Dualism https://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php?topic=16690.msg212235#msg212235
« on: November 29, 2010, 03:07:29 am »
Here's the idea I came up with:

Dualism
Original idea by: ddevans96   |   Developed by: ddevans96   |  Organized by: ??

Players use decks that are composed of opposing elements to gain score in a swiss style tournament.


1. SIGNING UP
Anyone with a forum and a chat account can sign up for this event. First you should read the rules very thoroughly. Then you can sign up by posting on a separate sign up topic. If you cannot find a sign up topic or if it is locked, this event is not currently active and you will have to wait for it to restart.

Maximum amount of participants for this event is 32. If the event is full you can sign up as a reserve player, and will get a chance to join the event if any of the 32 players doesn't show up during the first round.


2. PREPARATION
Your deck may be any size you wish.

You may use any non-upgraded cards in the game as well as up to 6 upgraded cards.

Pay close attention that your deck adheres to the rules below.


3. BRACKETS
This event will be a 12-round swiss style tournament. At the beginning of each round, you will be randomly paired up with another player. There will be a points system that will determine your position in the rankings and ultimately decide the winner.


4. DUELS
Players have five days to make the fight happen. They must contact their opponent using PM and attempt to find a time that suits both. If the fight doesn't happen, the game is counted as a 0-0 match with no effect on the score unless one player is clearly more active in trying to find a suitable time. Event organizer will determine who the most active player was, and their word is final.

Matches are best-of-five. The first player who wins three duels, wins the match.

In the odd numbered games, at least 50 percent of your deck must be one element. The rest of the cards can be whatever you choose.

In the even numbered games, at least 50 percent of your deck must the opposite element of the odd numbered games. The rest of the cards can be whatever you choose.

The pairs are (:water :fire) (:earth :air) (:light :darkness) (:life :death) (:gravity :entropy) (:time :aether)

It's a good idea to either record the matches or take screenshots as proof, just in case something weird happens, such as a desync error. Remember, a player who gets caught cheating will be permanently banned from all Elements community PvP events, so please play fair.


5. AFTER DUELS
Winner should post a new topic in the "Battle Results" section with the decks they used, along with a short description of how the match went. The loser should then reply to that thread with the decks they used, as well as a short description if they wish.
Remember, decks can be changed at anytime between matches, so you are not limited to two or three decks the entire tournament.


6. SCORING
Each player starts with 0 score. For every game in a match that is won, you gain ten points. For every game that is lost, you ten points. The scoring system would be like this:

3-0 win+30
3-1win+20
3-2 win+10
2-3 loss-10
1-3 loss-20
0-3 loss-30
Whoever has the most score at the end of the event will be proclaimed the victor. If there is a tie, they will have a best-of-five match to determine the winner with the normal rules of the event.


7. REWARDS
The winner of the event will receive the following forum award icon: (http://imageplay.net/img/m7Gbd106858/Dualism_Event_Badge)

(This is just an example badge I threw together in a couple minutes to fill out the template)


The rules for this could probably be tweaked slightly, but it's an idea I want to throw out there. If anyone made this before me, you have my apologies.

Why not make it:
2-0 : 2 points
2-1 : 1 point
1-2 : 0 points
0-2 : -1 point

When I first started elements I was a noob. Now I'm a noob in only 11 parts of it. The unimportant ones.
Saying Elements cards are just pixels is like saying Dollars are just paper.

Because I like big numbers for some strange reason :)

I suppose I might change it. Any other thoughts?

Nice...but maybe it would be more interesting to make it a Mono-Only. Since its half of the deck from one element I think most of the players will chose to use Mono decks ;)

It can't really be a 16 person, 6 round, round robin tournament. In a round robin tournament, you play all of the other players. I think you might be thinking of a swiss tournament.

Nah, just look at the war. It uses the same deckbuilding rules and there are very few monos. It's not quite the same because your opponent knows your element going into the match in war, but it's still similar.

Yeah, I have a bad habit of confusing them :)

I'm going to update the rules with a few modifications here in a minute.
