Deciding who goes first in tournaments.

Post by Shoe555 »

I was wondering if there is a way to give each player a chance to play first in the tournaments?

In three straight tournaments I have played last 10 out of 10 matches.

I guess there is no way to fix this issue?

yeah not currently possible for the tournament organiser or in the event of an auto tournament the system to distribute starting player evenly. It would be a great addition and has been suggested before in the suggestions forum. I think it would be great in 1vs1 tournaments not so much for the multiplayer tournaments I have been running lately.

Totally agree that it would be great one versus one. You are at such a big disadvantage going last when the settings are unlimited forts. Would also be nice to eliminate some of the neutrals in 1vs1 tournaments. Too many times I have seen 1or2 territories blocked in by a neutral territory and it can’t be used.

I think changing this will help with more people getting involved in tournaments and staying active on this site.
