Tbh I don't see many players online who would play this, but we can always hope, if not we could do a few a2bs instead :)

Just closed it - No one even around tonight.

No, but after 10 minutes nobody signed up, AG was pretty empty except for a few players, but they don't really play BnG anyway.

I'll ask BnG players what day/time they would prefer, hopefully get more players as I want to make this a Tournament that happens every couple weeks.

In better days there was a lot of people, much less now, how about this option - when someone hosts a tournament, he can add to its rules "Games might be played within 1-5 days term"?

In theory it's an amazing idea :)

It works especially well in Final/Bronze, but don't see it working so well in early stages of a Tournament, due to timezones and low activity.

On the other hand, I thought Tournaments were supposed to be live events, which start and play continously until there is a winner?

It's good to have the option to keep a Tournament open for a while for the Final games to finish in the case of players having to leave or having technical difficulties, but personally speaking I wouldn't like players to take advantage of this or get set in a comfort zone of laziness.

Also, i'd love to be able to open signups as soon as the Tournament is created(even up to 1-2 weeks in advance), but the chances of players actually turning up aren't very good :(


I'd definitely do it, if everyone was happy with it, and actually put effort into showing up :)

Sure they were, but time goes, changes happens. Would you like to move a huge pallet manually these days?  ;D

Why changing tournament structure and add delayed matches?
Don't we already have cups for that?

Indeed, great idea if community was buzzing though.

No need to change anything. Hoster just can state that and none would riot, i think.
