I have a few thoughts on this, which I'll outline.

1. As I understand it, this is being proposed as an alternative to the seasonal format.
Because the seasonal format is spread out over time, not everyone likes the ranking system, there are few shows, little motivation, and so on.
But a "regular" tournament is short-term, it runs constantly, it ends and starts again, the motivation is to win, if you don't succeed, you start again from scratch, etc. It looks pretty good. A tournament ranking was discussed somewhere; you could tie the tournament to it. All that's left is to find someone who needs all this. If Valera takes it on himself, he'll create this sandbox, but he's been lazy lately.

2. The system to use depends on the number of participants. For example, what's the point of using a Swiss system for eight people? A round-robin system is better. Although there will probably be more participants... As an option, you could have a fixed number of participants, say 16, and a double-elimination tournament, a kind of sit-and-go – gather 16 people and go.

3. There's no need to reward the winner with an avatar. If the idea takes off, there will be many such winners, which will again devalue the medals. Well, if the organizer wants to offer a symbolic reward... Someone suggested that I organize a commercial tournament, was it Van? There still needs to be some kind of incentive; we need to think about it.

4. I don't like the current format. I would suggest different templates for future tournaments
