How to Organise a Tournament (2)
Here is the second edition of How to Organise a Tournament, here we will explain step by step how to organise and run your very own tournament, part 2 is about creating your first post.
(Tournament Handbook)
Part 2
So you have your tournament design worked out, now you want to post it ans start looking for players! I create my first post in the new post window as I can add colours and links easily, it also works well to do it in word, it depends how good your spelling is! Anyway, when creating your post, look at what other organisers have put for inspiration. This is the list of things that your post must include:
Title
Game settings
Theme
Number of Players
Game Type
Extra Info (Deadbeats, ect.)

Some organisers like to put the information all in one big paragraph, others like to split is up with colourful headings and subheadings. Try both and decide which one you prefer.

How to Organise a Tournament (1)
Here is the first edition of How to Organise a Tournament, here we will explain step by step how to organise and run your very own tournament, part 1 is about designing your tournament.
(Tournament Handbook)
Part 1
So you want to create a tournament? Well this is where you start! First you have to decide upon the theme and format of your tournament, for a first time organiser we recommend a simple tournament that specialises in a specific map and settings, like a quick 16 player classic tournament, only 16 pm's to send, if you make it 4 player, the winners go into the final that's only 5 games to make and collect the results for, how much easier could it be!

you get to run a simple tournament on fun settings and establish yourself in the world of tournament organising. For the tournament after that, you could mess about with the settings, try 1v1 or create a themed/ bigger tournament, once you have taken your baby steps the possibility's are endless!

spinwizard,

I have merged these two threads because we don't need to have a new thread for each issue. If you make a future issue, simply copy your last one (found in the first post now) and make an "archive" post in the thread. Then edit your first post to include the most recent issue.

Regards, Optimus Prime
