Complaint mainly comes with Auto Tournament that has big prize, never comes from a low gage star event, the auto tournament engine works the same for any kind out there, it is up to a player to decide to join or not, complaints always come at the last stage of those tournament, no one has come here and describe a potential issue upfront and while joining (settings, map, score reset, etc...), which usually this is when the tournament author could made a change (if he/she is willing to), I'm truly sorry you guys feels that way in regards of the "tie rule", trash settings, and so on but again you decided to join without saying anything at that time, because frustration comes more often at the elimination stage, you then start to realize how things could have been made different, because you also said, that kind of tournament brings mainly descent player, then a descent player would have check the tournament structure before joining and perhaps send a PM to admin?
My friends, I'm not trying to be mean at all, I'm trying to highlight how we all can be part of a solution rather than always pointing an issue without bringing something else that complaint, I would like you to think about what I said above and tell me if my point of view is 100% wrong.

If there is agreement from it, you will then have somehow participate to a solution for the next iteration, and for future participant, this score reset could have been a quick oversight, or just a quick setup that was wanted, don't know, but being myself an auto tournament organizer I can see a little thing could change the setup as a whole, such in this case a box to be checked for the reset by round
... same can be done for the settings, if you wish those to be different, worth to try and ask

Well if you have a red star you re going to join it no matter what obviously... who would sit on 12,5% chances to make an easy 500$?

Mad777 raised this issue with BW and with myself, and three general principles have been agreed:
The Quests should be made fundamentally similar in structure.
Things that look like brackets (2 player with 50% eliminated) should behave like brackets (score reset every round).
Tournaments already under way shouldn't be changed.

So has it been fixed? I know a lot of lower stake tournaments still don't reset score even if they're 1v1 (poly slam, poly escalating, manual blaster, nuclear holocaust)
