About points in Dark Agent tournaments

Post by Imay »

Hello, i am quite surprised to see so many Dark Agent tournaments allowing so many Points with only 2 or 3 players.
I have absolutely nothing against this game, but i was wondering how the reward points are calculated, as it seems to me that there is no reason for such tiny and frequent tournaments to give so many points.

Thanks!

This is due to an issue with tournament prestige being based on number of scheduled rounds and not number of actual rounds. I know it is on sour's list of updates to fix this :-). If there are 4 people in a knockout tournament the round multiplier should be 2 even if it is open to 512. So this would cut the prestige by a factor of 4.5 which gets it more in line with where it should be. Why rudolf keeps opening them to 512 people in the first place I'm not sure...

Yes that was the idea. To drain people to play dark with tourmanent ...
If a master is present in the tourmanent, the prestige grows... and we often are two or three...
But it seems not to change...
I've noticed also we can have an amount ok with a short number of persons... I do that now (8 persons)
