" (Meth tongue.gif ) and mod players who would like to try their hand at officials without running into uberpros (like Gav73). So anyone who is not an experienced official player, please post your interest here.

Other members of the community, I am having a hard time trying to decide if the player is too good to be in this tournament. I could really use feedback on a fair way to decide who can play, and who can't. Also if any of you guys want to put in a small bit of effort, I would like to get the word out about this tournament to new players via the CCG lobby, so please if you find someone that might be interested, direct them to the GR site, and this topic in general.

Thanks for all your help!

I'm not sure why undercover pros would sign up just to bash new players, but I was thinking of having interested players post replays for my review. I guess with this method the judgement of who can play, and who can't would be up to me. But I don't really like this possibility, I was hoping someone else might have a better idea.

Seriously, there are hardly any around (yet). That's why your suggestion won't work.

Cleriker is actually not that level fateat is looking for. Rather the level of Caspers or ThEObSeRvEr for instance. Isn't that right, fateat?

Yeah Hater that is the level I am looking for. Maybe I can recruit the FORCE clan to play, they are always online and seem to be eager.

Fat man, are u trying to raise activity or just desparate? I know a handful of 'newbs' who are new to td, but what is the point of getting these guys to participate in a tournament?

[GxA] clan (hackers)
snipershotkill
sledneck (has aceton)
legion (hacker)
[wwk] deadline
[wwk] vegeta
DSparks (has aceton)
Caspers007
there are quite a few random lobby guys with less than 20 wins on their accounts that switch accounts constantly so i don't know who they are, could be anyone. If you are looking for lowest of the low then just sit in the lobby for a whole day and invite everyone that makes a td game.

Thanks for you input.
I think some of the guys you mentioned might work, others might be a little too good.

I am not getting desperate at all, I noticed not many new members participate in tournaments, most of the players in the tournaments are at a high skill level. The point of getting these newer guys a tournament to play in, is so they can participate in a tournament that is more on their level!! Additionally it will definitely make them better players, and maybe get some mod guys to play official every now and again.
So basically, I can provide a tournament to members who might not otherwise participate, get new players to progress and develop faster. Not to mention it will be fun!! We can help them get aceton and a few other things they will need, and presto they have the tools to play cw!! This all leads to more activity on CCG and a better crop of players to play against. There is really no downfall to this tournament at all in my mind.

Sounds like there is some interest here. Russty and Caspers get some of your buddies to sign up for GR and post their interest here. Once I get enough newer players to show interest, I will officially make the apply for tournament here topic, this is where you would submit a replay.

Caspers I have a mentor on here, so this idea doesn't really work. A lot of the mentees are already cw level players.
