Players earn points much like they do in the regular HSC seasons (25 pts for 1st, 20 for 2nd, 17 for 3rd etc) per each game and tally up the total points across all games. You could also add a poll to your original post so players can vote on what games should be in the tournament. Figure out how many total games should be played.

I'm all about it, need to grab a copy from Carl of the finished game. I have the old prototype version B&C used to sell on the green PCB but it's time to upgrade i think! Maybe we'll do it near the end so we all have time to get a copy if we haven't already. Was going to wait for Sky Raiders to be released but i really should just grab it sooner rather than later. Oh and Hydra, that game rocks! Edited August 4, 2021 by Rick Dangerous Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't understand where there's confusion. As of right now he has a list of 14 games. You play any or all 14 games over a specified time period and you earn points per game and whoever has the most overall points wins the tournament.

Rick Dangerous Posted August 6, 2021 Author Share Posted August 6, 2021 (edited) I think we are going to stick to one game at a time just to keep it simple. Up to try this at some point but I think it might water things down and actually reduce participation by not giving people a game to focus on...
