RE: The Massive Tournament Overhaul Post
You are viewing a single comment's thread:
I already added bronze GF back in, I got the message from many people. As far as the payout structures, There's really no easy solution. I actually agree with vugtis that I would love a lot of smaller tournaments, but as is right now, all that would be is the same people entering all of them. We need dev work for serious changes to address these types of problems.
The biggest concern I got from people when overhauling these tournaments was "I don't want to enter and lose money" and I think that's fair. These are not for profit tournaments. Making the deck and SPS stake the only requirements means that entry will be free so no risk of loss. If you look at the older brackets the prizes were very tiny and the bottom half were literally refunds. I'm not opposed to adjusting this in the future to stretch them out a little lower, but I want to see how this goes as I'm already removing entry fees. If people really want lower prizes all around and we have enough people entering to justify it, I'll consider changing them after a few rotations. Sound fair?
I think you've done great overall. And the fact that you will consider changing things in the future when you get more data is great and definitely fair.
Thanks for what you are doing Clay, and I think we have the same goals of using tournaments to positively to build and grow out playerbase, as well as providing more entertainment/utility value for our players.
