If each player starts with one land, 24 players and 24 lands, and a player loses their first match (and thus their land) are they out for good? I'm guessing not, since they can still challenge other people for their lands. If that's the case, my earlier objection is irrelevant. There would be no reason to cap the number of participants at 24, since anyone can challenge for a land that's held.

Im curious...can someone with out a land challenge someone with a land? if so, what benefit does the land holder get for playin someone with no land? if not, then ok question answered
And if only people with lands battle, you may wanna lower the # of lands too...tourneys fail when they are too big without enough player support. And also if 2 players left, 1 has 10 lands and other has 14, then they gotta play 1v1 almost infinitely if they are even skilled, which they will be since they the 2 left. So perhaps set a deadline and most lands held within the deadline wins? and to keep activity...make em play 2 games a week or they lose their land
anyways, just throwin out ideas..key to a good tourney is thinking about all aspects

Here are some of the ideas I have so far for the tourny. Idea is to keep it very simple. Let me know what ya think, and if you wanna offer anything else.
- 24 Lands total to conquer.
- Individual players control and fight for each land.
- Once all lands are given out, the first Lord of each land can Name the land. This name will remain for all time.
- Each land will be assigned its own unique map. This map will stay with that land and must be used when you are defending it.
- A couple lands will have wild card maps. Meaning who ever owns the land may choose the map to defend the land.
- Land defenders DO NOT have to accept all challenges.
However, you must accept challenges from any adjacent land.
- Invaders = players that wish to challenge for a land when they own NO lands. Invaders can only invade into one of 4 lands.
- Land owners that own any of these 4 pre-chosen lands must accept all challenges from any Invader.
- All games must be played on Advanced setting.
- Game time limits = 4-6 mins. Defender gets preference.
Register for open lands. E-mail -- Jinxer@wcnet.org

We have 10 players pre registered. We need at very minimum 12 players. To get started. Also all that is left to figure out. Is 20 different unique land bonuses.
Start throwing out ideas.

i got a couple a ideas!! ;)
I think all players should play in thong underware so that ZUD will feel more comfortable in his games. Also that way you know your oponent has nothing up his sleave!!
Seriousely though, why not play your tourney in a feudal sort of way. Everybody gets a fiefdom, when they lose to someone they don't lose there land they have to join the winners side and swear fealty to them. Every round of the game you'd have a limitted amount of invasions from outside by other players who want to get in on the tourney. These invaders could than take over the land they just conquered and start to try to creat there own kingdom or end up losing and haveing to join anothers.The cool thing about this is you just set a win point, when one player wins enough and gains enough followers he's declared the king. He wins. you could set it up so that when ya beat one player, all his followers would also have to join you as well. You would have like 2 types of fighting, wars of conquest fought by leaders, winners take all, or raids where one of the leaders followers would try to capture one or more of another leaders Vassals. Aleader could go raidng himself but it would be a huge risk as his whole kingdeom could be forfeit if he lost. Also you could have revolts among Vassals as well, lets say a leaders vassal won in enough raids and had enough players who had sworn fealty to him that he had , lets say 25% of all the Vassals of a single leader under his control, he could try to revolt and break away. The cool thing about this tourney format is that everybody can continue to play and even has not just one, but maybe many chances to win the whole thing. Hopefully it would also help to keep the boredom factor down as the situation would be continuosely changing and week to week would be new with new oportunities You could be king one week and be a lowly Vassal or worse, out of the game waiting for a turn in the next barbarian invasion round the next week. What ya think of thses idea's? prob. not exactly what ya wanted eh jinxer ole buddy? more like a totally different tourney hehehehe

sounds similar to a tourney I mentioned to Pandora before Bastards went out for a bit, until it picks itself up.
A whole world with civilized tournies & countries with certain teams & other parts & so forth, even have the same castle type & even bribe players to switch teams etc.

@ TC_Fear -- All lands will be given out randomly. And all maps have all ready been selected. Sorry but none of those 3 are on the list. You sure you still want in?
