Ok, I'm gonna collect ideas for the next update of Cups, since:
Tourney = Cup without groups stage
So I'll release TUS tourneys along with Cups v1.1 (Using cups engine to handle tourneys)
Long time I didn't update anything for cups, so I put this in announcements to collect everything from anyone around.
I'll put the accepted ideas in this first post. So you can check this post every once in a while.
This is the TUS tourneys concept:
*A mod will submit his tourney, giving a starting time.
*Just like a cup, that tourney receives a page of its own.
*At the tourney signups time, it gets open. But instead of a mod in a channel, asking for people to PM him/her the info about them, mod simply gives that tourney page to people. People can click the famous "join" button of the tourney and signup. This way, mods doesn't have to tell the list of people who have registered so far. People check that tourney page to see who has registered. No one can fake anyone.
*Mods will choose the pairing system of the tourney. So basically no cheating mods.
*Mods will be available till the end of the tourney just to guide, handle complaints and proceeding People to the next stages. (people will report their replays right after they won)
Please keep every idea in this thread.
p.s, should we make cups and tourneys season based?
Rating a moderator of a cup/tournament/challenge should be available only for people who take part in the actual event and it ended for them (they are eliminated or win medal/cup). Rating should be kept and an average should be shown in the moderators profile OR on a separate statistics page for the cups/tournaments/challenges.

Not the cups, but the tournaments should be season based and like this (in my opinion): TUS Staff can host the tournaments, one tournament every week (maybe this could change but only because of the different time zones), every month is one season, meaning we either have 4 or 5 tourneys in one season. The scheme should change in each tourney, based on a poll. Starting with the classic schemes, if some people want a new scheme into the roster, they can "nominate" it and people vote. :)
maybe add rating of cups in each scheme ? elite rating, t17 rting, hyst rating ?
Could you possibly please try to avoid having Tournaments around the same time as the weekly a2b Tournaments I host?
You could use tourney system to host a2b tourneys?
MI, can u made tourneys and cups system 2vs2 or clanner ?)

I could, but prefer doing it my way, some people that play are not registered at TuS, and refuse to register here.
Fair enough. I know who he is though :)
*auto popup reminder when they come to the site for people who are late for tourney.

Also, you HAVE TO include something for the cups that lists ALL the games you have to play in which cups and the deadline for them, if there is any.
seeding cups/tournys so that top players dont play each other the final, this would be quite important if to have seasonal cups or tournys
I think Cups should be disabled at all. and tourneys added. the "groups stage" part of cups is kinda messed up.
imo, once tus will do only tourneys, it'll be much easier, understandable, and many more ppl will participate.
deadline idea is great, i think when u log in into tus, and you'r participating any tourney, it should be highlighted (your next oponent + deadline) under "my panel" or somthing similar.

For me is very important to hang out with Megane Fox :D :D :D (big OT XD )
well 3vs.3 ??
that would be quite sucky,it's hard to arrange even a 1vs.1 cup match,what about a 3vs.3 ? :-[
but if u mean 3vs.3 tourneys...that doesen't sounds that bad ::)
maybe good idea made clanner-cups?
when start tus tourneys ?)
Perhaps you should get your clan mates to play their cups more quickly first, Dmitry ;)

wow so simple idea, but effective... nice MI !
What about "Double-elimination" system of tournament.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double-elimination_tournament
I mean, add this like alternative for olympic system.
I think it's more fun than just a Shootout, coz this system take not more time and evry player have 1 more chance ;)
Jakka already requested that mate and it is already in TUS2.
TUS2, where are you!
heh less than 24 hours :)
cool :)
nice! :D
I will trying to be good tester xD
TUSY WUSY TWO where are u
we've got some work to do now
TUSY WUSY TWO we need some help from u now
come on TUSY TWO i see u
pretending you've got a sliver
you're not foolin' me 'cause i can see
the way u shake and shiver
u know we got a mystery to solve
so TUSY TWO get ready for your act
don't hold back 'cause TUSY TWO
when u come thru you're gonna have your self
a TUSY snack that's a fact
TUS WUSY TWO here are you
you're ready and you're willin'
wtf lol
Looks like avi wants a TUSY snack
You know it is ti-u-es right? 8)
I always pronounce it as "TWOS" :D
Think it would be possible to allow tourneys to count for any specific league?
a TUS classic tourney would count toward classic standings
a TEL tourney would count towards TEL standings
etc.
also ideally they would be easy to create (no mod approval needed) so that they can pop up at any time, and people can freely advertise in #AG to fill up to a preferred # (4 players/8 players being the most common). what do you think? I remember this type of feature being pretty popular back in the day. It's a nice added spice vs simply asking for 1 opponent. I think it could catch on.
welcome thoughts / ideas / suggestions :)
