STEEEL - on the monthlies - we have anywhere from 4pm till 11pm on Sundays at Funhouse... But we just don't have enough time for 2 halo tournaments. A ffa would take several hours. Anything else would take 4+ hours if it's double elim. Just no time. Heck, doing JUST one 2v2 or 4v4 - has taken till 1 or 2am because of hardware / other concerns... So no - just one Halo tournament during the Monthly. As for multiple day? It's kinda a fun idea, but best kept to a CompUSA / etc format. As I say to EffectZ here in a second, and is covered earlier in the thread - the monthly tournaments - are to get the word out about OKgamers - to as many types of gamers as possible - thus the multi-game format. So....
Cools - exactly.
o no halo 1 and 2 well then i wont be there lol gl to whos going
EffectZ -
http://www.okgamers.com/forums/index.php?topic=293.msg2900#msg2900Right there, finishing on page 2 - it was decided that we should just have Halo take ONE spot - not 2.
FIRST OFF - We do NOT HAVE THE ROOM NOR TIME to do TWO halo tournaments. I'm sorry, it's just not feasable at this time. We start renting out hotel rooms - etc? Then we'll talk. Else - the monthly tournament area is just not large enough / enough time.
Second - the whole purpose of the Monthly Tournaments? Is to get the word out about OKgamers.com - SURE - I have NO PROBLEM throwing a halo tournament every month - because there are plenty of halo players helping out the cause. But 2 Halo's - is exessive, to say the least. It looks like we will be throwing another CompUSA tournament - approval pending. So - in a few months, we'll have another big all day Halo event.
This is not that. This is to get the word out about the site - to as many people as possible. As discussed through page 1 and 2 of this thread, please refer to it
No others spoke up / out about it, so I assumed it was as consensus as possible.
And - that last bit is kinda my defining point to all this. If we get feedback otherwise on the forums - it'd been different. But
February 15th, at 10:49am - Micah suggested we stop doing ALL the SAME GAMES over and over again. Still on Page 1, a couple hours later I post - stating not only does it suck because we are limiting our crowd, Halo players voting in TWO halo's - are killing us on time/space/people bringing enough hardware - we just can't do that properly / the way they want - with one screen per person, etc etc.
Later, Vega backs it up. Then Micah clarifies - pointing out that "
If this site stays so stagnant, like it has the past few months, people are going to lose interest and this whole endeavor will likely fail.". Which I've got to say, is a concern.
Then Penquinotic agree's, continuing the call for more games. Coolsvilla as well, pointing out more games.
2 days later? Pinkie comes in and sums it up:
Give 2 spots to what is voted in for Halo / other, 1 spot we try and keep ROTATING for everything else.
...After a
full 4 days to see opinions - I come back in, and go with what has been overwhelmingly agreed upon. Which really is?
We vote on 3 games:
1 - will probably always be Halo - whatever the Halo types vote most for - we'll play.
1 - will probably be current favorite - seems to be SSBM now.
1 - we will try and
swing the vote to be - something new.
This month - it seems to have been GoW. Next month? I say GGXX since it got the next to most votes this month. After that? Maybe DOA, MvC or a SF game. Etc. Etc.
