Welcome, Knights!

This is the place to be if you want to ask questions or post feedback regarding our eighth tournament, "The People's Champ".

Please do not ask any questions that have already been answered in official posts already, we want to keep this thread "clean" for relevant discussion of the tournament.  For that same reason, we kindly ask that there be no off-topic chat on this thread.  Anything not related to the tournament is considered off-topic. =)

What we would like to see here, in addition to your questions, are suggestions about how to improve this tournament for future events.  If you think there is a better format we should be using, let's hear it.  If you disagree with the method of entry or want to see a different bracketing, we're open to suggestions.

To clarify the line on "exploits" in terms that the players have requested in the past: Auto Shot is not okay, grabs are okay, steps are okay, Dark Assassin's "air otto" is not considered an auto shot since it cuts off at 5 hits; any more would make it unauthorized.  Infinite combos which do not terminate at 5 hits (lire otto, for example) will be disqualified if they exceed 5 hits.

Do it 4 times, leave the spot, come back, repeat?

Curiously, what happens if someone gets an overwhelming number of votes, but states that they do not wish to participate?

Will their spot just be given off as a bye?

Will the voters be allowed to re-cast their vote?


Not that I'd do that!  I'm excited for this tournament :) I hope I get in.

If a player formally declines their nomination, the spot will be given to the next in line in terms of either number of votes or time of last received vote.  Voters will not be allowed to re-cast their vote under any circumstances.  If you think the person you want to vote for might not want to play, you might want to cast your vote for someone else. :P

We're giving you all week to vote for a reason, feel free to take the time to snoop around.

mm I see, and if they simply don't show up?  Same solution, or bye?  (I'd assume a bye, but can't hurt to be sure)


Also....

I just re-read this:

 

GMLoki:

PLEASE NOTE: In order to cast a vote, your account must have been registered before April 9th, 2009. You must have a valid Grand Chase play account and forum account all in good standing (if your Play account or your forum account is banned, you may not cast a vote).  As well, the player you nominate must obviously be eligible to play, so take the time to learn if their forum or play account is banned before you waste your vote!

 

So I'm guessing that means, we can nominate people who are forum banned, but not in-game banned?

Muahahahhaa.

If you nominate someone who is forum banned, they will not be eligible to play, since your forum and play account must be in good standing to participate in a tournament.  Therefore, the vote would be wasted.

If a nominated player does not decline their nomination before the bracket is posted, and simply does not show up, it would result in a bye.

Oh...  The wording made me think that voters must have a good standing in-game and forum account, however the nominated must only have a good standing in-game account...  I should have made the distinction between "eligible" and "capable" :P

drop Okay, I guess I'm not voting for Fuchsia after all T_T thanks for the clarification.
