Tourney seems a bit unclear , are you aiming for a high rated setons or a lower one ? is it 2v2 or 4v4 ? can i just stack a team with tagada yudi farms ? How is the tourney gonna be balanced if there are 5 teams >1800 and the other 5 teams under <1700.
https://forum.faforever.com/topic/3523/setons-wars-tournament here you have an example of a nice balanced 4v4 seton tourney might want to give it a look or contact me in Discord if u need help with the setup. -
@insidiousnoob It will be both Doni, I will give reconsideration later, but for now I need a list who's going to play in the tourney to better apply the rules. No point making decisions with only 3 players signed up to play. And no you are banned from the tourney doni (jk). As far as teams I think that's pretty self explanatory, I even put a picture there to mark up the player positions lol but just for you I will write it in the post. Traditional setons is played 4v4.

@nuggets I've seen how you and Deli play don't give me any excuses. You are capable gentlemen.

Wdym Traditional Setons is played 4v4? We actually had a 2v2 Setons tournament not too long ago , It’s a bit much to assume everyone will understand your format just from a map picture. A well-structured and balanced tourney really helps attract players to sign up.
The link I shared earlier has a great example of a balanced 4v4 Setons tourney format that might be helpful to check out if you're aiming for a clear and organized setup.
-
What do you mean you wait for people to sign up? I think you barely will get signups with these registration rules
-
-
Well considering this is almost an exact copy of last years tournament thread, I would say yes, everyone who read it assumed it was a 4v4 because Setons is traditionally played 4v4 and has been for a decade. You are the only person who pointed it out till now.
-
There are some changes to come as far as the rules. We need the player signups. We will most likely go with captains.
-
This tournament since its yearly is most likely aimed at seasoned players even more if we go the captain route because the captains will choose those who know how to play most likely and possibly this will even out the balance. I can't make captains if I don't know who the captains are kappa.
You are more than welcome to message me on discord, if you have any recommendations.

@nuggets I think, because it's early posted? I did this on purpose, hopefully to mitigate absenteeism and to give time to those who need to plan it out if they are going to make it that day.

sign me up
-
make it captain pick and it will be way easier for everyone, you will have 2x more sign ups because nobody wants to DM people and ask 'u know wanna team or no?'
-
@vindex Yeah its changed now.

If you want to use Double elimination then 5 teams is a terrible number. One team will get a bye 1st round. Better to either have a limit of 4 teams and keep using double elimination or use other tournament format eg. Swiss Style or some Swiss Style adjusted one.
If you assume decently balanced teams then Swiss Style will also produce more (decent quality) games.
