Would the community enjoy more tournaments?

It has been way too long without one of these. So, without further ado: What kind of tournament would you like it to be?

If two of the six polls are very close to eachother; I shall make a second poll with just those two with one vote only.

I'll lock this on, Wednesday, October 14th.

I feel like a 3 vs 3 would be fun. Not too many nor too few either. Plus it'd make some of the Ghey boi teams (that try to stack but still lose) Split up a bit more for more balance all around.

The Free for all shouldn't be the tourney alone. That should be a pre or post tourney around the main event. (a free for all would just be that one game and too much bro code on a FFA)

Also should be some cooldown rule where we can't have a 5v5 or 1v1 since they were the last two tournaments. (So We can't repeat the last 2 tournaments we had just to keep things interesting)

Last two were 5v5 and 2v2, not 1v1. Would like free for all but in small groups. Like a group of 5 players fight, there are many groups, 1 survivor from each group joins next round and so on.

Pretty sure it was the 2v2 then 1v1 then 5v5.

As long as its not another duel Tourney I'm in(Probably would still enter in a duel tourney but not as fun as team ones). I'm with Lumetta, 3v3 or 2v2 would be the most fun IMO. 4v4 would be okay but something just seems wrong with a 4v4

I'd say duel tourney, they usually get the best turnouts. Also, getting a group is hard for people with no friends

Just easier to manage too. Don't have to rely on team mates actually showing up. 1v1 best tournament option for a dying community.

The issue with a 1 v 1 tourney is that the last one took 3-4 hours each day for 3 days. Considering Summer is over, people just don't have that much time on their hands like they did before. (Might need to do a single elimination for that.)
I'd personally like to give a 3 v 3 a try seeing as it's the only one we have yet to do so far. Whichever option gets the highest amount of votes, I will try my best to make it happen.
Spread the word a bit so I can get an accurate amount of voters please.

I like 1v1 or 3v3.

I've always wanted to host a tournament called Gmnotutoo's Superior Japanese Tournament and force all participants to use my loadout: Rus Cav Boots, Black Lamellar Vest, Light Strange Gloves and Katana. (no head armor)

I'm currently saving up enough gold to get to a million to hand out as prize monies.

I'd like a proper free for all with 'heats' of a few players each advancing along a bracket, rather than just everyone fighting at the same time. Or, if everyone's fighting at once make it something fun like hide and seek or a maze map or something instead of arena. Cavalry tournaments would also be really fun, or counterstrike ranged tournaments. Just events in general, straight up tournaments are nice but they're a little dry. Organize a fight club boxing event, cRPG's top weaboo tourny, anything.

Another option could be have it based off of "points". In the FFA when you get a kill, you get one point. End of the first round everyone with less than X points is eliminated while the rest move on to the next round. Final round is when there is only 5 people left and winner of that wins overall(last man standing).

Or just have like 5 rounds and whoever gets the most points in those five rounds wins overall.

I.E. Player A gets 3 points the first round, 0 points the 2nd, 5 points the 3rd, 1 point the 4th, and 2 points the 5th for a total of 11 points.
Player B gets 1 point the first, 8 points the 2nd, 0 the 3rd, 0 the 4th, and then 3 the 5th for a total of 12 points.
Player B would win the tourney in this scenario

It would still just devolve into friend group A vs group B, C, D, etc... For example in one of Ostulor's FFAs I was the last man standing, AND I had the most kills/points, because I was sticking with my friends the whole time. No lonewolf would be able to compete simply because it's based off points as opposed to the winner strictly being the last man alive. The best way to do it would be the "pools" method where everyone is randomly (or maybe not randomly) split up into smaller groups to minimize their interaction with friends/clanmates.
