I am going to add "Teams" as a tournament category. I will add those rules to the tournament guide when I get time.

Whoah! Hold your horses, me bucko!

One of the issues with Teams is that I am not sure how to assign RNRS points, if any.

My sense is that teams members will vary from tournament to tournament. Do I give each player the points individually.

lightningninja · « **Reply #7 on:** August 05, 2009, 07:23:17 PM »

That's what I would think. Let's say you score it like the online, 10 for a win, 5 for second and 3 for first. Both first place players get 10, and so on and so forth. Which means that each player would have to keep owning to place high.

GO TEAMS!!!

As long as the scoring method is known by the players I don't think it is too important whether points are awarded to pairs as a team or if points are awarded as individuals. If it were me I would lean towards no RNRS points for teams, just prizes akin to multi-player at the tournaments.

lightningninja · « **Reply #10 on:** August 05, 2009, 07:34:32 PM »

I think RNRS for individual players is absolutely needed. It's the only way to reward players who constantly play the event. That's what RNRS is for.

Sean · « **Reply #11 on:** August 05, 2009, 07:36:37 PM »

I think the prizes they get at the tournaments are more than enough.

BubbleBoy · « **Reply #12 on:** August 05, 2009, 07:43:10 PM »

Don't insult teams in such a way by denying RNRS points! I don't understand the problem with awarding points individually; can't you just cut the amount given in half or something?

I would like to see RNRS points awarded for teams if it's going to be an official event. I could see waiting until after the 1st of the year when a final decision is made.

Awarding points to each individual player on the team seems like the best solution. It makes for a lot less work since you don't have to keep track of who is on which team. It also eliminates the possiblity of a person being on more than one of the top point winning teams in a season, which could happen if points were awarded on a per team basis instead of individually.

Its not an insult, its a money saver as well as a time saver.

Fortresses are shared between partners so one WoP protects your characters from opponents but you can band to your partners.

Nope, didn't know you were kidding.

My question for teams is this: Will both Teammates get winners Promos/TXP, or will there be only one and they have to fight to the death for it?

BubbleBoy · « **Reply #21 on:** August 06, 2009, 12:01:14 AM »

Neither.

It will be a fight to the pain.

Arch Angel · « **Reply #22 on:** August 06, 2009, 12:02:24 AM »

Well... At least I'll get to keep my ears.

BubbleBoy · « **Reply #23 on:** August 06, 2009, 12:04:45 AM »

Apparently I won that fight.

I want my TxP card now!

This is a message board. You lose the ears, but you get to keep your eyes.
