I read you entire post before and I understand how you want to make knockout phase better and give it its own quality, but I didn’t relise that capping the player at 100 point would result in a situation like that.
Yes, but at least with top-8 you got no excuses. Whoever is in 7th or 8th place(or lower) must be either not active or have weak skills. So it won’t really matter much for them imo.
I know that unfairness can still occur, I’m just decreasing the chances of it. It won’t be that much of a problem with 8 players than it would be with 4 players. At least when some problems happen and you’re inactive for a few days, you can still get back up if you’re good enough(which gives more chances with 8 players).
And what made me do that is because of how the most points player can get now is 100, this made it more worse to those who even didn’t play for only 2 or 3 days of group phase.
About your idea:
-
It wouldn’t be fair to all other players and other groups to wait one more day because some unfairness happened to just 4 or 6 players. Other players will complain.
-
I suggested before that each knockout round last for 2 days instead of 1 but it didn’t get accepted, so I think this one will most likely not be accepted too.
-
What if the unfairness happened to 4 or 6 players I the same group? That will result to more Extra Phases which will make other players more mad.
Also there is no point of that discussion anymore since GuestUniverse made a poll at EA topic.
