1v1 tournament for the elite
Hello my fellow curvers,
I missed the 1v1 speed tournament SO,
I decided to create an unofficial 1v1 tournament for the best players this game has to offer! I will invite 16 players to participate in this tournament. These players will be chosen by mine and oldghz's judgement based on their speed skills.Why oldghz you might ask? He decided to double the prize money cause he liked my idea of this tournament. A big shout out to him for supporting me on this one! The best player will go home with 40 euro prize money! But we didn't forget about the others who tried their best! The runner up in the final will take 20 euro, so you better make sure you reach the finals! If you dont make it to the finals, numbers 3 and 4 will battle for 10 euro and the honour of 3rd place in this elite tournament.
We wil start with 4 poules of 4 players each. Number 1 and 2 will go through. All the players within their own poule will battle against each other, number 1 and 2 will go through based on the NUMBER of rounds they have won! That means every round matters!
We will work out the exact details later on, im just posting this to let people know and maybe get some hype going! We will invite the players soon,
Kind regards,
Jimmy
I AM HAPPY TO INFORM YOU GUYS,
I have gotten a lot of positive feedback from you guys! I really appreciate that guys thanks!
Now let me share the good news,
Tell why me decided to nearly double the prize money!! The stakes are really getting high right now! The current prizes are 75 euro for the number 1, 50 for the runner-up and 25 for 3rd place. I cant thank Tell why me enough for making this happen! I'ts such a generous feat so lets make sure to give the guy some love!
Future updates will be coming soon.
great idea bro and indeed i double it
btw if you want to participate contact me ingame
The idea of the century, let's dance
Take Your Sweet Time
u mean ur friends.
" number 1 and 2 will go through based on the NUMBER of rounds they have won! That means every round matters! "
Nice idea to keep it interesting, but easy to manipulate. Best player in each group can just beat their friend 10-8 and beat others as much as possible.
I like this idea. 40€, you can almost buy two regular champion titles with this.
And no 2nd accounts very nice.
Cool idea as long you meant "point difference" and not just "number of won rounds" (11-9 ≤ 10-8). Official tournaments could learn something.
Let me know if I can help, schedule recording or whatever.

RACKS ON RACKS
Omg this almost feels like kickstarter.
150€ for a 1v1 within hours, maybe we should crowdfund cf 2 remastered too.

Great idea bro! and thanks to the donors.
However I agree with pancake, seems ez to cheat/make profit with friends or whatever.. I don't know.
Wolf
well lets see who he consider as best players xD
What a generous prize! I really appreciate the kind gesture that jimmydb, oldghz and Tell why me have put into this. Best of luck to the 16 accepted players!
high tech low life
Am I the only one, who don't like this idea? Probably, but let's talk about why I don't like it.
First, you will invite 16 players. You want only good players, I got that, but there are players, out there who are good, but you didn't see them playing, what about them? I mean, have you ever seen me playing? I'm actually gs noob, but there are gs pros, which you don't know. To the last official 1v1 gs tournament, signed 32 players, and it was premium only.
Second, "number 1 and 2 will go through based on the NUMBER of rounds they have won! That means every round matters! " Just like Pancake said, it's really easy to manipulate. Imagine this situation, there are 4 players A,B,C and D. And the results are
A-B 10-8
A-C 10-0
A-D 0-10
B-C 8-10
B-D 8-10
C-D 0-10
D was clearly the best one, who won all, but he was a friend with B, who was the worst one lost all, so he let him win 8 rounds, and now B, the worst one is second, that's ridiculous.
Third, the prize. Well, if I won, which I won't because I won't participate, I just couldn't accept this prize.
First of all thanks for sharing your thoughts with us. Im reacting on the spot so correct me if I'm wrong but, most of the matches in the poule phase will be played at the same time. Which leaves less posibility to sabotage the tournament like that. I also strongly believe these players wouldnt even think of throwing away their own chances at such prizes just to help another player. Besides that, we will check on the matches that are being played by means i wont state here. If we will find out it does happen any player will be disqualified without any mercy.

Nice initiative, looking forward to see how this plays out
This is a list of players id like to invite to this 1v1 speed tour
This list is based on my opinion + the opinions from the players ingame.
Let me know if i have forgotten someone, if you think you deserve a spot here you will have to fight for it by playing three 1v1 games vs one of the players below. If we can see that you can bring competition to them or maybe even win from all of them we will let you join.
arrow
carnagefx
bloodred
wolf
baxuid
brutalzsymon
Shikon (he makes the schedule)
Ninaballerina
Mrpiter
TherealObey

Superboy
Hazel
Heartache/Human Bomb
Armani Banani
Superman
Monster.
Franswag
Ivy Cel
Pancake
Pleiades
Darken
Degolas
Zaw
Pug/Heraklet
After we've selected the players we will have to figure out what date is the best for all to play on.
May the best win.
(ps, this is not the definitive list).
Sam should get a spot here too because he is great tactically
tbh i think i deserve a place here
Barney Stinson/ Quentin Tarantino.
Luckyralf
(names i forgot)
Sam Pum too , also forgot. ty
also think i'd deserve a spot in that list
Barney/Quentin Tarantino and Crowly will have to fight for a spot to join.
Run is in too
Here : http://forum.curvefever.com/achtung/match/40704156
the rule is three 1v1 games vs players from in the list, me or superman will have to spectate it.
also Freakout, how could i forget. sry
The tournament Will consist of more than 16 players. Future updates Will be posted soon.

I admire the time and effort put into this, but don't we all know who will most likely win...
Here's a fun little side idea: Publish the official list of players and have people comment with an arranged list of the (x) number of players in the tournament, in order of who they think has the best/highest chance of winning to who has the least chance of winning.
Maybe 10 euro for anyone with a perfect list?
This idea sounds a bit naive, but I got the idea from the NBA playoffs bracket challenge. (My apologies to those not familiar with the NBA(National Basketball Association)) Basically, before the season playoffs begin, people have an oppurtunity to create a bracket for the 16 teams that made the playoffs that season and the winner (person with perfect bracket), gets awarded with $1 million. Search it up, I'm not joking.
Just an idea btw
Great way to involve those not involved
I forgot TheRealIngeMadridcf too
I will not be competing. Please give my spot to crowly if you haven't made his spot official already. He's beaten me a number of times before and is definitely capable of beating many others on this list as well.
I'd be interested. What date is it on?
Do you not like the idea, or just certain parts of how it is setup?
I agree that the rounds can and probably will be manipulated, even if Jimmy doesn't think so and rounds certainly shouldn't be the main decider.
Don't agree with your other 2 points though. Why should you not being able to accept a prize make this tournament a bad idea? If anything it adds an incentive for players to play that wouldn't have bothered
And this is a small game with a small number of good players, it's not like there are players who could be the best speeder in the game and nobody knows them, I'm sure 16/32 players will cover everyone who has a chance of coming in the top 3.
For a game like cf, I don't see how this event can be a bad idea.
This was a reply to Kwap, it's not made very clear. Guess the reply button doesn't reply to one post.
CAN I ALSO PLAY
MEOW
I think sarah2005meow should participate, she did beat me in 1v1 ;o
You forgot me as Boss member, am i not a great old good speed player? grrr ;*
hello,
I guess the tourney has been abandoned?
Wolf
I've changed my mind. Really wish you don't abandon this.
Really don't care about the money. But let's say that winner gets 'Best 1v1 speeder in the game'. If we can't get an official title, we can agree to give the winner the glory they deserve.
