Subject: Tournament Idea

Hi all, all this talk about tournaments got me thinking. Do we have any
official rules for tournaments from FASA (maybe it's been mentioned, but
I haven't read all the tourny posts)?

here's an idea I came up with:

games of 3-4 players each.
There isn't a set number of reptation to win the game, instead, you play
until each player has gotten 30 turns.
after the game, the person at each table with the highest reputation
earned for the game plays each other and go down the list in order(in the
case of ties, roll a die to see who advances to which table). Actually
who you play next is unimportant as long as your opponents are new.

after so many rounds of 30 turns, the person with the highest repuation
earned is the winner of the tourny. With this tournament style, Saeder
Krupp could actually win the tournament. :P (remember to add the rep
earned by all S.Krupps that come into play!)

the number of turns played is untested, I picked 30 because 30 was the
average number of daysd in a month and each round of the tournament could
emulate a month in the shadows. *shrug* just a thought, any comments?

other tourny ideas?

any body compiling tourny suggestions? I'd like to see them if anyone
has!

later...
