You can have influence on what mods are played by sending me propositions, list of at least three mods you'd like to see on tourneys.

Filled all day



Calm down I know its filled, however something needs to be done with this.
Its only like this all the time, I think you need to open it up to the public instead of just having it be 10th dans and up, because obviously its not working

"look at me being smartass", from my observations problem is in people who can play only aikidobd because only then the room had people in it, i was thinking about abandoning the idea but i need a good solution, tiered rooms are working just fine for low belts.
And it was a success at the begingin, idk what happened...People lost intresst in it idk.
Maybe 50k prize and 1 hr wait time. Idk
= SELLING MARKET INVENTORY =
Pm me for deals
more money more waiting time...
Or you could try starting the tourney at 4 players instead of 6. This way people would joint because it's faster and more people will join because they see people in the room. I'll hang around there for the next few days...

lol mybad scorp, but I kind of like insanity idea. I have no idea what you could do to fix this, besides having kido's mods up and running.

here comes mwah with the solution:

change the mods

if you are 10th dan+ that means you have played most of these mods hundreds of times and 10k isn't going to make you want to wait x amount of time to play them in a tournament again. more money is an easy fix, like insanity said but i'm pretty sure you guys wet your pants at the thought of not sinking enough tc so that wont happen

so what you can do that is practical, is set these tournaments to some mods most people haven't played, or mods that are objectively fun. for example, even though its used constantly, boxshu_mushu is always going to be played because its fun even if it has become a 'duel mod'. you can also try things like pendulumjump, msds, tilt_fix, etc.

i have a list of fun mods somewhere that may be beneficial to everyone if you guys take a look. just because we are supposedly elite players for having a high belt doesn't mean we only want strictly competitive shit all the time in our servers. you can continue to throw in some popular mods like abd and rk but i think i speak for must higher belts when i say 10k is not going to make me want to wait in a tournament server to play a mod like judofrac that takes forever and isn't very fun.

tl;dr, add a better incentive like insanity said (which you wont) or pick mods that we will actually wait to play and watch because its fun. 90% of a tournament is watching others and chatting, and as we know in our time here, play to win toribash is about as fun as watching paint dry. (if you have ever watched a 50k+ duel in boxshu_mushu then you probably know what i'm talking about)

there is your fix to the 10th dan+ empty server problem
teeth marks on my goosebumps, the chains frostbit me.

i've already mentioned a lot of times, suggest a mod and i'll think about it, just send a list of mods you'd like to see, but currently i can't change the mods more often than once per week.
I personally don't care about TC cap as it's not really my problem, as guy who deals with people i have different concerns regarding giving too much.
I don't see 10k as a low value(i don't have enough authority when it comes to this either way), besides that you know that we can't go over the top.
And drop this cynical tone, it's pointless.
idk why you read that in a cynical tone but ok chief

heres my short mod list i made a while ago: mods

im sure you can use a good amount on that list or talk it over with the others to see which ones work. note that some may need match and timeframe tweaks to make them tournament ready

a couple off the top of my head that should get higher belts interested other that the obvious abd would be

gtrunner
msds
boxshu_mushu_v3
gthotdog
qpong17
teeth marks on my goosebumps, the chains frostbit me.
probably because of the 'witty' remarks, well nevermind,

for this week i'll change the big tourneys to boxshu_mushu_v3

for 500 tc tourneys, boxshu will be changed to something from the long list
and aikido to aikidobd due to high demand.
