    1. why don't you or someone else create a discussion thread for a monthly tournament among your own, not for round sums, but just for free?

    2. 1x1 games are less popular than 4x4 and global

    3. most players in the present time have no desire to spend time and effort on the 2007 game to somehow show that he is the coolest of all 1x1 and do not think that this will change and new players will appear in abundance 1x1

    4. search for 1x1 games in the global

    5. there are a bunch of other alternative games and after so many years, even those who have played faf for a long time will leave and you will feel loneliness even more here

    6. What does Morax have to do with it?

      1. This is a solution if you assume that people simply play for fun. Yet if they simply played for fun then there would be no need for tournaments and people would just be online to play. They are not. This solution accomplishes nothing. Tournaments only have value based on either the real monetary value or system built around it.

      2. The people good at 1v1 are also the people good at 4v4, not having the people for 1v1 means you have even less competent players around for high level teamgames. Historically a teamgame tournament has never been as competitive as 1v1 tournaments because if you allow self-organization, there will be at best 3 teams that are competitive.

      3. This is just an admittance of failure, at which point this community is dead and doomed to casual weekend mediocrity.

      4. Doesn't change anything he's talking about.

      5. Then where are the new people? There are two strategies: either FAF increases the volume of water going into the filter or it patches the leaks as much as it can. If it does neither out of apathy, then the game dies.

      6. lol

        just if morax really has no time for tournament affairs, then delegate this activity to someone?

          It's his job to delegate his responsibilities if he can't do them. Beyond that, he campaigned on the premise that high level tournaments had too much focus anyway. This stuff is just the natural conclusion of that.

            so he didn't delegate them for the duration of his employment?

              If the game isn't fun enough to play without making new events each month then just stop playing it. Why do work to encourage people to play a game that they don't find fun anyway? Who benefits from having people spend their time playing?

                Because people make decisions at the margin. The point is to push the margin in the direction of FAF rather than some other game.

                Also I benefit because I get an easier time finding games when I want to play.

                  I do not know how English speakers are now, we (ru) always have small tournaments and FFA events, with small prizes from streamers, there is always a PR company for events and attracting both new and famous players. We often have problems with permissions...

                    it's just a well-established opinion that we are drowning for the popularization of global and custom games, and the rest for 1x1

                      I think it will be relevant to communicate with those who can influence the situation and those who are participants in this situation. Instead of arguing with a lover of Gap and other garbage. As Petrik said, "sitting under a stone." Sorry Robustness, if there are prospects for you in view of 40 gappers with a 500 rating that will leave in a day than some 2400 player, then our dispute and dialogue is over.No one relies on streamers for create pro tournaments, it's their choice. But at the very least, faf should promote high-quality games for the best of the best and help keep the competitive spirit alive (I cant mean only value tourney) . Unfortunately, the rivalry is gone, and only the spirit remains. I want to back at least 2-3 years, where I can find match on 2100, instead OF NOTHING.

                        so decide, "the rivalry is gone" or Morax is to blame for this and you want to return the way it was under the ftx...

                          a typical whiner...

                          when I want to do something better, I take it into my own hands and do what with gap, what with maps, what with creating tutorials and materials on which dozens of new cartographers of a good level have appeared

                            All i see is just a random high level dude crying since his game friends left him while trying to blame unrelated guy. As cringe as it is he even wants to get cash and more shiny stuff to his nickname.

                              Or maybe he just wants to play a fucking game? Instead of having 10h q times.

                                Do you think he is the only one that cant find a game? 4v4s are pretty popular and actually playable even for 2.4k.

                                  Well, he wants to enjoy 1v1 not 4v4.

                                      Im actually being fucking blind on his arrogant attitude and fucking overwhelming selfesteem as 2276 gyy who thinks he is worth more than 40 fucking players. He is cancer to our nontoxic community

                                        Is there more we could do to encourage new(er) or stagnant players to get up to a 2k level? I almost always hear the remaining 2k+ players talk about how many of the older ones are either completely gone or mostly inactive, but I never really hear about decent attempts to get existing players up to the higher levels. Mostly just see gatekeeping around the 2k level and then moaning about how there are no 2ks.

                                          I mean to produce 2k you need a whole bunch of free time and motivation. And also not that easy to even get to 2k even if you have free time and motivation.
