[EB] Whats Wrong?

[Kival]

The argument of western factions being crap against steppe is stupid, Kival2 came extremely close and was only stopped by an incredibly stubborn unit of indian Longbows.

I did not see it that way. I think I should review our replay...

I've thought about the following, but haven't asked anybody their thoughts on it. So, consider the following, if you will.

Think about this situation. Unlike how I do tournaments now, imagine I took all the names of people who signed up and created a single or double elimination tournament bracket. By the way, when signing up, not only would you have to state which faction you are playing as, but also whether it is CAC or SAC (if applicable), and you have to stick to it no matter what. Think of it as if you had one single army, and you were its general. I'm not saying you pick the same units, but rather the same faction and AC. Pros of single elim that apply to me is one: that it would end quickly and one loss = you're out. Double elim is good in that 'losers' still get a chance to get back in the game. You have to lose twice to be 'out'. Disadvantage of either? Simple: we have one month to get all of those matches played. That means unless we actually tell people you have the following amount of days to play against your opponent, we're going to have trouble finishing that monthly tourney. And one piece of consolation is that the matchups would be completely random. I assure you.

Anyway, thought I'd spill that finally.
