Elements PvP Tournament - Suggestions and Feedback

[Spielkind]

No polls!
More flexibility!

Me joins whenever have time. No poll or tourney-theme will change my mind, RL is more important than game for me.

What i want to say, just try making tourney happen with less than 8 players, this is the best solution here.

Just my 2

Or perhaps have tournament over two days (weekends)? Idk how it would work though

We should also remember that people in the Australiasian zones make up many of our players. The time zones work that at any point it will be the middle of the night either in america, europe, or australia/newzealand. I assume no one want's to play between 11PM and 7AM local time so i propose 3 different times for pvp events:
- GMT 9 (Suitable for European and Asia-Pacific regions)
- GMT 19 (Americans and Europeans)
- GMT 0 (Americans and Asia-Pacific)

Those times are actually pretty solid tbh, but maybe have 6 times, those 3 and a second set of three which are the same but 1 hour later, so the full set would be:

- GMT 9
- GMT 19
- GMT 0
- GMT 10
- GMT 20
- GMT 1

Sounds fine to me. If the TOs could add these times to the next poll that would be great.

Hmm, polls? We have a fixed rotation, and I didn't think we were doing anything regarding polls and times.

It makes me sad to see this post

So I'm a veteran to Elements, but have never participated in a tourney. The primary reason being the amount of time it takes. As a college student, I can usually not afford to spend a couple hours playing.

That being said, I'm looking to participate in this next upcoming tourney . Have always wanted to join but never had the time. I'll register as soon as I'm sure I can make it!

New to the game and want to play anytime any day lets do it!

Merged participation feedback with general feedback: we're currently looking into ways to support as many times as possible, while preventing tournaments from having to be postponed. A decrease in the minimum amount of participants is therefore likely, but no changes will be made until rewards, format and other such details have been finalized.

[CactusKing]

The last thing the tournaments need is lowered rewards. Part of the reason so few people participate these days is because they don't think the prizes are worth the effort.
Personally i think if you're not going to play with others then why bother playing at all but some people still need convincing, and if you want more people then reducing the reward factor is not going to help

Hi! Sorry, bit new here and I have been looking and well... Lost, completely. May I play using Kongregate or I should enter the game here? thanks!

Both the main website and kongregate connect to the same server, you can play in either.

[dragonsdemesne]

Do they both use the same ingame chat though?  I don't know either way, just curious.  I know you can play between kongregate servers and the main elements ones, as I've done it before, but I thought I remembered the chats being separate, unless you specifically choose the main chat room.

[Aves]

Er, what do you mean by in-game chat and main chat room? There's a Kongregate Chatroom outside the game, there's the forums' main and tourney chatrooms outside the game, and then there's the in-game messaging your opponent thing that lasts for like 10 seconds, and I'm not sure which you're referring to.
