Default Re: Mega-Dueling Tournament - Rules, Settings, Check List, and Sign Ups

Hmm... why do you want to go with different nations anyway? It'd be more fair to use same nation. X vs X, ex. Ashdod vs Ashdod. Nation for each round could be random. It's quite easy to clone nation with a mod afaik.

Also - why eliminate defeated players? Let's do it like in normal tournaments in other games [I think MtG uses that] - first round can be random. Next round people with 1 victory play against random opponent with 1 victory, those with 0 play against 0. Repeat every round, winner is the one with highest score at the end. You can always use that as preliminary sorting [3-4 rounds?] and play elimination ladder later to determine winner.

It's more fair? but is it more fun?- Is it more interesting?

Currently, This is kinda like the free all style fights, you know, like UFC and MMA. It helps answer not whose the best player neto but who is most deadly when wielding nation X. There's close corelation between the two but they're not neccerily the same answer.
