HXSS (team problem)

[FlyingJesus]

HXSS is fab and I'm sure it's gonna be as wonderful as it usually is, but the idea of bringing teams into it at a later stage when people have already racked up points for themselves doesn't seem like a plan that'll work. People will be able to see (or work out if it's not published) the leaderboard and join up together with those who are in the lead, which will essentially bring it down to a one-horse race.

I agree with teams being a great part of HXSS but if they aren't implemented from the start I can't see a fair ending. Maybe have the first week individual and the second as teams? Even then I'm guessing everyone would want to join up with whoever got the best individual scores.

Any views and ideas of course welcome from other members too

But in each team there are winners

And i dont see how it wont work out, your playing to win individually and for ur team :S

[FlyingJesus]

If you can't see a problem with all of the top contenders being in one team and then everyone else also joining that team because they're destined to win then there really is something wrong

[dogboy123]

If the top contenders go in one group then thats silly, if you think about what the prizes are for people in the runners up groups.

They're the ones that'll be missing out

It was only yesterday that was individual. Now it's in teams we have gone around trying to get the teams from the winners of yesterdays events before posting the points up though.

Or do you mean joining a team before the whole thing starts?

According to Jack the "don't roll a 6" just now was comprised of entirely black team members. Most people aren't too interested in being the overall individual winner and just want to be on the winning side, as proved by how many are in one team compared to membership of others

If they all join one team, only three people will win the top prizes so I think if they had some sense they wouldnt join the same team anyway if they really wanted to win so bad.

Are the majority in Blue seeing as nvrspk has won the first two years?
+ I think there should be a cap to each team or something OR it doesnt increase untill there is like atleast 75 people in each team.
