No seriously though I think it depends on what you want to achieve. A tournament with money may bring back some old pros but there's no guarantee they will stay. A campaign could do the same with longer staying power and would attract a wider range of players but you need enough people to run one in the first place and I dunno if we have that at the moment.

Absolutely, that's kinda where I'm at, do I do a tourney and interest people for a little while?

Or do I attempt to run a campaign when there may well be nowhere near enough people?

Anyway I think the problem with the warmap is it's quite confusing and it's hard to see how each battle affects the sector as a whole so people don't really feel engaged with it. The good thing about the GC campaign was each victory showed clearly exactly how much you personally helped the sector. That may just be being biased though I was quite active in that campaign, not so much any more.

I say go for the campaign personally. While I'd love to see a well run tournament, in practice it's never happened in EIR. The only tournament I remember even being concluded ended with a team that won most of its matches through forfeits.

If you don't want to be involved then that's fine.

No need to be so pessimistic, it's not required, thanks Smiley

Shab, I'm gauging player interest, I'm not going to go out of my way to make a bunch of specific rules and lay everything out right now if nobody is actually going to get involved.

So, no, it isn't clear what I'm going to do yet, because I haven't fully decided myself. Comments like

are not helpful and don't particularly make me want to do it, and I would appreciate if you didn't post such things.

Now, if you can bring me 12+ players for a tournament and 20+ players for a campaign, then I'll lay you down some rules and schedules etc.

I mean I know Obama was the first one in EiR to get a card. and tbfh the Race card is pretty OP. but Romney has the K.K.K., those guys seem to camo anywhere. So OP units from both sides.

Something that nobody on the dev team felt like doing so how easy it would be is irrelevant. Now back to topic.


Anyway Schmidt, if we can find the players for it this sounds like a lot of fun.
