day events are too easy to achieve, especially if individuals are on here all day and all night, doesn't prove anything, make them more challenging, like if you were to have micro tournaments, make them very minimal amount of points. Make the actual hourly tournaments worth more points so it actually feels like being worthy of winning and make marathons worth more than what they already are.

No need scrap em entirely just 1 or 2 an hour, which in return might generate more interest in the bigger hourly ones. Like how it used to be.

I'm pretty sure 1 or 2 micros an hour as well as 10 normal tournaments or however many there is wouldn't be quite how it used to be. I don't think it would make much of a difference getting rid of micros completely as there's already far too many tournaments without them.

Do you struggle winning normal tournaments is that why you don't want them completely scrapped?

No not at all, some people don't have time to play a full tournament plus the micros cater for ALL and not those who deem them useless. Someone new to the site can enter a micro, feel they have accomplished something and who knows may even encourage them to enter the bigger tournies.

I can win tournaments if I want, just whether can be bothered.

I guess that's why there are speed tournaments. I think most new members will want to play some normal games first to get used to it before entering straight into a tournament, but when they find it virtually impossible to get a game they don't bother coming back, scrapping loads of tournaments would force more people to create games then new members may stick around. It's never going happen tho anyway so It's a waste of time bothering really.

Stop the newbies from playing tournaments again, all these 'newbies' who play tourneys just to get their rank up to a good level is annoying.

Alterations are going to be made shortly.

They're putting in more micros

OOh! What sort of changes? Can you divulge any morsel of information for us to feast upon?

*like

Certainly! Click the spoiler for a list of changes that are in the works:

Hook line and sinker we wait with baited breath for these changes!

Question: in all the years these changes/updates are kept quiet. Why? I find it rather pathetic. Surely it's better to show people what's upcoming and what not so we can get excited or leave lol. It's like admin and mods love knowing info we don't but it gets found out anyway as some will tell me stuff and il tell others. The communication on here could be vastly improved which can only help. Said this for years though. Enjoy your changes people lol. I'm sure it's worth living for

How about when creating a game of straight, being able to type in the required figure to get to?

So instead of the game always finishing at 35, finishing at 50, 100, 1000 if you really want?

1000 oh my Gosh that would be funny, I think the winning constraints could be modified according to the players ability. That would be good so a pro their matches have to finish by minimum 50 points or a break of 50. Would be more challenging but with their ability shouldn't be a prob.

A 1000 point game would take forever haha

I was just trying to exaggerate the point, but I think something like would be very easy to implement into the system, the same way as you choose how many people are in a killer room, you choose how many points you have to get to win. as a game of straight between 'been' and dvz would usually be 1 run, but if it was first to 100 say, it would put more pressure on trying to hit a very high run, because the other player is very capable of catching up...

^^ that is just an extreme example though
