Hedgewars Olympics?
Mon, 2011-10-03 02:57
Guys- how about a SCHEDULED biannual olympics tournament? I think there are enough players now to make this work 
Some of my ideas:
Tribes- Groups of people of a specific skill level for certain game mode:
Possibly have section on website for this?
(Players can create tribes- give it a logo and name)
(Players can (draft) or ask players to join tribe)
(Players can ask to join other tribes)
Tribes will be shown on website with top scoring on top and least on bottom.
Individual players points will also be shown like this.
(Stats on site)
Videos will be posted of tribe and player matches.
Top scoring teams/ tribes get bragging rights!
Not sure how all of this will work- just throwing out some ideas
Please Comment!
I like your idea. But I'll prefer a Hedgewars World cup. Like the Davis Cup on tennis

Yes, that actual sounds better
and categories of matches: shoppa, default, racer, pro etc... with a certain number of point by categories,
ex : victory in shoppa gives to your tribes, 2 points
in pro, 3 points
....
a mix of a world cup and olympics games, each tribes have to do, 5 (+ or -, number to fix)default match + 3 shoppa matches + 1 pro matches etc .....
we have to decide also if a player can play in different categorie, and can do several match in the same categories.....
(sorry for my english if it's not enough precise and understandable)
My idea is to build something similar as did the teeworld. Form a group of 5 players per country. There is already a problem because we do not know how many players there are or how many countries are interested. (but as for everything there is a solution).Once we have already formed clans. For example:
Argentina Klan: Randy, CaZaMandA, DJ.LisT, JuanLKD and BB.
Russia Klan: ....
They will play 3 games in 1vs1 modes (Default, The Specialist and shoppa) and then two 2v2 matches (Default and any other). Who get 3 of 5 points will won he round.
But make a good tournament it's hard.
(sorry if the english is bad)

Yes that could be a good idea, but it would be great to include everyone in this. If there is only 5 players per country, many players could feel left out. If you want though, you could name your tribe/clan "Argentina" but I do not think that should be a necessity.
Also thank you again randy and sphrix for your input.
That isn't a problem. Because you can have max. 2 clan per country, also you can change the players round for round. In the forum we have a lot of language: French, Germany, Russian, Italian, Polish, Spanish (can be a lot of countries) so let's think on those countries for now.
We done a Spanish Clan, here is the link http://www.hedgewars.org/node/3187

I guess that could work. I was thinking something more like this though (but w/o limit on lenght of tribe/clan names):
We can leave it up to the community to decide which one they like better
if it is by country it could be less cool than we can hope, every country doesn't have the same number of members, there is more english than french maybe....
but let decide the people
That is exactly what I was thinking Sphrix, we want everyone in the Hedgewars community to be included
Good point, but whit only 2 clans per country (5 players on a clan) and there is a lot of country who talk english. But language is not important is important the country. And who are left of those country can join the EuroClan or AmericaClan.

So, how this idea is going ?
i thought about a format :
number of team, no really limit
player in a team : to determinate
in the Hedgeholympics, the most hedgewars mode have to be played, to determinate the better team
2 round each time
Default mode 1vs1 (4hog each) (same players for the 2 round ?)
Highlander (all the team 1hog each, would give 8 player a team)
random weapons (1vs1 2vs2 ?? give a suggestion )
the specialist (suggestion for the number of player and hog ? )
space invasion 2vs2 1hog each player
tumblr (suggestion ?)
shoppa 4vs4 1hog each player
a Race ( no racer mode because, we need the same race for everyone) map : trophyrace ?
thinking with portal 1vs1 4hog each player
(suggestion ? )
Each team have to play against all other team
Prize : Glory, graphics gift, map with your name like trophyrace or shoppaking, a hat ? first we need an artist .....
one table for each mode played
first E, second A, B, C, D ..... this is the classement for one mode, then after all mode have been played, we calcul the final score ( Eshoppa+Ehiglander etc....)
(table problem sorry , but it's just to give a idea of the format )
there is 9 game mode to be played, so we can set a limit of 9 player in a team
the awesome people (clan/team/association) and the MBC clan, are certainly more than 9 ?? so if all of them want to participate it will be a issue ....
what do you think about this idea ?
I think this'd be a good idea.
My take on numbers, numbers indicate hogs, not teams:
Default: 4v4 medium map
Highlander: 5v5v5 large map, or 4v4v4v4
Random Weps: 4v4 medium map
Specialists: 3v3 medium map, or 8v8 large map
Space invasion: no comment
Tumblr: no comment
Shoppa: 4v4 or 4v4v4 on Ropes
Trophy race: 3v3
No portals

we could find a good solution for number
actually i just think, it should be less mode to be play,
the most important, the most played, 4-5 mode ( default, higlander, shoppa..... and ?)
and we could also make a extra olympics games, after the classic mode, we could make a tournament with other mode....
idea about the number of player in a team ? i would say no more than 4
