Well I haven't played minicom, but I do have concerns about the ability of subs to nuke anywhere. It's not so much the seanuking thing, though that is a concern, it's more their being used for blind nuking silos. In some setups, like EU-Russia, that could be extremely devastating for one side. I think minicom would need broader adoption and some time for players to work out the balance issues before there's a tourney.

Just my $0.02. Anyway, we still have R3D's tourney to do. It would be nice if people hurried up with that; I'm looking forward to the next round!

I would accept R3D games (they are 1v1 only) as well. :P

actually, having thought of it, i think we should take a break from tourney right now...

look, turgon's tourney was a flop and r3d 1v1 tourney is dying too. maybe we should just take a few months off of tourney to create excitement for the next one?

Difference is, this is Ace hosting. Someone that's hosted many successful tournaments in the past. If it flops, oh well. At least we got some competitive matches in.

Also, having more than one tournament won't hurt either tournament. But it will help bring more players to public chat to setup these matches.

Additional, both R3D's and Turgon's were structured or bracketed tourneys, mine never are because I learned a long time ago those usually flop. :P

(they're 'Pub' games with meaning)
