losing tournament
change a main rule of matches, you are not going to win first, u are going to lose
so you have to kill yourself as fast as you can :}

It could be very funny :D
my post from tournaments ideas ; )

IMO tournament or pvp event would be better and more interesting. It's like a grinding competition  :-\

That's simple, the winner is chosen by a vote.
Tbh the award should just go to the most losses.  I strongly suspect the most losses will also have 0 wins.  But we have to acknowledge a scenario where player A gets more votes than player B despite B having more losses.

If player A has an ingenious deck and went 0-100, he should still lose to player B who's deck is poorly constructed but went 3-150.  And it's not even close.

Please let us know the exact rules ASAP.  I've been grinding but I'm going to stop if there's a chance I'll be the clear victor and lose to a popular vote.

The hard part of that is that it would likely just turn into a popularity contest. The only way for it to be fair really is if people sent you their decks and stats, and you posted them all onto a thread with a poll, without saying which belong to who.

um...   i'm don't good in english at all, can you explain your reply again?

you say it use three thing to determine the winner, the number of loses, how fast your deck loses, and the deck itself.

but in the end, you say the winner is count by vote?

i'm mean, am i really must  post a screenshot or something like that,   only a deck is not enough?

All contests are decided by votes. I trust everyone to be mature enough to vote properly. I have finished editing the rules, they have no need to change. People will be judged based off of number of loses, how quickly their deck loses, and deck design. People should take all these things into consideration when voting.

No, not all competitions are decided by votes.

The one you can compare this one best with is: Empowered creatures (http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,7246.0.html), and Undefeated (http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,7249.0.html).

And at those there has never been a voting.


Also, my question still stands: is the trainer allowed to be able to make upgraded decks?

Seems I'm mistaken. Looks like I'll be judging it myself then based off of number of loses, deck, and speed of loss. Speed of the loss being most important, followed by number of loses, and finally deck.

And I already addressed the trainer question. Yes it can be used, just post them all individually at the end.

can i just put the top part for win/loss ratio like this below?


and is this acceptable screen shot (below) for beginning/end shortest game? i can't seem to get a quality shot for both the game and the clock? i'm running on resolution 1920x1080 if that means anything. any suggestion?

As long as we can see the clock, that's fine.

Both seem alright to me.

It is no point to compare the number of lose games.

I'm quite sure we can always lose the game 100% if we want to.
Just simply make a deck with 30 pillars can do it easily.
so I agree this competition is no point at all.

It is a good idea for tournament only as players can compete the self-killing speed and heal opponent.
