Title: TnT Tournament
Post by: DrewsMagicMonkey on April 15, 2015, 04:50:11 PM
            Hello Everyone. A few players on the server thought it would be a very cool idea to have a huge tnt run tournament. We will be making brackets for the tournament and will take place in 2 weeks on a saturday. A time will be chosen by what the best time for most players is.
            Keep in mind this is just for fun! It isnt about who is best, its just to have a friendly competion. If you would like to join you may sign up here. Have fun!

So... 4/25/15 or 5/2/15? And any time will work for me - I can be up all hours of the day if I need to be (especially on the weekends :P)

4/25/15 :)

Also post the time that works best for you, the time we get the most of is the time it will be. Please make sure the time is eastern so that way all the time is the same and Easyer to tally up... If that makes sense

A difficulty that comes up when scheduling something like this online would be time zone consideration. (I'm posting this because it is a possibility not all people will be able to convert to eastern time.) What would be 3pm for someone might be 6pm for another person. So, to get a sense of people's time zones, anyone wanting a particular time of day should also list what time for you the server restarts. For me, the server restarts at 4am (Eastern time would be 5am). If you don't know when the server restarts for you, I will tell you that the server restarts 6 hours and 18 minutes from the time I post this.

Also, I know I said I don't prefer any time over another, but I prefer early to mid-afternoon on a Saturday (I can't stay up as late on a Sunday; plus, I usually do homework on Sunday), perhaps around 2-4pm (Eastern: 3-5pm)?

If that's the case Rowan, The server restarts at 3 am for me. I'm two hours behind eastern.

On Saturday, I'll be free for most of the day.

            We will be making brackets for the tournament and will take place in 2 weeks on a saturday.

So, how will the bracket work exactly? What kind of elimination will it be, and how will it work?

I'm not sure if we still are doing brackets, it might just be whoever shows up. But if we do it will be like basketball

Given that I am not a sports person, could you explain how that works, please?

A bracket is a form of elimination where two teams/people play against each other, and the winner advances while the loser is out of the game. It is used in many games like the World Cup and basketball. It is called that because it looks like brackets. (See picture)

On topic I might want to play.

Here's what I meant to ask: how does a bracket work with more than two people per game? Or is that how we are going to do it? Most brackets have a format (i.e., single/double elimination, or I've also seen brackets where there are a set number of matches and the top 50% go on to the next bracket level). What will be the format we will be using?

Why don't you all do it at the same time?

So, with my recent computer issues, I am having to take it in for repair, which will likely take the next couple weeks. As such, I will not be able to participate in this unfortunately. Perhaps I can schedule another one in May ;)

Okay, I hope it gets fixed. I believed that the time will be 5:00 eastern time
