View Full Version : Hit List Tournament

This is an idea I came up with a while back, and up until now I never really thought about actually holding it.

The Way it Works:

The Hitlist Tournament is probably different from any other type of TAO tournament that has ever been held. It's not a tournament of elimination, like most. Nobody gets eliminated. Here's how it works:


After that is done, we should have a list of people, amount still undecided. You can all pick how many. Based on the players skill level, they are worth a certain amount of points. For example: Bottle is very good, if he is beaten, you get Fifty points. But say you beat someone like Excalibur, you get three points.
For two weeks you try to hunt down and find as many people on the list as you can, and beat them. You will have to post a screen shot, and based on who you beat, points will be awarded to you.
If you are a target (One of the people on the list, who is being hunted for points), you cannot refuse a game, unless you have a legit excuse. Like having to leave for work. And if you do leave, you have to give that person a game asap.
You are allowed to play the same person only three times. Each time, the amount of points you gain from beating them is cut in half.
ANY formation you want.



Rules still undecided:

These are still some factors of the tournament that I have not yet figured out how they should work. Based on the opinions given, I'll add them in or not.


Gold only or greys included?
How many targets on the hitlist?
How many participants allowed?


Give me output on those, I'll change them accordingly.


Date:

One thing is for sure, this will not be held unil AFTER the Legends tournament, so expect to be waiting sometime.


That's about it. Expect some changes to the rules over the course of the next few days. If I can, I'll try to get DR to give a prize to the winner.

Sounds awesome, ach. I'd love to have that happen.

- Drop units? ("ANY formation you want" sounds like yes, but then it might be harder to "hit" people who have effectively incorporated drops into their formations... meh. Whatever.)
- If greys are allowed, would they get to face the gold targets on even footing?
- If so, could golds choose to play other golds with grey units?
- Could there be grey targets, and if so, would everybody play them using grey units?
Seems like mixing greys and golds wouldn't be very simple. I think it would be great if you could figure out an easy way to do it, it's just that I can't see one so far.

If it is gold-only... I would say maybe 10 golds who play very frequently (on rev would be useful), and if a lot of people express interest, then up the number accordingly.

sounds very cool. greys shud b allowed and if they beat some 1 their points shud b more if u beat them as a grey then as a gold but only 1 account per person either u start grey or gold.

Hmm... Sounds fun, I'll be a target as a gold on rev and as a grey elsewhere if you like. :)

I say greys included, manly because if it was all gold I can't participate. :) That's not to say I will... I realized yesterday my computer ISN'T 100% fixed... I still disconect occasionaly on TAO. But I'll try. ;)

I think there should be a pretty good number of people on the hit list. More than the number hunters at least. If there aren't many people on the hitlist, the same people will be getting called out alot...



Would this all get limited to one server? I think that'd be better than it spread through all the servers.



And what about the hitlist? They don't really get anything though do they? Then again, I guess they can't really get anything, their main point is just to get called out, and play the hunters, right?

Another point to be decided:

How much should the points be out of? I say fifty.

Everyone, I need to know these, I need all your opinions.

-Drops or not?

-Gold only?

I think you should do them seperatly and no drops. Also I think they should do one turtle match, one freestyle, and one grey kind of like the revalations tryouts and best of 3 win.

i say drops, i mean if u earned them, then u should be able to use them right?
hmm...i think greys should be included, since some r really good, and maybe some r just broke, and cant get a gold.....

Ya we can do drops and somehow you can do them togather but if you do them at the same time it might get confusing.

Nah. I'm not worth 50 points. I've lost my last 6 gold games.

I'll see if I can make it onto the hitlist. I have a mid-term break coming up so then would be good.
