Title: Tournament Draw Fixing
Post by: Lorgan on October 08, 2013, 04:54:40 PM
Title: Tournament Draw Fixing

Summary: Allow participants to bribe the tournament officials into fixing the tournament draw so that they can fight another participant of their choice.

Details: Less randomness, more rivalry, more active and immersive tournament experience.

Benefits: See above.

Possible Exploits: picking weak targets to advance yourself. Negligible as long as the bribe is high enough, in my opinion.

Nope.
What about the tournament holder being able to do something along those lines?

No.

No one gets to fix tournament results. Tournaments are an Inalienable Right and a place where everyone can get together to see, in a wholly unbiased manner, who is the best swordsman and jouster on the continent.

Furthermore, any form of fixing would be so deeply exploitable we'd basically have to remove it after the first time it was used.

Not fixing the touranment but the draw of who fights who. If the best swordsman is actually the winner in tournaments then it should have 0 effect on the tournament, it simply makes sure you get to see who is better between two people instead of hoping.
