JAK+ Tournament 2006!

After having participated in the TiT run by Roan this year, I felt that the JAK+ missed out on the fun. Why not have a tournament similar to the TiT for them along with our staff?

Thus, I started planning this tournament out. I got seed numbers for those interested from my random number generator on my calculator. Then, I made a tournament bracket and made the rules.

For the tournament bracket:
JAK+ Tournament

Round details:
3 NF 2 FF

Server order procedure:
1. Coin Toss
2. Winner of toss gets to have 1 NF and 1 FF on their server of choice.
3. Next NF and FF on the other's server.
4. If tied, coin toss for last NF duel.
Start each FF with 100/100. Make an effort to duel on a server with the default force regen (200).

Have a referee just to look :cool:

Demos of matches would be nice!

I'm not going to set a certain date that the first match should be done by unless it gets to the point that we are waiting solely on one match to continue on with the tourney.

Finals - 4 NF 3 FF

I would love for these matches to gather a large student audience. They are just plain awesome, even the first round! So, if the participants are willing to, it would be nice for them to state suggested times they will have their matches in order that students may view these epic battles :D

Results will be posted in this thread in the following format:
Winner 5 Loser 0
Referee: Neutral
Link to demo or name of person who has it.

Thanks to Roan for the TiT and the many things I borrowed from it, and Jade for helping me find a good tournament bracket customizer.

May the Force be with us all! :) :alliance:

It doesn't work for me either. It's probably just temporary though.

R2D2 3 Kauyon 1
Referee: Virtue
Saz took the demos.

R2 vs Kauyon

Upon hearing my proposed suggestion for server changes, Virtue suggested that we do this instead:
1. Coin Toss
2. Winner of toss gets to have 1 NF and 1 FF on their server.
3. Next NF and FF on the other's server.
4. If tied, coin toss for last NF duel.

Seems pretty fair to me.

I see where Sete is comming from you'll end up doing 3 on one server any way so do them all at once to save hopping from server to server. But I also see what your saying R2 if you lose the first you then have to chance to regain some confidance by posibly winning the second on your home ground.


Yes, that's why it's so hard to decide upon. The extreme in my thinking would be switching out after every match, which requires 4 server changes.

Only problem with that Sete is the fact that the other person will be at a disadvantage ping-wise for the first 3. Only 3 duels are needed to clinch a match, so it doesn't really give the coin toss loser a chance to play on a better server for him/her.

How about:
1. Coin toss by ref
2. First duel is on the loser's server of choice.
3. Winner gets the 3 middle duels on their server of choice.
4. Finally, last duel on the loser's server.

I think it would be easier to do one half of the duels on one server, and the other half on another server. The one winning the coin toss gets to have three duels on their favourite JA server. I think that would work well, and avoid too much switching. :)

Hmm, with more of these Euro-US matches now, I think it would be best to switch between servers each match. Would be a pain for the ref/specs/demo guys, but it would even out the ping differences. Someone does an arbitrary coin toss for the first match and then alternate from there.

I believe Dacascos has the demo.


Lies. I didn't record. Was I supposed to? O.o

Why do you think we spent around five-ten minutes explaining how to demo to you?
