I was on the worst team last time and we played for about 40 mins total.
And since there is NOTHING that has to be prepared beforehand to get this to work, why is the timing of this idea such an issue?
If you are stuck on a bad team, you get to play 2 rounds: warmup and round one, that is how it has been for the past 2 years. Rydell’s system means everyone gets to play at least 3 rounds. Who loses there?
What are you talking about?
Except for last LAN which Rydell ran,
Round 1 = 30 mins of warmup
Round 2 = 1v1 and 1v1 for 30 mins
Round 3 = Winners vs winners and losers vs losers
Everyone played all 3 rounds.
Thats how it was run for 3 tournaments and it worked fine. Nobody is left out ‘assuming’ there are 4 teams.
Speaking of that, if we have 24 people we can still do 4 teams of 6, if we have 28 we can do 4 teams of 7. etc…
