RE: My new project to help new players: Creating tournaments!
You are viewing a single comment's thread:
It won't work. IF you create any meaningful amount, the players that played for years with champion level decks will come to farm your tournament with their multiple accounts.
I wrote about it here, how the game doesn't let you limit the rating or who can join your game. You're only allowed to let EVERYONE play, therefore these 'noobs' you wish to help will just lose to long time players.

The 'novice' league is just a joke. The company hasn't created the game so you can help anyone except the most experienced players. THey will all join. 50000 dec prize is juicy for them.
Won't it be great to see players with 500,000 power card collections and 3000+ ratings winning your touraments? That will be such an accomplishment. Thanks for donating to the top players!
I'm glad to see you have it all figured out @lifesavings. I guess time will tell if your wealth of knowledge regarding her plan and the new changes enacted (plus of course your crystal ball) is correct. I'm willing to bet you won't be making this same statement in 6 months, but of course neither of us will know until she tries. Let's see!
LMAFO what's there to see? She creates a tourament it doesn't limit who she can let in. players with 4000 rating points can join.
They will be using the 'same cards' doesn't mean they are 'NOVICE'
The whole game is setup to farm people doing exactly what she's doing. She is donating to top players period. Nothing built into the game that stops them from joining. Have fun giving your 50000 DEC to player with 1,000,000 collection value decks.
4000 rating points? really? hmmm lets see in a few days ;)
I like your mindset to protect the little guys, but you're pretty sure that you have everything figured out. If you should be wrong here, then you might want to realize that things do change.
ps... there are things that are definitely built in the game that stops them from joining, but you'll see soon enough if you pay attention! ;)
You're very condescending. You want to bet? Really are you serious about that? I have 20+ years gaming and programming exp myself. Bots are allowed in this game. Enough said. They will totally ruin it with the grace of game makers. They are working to build up as we speak. Every day that goes by, it gets worse.
I only found her post here, because I saw it after posting my warning about bots:

Have fun 6 months from now in your botfarm game winning all the ladders and entering all ur touraments once they're refined LOL.
Failed game im sorry you're wasting your time here. At least im helping people by warning them. SO, bet? How much?
I'm condescending? omgosh... did you read your reply to her post? Please look in the mirror.
Sure I'll bet , definitely would be happy to take your money. Hit me up on discord and we'll arrange for something that doesn't hurt more than your ego! @davemccoy#2479
And before you contact me, please be aware that there are things that change. So while you have a limited experience and think you've figured it all out, I'm giving you fair notice that there have been changes and your conclusions may want to be adjusted.
Whether the game succeeds (or not) is dependent on many factors. I'm not going to trash your own post, because what you think is of course your own opinion. The only reason I addressed your negative condescension towards her efforts is you were out of line with a bad set of facts. Its one thing to be negative, but being negative with a limited set of information and not knowing the facts on SOMEONE ELSE's post is something I couldn't let stand. And on top of that the ironic thing is she is trying to solve the problem you are bitter about. Who knows, if you have a clear mind and willing to see things in a balanced fashion, maybe you will even rethink your thesis and join the game again! I will be happy to delegate you cards if you choose to go that route too! I'm sure with your 20+ years of gaming experience you could do really well!!! :)
In this first one, I made this mistake, and players from all leagues can participate, but in the next one, I will set up so that players from higher Leagues need to pay a very high fee to participate.
Okay, they can create a Novice account to play, but the prizes for each tournament are limited to 1000 DEC for the top 4, so not everyone will have all this work to earn a value that I believe is not very high for them. What do you think?
Yeah. I understand your point at view. I had seen the same issues in Axie Infinity game. Make a good economic ecosystem in a game is a huge problem. I think we all are learning togheter in this new movement. The solution in my point of view is not only restriction politics but it is necessary to find an equation where that 1% see more health in contribute with the ecosystem than take vantage of it above others. While the developments team don't understand how to find nash equilibrium in your games. It is going to repeat several times. What @marianaemilia did contribute too much with the commmunity and growing of the game but it is necessary that 1% who control the game see that kind of iniciative is more profitable than not doing it. Only the game team development can do the necessaey changes for now. It is left over wait and believe for us. But without ephoria and with two feets on the ground.
awesome answer and I completely agree. I think you nailed every point perfectly!
