Newbies allowed in all tournaments to increase tournament players and to encourage new users to play the tournaments and therefore play more often. Unfortunately, you might meet someone who has reset an account - but I was wrong to alter the tournament format around this case.

More tournapoints available for longer tournaments eg marathons. Bonus depending on average games per round across the tournament.

Average Games - Bonus
1 - 0%
2 - 25%
3 - 50%
4 - 75%
5 (or more) - 100%

Some fixes, occasional tournament room not being removed at game end, link to report message page, links and formatting in tournament page. Also show TournaPoints available in the tournament page.

Lovely, sorry guys, i reset earlier, but i love this, will be entering a lot more tournament, and will be on more

well done nick

nice little change Nick well done

It will certainly increase the amount of tournament entrants but could see a lot of players reseting now.

I like the % system, but definitely not the newbies change.

I'll mostly stick to ranked games from now on. Can't see how the change is a good thing for the ranking system overall.

Should of gone to specsavers

Brilliant idea, however there may be a flaw.

If you win against or lose to a newbie in the tournament, do you still only win or lose a small amount of points?

If not then this isn't a very clever idea and will stop alot of people entering tournaments...

well he missed a sitter against me.. and i swear to god, everyone here who is moaning about rank, always says rank doesn't matter lmao

Nobody is moaning...

Anyway your just gonna get serial reseters like yourself entering tourney and taking 8 to 10 points of higher ranked players lol hardly any point of higher ranked players entering...

you say your better than me, and im turd, so whats the problem in facing me in a tournament

Thats banter that we have in pm lol

Your just slightly better than the average newbie thats why

I'll moan about rank. And I've never said ranking doesn't matter.

Not including you Seb.. was aiming at tinie to be honest

You wanna practice your aiming then

ohhh shhh

See no problem here.

In a normal game broxiboy would have lost between 0.745 and 0.754 I think so it has been doubled which happens in tournaments as everyone knows. If you are too scared to lose rank don't enter tournaments.

oops i have literally just noticed he lost 1.5 hahaha thats virt saying he took 8 off him xD

If he was a regular, adept/intermediate player, then broxiboy would of lost a hell of alot more...

So if i'm 800 ranked and say seb is a newbie ranked 675 how many points am I now going to lose?

0.5 odd
