You know.......when you look at the scores uploaded, you see what kind of game people are playing.....that makes me think that the selection of the games are not that good, for example.... xenophobe is a game forgotten and unplayed (by now) in marp #3.....maybe because it's a boring game....well...the next vote should maybe ....how you say in english ......... if 10 people vote for one game...maybe it's more important than one people (who maybe won't ever play marp#3) you see what I mean ?
well anyway sorry to bother..

games choosen in MARP

Q.T.Quazar
As much as gameboy9 should probably field this one, the tourney being
his baby and all, I did suggest the idea behind the new voting
process. The MARP tournaments are not about how many people like a
game, Olivier, or even how good anyone at MARP is at a certain game.
They're about learning how to play and develop new skills on a wide
variety of games, something that isn't possible in a "classics"
tournament like Deca2000, where everybody has played the "popular"
games before.
<p>
We tried in T2 to allow players to choose their favorite games, and
the results of the voting turned out the same as in this
tournament--the games were very varied and not necessarily the most
popular games; problem was, a certain "character" at MARP was slanting
the vote (said character has since excised himself from MARP)
<p>
Personally, I joined MARP for T1, simply because a game I had never
played before in a real arcade during my life was in it, a game that
I think is incredibly fun and addictive, yet many others dislike very
srongly--Discs of Tron. If it wasn't for the variety offered by the
tournaments at MARP, I, and probably a lot of other players, would
never have come here in the first place.
<p>
Something to think about.
