My take on Exit's Micro Challenge...

[Jurollo]

I was thinking of other sidebets we could make like Exit's micro challenge and I thought of a way that we could structure another event similar to it. Here is what I came up with....

It is essentially one huge last longer over multiple events in a single night. I am using an example with 20 players it would go like this...

For each event 1 point is awarded for every player you outlast that is in the pool. So if you are first out you get the point for entering, 2nd out gets 2 points, 5th out gets 5, and last player out gets 20 points. In addition to these points you get 1 extra point for placing in the money and an extra point for each bracket in pay you move up, including an extra point for every spot moved up at the final table! So here is an example... 4 tournaments for a player...

He finishes 15th or 20
11th of 20
6th of 20 and goes out in the 1st money bracket (+1)
and 1st of 20 and wins the tournament, goes through 5 brackets and 9 spots at the final table (+14)

total: 5 + 10 + 16 + 34 = 65 points

Anyone think this sounds fun? Early in the tourney you are looking to beat the other 2p2'ers and after that you are looking to get deep.

Good idea MR. Jurollo. I would be down fo shizzle
This would include bigger events such as the 11+r right?

[Jurollo]

Yea, the bigger the fields, the bigger the points would be due to more pay levels. I would be willing to include any events that people were whole heartedly interested in.

Any comments or questions or ideas on this format?

i'd be interested, and the scoring system sounds fair, might be hard to gather the results thouugh.

any day during the weekened should be good.

[Jurollo]

Well all it would take would be to have everyone's screennames and try to update as best as possible throughout the night, still time consuming, but you be fun.

It sounds awesome. I'd love to do it, but I'd never have time. [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

I dont know how private tournaments work, but could we do this with them?

We get 30 people, and have say 7 or so 30 man tournaments in a night, that way we could have a wider variety of games rather than all NL HE.

[Exitonly]

Oooh, a KOTZ type thing, all in one night could be fun.

The private tourney thing sounds like fun. If I can get a few days notice I may even be able to do it. Maybe start a new tourney every 20 mins or so from 9:30 EST to 11:30 EST. have 2 NL, 1 Limit Holdem, 1 limit Omaha, 1 PLO8, 1 stud and 1 stud H/L.
