View Full Version : No more "Tourney Leader" accounts

I started a horrible trend that I'd like to fix. I created an account named RGL Leader, because the RGL has 50-60 people in a round-robin tournament. Basically, each person plays 8-9 games, so you have at least 200 games to keep track of. Other tournaments these days don't have nearly as many requirements. A single elimination tournament doesn't have nearly as many games to keep track of, nor nearly as much of a demand. To tell you the truth, I don't even need to use the RGL Leader account so much.
Now you have every tournament with a tourney leader account. This is useless. I know it doesn't take up a tremendous amount of space, but it's still an unnecessary addition. Also, no tournament leader should be anonymous. While it may have been suitable for the RGL, and maybe a 60 person tournament could make use of it, I'd rather people stop making tourney leader accounts entirely. Either use your own account to record wins/losses or start an e-mail address from now on. We should all be responsible for our own tournaments enough to not have user anonymity, and there are so many other ways to keep track. A 16 person tournament doesn't need a seperate user account; in fact, I don't know of any tournament that absolutely needs one. So stop making them.
Tournaments that already made leader accounts can keep them and use them. I ask new tournaments to not follow the trend.

I agree Monkus. Especially when they are random n00b golds

Yeah, I agree, that's why I didn't make any leader account for my tournament. Also, don't forget to add that some noob golds hide behind leader accounts to get people to join their tournament, because they know that otherwise people wouldn't want to join a tournament that they are hosting.

Personally I think you should die. No offence web of course.
Monkus is right, making tourny leader accounts are STUPID. What's the point? Seriously..
Btw, don't even get into "BUT QUATWIZZCK1 J00 HAV3 TR3S 4CCOUNT5!"

You dont get it. I'm saying people brown nose when monkus is around. Like you just did. I'm not saying anything bad about monkus. I wasnt being sarcastic saying, "no offense to monkus of course."
If you read my first post you would see that i agree with you that making tournament leader accounts is stupid, but is it really THAT big of a deal.
Oh no you have "neged" me wizzy. what will i do without my internet gaming reputation!!

No idiot noob, I did not neg you.
And how old are you?
Look dumbass, i never attacked you, but if you're going to then i'm not going to say nothing. you calling me an idiot is somewhat hipocritical considering you could not understand my post, and you said, "Creating tourny accounts are stupid." B E A U TIFUL English. If you're 15 years or older and using internet words like noob and btw, i recommend friends (other than those online.)
You have a picture of a pokemon, you are not that threatening.
If you want to make a reply to this post go right ahead, just know i will not be reading it or replying to it, so you would just be replying to keep your "internet reputation" with your "friends"
Although i will agree that Bob Marley is a god, he is not god. Tom Petty is.
Have a nice day.

Okay, there's no need for the two of you to start flaming the hell out of eachother over something as stupid as this.
Web: If you can find a logical fallacy with my post, other than "why's it such a big deal", then I'd love to hear it. Otherwise, there's no problem with people agreeing with it. I've seen people agree with newer users, and I've seen people call vets idiots. I have no problem with people disagreeing with me; otherwise you'd probably be "feeling my wrath" or whatever the bloody hell it is tyrants do these days.

Honostly though, If people are that lazy to actually check their PM box (Yeah..I should talk.. *sigh*I havent checked it all month, and I have replies :O)
then that's their problem. Meh, Go with the flow people.

plunder
Yes? :D
I agree with monk here, theres no need for a tournament director account with a hidden identity.
I also disapprove of most tournaments where the leader is participating (there are exceptions when I don't have a problem with it), and I've noticed that most of these tournies have their organizer participating. :dry:
