Yeah I agree that tl.net should host some tournaments weekly so ppl can meet and have some good games . This would bring more discussions and would make the site more active...and also, I think a public replay section would be a good idea;;;

I could take care of a weekly tournament thing no problem.

A public rep section would be iffy though.maybe if you had a rule where only forum regulars could use it,like 600+ posts or something then it would be a bit safer from junk being uploaded.

Definetly need something happening in the rep section department though,currently its pretty bad

Yah, i've thought about public rep section many times but the thing that hold me back is the memory of bw.com rep archive.

*shudders*

just get a few dedictated liquidites to moderate,if it turns out bw.com'ish,remove it.But i really doubt it will,i think its obvious bw.com community was far worse than tl,you'll know what i mean if you've ever read the comment section or the forum there.

Meat I could probably do organization for a weekly tournament.

The only problem is drawing people in. If one of site mods introduced the tournament as a TeamLiquid event, there would be a better tournout. Would make the forum more active, definitely lift the cloud of boredom thats been lingering lately

You could do neat things for the winner, too. Like making a little symbol for the winner of the tourney to wear for the week, like the #1 Liquibet's happy guy with trophy.

What do you think?

Well, personally i think weekly is way too much. Monthly is way better imo, or would you really want to spend every weekend MANY hours on running something? Really, when you run a tournament so many troubles turn up, like disconnects, hack accusations and much more. Also i think it would be better to keep it a bit special, that way some of the better players of the forums will also participate and not only the newbies.

How much experience do you have with running tournaments?

You're right about the monthly part

that sounds much better.

I've been running the Friday Night Tournament for 6 weeks or so, but trance is doing this week's since i wasn't sure if I'd be there

They're simple single elim 16-man tourneys, but they go smoothly and people have a great time

Running a tournament isn't really very hard.. You just have to keep track of things
