Hey, I am thinking about starting a possible tournament just for fun. Not official or anything, but if we had at least 8 players we could make it interesting. The basic idea would be:

Everyone who wants to play must have 5 gems. There would be a series of single elimination games on 20x20 to 40x40 size maps. Players would bet their gems in the games, and bet their total winnings all the way up to the final tier. For instance, in round one you must bet your 5 gems. If you win, you must bet all 10 gems in the next game, etc. The winner of the tourney would win the entire jackpot of gems, as well as some recognition.

Sorry if I'm not supposed to direct a tourney, this is "unofficial" Although I have not designed brackets or anything yet, and I don't want to direct some huge official thing with more than 12 players, I think it would be fun to have a small competition with some determined players. The purpose of this topic is simply to see if there are 7 or 11 players interested in doing something like this (8-12 including me ). If there are enough interested people, I will create a topic where the tourney discussion can be held.

So who would be in for something like this?

EDIT: For those who may have been confused about the gem thing, here is what an 8-person tourney would look like in terms of gem winnings.

Awesome, you two are in! The next 5 players to respond will have a certain chance of at least being in an 8 person tourney.

I could come later in the week -

And that is great for you to organize an unofficial tournament. I hope you are able to get people to finish it!

Awesome, you can be in as well!

Sorry Patroid, people signed up very quickly, and I didn't want to get overly ambitious and make a massive tournament
