It's not salt when you say something that isn't true and I reply something with something that is true
And what you're implying is again incorrect, because like I just said, everyone isn't given a chance... just the top 64 and 32

Well, you started one of your posts with "brilliant philosophy" so either you meant it, or you were just being salty sarcastic. Also, you're still failing to see what I'm trying to say (maybe I haven't been clear). I'm saying, that the more teams allowed in GST= the more of a chance people have of participating in it. Also everyone is given a chance if they qualify for it, they just have to put in the work lol.

Gitaz please, either contribute something relevant, or go do something productive elsewhere. Right now you're wrong.

So when is this singles tournament going to happen?

I'm pretty sure players would pay real money for a registration fee.

#singlespartournament #SST

Build a Graal Square Garden and make the tournaments PPV. I would pay 1k gralats to attend the event.

hell no, i still regret paying real money in 09-10 to purchase house packs and customization pack, and i had nothing else to do with that itunes money at the time.

i'd like to participate in a singles spar tournament though and see how far i'd get with under 500 total spars worth of experience since the summer. how long would it take though? if it was a quick thing (less than an hour) i'd be down, any longer and that's a huge chunk of my time in college (assuming i'm in college since i'm there for 3/4 of the GSTs) that i'd rather spend doing anything else.

Real money, no. Gralats, sure.

Ha, I could actually see it happen. How much $$ or % of said amount of people paying to enter is the real question. (I'd suggest $1-$10).

For example, each player pays an entry cost of $5 to enter singles tourney. There are 672 people who participate in GST so let's assume at least that amount of people want a chance at this money pool and title/prizes.
1st Place: 50% of money pool ($1680.00 USD)
2nd Place: 25% of money pool ($840.00 USD)
3rd Place: 10% money pool ($336.00 USD)
Remaining $504 would go to Graal.

I think this current staff team are more than capable enough of organizing and overseeing it successfully.

question: if someone plays on two (or more) identified accounts on the same IP, do both accounts gain a rating and clutter the leaderboard?

and @ the whole money thing, isn't that gambling and illegal for most people on graal?

Aguzo · 01-15-2016

You can't involve money, unless staff can detect speed hackers, and not let delayers play.

Otherwise it's pointless, and people can get away with cheating.

David M. · 01-15-2016

Real money thing won't happen unless a player hosts it, but I don't think many people would trust another playet with their money.

Can't even trust a staff to go through with their "Amazon gift card" tourney...

True. But there are people out there I'd trust to manage it.

and why are you the person who gets to draw the line between relevant and irrelevant? stop acting like a king, now bow down to your superior.

It's the same way Smash tournaments work with a prize pool, so I doubt it. Unless lots of States have been illegally running underground Smash tournaments.

Don't feel bad I bought mine just to do the GH jump.

If they were to do like a 32 player tournament then it would probably go fast, but the problem would be finding a reasonable way to choose participants.

When I mentioned money I meant it as a way to encourage/motivate the server to do it, but then I realized they're not getting any money, so it would defeat the purpose. I'm guessing there has to be some incentive or logical reason for them to invest the time needed to accommodate the top 16-32 sparers for a tournament.
