This is a suggestion for implenting a new game style, this is NOT a tournament to sign up for
Introduction
A small thought recently crossed my mind when thinking about the battle royales and the increase of the amount of players to eight. Wouldn't it be a lot of fun to play small tournaments all day instead of having to sign up for those in the forums?
Section 1 The actual suggestion
The idea is to be able to start small tournaments. This will for instance be 8 people opposing eachother 'heads up'. Everyone will have to face an opponent chosen at random and beat them to go to the second round. 4 1vs1's at first 2 1vs1's next 1x1 in the end. 3 games to play and the winner gets ALL the points of the rest. This tournament set up can be done for 6 player games too or anything else. (this would require the max to go above 8 though.) These tournaments will have to be Speed tournaments. However they can be done casual but I'm not sure yet how (might take long waiting time when the round is done)
Section 2 An example: What will the sign up look like?
NOTE: this is just an example, the game aspects (like fog freestyle etc.) can be anything.
Speed 1v1 Tournament
Standard
Freestyle
Escalating
Unlimited
Classic
No

That's right the sign up will look exactly like a normal games sign up! only the heading is changed to 'Speed tournament'
When the sign up is done the players are randomly mixed to oppose eachother and when winning they'll have a new game in 'awaiting players' when the other games end, their opponents will be randomly assigned to the new 'half final' games.
An example with 4 players for instance would be the same only then 8 or 16 players in totall to be able to sign up.
Section 3: What will the tournament look like?
Quarter Finals
PlayerA vs PlayerB
PlayerC vs PlayerD
PlayerE vs PlayerF
PlayerG vs PlayerH
Semi Finals
WinnerAB vs WinnerCD
WinnerEF vs WinnerGH
Final
This can be done in teams as well or in 4 player games everything is possible.
Section 4: Battle Royale
This idea can be used for battle royale's too. Advantages:
*Sign up more people for one BR
*Ability to start with more countries
*More strategy less luck
The Killing extra time will have to be removed in the BR's though and a maximum length of the games has to be decided.
a big one to be frank. This wouldnt go thru the forums but just have the ability to join thru the normal game finder things. Read post #1
