I'd like to join too. Currently I only have the base cards (there is a small chance this will change).

In order to win a match, you must have won more games from the second seat than your opponent, with a minimum of one second-seat win.

This sounds like a really bad idea to me. If this ruling is used, you cannot win if you go first, you can only lose, because if you win it is not counted. So suppose you play five games, and you win them all, it's still tied (no players have had a second-seat win), and if you lose even once, you're behind. Unless I misunderstand what you mean...

Also, how is the starting player determined at Goko? Randomly?

I only have base set right now but I plan on buying all the sets before the tournament starts.

EDIT: I now have all sets.

I have only base.

I'm willing to give the seat up if there is need for more people that actually have bought the cards to sign up. While I don't want to buy Goko's product, I don't want to annoy people that do either, especially people in this forum. I'd be in favor of people with more cards having priority to sign up (if such a thing is needed), but I'd be strongly against people with more cards having advantage within the tournament.

Hmmm, i dont see any reason not to participate, count me in. Unfortunately i hadnt bought any extra sets yet.

I hope I'm not about to open Pandora's Box but is the goko log prettifier add-on legal for this tournament?

Watno · « **Reply #44 on:** April 01, 2013, 06:42:52 pm »

Why on earth wouldn't it be? It only shows information available anyway.

Well you could say the same thing about the iso extension but not everyone was cool with that. I would expect that the Goko log add-on will be allowed but just want to make sure everyone is aware about it up front.

Kirian · « **Reply #46 on:** April 01, 2013, 07:35:11 pm »

It adds exactly zero information that isn't already available. I'd go so far as to say it's strongly recommended.

I am in.

I have all the expansions, but no promos.

In order to win a match, you must have won more games from the second seat than your opponent, with a minimum of one second-seat win.

I strongly approve of something like this because it helps correct for first player advantage, and having matches end in ties after 6 games is not a problem with Swiss.

One thing to clarify: does a shared victory count as a win or a tie?

The way I am interpreting the description, it would count as a win. So if 5 games were played between A and B, and A wins 2 games outright and B wins 2 games outright (all wins by first player), and the shared victory was when A went first, then the match ends after 5 games and B gets the match win (because B is first to three wins and has won more games from the second seat than A). However, if the first player wins every game outright for the first 5 games, then the match goes to the sixth game, and if the first player again wins the sixth game (so each player has won three games and no player has won from the second seat), then the match ends in a tie.

soulnet · « **Reply #48 on:** April 02, 2013, 12:08:45 am »

I would count ties as ties. The way polk explained seems to give some 2nd seat advantage in some sense.

But I have no sets (unless you count the 3 cards from the redeem card in Dark Ages)
