The long slow tournaments (Heat example)

....but i dont think he will know.....

Instead of hazarding a guess at what I think, maybe read the 2 replies I've made in this thread, and the inbox-conversation we had in Nov 2024 when you messaged me why tournaments called 'the long game' are long, and I explained they live up to their name and you don't have to sign-up to them if you don't want like the listed settings. Unsure why you're still obsessing about tournaments you don't even sign up to 15 months later.

Naming a tournament the correct way about how long it takes, does not mean you make a good tournament setup. That is what you dont read very well to the comments.

I am making this comment again, because you still make bad tournament setups (now even worse than before with the 90 days) in my opinion and nothing has changed with your thinking proces about setup, that is why.

in my opinion

ok, thanks for publicly sharing and trying to instigate a pile-on on me.

This isn't a scientific or political matter. When you don't like the way someone makes their projects, the polite thing to do is move on rather than try to change their mind. Why even care what other people do.

Why even care what other people do.

Because bad tournaments reflect on all tournaments for someone who is new to them. There have been other threads where someone has a bad tournament experience and comes here to say "hey, are all tournaments like this?" We have to assure them that, no, not all tournaments are that badly configured. Given that only a small sliver of BGA users come to the forums (based on comparing BGA IDs to forum IDs), it stands to reason that there are people who have a bad experience, don't have the tournament scene clarified through the forum, and just assume all tournaments are like that and avoid them.

Not always the right thing to do.
For me that sounds also to walk away when you see a problem.
And as pointed out by others, a bad tournament can reflect on all tournament feelings.

That's a very anti-art view. It's not the job of any one tournament to reflect positively for the majority of people. People do their thing, and if you don't like it you don't have to play/watch/listen whatever.
