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?
