Match Lengths

[dorbel]

I think that I have mentioned to Tomawaky before, that I would prefer longer matches in the league. 9? 11? Anybody got any ideas on that?
Also, would any fibsters be interested in a Fibs Super Jackpot, with an entry fee of $100 and 17 point matches. 16 players, winner take all, no registration and stakes to be held by a trustworthy neutral? If you want to enter money tournaments on pay sites, they rake 10% for the privilege of running it. Let's kiss off the sharks and do it ourselves. I am happy to host or indeed, pass the idea on for anybody else who likes to do it. Could be a lot of fun, could be a regular event.

Here some kind of poll that could help.

If you want complete it dorbel, contact me.

I'd love to play in your money tourney dorbel.
My brother and cousin would too, and perhaps a few other family members.

We can be sure that burper would indeed like to do his best to disrupt such a tournament with multiple entries. Sadly such an attempt would be disrupted by (a) the necessity of paying entry fees before the event and ( the availability of internet access at the secure hospital in which he resides.

personally i like the 7 point match length.  however im open to change. so where do we go from here?  do we change the match lengths for all divisions?  or only the master division?  another league i used to play in had a progressive format, that is div 4 (the lowest) started at 5 points and as u moved up, so did the match lengths so eventually the div 1 players were playing 11 point matches.  would fibsters go for this format?  there is something to be said for that.  as one moves up and the competition gets stronger it makes sense to increase the lengths so eliminate some of the luck factor.  im curious as to what others think.   i definately think some sort of poll is called for.

I would not like to see lengthier matches in the league.  7 points takes quite long enough to play imho.  Playoffs are fine for longer matches, I suppose, but I just don't like being tied up for a long time.

Longer matches would serve to make the league matches more "serious" and less social.  The primary benefit would be the reduced opportunity dorbel would have to kick my ass as he did last time around, cad.
