The Shadowverse tournament is coming to an end. After the last duel is over, we can summarize the results, but for now, I suggest we start discussing the next event. Before we decide on a game, everyone who wants to participate should suggest one option. I would like to point out that simply mentioning the name in a message is not enough; it is also necessary to indicate the advantages and disadvantages of the game, as well as potential difficulties. For example, for Shadowverse, it could look like this (if I were suggesting this game in this thread): Advantages:
+ The rules and basics of the game are quite easy to understand; it does not require a significant time investment to have a chance not only to participate decently in the tournament but also to win.
+ The Arena mode allows players to play on equal terms, regardless of their gaming experience.
+ Matches are quite short, so you can play a large number of games in a short time.
+ Duels with each other are intriguing and fun.
+ Even after the tournament is over, Shadowverse can keep many people playing it regularly.
+ There are no connection issues.
Disadvantages:
- Requires Steam installation.
- As in any card game, luck plays a role in victories.

~Something like that.

Why is this necessary: if someone just throws out a name but doesn't figure out the details, it may turn out that the game will be chosen for the next tournament, but later it turns out that there will be a lot of problems with it - connection, the need for payment, high requirements, etc.

Also, indicate whether you are going to be an organizer or if you will leave the responsibilities to me.

Well, unfortunately, I don't have much to offer, as a large part of the games I've played recently aren't suitable for a tournament format or for beginners.
And there might be a factor similar to that of Mafia, where too much frequency is also not good, and it's better to have breaks between events? That is, it's fine for me, but perhaps there are people who might find it a bit tiring, and we usually don't have too many participants anyway.

I'll also refrain for now. I have some ideas, but I probably won't be playing anytime soon, nor will I be organizing anything, so what's the point...?

I could suggest a tournament in The Sims, where players build the most beautiful house. But seriously, I'm not interested. I was somehow dragged into Shadowverse, and I'm still in shock. If I agree to anything else, it will be something on the level of Shadowverse.

Okay...

For reference: a week to gather options, a week to choose, and some days to organize – it's already been almost a month of break. I don't think that's "frequent."
Plus, we can consider how many days have passed since the main games were completed.

Well, um... there's another Shadowverse tournament coming up. The Bahamut pack is coming out soon.

Plus, not everyone will participate in tournaments all the time.

This one hasn’t really ended yet.

I agree, I'm hooked too... Although, I doubt people will want to compete in the same tournament again anytime soon.

We can repeat it at the end of January or around that time.

I second Arandor; I was actually thinking of suggesting it again in early February.

Shadowverse for the Shadowverse god, maps to the Throne of Maps.

Either try playing something else (I'm afraid we won't have time to find and play it, as there are no ideas besides the well-known turn-based strategies and simple chess, or other card games on Steam) or repeat Wesnoth.

I had an idea for a tournament in Jedi Academy, with duels between players using lightsabers. But I'm too lazy to check and set everything up.

Is it possible to duel as Luke?

Just a reminder that we can also organize an offline tournament for any game if there's interest – it would be easier that way. In short, I'm open to suggestions for a week. If no one shows enthusiasm, we'll probably postpone it for about a month.

Can we have a duel for Luke?
