Title: GokoDom III: Third Theason Thign-up Thread (POSTPONED ONE WEEK)
Post by: Kirian on January 20, 2014, 09:29:42 pm
IT IS THYME

GokoDom III is here.  And if you want my sage advice, you should spice* up your winter by joining us!  Don't just commit parsley; say you're in like you mean it.

(Screw you, rosemary, you aren't easy to pun with.   And who decided to treat pine needles like a spice in the first place?  Seriously.)

We will start in 3 weeks, on 10 February.  Signups will be open until 07 February at 00:00 EST.  We will use almost the same rules we used in GokoDom II, as they seemed to work out well.  Expect to play seven total rounds, plus more if you get into the playoffs.

Assuming we have more than 64 players, I intend to extend the playoff round by one round, in other words, taking the top 16 rather than the top 8.  In the same vein, however, I am going to cap entries to 128 players.  First come, first served, except for top 8 from last season, or champion from any prior season of IsoDom or GokoDom.

If you'd like to sign up, please indicate your interest below, and indicate whether or not you have all the sets on Goko.  Don't worry about whether you have some, or which promos you have; either all sets or not all sets.

*Parsley, sage, rosemary, and thyme are all herbs, not spices.

I maybe cayenne join.  It might be too much of a thyme commitment though.

Edit: 

There once was a shark whose name was Bruce
There were those who feared he would get loose

He swam through the ocean and through the sea
Trying to be the shark he knew he could be

His game was Dominion and his passion to win
But unfortunately for now he need time to swim

So look to the future for his time is to come
Maybe next tournament he will be number one

Sorry guys, I'm not gonna be able to make this work.  Hope you enjoyed the poem as penance.

Just as a question, if we can't make a game because of lack of time, do we auto forfeit? I'm guessing all the rules are on the gokodomII thread.

Just as a question, if we can't make a game because of lack of time, do we auto forfeit? I'm guessing all the rules are on the gokodomII thread.

As with every other tournament, you're expected to set up a time with your opponent.  If you don't show up for the agreed-upon time, and your opponent does, the opponent can claim a forfeit.  If this happens early in the week, you should first try to set up a new time.

If for some reason you can't find a suitable time with your opponent, you both receive a draw-by-default.

If you will be unavailable for a week at some point, notify me in advance and you receive a bye-by-request.

Both of those two results are nominally worse than a draw--they each award 1 point and 1 forfeit.  Forfeits, however, are only used as a tie-breaker for determining final ranking, not in determining pairing during the tournament rounds.

You can take part having no sets. You just risk playing a match of base Dominion if your opponent has no sets as well, though chances are not that big as most players have sets, especially most of the higher ranked ones and I guess you'd play most rounds against them.

I think it states somewhere in the rules that players without sets are given a special indicator and players with sets are given another indicator. Efforts are made to match players who have no sets with players who do.

Exactly this.

I think there were maybe four or five matchups total in Season 2 where two players with no sets were matched up.  Possibly fewer.  You'll notice the indicator as a .1 or .2 in the calculation for ordering once the spreadsheet is public.

And playing Base-only might be good for Marin, since Throne Room is that much more likely to be in the kingdom :)

Does he not like Throne Room?

He has a reputation for using it for any engine even in the absence of Village or Cantrip.

Now, two questions:

2) who am I playing first?
Thanks again :)

We will start in 3 weeks, on 10 February.  Signups will be open until 07 February at 00:00 EST.  We will use almost the same rules we used in GokoDom II, as they seemed to work out well.  Expect to play seven total rounds, plus more if you get into the playoffs.

1) what is the schedule?
Each week 1 round, starting at 10th February. Number of rounds depends of # of participans, see rules.
2) who am I playing first?
You need to wait before sign-ups are over, then after some time Kirian will post pairings for the 1st round.

Post by: A Drowned Kernel on January 28, 2014, 06:14:40 pm
Although Kirian said he would cap the number of players at 128 and we're well past 64 sign-ups so we're pretty much confirmed for 7 rounds/weeks.

Yes; we currently have 102 signups, so definitely 7 weeks.

BTW, any specific reason to cap signups on 128? I know that with more we can have more than one player win all matches if 7 rounds are played, but with a cutoff to top 16 and single elimination round I don't think this causes any problem.

I actually considered 100, and entirely because of calculation time.  In fact, I'm likely to try to hire* an assistant this time around just to double-check me, as I made several mistakes in scoring last season (none of which should have contributed to standings).  Unfortunately, Challonge can't handle things like requested byes and the like, doesn't handle dropouts well, and obviously can't figure out to pair sets with no sets.  If I had more time, I'd try to write something for myself...

(http://imgs.xkcd.com/comics/automation.png)

...or perhaps not, but I don't actually have the time to write such an app yet anyway.  Perhaps someday, when I have time, I can write a challenger to Challonge, but that's... a while in the future.

*And by hire, I mean request a volunteer to work for tips.

For the record, regarding the addon:

(1) You are strongly encouraged to use the addon.

(2) The default is #vpoff; the point counter portion of the addon is like sex:  Turn it on only if both players specifically consent, and ideally work out consent beforehand so there's no pressure at game time.

If the other person doesn't want point counter, can I write down scores on a piece of paper while I play?  I would assume not, but I want to check.

No, that would be the equivalent of writing down the scores manually if you think about it.

No it's not. The pairing will attempt to put people without sets paired with people who do have sets. There is only a small chance you will play a game without any sets except base set.
