Group Stage Tournament Suggestion

2024年Nov20日 23:31 • BananaHarambe • 此建議尚未被開發者分析過:

Yes, please implement the option for only 1 group in group stage. This allows organizers to make a Swiss tournament with a top cut (usually top 8 or 16) followed by single elimination final stage.

2024年Nov21日 18:19 • BananaHarambe • 此建議尚未被開發者分析過:

Single group Swiss plus single elimination top cut is an extremely common tournament format for trading card games and work great for any 2 player game with some luck aspect.

See page 24 in Pokemon tournament rules, all major pokemon TCG and VCG tournaments are run with this format. www.pokemon.com/static-assets/content-assets/cms2/pdf/play-pokemon/rules/play-pokemon-tournament-rules-handbook-03092020-en.pdf

These are common in Magic: the Gathering tournaments as well, with players earning X-1 record or better always advancing to Top 8. This makes Swiss tournaments similar to Double Elimination but way easier to do pairings and brackets. see here blogs.magicjudges.org/rules/mtr-appendix-e/

2025年Sep25日 21:16 • BananaHarambe • 此建議尚未被開發者分析過:

Other tournament formats that greatly benefit from this system:

3p, 4p or 6p Swiss tournaments that want a top cut finals. Current system forces organizers to make 2 or 3 groups which splits the player base for no good reason. Match quality diminishes quickly since players will run out of similar scored opponents quickly and point cutoffs to advance often get messy and unfair.

For example a 3p tournament needs 3 groups to make a finals with 3, 9, or 27 players (1, 3, or 9 per group qualify) because we cannot select only 1 group.

*Because the players are split 3 ways after a few rounds players will run out of similarly skilled opponents and matchmaking will get worse over time. Only HUGE games with 200+ tournament size can overcome this IMO.
*Uneven player counts in each group results in more uneven table sizes or more byes. This is brutal for smaller tournaments especially. For example a 24 player 3p tournament should have 8 tables of 3, but if it is Group Stage with 3 groups it is 6 tables of 3 and 6 byes or 3 tables of 2p.
*Qualifying players from 3 groups instead of 1 big group also results in more messy cutoffs to finals. More players with equal score to the bottom of cutoff will be eliminated and point cutoff may vary between groups.

This is a simple Validation bug. Whith including in pull down "Number of groups" - <1 Group> should be okay.
Example: drive.google.com/file/d/1X_YnabqVdlqgI9eKEjKqfz-gEPh5TTox/view?usp=sharing
I created a tournament that would benefit with only one group in first stage:

Thank you fajitasmx for your technical comments and an excellent example of a 4/5p tournament that would strongly prefer 1 group.

I have campaigned to get the votes from 15 to 81 in the last month so I think this is worth referring to BGA admins or the new community manager.
