Why not a non Vs tourney? More of a team, scenario based, tourney with a points system?

select a team of maybe five characters, the host will have a series of tasks to accomplish:

- save the girl, defeat an enemy, survive against an invasion, inifiltrate the pentagon, defeat hostage takers with no loss of life, whatever...

limit of one submission post per scenario, all sent to the host, all posted by host at same time, to deter copying of ideas.

The points will be awarded depending on judges votes on plausability, style, time taken, collateral damage, damage taken by team, whatever.

first - ten points
second - eight
third - seven
etc, etc...depending on number of entrants.

Have five to ten rounds of varied tasks, winner is the poster with the highest score at the end.

Standard gear, limited prep [planning only, no tech creation or obscure object collection], characters assumed to play nice with each other

Late submissions can cause point deductions or round by round DQs to keep things moving in a timely fashion.


Just of the top of my head. I would be interested in something like this, but don't have time to host. At one post per round/task I may be able to compete.

I know a few people have been tossing ideas around like that.

I'd really, really like to see it in action.

The idea is sound. But you'd never get enough people to participate in it. We have yet to fill most of the KMC belts and no one seems to want any of smurph on these belt matches. Maybe I should ban smurph from these belt matches ? stick out tongue

Digi, Ambient/Roldz deserves some respect based on the art he did for one of the tournaments.

I mean, look at this Iron Man/Spot combo he drew for me:

I remember those, and you're right, he deserves mad props.

I'm going to have to figure this out, because this thread now exists in a forum where I can't edit threads freely.

erm

Either way, I'll get it added. If you can find others, I'll add them too.

As I recall, the limits for the "body" pick were fairly restrictive. Ya'll were just looking for the most reliable bricks at that level. And there's only so many.

Also, Black Knight is pimp. The Ebony Blade is f-ing legit. Meh on the rest of Newjak's amalgam though. wink

The Ebony Blade was pretty awesome smile

At one point I wanted to do a Black Knight respect thread but I lost all the scans for him.

And yeah if I had my choice of remaking that amaglam and strategy I would have have wanted to pick a super speedster with really good reaction times.

It also never made much sense to me that Robot Body could have all their powers turned back on. Seemed like kind of a loophole. I mean technically should someone be able to draft a mutant and if they can activate their X-Gene through genetic would that allow them to gain their powers as well?

You referring to leo with turning on DHII? I don't remember that tourney super-well. I didn't host or participate...hell, I don't think I even judged that one much. But I thought the right person ended up winning that particular tourney (with no offense to Blair...who I thought was probably the only amalgam that could have potentially beaten Scoob).

At one time I could've helped with a BK thread. I had some of my own scans from an aborted tourney plan. Alas, none still saved.

I just remembered a moment on Delph's board from that tourney we had there. My team had - among others - Iron Spidey, and we were facing Blair and Darkcrawler. DC challenged me on something Spidey-related - it was a specific use of spider-sense - and I decided to jump into it with him. It was me ignoring strategy to just go at it on Spidey with someone who knew him as well - or probably better, actually - than I did. It was amazingly fun, and probably not productive to my team. But it stuck out to me, because I can't fathom two people having more comprehensive knowledge about Pete, so the poetry of that debate was pretty cool to me.

You pick who you know, so there's some fanboy tendencies in any tourney. But picking Spidey (twice) is probably the only character where I let rationality give way to a fan crush. Others - like Minion, for example - were much more strategy-driven. Except delph's massive round robin tourney where we could redraft each round. I went nuts with fan crushes there, knowing it wouldn't hurt me long-term when I redrafted for the playoffs. Optimus Prime was a personal favorite of mine in that one.

...

Anyway, did I ever add those pics? I don't think I did. I will sometime soon.

Way to not be a team player Digi mad

But yeah generally speaking you shouldn't let the fanboy crush dictate how you debate.

But having intimate knowledge of someone is also helpful. It needs to be a healthy balance.

Indeed. But that match is probably the only time I went completely off script, so to speak. I was usually pretty good about staying objective in my approach. And hell, the 2nd time I had Pete, it was my lone tourney win. So it's not like I sacrificed strategy. As solo picks go, he's as good as anyone at low meta, and better than most. He was made nigh-useless in our matches in Delph's tourney, but that's because the prep, locations, and stuff was allowed made the other nonsense way more important (like Gideon copying GL rings and infinite-mass boulders and other such ridiculousness).

That's how a lot of prep tournaments go. You can have one of the most powerful characters allowed but if they don't stack into some Galactic busting combo you're screwed.

I updated a LOT of stuff on page 1 of this thread today. Including...

- New formatting to the OP. Minor formatting to all posts.

- Updated list of entrants and winners.

- Updated the tourney list to include curryman's tourney that Id won.

- Included Blair's "one power" tourney under a new heading: Mini Tourneys. Things like the currently-ongoing Secret Wars and Very Public Wars will also be added under this heading, should they finish.

- I included brief sections for the championship belts that we've used in recent history, and also Blair's writer's tournament, which didn't finish but was unique and cool.

- Lots was streamlined to make it easier to find links and such.
