On May 16 2013 23:26 Mewka wrote: tbh I think that bw needs more classic tournaments. In last few years there were only few major tournaments + ofc mighty defiler tours. Too many D and C ranks tours/leagues, invitational tours, tours where forbidden is to build something or only mirrors etc instead normal ones. I prefer open tours with some cool map pool and interesting format + some prize pool to compete for ^^ I agree with you, and this is something I briefly touched upon a month ago when we had our yearly meeting. When it comes to filling a certain niche though, it gets complicated. Defiler is an awesome weekly tournament that fills a very clear niche. So we don't want to hold a tournament that competes with Defiler in terms of timeslot or format (this would alienate players and viewers alike for no good reason). Then we have the TLS, another awesome tournament that fills a clear niche. Scheduling is not impossible here, but might be a hassle at times, since we don't want players or viewers being forced to choose one tournament over the other. As if that's not enough, the TL community doesn't have an enormous amount of casters, and the casters we do have also have other obligations and interests besides casting BW (at least I think they do). I believe Defiler and TLS are the biggest currently running 1v1 tournaments. What SBWI needs to do is figure out how our 1v1 tournament(s) can fit into the current tournament-climate (for lack of a better word). Before I start drifting too much off-topic, I'll get back to your post:
However, there are other things that also needs to be taken into consideration:
This isn't reason enough to be pessimistic though. The last couple of weeks have probably been hectic for many, as the last weeks of the spring term tends to be for students. With beginning of summer, as people get more free time, I hope we can start hosting tournaments. If nothing else, that's a personal goal for me. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hopefully that shed some light on the reasoning of SBWI. If anyone has any questions or suggestions regarding future tournaments, feel free to post them in this thread. I can't promise to answer all questions, and as far as suggestions go I can only guarantee that those from SBWI-members will be discussed. + Show Spoiler + The reason for that is simply that all suggestions brought up within the organization will, regardless of topic, always get some sort of response. Whereas this is a forum thread, so it's possible that I, or someone else on the board, forget to respond or don't have access to the internet or something like that. -- TehRei | ||

I mentioned it at the end of my last cast, but didn't feel like making a "hey look at me and tell me how awesome I am," retirement thread. Really did bring a smile to my face to see you say that though. | ||
