Would you be willing to keep the tournament running if people were willing to help out / do all the work?

You're right, he did do his best and it's a credit to him that he got the competition started and generated interest in the community.

It's just a shame to see everything that's been set up and is already in motion go to waste. There are at least five people who have put their hands up to help carry the competition on - it's a matter of setting up STV, having referees for games and recording scores.

I'm pretty sure that we can handle it.

Thanks Black Thunder... for getting the ideas for a new tournament going. It's no easy task, was close to working, and showed us that it can be done.

I think the idea of pools and a different map each week was a brilliant idea. The result being that teams must play a minimum amount of games consistently with breadth and depth to progress, and eventually reach the finals.

The idea isn't dead.... and I believe there's enough interest and capacity in the DOD:S community to make it happen. I'm willing to help, in what ever way I can; and I suspect I'm not the only one.

A place where like minded people could discuss things,share ideas,skills, and experience would be the logical start.

Cheers
Comrade

Hey Thunder

Firstly, thanks for your efforts, you created an awesome tournament and everyone recognises all the effort you put in. To achieve what you did, you should be very proud of yourself.

I would just like to say that if people are willing to continue the competition (rather than see all your hard work go to waste) then you should really consider it. All this interest is a good thing.

We have the forum to keep the comp going, including posting matches / results / refs / game times etc. Perhaps use the forum rather than the http://www.dpck.net/rwswar site.??

Have you told the tournament sponsors yet? Perhaps all you would need to do is check if they would be happy to let it continue under new leadership / organisation and let a few key people know passwords to the server and such. I'm sure the existing refs etc will be willing to continue on?

The comp should really pretty much run itself from now on (bar changing the map each week, posting results etc) - it would only be the finals perhaps that would take a little more organisation?

I'm just asking you to think about it, maybe everyone could have a group discussion through xfire or msn to determine how keen everyone really is and decide from there?

That's my 10 cents worth anyway....just an idea.

Once again cheers for your effort.

Birdy

cheers cheers cheers cheers cheers cheers cheers cheers cheers cheers cheers cheers cheers cheers cheers

Ok seeing that a lot of people are very interested in keeping it alive these are th positions that need to be filled.

Admin of server (Most likely Matrix will fill this job if interested)
Website admin
Forum admin
Demo's manager (one for Novacap stuff, one for STV or both)
Referee Organiser
Match points appointer/organiser

Thats all I can think about right now. I still wish to retain overall control of the tournament but not to the degree in which I had before.

The sponsor has not yet been contacted about any of this, I will remain the contact for the sponsor.

Discuss away Very Happy

Oh by the way any more flaming towards me will result in a forum ban, continue and you will find out how far I am willing to go.

Website/forum admin could definitely be bundled into one position.

I'm happy to organise referees and/or keep track of the scores.
