best of the best

[Awwalike]

if someone has already come up with this idea then suck it, it's a genius idea.

- each guild picks 1 player per class (how they do that I really don't care).
- /random 1000 for seeding (or call people out like a real man would).
- start the fight to death unbuffed
- finally find out who is the best


don't have a guild? sucks at least you can watch (or get tagged under something random)

boom tite idea rite?

finally find out who is the best

I am. Problem solved. /thread

idea is good except for the whole guild thing, no reason whatsoever to make it restricted to 1 person per guild and if ur not guilded u cant participate. being in a guild doesn't make someone a good player and not being in a guild doesn't make someone a bad player

it makes it way less time consuming for the GMs to accept everyone who can make a character. if someone really wanted to join they could /petition for Amelinda to create a guild, I assume this would filter out some of the not serious contenders. it would also make it so the truly best of each guild were sent and not just everyone from the zerg.

I wouldn't want my guild name on a single fight (if I had a guild).

Are the classes actually that balanced for PvP, or is "Best of the Best" really a call for "SKs whose harm touch isn't on cooldown" or something like that.

What you're describing is similar in nature to Code S in Starcraft, a competition which is CONSTANTLY under fire for not properly representing "the best" because its too restricted -- its too hard to enter (you basically have to play ridiculously well for about 2 years, much better than the existing code S people, before you get a chance to sneak in).

The only reason I can see to do things by guild is to decrease the number of players to make it "cost less" to hold the tourney. If I was going to spend any time fighting, I'd want to know who's 2nd best, 3rd best, and 4th best... and those might actually all be from the same guild.

The usual way this is solved is with feeder tournaments. Have people compete in different tournies to see who is actually the best (not "who is the best in a guild"), then host the finals tournament like you want it to.

Of course, I can't tell from your verbiage. Was that original post a "It'd be cool if some people fought and stuff and the winner got called 'the best,'" or was that a "I'm ready to organize and execute a tournament, sign up here?" If it was the former, then I've probably already put too much thought into it.

I would punch the shit out of all non dragon/god geared monks.

And it would feel so right.

I know where he lives IRL. He can be indisposed.
