16 Men : Elimination direct or not ? Mar 22, 2017, 4:55 PM
zombie33 - The 16 men tournament is actually a double elimination tournament with a 4th place playoff.
- This means we update for each tournament the top 4.
- But they're is a problem : the fourth place is always very slow to end for vatious reasons, but one of them is : the extra match to play for this player (maximum 5 match to play instead of 4)


I suggest to do 16 men tournament with a single elimination like the 8 men.
- It would be a top 3 instead of a top 4.
- With this system playing two new 16-men will be like playing 1 old 16-men but people have more chance to be in top : 0.34 against 0.25
- Tournament will finish faster
- We can do more tournament without increasing the number of game.

because as it has been said already, few of us will be motivated doing so many matches for a useless fourth place in the looser bracket, better spend some time in a new tournament.

Doing more tournament with the same amount of game, more top for mtg-peasant and more chance to finish each tournament before the end of the month : it's the best way.

GalacticPresident Apr 27, 2017, 11:56 AM Dear fellow players,

Zombie and I have decided to not have a loser bracket for the 16men anymore. A 5-round tournament has proven too long to be finished within a month. Starting with May, the 16-men will be a simple single-elimination tournament with 4 rounds.

Thank you
