I'd agree on a all random race & hero tournament. But the suggestions u made are just bullshit ;)

SO MAKE BETTER SUGGESTIONS, JESUS.

Why are you people being such negative nancies?

If you're OK playing 1 FML game per 2 weeks, then cool, just say so, "I don't wanna play any more FFAs, ebo, go away". But if you are open to a secondary small tournament that's different, then make suggestions, as to what you'd like to see there.

Suggestion: Ban orc and human races, 12 way FFA games, no taverns, game speed set to slowest

Don't lock team! (sc 1 style!)

you can actually team with someone, even if only to show him your gold count :D

I'd like to try out the all-workers variant I'm working on. Testers welcome.

Also, disallow chopping or mining wood

I vote that the only units allowed, regardless of what racial hero choice you make:

- necros
- wagons
- shamans
- docs

Cancel that, I've done some research and found it to be too limiting to playstyles, let's instead make a regulation where after every 10 food, you need to choose 3 food worth of units and kill them off. And every 30 food, you need to send your 2nd hero (1st hero if you don't have a 2nd hero) to the nearest Tavern and keep him in this "penalty box" for 5 minutes. If other heroes are in the Penalty box, a battle can ensue, but you can't start ressurecting your hero until the 5 minutes have expired.

K since either nobody gives a shit or won't bother posting, I'm going to try the idea with workers of all races present at the start, so you can build up your main tree + any other racial tree for any hero/unit combo. Going to test it out in customs on garena, then if it looks fun, will conduct a short (4-16 players depending on how many want in) tournament with a cash prize.

posting in this thread as well: update

OK, it's ready.

http://www.ffareplays.com/maps/%286%29SilverpineForestAllRaces.w3x

I also increased slightly the gold in the mines. Would appreciate help testing it out sometime (I'm leaving town for the weekend, so maybe next week?)

If we figure it sux and leads to boring games, I'll scrap the tournament idea and think of something else.

But I just can't imagine how it can get boring... the hero/unit combos are endless and you can't blame imba anymore!!!!

Did you implement my ideas? Because I have a new one:

Every 57 food, you must alt tab, open the FML website, and PM a random FFA player with a 4 paragraph long essay.

I'm really excited about these ideas, hopefully we'll get some feedback generated!

Darkness I second all your ideas, but if they aren't all implemented i'm boycotting this tournament.
