FYI, I have no intention of working in tournaments into B at this point. This doesn't mean it won't ever happen but there will not be any tournament any time soon.

Thanks for the clarification.

To know that they might happen 'one day' is enough for me.

Understood.

Will BR be visible once Blackbox goes live?

How is a Smack not already Blackbox?


Blackbox doesn't commit you to more than one game.


Of course. A smack is a "blackbox" tournament, no?

Based solely on a TR range.

Again, the number 1 reason why I like them.

Team Ranking (as a CR type value) would be perfect for [B]. It avoids all of the nasty "I cant start a team" problems and it makes it easy to do rankings for each race and it means that you cant play rubbish to achieve a higher BR.

To be honest, I could probably be content to forget about tournaments in [B] for at least a year if there was a decent BR system for each team.. I'd really enjoy trying to compete for the best team in a particular race (and since you cant exclude teams from the box players would have to maintain their BR, they wouldnt be able to just hibernate it).

Agree with this anyway (per-team BR)

Well, I would not say that since the rounds after the first are predictable. But I suppose that's mostly sematics and not really that relevant to the topic.
