From New TD Guidelines for 'outing' players from Tourneys Posted by webmaster (moderator) Apr 11 2006 10:05AM Although TDs have some leeway in conducting tourneys, we believe that both TDs and players will benefit from more consistency regarding when to 'out' players from the tournament. Below are the 'tourney outing' guidelines: (1) If all players who signed up are present in the tournament room, the tournament will start on the hour provided there are 4+ players (2) If there is someone NOT in the tournament room, they will be 'out'ed and the tourney will start at 2 min. after the hour if there are 4+ players (3) If there are fewer than 4 players, then the TD will wait for up to 5 minutes before taking a vote on WTA or outting those not present and removing the tourney outing Posted by goombah (VIP) Apr 13 2006 9:14AM Item 2 needs explaining.....what time is the person outed and why wait 2 mins after that? goombah Posted by MAB (moderator) Apr 13 2006 12:52PM If there is a player signed up but not in the tourney room, the TD will out them at 2 min after the scheduled tourney time. At this same time (2 minutes after the hour) the TD will start the tournament. If all players are present, the tournament will start on the hour. Outting of Players Posted by jja15 (VIP) Apr 27 2006 3:07PM Good idea...bad idea. I don't see how it is fair to out a player who is not in the room at gametime and then allow a player to sign up after the start time. This seems not very logical. If you are outting players and there are still 4 or more then the tourney should be closed. If there are 3 or less then everyone should have the extra time to sign up or enter the room. That would make it fair for everyone. I do understand the attempt to start on time and I do know I have ranted about that forever but fair is fair!! Before outing the players who signed up but not present... Posted by webmaster (moderator) Apr 27 2006 3:14PM Before outing the players who signed up but are not present in the room at start time, the TDs are encouraged to 'lock' the tournament so that no further signups for this tournament will be possible. |
