Wouldn't it be cool if there was one tournament that everybody could play for just one time to see who is the truly undisputed champion...
Just an idea.

But we have one on-going tourney that we're all invloved in every day and the top palyer table is a far better guide to who is raelly the top player. In a knock out competition even the top player could have an off day. In any case, such a huge knockout tourney would take too many months or years to complete and players are joining all the time.

Originally posted by UncleAdamExactly. I was gonna post that but now u say it...
then alot would finish there games fast (auto T/O's)π
And even without the games going fast from auto TOs couldn't Russ figure out who the active players in the top 2000 and enter them.
Russ could also send people a private message asking them if they wanted to be in it.
Originally posted by CFCWell, maybe he can do that automaticly, but I don't think he likes to send 2000 messages!π And when a game isn't yet started, you can't time anyone out! Only send a reminder and delete!
