Tournament Ideas

Alaska, plz stop.


Everyone please return to the first post on the first page.

That should be our next tourney.

thx u and gbyez

 

Last time you probably had some noob trying to half-assedly organize it. Also I don't recall the last time someone tried something like this other than Risk (Which is also a pretty neat idea to bring back)
I have actually taken time to consider how everything will be handled and I am willing to be the beta-ref for it.

 

Y'know, like Pidge xD

I don't get the point of stupidly complicated FFA's like this. That's p. much why I didn't even enter the last one, because I didn't understand it at all.

 

I like the idea and understand the idea. But its insanely overcomplicated. If people think they can and want do do it, I'm in favour. Though as usual I don't see it working.

 

... it was Pidge that tried to organise it. Or Ataro... one of the two, maybe both. Idk.

 

I think you guys are referring to this thing. It worked pretty well tbh despite the different positions etc, although it was still simple whilst Xali's idea is pretty complicated and kinda confusing and i dont see working :x

Also, what LS said. Idea in first post. Do it.

 

Are you seriously suggesting we only add one thing to an otherwise completely normal tournament? THAT'S NOT HOW WE PITCH IDEAS! Everything should be complicated, pointless and confusing. No-one should even bother entering because they wont understand the 8 pages of rules, or wont be bothered to read them. Why are we even using Pokemon anyway? EVERY OTHER TOURNAMENT USED POKEMON. COME UP WITH SOMETHING ORIGINAL.

Yeah I like the double elimination idea.

 

Getting rid of the Pokemon would barely be original. REMEMBER DUEL ISLAND?

Pokemon on motorcycles, get with the program.

 

If anything, we could bring back those generic tourneys.

Gen I vs II vs III vs IV vs V

I know we haven't had one for B/W and these are always fun.
Let us vets use the pokemon we grew up with and teach these young whippersnappers which generation is really the best one.

That way THIS doesn't keep happening >:|

 

Oh sweet jesus, that actually finished?

I thought it was left to rot and die. My bad.

I was thinking an idea that can be put into a tournament, or used along side other tournament ideas. The can also be used by themselves. I shall explain

a list of mons (maybe 10) are given and people have to choose 6 of them to use for the tournament. This style could be implemented into bracketed tournys

Another idea is have people decide on a team of mons (abilities and items chosen as well) before the tourny starts. They have to use this team through the whole tourny. Im thinking this could be done with Keldeo style tournys. I think it could give trainers with not as many mons a chance.

 

Battle factory was cool

 

Some of my favorite tournaments from the past. Unless we are against reusing ideas.

Simply Stiktastic Tournament - Basically you picked Pokemon from each 3 of the tiers and were randomly rolled 1 of each tier for your battle.

Not Another Generic Tournament - Basic single elimination tournament. Could do double elimination if enough interest

Dream Tournament - Pick a team of any Pokemon you want. All Pokemon have all extra moves. Basic tournament from then on.

GameBoy Tournament - Use GameBoy rules (4 moves per Pokemon) in your battle. Although no one ever likes this. :[

 

This pls. I love GB style.

 

FFA Tourney again plz.

 

So very, very seconded. Or thirded or w/e

 

I'm totally open to reusing idea, though I'd love if it was possible to put a new spin on them somehow.

I'm just very apprehensive about doing anything that's a bracketed system. Bracket tournaments have a severe tendency to wither and die.

 

I like these ideas. Newbs would be able to do it, too.
