so, we can only play if BOTH contestants are on the same server (obvious) and only if a judge is on, right? if thats right then it will be a bit hard, just to say
exxxxxacta..... either yos will have to CUT ALL ties with the outside world, he takes on more assistants/judges/recorders watever, orrrr each and every contestant will have to be extremeeeeely organized... setting organized matches that mesh wit not 1 not 2 but 3 people in up to 3 different time zones.... good luck yoshi.
Can you give me the exact username of my opponent "SPECIALIZED KILLER" so I can add him to my friend list. Never seen him before.
A few comments/suggestions/questions
1. When will the game mode be changed from NORMAL to something else? I suggest either round of 8 or Final Four.
2. I strongly suggest not playing DOGFIGHT and EQ as there is very little strategy for these modes, and EQ is heavily influenced by right-vs-left field advantage.
3. When game mode does change, how is it determined? Assuming that DF and EQ are not used, there are still NORMAL, CW, LOWTECH & SS left, which is a lot of builds to get ready for. How much advanced notice do we have of knowing what mode will be used? Does it apply to all games in a match, or does mode change from game to game?
4. I recommend alternating left and right sides so that left-vs-right field advantage does not determine the outcome. If the right side always win after the maximum number of games then perhaps the match should require winning by 2 so that the winner is not decided by being on the right side.
