TOURNAMENTS Q&A

Q: What is a Dimso?
A: "Dimso" is a unit that determines how many upgrades you can use in a deck.

Dimso Table (note: the present players decided with no vetos to replace the dicerolls with the number 3, so its just (roundnumber+1)*3 (+3 in case you lost a game this round already) now
also losers bracket was adjusted to have dimsos according to roundnumber rather than accumulated losses (in retrospect probably should have given them 3 upgrades more in order to keep the pace in the second final if it comes to it)

What about having just 3 dismo gained for the loser of the first game instead of 1d6 dismos? It can be frustrating for the TO that hosts the tournament to roll 1d6s all the time... :P

I'd like to see TOs roll 2d3 instead, where the winner of a 2-0 match is awarded 4 Dimso. Also, in case of  a double elimination tournament the discrepancy in Dimso might need to be addressed.

Does it have to be exactly 50% of one element? Are an uneven amount of cards per deck / Other cards allowed?

  • If a player wins a match with 2-0, he will be awarded with 3 Dimso before proceeding to next match.

For me it is pretty much unbalanced. I mean someone beats a weaker player/deck and he gets a bonus to make an even stronger deck for the next game...

EDIT: I must add this is somewhat reasonable since that player was able to beat a stronger deck (+3 dimso to the loser after 0-1).

Btw 1 Dimso = 1 upped card? Or the rate of exchange is determined later?

I think this is perfectly logical. I second it.

By the tournament's logic other cards are banned - it should be mentioned in the rules.

Can a deck have an odd number of cards? Like 16 of one element and 15 of another, or does it have to be exactly 50%?
Title: Re: Weekly Tournament - May 20th - Upgrade - Upgraded
Post by: Wyand on May 19, 2018, 04:43:48 pm
My opinion: exact 50%. That would make sense.
Title: Re: Weekly Tournament - May 20th - Upgrade - Upgraded
Post by: pliterallyh on May 20, 2018, 05:52:45 am

Your deck must be a duo deck, i.e. 50% of one element and 50% of another element. You can use any deck mark.


The deck doesn't have to be 50/50; they are just using that as a example, hence, the "i.e.".
Title: Re: Weekly Tournament - May 20th - Upgrade - Upgraded
Post by: Wyand on May 20, 2018, 07:33:18 am
Not really. E.g. = example given. I.e. = id est - meaning "that is" in latin. http://www.dictionary.com/e/whats-the-difference-between-ie-and-eg/

So I hope they meant true 50-50 decks, because I've spent a lot of time making them! (And obviously no TO answered the question.)

This  is a rerun of a (not particularly wellreceived, but at least Zya organizes sth at all, which is more than I do) tournament. So for rulequestions I just looked there and can confirm that this was meant to be run with a perfect 50-50 split of elements in decks. Its also worth noting that several people were of the opinion that this could easily be split into 2 tournaments among other possible simplifications.
(also unlike the procedure should be that tourney is still in the archive rather than somewhere you couldnt see it, but contrary to the last posts promise, no decks have been posted in it so its fine anyway)

But Kaempfer, who will host the tournament with Zyar being offline?

Also, are "other" section cards allowed?
