shakes1066 Posted October 11, 2013 Report Share Posted October 11, 2013 You should get an email with the tickets for each event attached as a PDF. Should I? I signed up to two events but have not seen any email yet. Should I be worried by this? Luke Cocksedge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OldManMyke Posted October 12, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 12, 2013 Thanks very much for all the folks who have signed up for this, especially for the singles event, very gratifying as I know its a fair chunk of cash to fork out. We will do our very best to make it a unique set of events though. To that end I have been pondering the format for the singles event and have jotted down some thoughts in, of all things a blog post. http://oldmanmyke.blogspot.co.uk/2013/10/malifaux-tournament-musings.html I'd be interested in any feedback on the idea Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mythicFOX Posted October 12, 2013 Report Share Posted October 12, 2013 Good article Mike. Masters was three fixed lists, with each list being used once. With the faction specific schemes in 1.5 it meant there was a significant advantage to being able to switch between factions so you could expand on your schemes, having access to kidnap and sabotage was fairly powerful. *grin* None of that really matters now though. I'm not against the three master idea necessarily, but I'll play devil's advocate. I suppose the counter arguments would be; It's bad for newer players as they're less likely to be able to use multiple factions to their advantage. It could lead to players cherry picking the 'best' masters in the game to form a super-group, which can lead to a more competitive environment with no requirement to compromise anywhere. People have also already signed up to the singles event on the basis of it being fixed faction and may not be happy to have the format changed on them now. That said I think it's an interesting idea.

Thingster Posted October 12, 2013 Report Share Posted October 12, 2013 As an idea I think it could be fun and a very interesting way of playing a tournament. However as mythicFox says it seems to lend itself more to a super competitve type event. Overall I'm a fan if the idea, but it could do with some testing before going out at a major event.

JazzNazz Posted October 16, 2013 Report Share Posted October 16, 2013 Hi Mike and Mr Conrad I understand the event is a Loooong way off but will there be any restrictions on on proxies? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wake of Godzilla Posted October 17, 2013 Report Share Posted October 17, 2013 Booked in for Story and 1 player torni – what is the format of the hard-core likely to be? As for formats for games I would not be in favour of 3 masters from any faction – as Mythic Fox says I think it would lead to a “dream team” and potentially see a lot of spam lists being taken. Like at the end of 1.5 where you wouldn’t see a game without VS or Collodi. However here to offer some suggestions – what about 3 masters that have to be in faction or what about a highlander torni – may only use one master once during a torni. Again not necessarily newbie friendly. I’m still a fan of fixed masters and fixed pool especially as a way of attracting new players in to attending tournaments (all these new players must be come to meet the tournament scene right?)

Dumb Luck Posted October 17, 2013 Report Share Posted October 17, 2013 I like the three master idea. All of mine would be Gremlin. Naturally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldManMyke Posted October 22, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 22, 2013 As of this morning there are only 4 spots left in the main singles event so thanks to everyone for the support. I will be working on the rules pack next week and whilst it won't be radically different from anything that has been used so far it will have the odd twist in it Thanks again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OTP Posted November 19, 2013 Report Share Posted November 19, 2013 are we still restricted to two events at the this point Conrad? I didn't see that restriction lifted as yet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldManMyke Posted November 20, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 20, 2013 At the moment yes, hopefully you will be able to sign up for more soon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ukrocky Posted January 4, 2014 Report Share Posted January 4, 2014 Apparently you can now register for more than 2 events. I also got in touch with the Smogcon guys as I doubt I can make this anymore but apparently it's past the deadline for a refund, over 6 weeks in advance, which is ridiculous Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grez90 Posted January 4, 2014 Report Share Posted January 4, 2014 I'm going to be taking Craigs place at this, and just wondered if anyone knew who I need to get in touch with regarding name changes and further registration etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shakes1066 Posted January 6, 2014 Report Share Posted January 6, 2014 I'm going to be taking Craigs place at this, and just wondered if anyone knew who I need to get in touch with regarding name changes and further registration etc. I would try Oldmanmyke on twitter or Nepalese Ninja as they are running the Malifaux, they will at least be able to point you in the right direction.

OldManMyke Posted January 6, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 6, 2014 You need to speak to the Smogcon Organisers (post on the Smogcon boards is probably a good start) I'm afraid, though from the Malifaux POV now I know I'll just mentally substitute you for Craig Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clousseau Posted January 6, 2014 Report Share Posted January 6, 2014 I've managed to get a ticket for a third event - so now I'm attending the Friday story encounter (and not just to bring along some scenery) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
