Hi don't add me to the list...

You won't get "More at Night" as there are too little people online (33 just checked online)

The thing is.......

.......the amount of tournaments at the moment means that they are mostly competitive.
Increasing the amount would devalue the achievement of a tournament win (especially with ones throughout the night which very few people would enter).
For example: it is a fairly big achievement to win the 'Random Tournament' at the moment as there is currently only one a day. If there was, (for example) ten a day, it would not be a very big achievement at all because of less competition and more winning oppurtunities.

Also, I think that giving an argument as to why there should be more tournaments would be far more productive than a petition: a petition doesn't explain any advantages or disadvantages.

The only tournament that I think should be added is an 'Orinal Marathon Tournament'.

Just because people want it doesn't mean it's best for the site. There has to be reasoning behind it (which you haven't given any for it)

I sign for a Regular and Original Marathon. Reason being we used to have an Original Marathon but now don't, and we have never had a Regular Marathon.

We have an Arcade Marathon Tournament, so why not Regular and Original!

(But i don't think we should have more tournaments, just the schedule should be tewaked)

(See my thread for the idea about alternating marathon Tournaments if you wish)

more at night no chance since we tried this and didnt have enough entries

carom same reason, not enough entries

random is fine as it is for now

speed has enough tournies really

marathon i wouldnt mind a regular and original one

Tournaments already have little meaning as it is. You want to derive its value even more? Shocking.

It is true,

The pinacle achievement on this site is high breaks and tournaments are a secondary achievement. Plus the fact that there are very few on certain times aswell....

On funkypool its a different story tournaments are seen as a very good achievement. There are more people on average throughout the day than snooker at the moment.

But dont worry you are so creeping forward to hourly tournaments I remember the day when there were only 3 lol!

I agree there should be more marathon tournaments. And maybe the same number of tournaments for each table. Now there is alot more arcade than reg and orig, and it seems a bit biased

pool has hourly tournaments and if snooker is gonna be a worldwide televised sport bringing more influence on the internet isnt a bad idea therefore just as much if not more should be improves on snooker than pool to help promote the sport

put me down lads

It's biased because arcade is more popular. Simple logic.
