I will participate in the bracket.
584985121
I have a suggestion to limit the time for making predictions. For example, 3 rounds before the end of the tournament, so that only really good predictors enter the leaderboard, and not those who paid more.
The last 3 rounds should at least have mandatory correct predictions.

My second suggestion: if there is no winner in the bracket tournament, then the prize pool should be divided either among the top three or half of the pool goes to the winner, and the other half remains with the organizer. Or any other way to divide it.

Question: it says that you need to make 2-3 predictions per round, so if you always make 2, the chance of making a mistake is less compared to those who will make 3. Why not a fixed number of predictions? And can you, for example, always make only one prediction? Or will the number of predictions decrease in accordance with the decrease in the number of participating players? I suggest making a fixed number of predictions and reducing their number in stages. For example, start with 3, then 2, and in the last rounds, which do not involve rematches, make only one. Or, if you leave the number of predictions optional, then at the end of the tournament, if there are several winners, distribute the prize pool not equally among all, but depending on the number of correct predictions.

Now a little about the transparency of bets:
since everyone has 24 hours to place bets, it is necessary that the bets are announced publicly and cannot be changed. Theoretically, by adding a little negativity, the organizer can participate in match-fixing. Therefore, this unpleasant detail needs to be eliminated somehow. For example, announce it somewhere on the forum in a password-protected room, and after the end of the round, give the password to everyone so that they can check, of course, editing messages in the room should also not be allowed.

And lastly, in order to make a prediction, it is necessary to know what the opponents will be playing on, WoG or SoD. This is the most important point for the predictor tournament. Many players play differently on different versions, and it is incorrect to make a bet without knowing the version of the game.

P.S. Kostyan, could you extend the registration period a little and think through the tournament plan a bit more?

I'm not a gambling person, but I'll play a few rounds – in the 1st game.

with a large number of pairs, it will be impossible to guess them all. Can you re-bid in subsequent rounds?
it is written that you need to choose 3 pairs :)

For example, start with 3, then 2, and in the final rounds, which have no re-brackets, make one prediction, or if we leave the number of predictions up to the players, then at the end of the tournament, if there are several winners, distribute the prize pool not equally among all, but depending on the number of correct predictions.
Since the game uses the Swiss system, the number of matches, as I understand it, will not decrease unless there are a large number of withdrawals from the tournament. But I think it is necessary to make a fixed number of predictions.

Are the template rules for m-200% the same as in the seasonal mode, or are they separate?

I have a suggestion to limit the time for making predictions. For example, 3 rounds before the end of the tournament, so that truly good forecasters enter the ranking, and not those who paid more. In the last 3 rounds, at least, you have to guess correctly.

It is impossible to pay more than 600 rubles, so the argument about who paid more or less is not serious. Besides, please note that we don't have a charity tournament for forecasters, but an improvised bookmaker, albeit primitive and flawed for now - it's just a chance to win without investing a single ruble, even if it's hypothetical...

Second suggestion: if there is no winner in the BOB tournament, let the prize fund be divided either among the top three or half of the fund goes to the winner, and the other half remains with the bookmaker :) or any other way to distribute it.

If there are no winners, the prize fund goes to the next BOB, in full. Depending on the activity and enthusiasm of the participants, there may, of course, be variations.

And can you, for example, always make only one prediction? Or will the number of predictions decrease in accordance with the decrease in the number of player pairs? I suggest making a fixed number of predictions and reducing their number in stages. For example, start with 3, then 2, and in the last rounds, which don't have rematches, make only one, or if you leave the number of predictions up to the user, then at the end of the tournament, if there are several winners, distribute the prize fund not in half among all of them, but depending on the number of correct predictions.

For now, the adequate number of mandatory predictions per round seems to be THREE, and you can choose from several pairs (8-10 approximately) - in my opinion, for what is already an easy BOB, it's too easy to change anything. It wasn't about Kostyan, who is such a philanthropist, simply giving away 100 bucks; if you read the rules carefully, you have to earn them, win them.

"Scandals. Intrigues. Investigations." And, characteristically, the investigation and suspicion occur even before the "crime" is committed:smile04:. If there are reasons not to trust the host, I recommend not signing up. In what bookmaker, I wonder, do they publish the number of people who bet on a particular outcome? The host will be monitored by the saved correspondence in PM - if necessary, it can be easily retrieved and checked.

And finally, to make a prediction, it is necessary to know what the opponents will be playing, WoG or SoD. This is the most important point for the forecasters' tournament. Many players play differently on different versions, and it is incorrect to make a bet without knowing the version of the game.

By default, it's SoD; if both players suddenly want to play WoG, they must notify each other in the thread as soon as possible after the draw (and then let everyone decide for themselves whether to wait or not for such notifications before placing a bet).

They are the same as in the seasonal mode. The time per turn is indicated in the first post.

For now, we don't have as many participants as we'd like. Therefore, I'm considering extending the registration period slightly to reach at least 20-24 players in tournament 1, or at least 16 if that's not possible – it wouldn't be very impressive otherwise:rolleyes: ... Also, due to the overlap between my tournament and the one in Odessa, we could consider a break in the tournament (or very flexible deadlines for the round that falls during the Odessa event – as a one-time exception to the blitz format) to make it convenient for all "Odessa participants" and encourage them to sign up. I'm still thinking about the templates; the information you provided in the thread has been noted.

Message from KostyaN:
There aren't as many people as I'd like yet. Therefore, I have a preliminary intention to slightly extend the registration period to 20-24 players in tournament 1, at least, if not, then at least 16 – it wouldn't be a complete joke...

Well, someone else should sign up so we have 16 people. The date for the draw is in the first post – April 4th, but there’s no activity… Otherwise, the people who have already signed up might withdraw.

I would sign up, but I can’t imagine how to play M-200 according to the seasonal rules.
