Does anybody else struggle a little bit with purple being part of the "warm colours" (red, yellow, orange) during team games? My brain tends to associate purple with the "cold colours" and as a spectator I often find that I have to remind myself which team purple is on. Given that hardly anyone...

I’m confused by your whole approach here. Weren’t you trying to make Alperen look more appealing to potential sponsors? Ever heard the expression, “with friends like these, who needs enemies”?

Just get rid of all the civs that start with B, it’s getting confusing.

Oh didn’t even notice that! That’s wonderful, thanks :)

Hello! I’m interested in resubmitting a map that I originally made for a different tournament. That map had some improvements made by (I believe) the tournament admin, mostly around fairer resources spawns. Is it okay to submit the improved version even if it isn’t 100% my work? Thanks.

Muisca (Colombian civ, last to be conquered by Spanish); Polynesians or Māori; Thule (proto-Inuits, aka Skraelings); Zimbabwe; Tibetans (never going to happen but would be nice). Please no more European civs.

Why would anyone douche in a 1v1v1, isn’t that just gifting the third player the win?

Great event! Obviously, the quality of a one-map event owes a lot to the quality of the map. Arabia has historically been the best map, but recent versions have taken a lot of the shine off. This version of Arabia was brilliant and restored my faith in fun, agile, aggressive play. Hats off to...

I’d agree with the fellow posters who emphasize simplifying the messaging and format a bit more. (DM me if you’d like another pair of eyes on the rulebook and/or supplementary materials – I was a copy editor in a previous life and would be happy to help out, gratis.) I don’t know if...

Interesting, thanks. I might be wrong again, but from looking at the methodology here it seems like players can't actually lose points from bad results, so this system rewards players who participate in a high volume of tournaments (e.g. ACCM). In this sense the Elo system is better because of...

This site is a fantastic resource, especially the head to head feature. The problem with its rankings (and with robo’s list, from what I can tell*) is that it weights all tournaments equally. So going out in the first round of an S tier tournament can easily be offset, points-wise, by going deep...

Based on that logic, MbL would have to be second, since he beat Vinchester and was only knocked out by TheViper, the eventual champion. Of course, MbL also lost to Sitaux, who lost to Liereyy, who lost to Vinchester, so maybe we should just accept that any of the top players can beat each other...

Definitive rankings are basically impossible. But I think we can identify "tiers" based on what would or wouldn't count as an upset. Beating someone in a higher tier is an upset, beating someone in a higher subtier is a slight upset, matches between players in the same tier are only upsets if...

Didn’t even have to remove his wrist brace.

Yet another very intelligent post.
