proposal for a new EOL battle mode

Post by VADIK »

guys how you look at it.. to create a function play-off battle mode in EOL.
given level... then played a certain number of people, and after each level is eliminated, one participant, and so then the first place, think looks funny and interesting....
necessary as that to come up to a certain number of registered participants and was not allowed late registration after the start

Ah, like the elimination cups of old. Sounds fun. It won't be possible to do in EOL I guess, but it should be doable in elma2.

One thing that might be a problem is you need to have many levels for such a balle type, and designers shouldn't be able to play their own levels either. The easiest way to do this should probably be to have 2 levels for each stage except for the final level, when there are only 2 players left. This way even if you design a level for the 32-player stage, you'd be able to play another designer's levels since there are 2 for every stage. Otherwise you'd have a major advantage.

But if there are 32 participants this would require (2 * 4 [32-16-8-4]) + 1 [final] = 9 levels, so you'd have to have a system to gather all these levels and distribute them in some way.

You can still play every level as though it was a normal battle, even if you're not part of the elimination cup per se. It's just that if 2 people who are playing against each other finish 6th and 12th respectively, the one who finishes 12th loses. Someone who's not playing in the "cup" can still play and win the battle regardless.

I think the whole 1vs1 thing will only really work if you have a level per pair, and that's just too much work. If all pairs are playing the same level and no. 10 proceeds because he was playing no. 11 but no. 5 doesn't proceed cus he was playing no. 2 it makes the whole thing somewhat superficial. Could work without pairs though, just top 16 proceeds in first lev, then top 8 etc.

I theory it could be done now on the site, just start as normal battles and on the site you add the battles which are used, and it makes some results from that.

tl;dr

Tournament mode.

You can see only one other person because you are paired with them.

Whoever wins gets matched to next round. Whoever loses is not included in next levels.

Continue until no kuski but one left.

He winner.

There goofu

hope helpd'e
