I have to agree with SillySod here, non-progression wouldn't work for a KO tourney just because part of the challenge is keeping the team alive through the tourney, if it was non-progression, there would be a certain brand of team that would do much better (leaping WarDancers with no fear anyone?) as they wouldn't have to worry about team members dieing IMHO, and could just use the Apo on the first cas caused, to get an advantage in that game


Again, i'm not advocating non-progression, but if you think that wood elves would dominate in that environment, you haven't been to many real life tournaments!

Personally I like the thought of non-prog tourneys. Sure, some races might be better in them than others. But as long as those races are different from the same old tourney races at that TR level, I would welcome it.

I don't see any reason why we should have non-progression tournaments here. All the reasons why this is done in real life tournaments don't apply to the site. Also, non-progression is boring, and might be hard to implement here.

Non-progression is already implemented.

Not in an appropriate form. As detailed in the other thread.

Another update of the tourpoints. Eyes are on GeneralMarauder, who has the chance to work his way up to the second place in this last tourney.

Tonight, with some orcs steamrolling some undeads the FUMBBL Tour 2009 ended. Looking back at the thread, I really enjoyed the tour, although a bit of the excitement was gone after the fifth or so tourney. I really like to thank everyone contributing to the tour in general and to this thread in particular.

I hope you have enjoyed the Tour, too and will be ready for the twenty-ten incarnation of the tour, that will pick up early next year. If you have any suggestions regarding this format, don`t hesitate to post it here.

In the end, I also want to apologize for letting up with the commentary, I`m in dire need of a co-commentator.

The scores have been updated for the last time and the Tour standing is now final.

Cheers
CL

Indeed. For the future of the Tour I have posted my vision here. Feel free to check it out and give feedback, especially on the scoring system.
