  1. #1

    Cwf seeding

    Ok enough is enough

    seed this thing starting at ko1. Highest versus lowest. Players that have 400m power should not be making it further then players hwo have 800+m power

    People have asked and asked and asked. Just do it already

    Tynon doesn't care.

    i usually went to round 3-4 until the last 3 CW that where odd for me and it went both ways: 2 CW in a row i had blayd and fleur in round 1 and last CW i had a +200m higher player than myself that i beat and all following players until round 5 where 100-300m lower than myself... so its clearly not working out the way as the devs have planned it. however i was equally matched in round 1 this time as well as in round 2, both players where online and both match ups ended 3-2 and i had a blast and enjoyed it very much.
    for me it worked out nicely, i came as far as i thought i would (and deserved) but i'd be disappointed if i was a player with 2-3x the power and got knocked out early while the rating power itself should have gotten him/her into the finals in some way. recently fleur cried about it, before that ava didnt complain and took it like a trooper just like others have.
    long story short, the idea about having a controlled KO-tournament part is not as bad and complicated as it sounds. i think to remember that some players had their doubts and known cheaters would lower their power to get easy matchups, but if you strictly match up high vs low then it would be in everyones interest to show up with the most power you can to bring it "home" or at least get as far as you can.
    that being said, i still believe that the rewards should be based on matches won and tickets should be extra. meaning the real rewards and goodies should go to the player who won the most battles and not the one who gambled the most tickets.

    i do agree with matt. I have more unlucky draws than lucky with having people 200m+ against me in the 1st round, then they go on to have a 300m player in knockout 5? how is that right? if cwf is suppose to be good to the strongest players, the strongest players should be in the later rounds, not the small guys. they really need a better system to compare players that the right powers moves on.

    This is the first, and probably only time I'll defend the biggest losers...
    If and only if the devs have taken into consideration previous achievement, you will get seeded accordingly. If you have a crown, or 2, or 3...well, you are a power player and should be seeded opposite the other crowns. If you have been knocked out in the knockout rounds previously, you are a rando, and power don't mean a thing. There is a lot of peeps that make ti to the knockouts. That's the clearing house. Why do you get a 300mil player in round 4? Because your job is to eliminate him. Duh! Somebody has to fight the big guys...it might be your turn, it might not.

    That being said...I had mattp in knockouts, and dang if I didn't lose a couple rounds. Nice work. (I was betting, not fighting...I lost early)

    I think the seeding is fine as it is. It means I actually get to final 8 every now and again even though I'm probably not in top 16. But, mostly I go out in last 32.
    ZZZZZZZzzzzzzz. Wake me up again when they add new content.

    If this was a tiered tournament this makes sense. Since it is not tiered tournament and everyone is batched in, it makes little sense what Mattp is proposing.

    Lowest powers should be eliminated first. Otherwise, you get someone with 400 mil power in the semi's when a 800mil power gets knocked out by someone higher.

    Thats my point

    If the highest powerered player fights the lowest powered player in KO 1. ANd then second highest fights second lowest in KO1 etc etc etc. You know like NFL playoffs.

    Why is anyone worried about seeding when the top players nerf to one or two toons. Kinda defeats the purpose of eliminating all the smaller players to have the high powers left
