[QUOTE="shutyertrap, post: 192429, member: 134"] First off, welcome to the forum. Now then, too many rules? Maybe you'd like to see the 3 pages of rules the league I play in has! there's a whole section on tilts vs slam tilts. Let me break it down for you. We have no way of running a tournament like FarSight does, as we can't set up within the game an actual tournament. So right off the bat, we are asking people to play on the honor system. All we are asking this time around is for people to only play each table twice, not to grind for a score. That version of a tournament is readily available from FarSight, so why would we do our own? This is also our first attempt at this. There are going to be kinks that need working out. How 'bout giving it a chance? You wanna know why it starts at 10am PST? Because that's my time zone and I'm running this thing. You'll notice I also put it as -8 GMT. I'm more than well aware this game is global, but I can't possibly know everyone else's time zone. You know who else posts times like that? FarSight when they run a tourney. And guess what time zone they are in? I'm not a computer program running this, so like it or not, things are going to run when they are convenient for me. News flash, registration and score posting are NOT going to be done via a thread on this forum. Why? Because some players aren't members of this forum. I've been advertising this on the @BlahCade Twitter account too. Where you are getting "a different thread to ask someone to post the word of the day and prove their score, it's a different thread to point out that anyone on a pc could cheat and still prove their score" I don't know. I'm not saying this isn't going to be a bit messy, but if you have a different solution, speak up. Or maybe this tourney isn't for you? I don't know. If you don't like the way I'm trying to run it, don't play. If you have a problem with being asked to only play a certain number of times, within a 12 hour window, and to be honest, well I don't know what to tell you. I hope you do give it a chance and play. I hope you see I'm trying to make this as fare as possible for everyone. All I ask is you recognize the limitations we are up against running something over the internet as opposed to in person or even via Twitch. [/QUOTE]
