RANDOMIZER 1 - Tournament for 16 players

**Jazz** · 08-09-2012, 12:22 PM

OK, now I only need to hear from AA1 Speed Freak & Badjar! As soon as I know who won in their games, I'll post the pairings for semifinals!

EDIT: on a sidenote, I can already tell that GSE Ymatoine will be playing The Haydes, since the pairings for semifinals are in alphabetical order, so the winner of the yet unplayed game will face GSE GrimGuardians.

Good Games. Felt like a mirror match. Confirmed Banebow

Updated the tables, so those who already finished Round 2 games would have more time to play!

OK then, now you know your opponent and can get right to it!

Banebow

3-2 over Elad. Good Games. The hero that went first won every game. Banebow

got lucky and went first in the deciding game 5.

That's why I don't quite like the Bo3 format, so I tried to do something about by introducing this new format of mine, but there's nothing I can about the final random game!

And congratulations on becoming our first finalist!

Just curious, how does this format fix the "whoever goes first" problem? If you have player X and player Y, the player who goes first wins, and player X goes first in the first game, then:

Bo3 format: X-Y-?
Your format: X-Y-X-Y-?

It just makes things longer.

Not necessarily, since if you win the first 2 games, there's no need to play more games!

And every time I have a 1-2 loss, it's because the 3rd game was similar to the game he had previously won (in terms of who went first that is)! So I believe the more games you play, the better the odds are to eliminate random victory! It's just my opinion though!

I was thinking, if you want to eliminate this problem. At game 5 if the person who went first wins just keep playing until someone is able to win going second. At least this way someone is forced to win going second once.
