Fall Activities
Ok, I read Splexx's ToH Sucks thread and it once again occured to me that he makes some good points. I believe I have admitted this previously, but I have not been around the way I should be. I DO do a lot of tournament work, but it's in the background and mostly consists of activating players and tracking down faker rings. You'd be amazed how much time just that takes. But I think I've only been in the zone twice since May. I won't offer a bunch of excuses because well no one really cares, lol, suffice it to say summer is really busy for me (kids really SHOULD go to school year around). However, it's fall now and things are slightly less busy, my youngest has started school and goes 2-3 days a week all day, which would give me enough time to do a sub tourney. But I really have no idea what to run, but here are my thoughts.
Clans: Doubtful
1) No one liked the setup we had
2) It took forever to get that one, would take longer to get a new one
3) Was very inactive
4) Last time I was told not to make it plain and boring, but anything that made it not plain and boring no one used so if, and I mean a weak if, I decided to do a team based tourney, it would be very simple and without much for options.
Native Tourney: If you remember splexx, you and I worked something out on this one, but I see that since then it is over at WW. Not quite the same, but similar, so my question is, is it worth running for ToH if WW is running it, will you play?
MapMasters: Could theoretically be ran for both H3 and H4, keep in mind it is deadline based and if ran I WILL adhere to the deadlines set.
Any other suggestions? Please make them constructive, I am very well aware of my deficiencies and don't need them pointed out, but if it makes you feel better, go ahead, just don't be surprised if I consider them off topic and delete them. The point of this thread is to give ideas / suggestions, not lament on my slacker level.

I would like any BRACKETED style tourny! Heroes 4
Altho dont think a map masters tourny would be needed cause well that is how the regular Free for all games are run. TOH every day is like a giant map master tourny. So any bracketed tourny would be kewl.
I would even volunteer to run and update the Heroes 4 Bracketed subtourny, if some ideas were presented.
Good post Raven.

Hero is a good tournament. It's a pity that it is closed.
May be new tournament "Tactical Combat"?! But map must be corrected to good balance. New fixes will be soon...

I didnt played that time when hero tourney was going at ToH , but i watched few games my friend Wanderrer played, but as i remember, players werent forced to use the hero they picked and mostly they didnt , cause heroes were edited from beggining and not get exp from a Pandora, which mostly lead to heroes like Sorsha or other castle heroes for example to pick by themselves skills like balistics or first aid and make themselves really unusable....if it is to be a hero tourney, i`d like one in witch everybody to use only the hero they choose...and btw , in the tourney that was ran at WW, heroes were not equal from the start...for example Halon would need quite advantage in the first games at least against Ivor...say it creatures, resources and artifact...someone have to think about some system to balance chances a little....maybe give a chance to necro heroes to be picked too...

Map Masters not equal to Hero, even if you can't read, it's a different number of characters

I notice that pretty much everyone posting here is a Heroes 4 player, sigh, but that's ok too. I will talk to Vesuvius about the whole Hero thing. I know next to nothing about "The Hero" as it has not been run since I have been part of the ToH Staff. Before I can start the MapMasters thing, I'm thinking the two maps listed by Jinxer are probably fine, they seem pretty popular, but I need specific game settings for each. Now, for clarity, if a specific bracket on a specific map has a specific group of settings, it's a guideline, not the law. If the two of you as players agree on different settings, that is fine, the guideline is more for if you cannot agree. Then you will be required to play by the preset guidelines. Of course the ideal way to set said guidelines, is to make them the way most play the map anyway, or the way that the map is most fair. If you guys would either email or post some map settings, I can get the page set and get it started for registration.

Why not Circle of Life for map masters. Lets give some credit for teacher. He has done hard work to revive it.
I'd say maps for map masters:
Powerspot Insides
Circle Of Life
If put 2.
