The Big Adventure Gamers “VS - There Can Be Only One” Tournament
| Poll: Would you like to have a group stage before direct knock-out duels? Total Votes: 32 |
|
|---|---|
| Group stage before the direct elimination duels | 22  |
| Immediately start with the knock-out rounds (128 - 64 - 32...) | 10 |
Interesting to see that so far all 8 games that were higher ranked in the groups (1st and 2nd place) are winning confidently. Let’s see if that trend continues.
I just thought of something… I think it may be too late to do this though…
It would have been fun for everyone to make bracket predictions on which games would win for each round, up to and including the last round, just like in NCAA brackets, or other similar bracket prediction traditions.
The winner with the predicted bracket that is closest to the actual final bracket could win a prize of cool games that they haven’t played yet!
Great idea!
We could add a name of the sponsor (donor of games) to the tournament name

the problem with that… IMO…. you’d be encouraging people to vote for the game they think is going to win instead of the game they like best 
Even worse, it encourages people to vote on games they havnt played.

Very true! :-(
Yes. Also, all other games will be removed from AdventureGamers and the site will be converted to a tribute shrine for the winning game. No discussion of any game other than the Best Game will be permitted on the forums. Anyone even thinking of discussing another game will be instantly and permanently banned, then hunted down by Timovieman who will make them play Best Game 12 times in a row.
He he - Fine by me… but only for a limited time… right?

Great idea - In fact I will sponsor a copy of The Longest Journey to be drawn between all the predict that The Longest Journey wins - and are right 
You have to play the game, to find out why you are playing the game! - eXistenZ
DoTT vs Broken Age? 
That… that was hard.

Well, if you have secret predictions it’ll at least not influnece anyone else. I dunno, just a thought.

I made my own secret prediction bracket. Let’s see how accurate it is later. It will probably be a lot more accurate than my basketball brackets.
Maybe we could private message our predicted brackets to Bogi or TimovieMan…
I have some extra copies of some games that I could give to the winner.
I know it is maybe a bit too late for this suggestion but wouldn’t it be better if the score of each game in the knockout phase was in spoilers? I like that added bit of suspense of not knowing the scores so that way I can decide on my votes and check them out afterwards.
And I apologize if someone already posted this, don’t have time to go through all the pages

Good suggestion, I agree 
But I’m not sure how to do it because it is in the code part :o

Wow. From the results thus far,
Riven will probably get eliminated by….the Neverhood.
Zork GI seems that will get eliminated by…Primordia.
(Both Neverhood and Primordia are great games, but no way near the Riven or Zork GI level!!)
Seems that the only 1st person games that will move to the next round are from the Tex franchize.
So little love for the 1st person adventures…
It’s depressive….
Add to that The Last Express elimination by Blackwell Epiphany!
And all non-Jane Jensen games from Sierra are going out…
