GCCG Tournament!!!

[Kralik]

   I don't like posting decklist before the matches for similar reasons than Manuel and i guess GCCG can help us with that    I just wanna know if people want to keep the same deck for all matches or if you can change the deck every game too add even more "unpredictableness" to the matches.

What are the reasons behind forcing people to keep the same deck? I suppose you could hear from another player what kind of deck an opponent has and then prepare an anti-deck accordingly? BTW, I'm in.

I'm for keeping the same deck.

[Manuel]

choosing one deck and sticking on it for the whole tournament makes the deck choice much more crucial (since you have to think about what is people generally playing, not only your next opponent) Also, most of us have played each other a lot in GCCG... For now I agree that keeping the same deck all tournament is the best. Maybe in the future we can propose a more complicated format.

Of course, that is just what I like best, I will be in no matter what

I think we should all use the same deck and pm our decks to Pepin and have him post them at the start of the tourney.
That would allow us to see what other people are using without changing our decks to match.
Also, that would make it easier to see if people are slightly tweaking their decks every time they play.

Well, the register option will show that.

/rd will regsiter a deck, and when you play it it wil show registered. And when someone tries to alter a registered deck it wont be registered anymore.

I also liek the surprise option. I dont want to analyse my opponents deck and decide what to bid, going first, knowing to save certain cards for key minions and so on.

Seconded. Even though I've posted a bunch of my decks here, I would hate to think that my opponent could analyze my deck and strategy before playing me.

  Well, i'm in favour of not showing deck list to opponents prior to the end of tourney because similar reasons already cited here. I think we can stick with the GCCG "register deck" option, that seems very pratical and ensures that players will not change their decks after knowing what their next opponent should be playing.

   So far we have: Pepin; Kralik; Manuel; Ringbearer; Sweet; GateTroll; Clockwork.

   Anyone more? c'mon people, let's join the ranks!

   I think with 8 players we can do a nice tourney

On /rd:

What is there to prevent registering a second deck once the tournament has started? I just tested this out and it seems to offer no complaints. A log somewhere of when decks are registered?

[Ringbearer]

I believe wlk can find out how and what. There was a way to check in the mECCG section of GCCG. We use /rd there for every tournament.

[Manuel]

I too second not publishing decklists before the tournament (maybe after, since that gives an idea of what is people playing)

And yes, I think Wlk can give us an answer for that.

[Pepin The Breve]

  What do you people think about watching other players match? It is fun for one way but for the other it allows your opponent to get more knowloge of your deck and since you can't change it i guess that's pretty much an advantage.

[Cw0rk]

Don't watch the other players match, except for the final.

[Not a Zombie]

^agreed

[Gate Troll]

Don't watch the other players match, except for the final.

How do we enforce that? 

[Tempest123]
