what happened with tourneys

so what ever happened with the ruling of, 1 game over the whole tourney, ive kinda avoided auto tourneys lately because it seems kinda hopeless if you cant care about the scoreboard, but only each game individually?

He's asking about the rules against suiciding in a game to cause someone specific to lose in order to better your chances in a tournament.

Yeah, Mad777 was trying to get a new rule written, but there were roughly equal numbers of arguments for and against the new rule, so it stalemated.

So whatever the old ruling was, it stands.

I don't get the comment about avoiding autotournaments because of it, though. There's been five or ten thousand autotournaments. How many have resulted in C&A cases? Three? Four? What are the odds that you'll end up in one of those? Avoiding autotourneys because you might end up in one that goes to C&A is like avoiding the park because there might be a rabid grizzly on the prowl.

You're not wrong, but people do things for sillier reasons.

i dont feel like wasting my time playing, if somebody can suicide me and it be okay ( i dont have a problem with it if its to win tourney) but if i did it and get called for it, its a waste of time

hence why i dont really feel like joining, if there isnt a ruling, have a double ruling, makes it shit

There needs to be a few more 1v1 and poly tournaments in there to appeal to people who want to play those. I was looking through them the other day and noticed that most are 3+ players per game. Not a chance I'm playing tournaments with that kind of setup. I can understand where Jack is coming from. Having to diplo your way through a tournie and hope someone doesn't take you out because you're a threat? Nah. :lol:
