Return of the Tournament Coordinator

[RedDevil]

It is rather difficult to approve things post-tournament as well, when they should have been done before hand.

Just curious, is this a new policy? Because IIRC there were a spate of tournaments recently that had points and badges handed out long after they wrapped up.

Also, the club rules regarding tournaments that you quoted are a little vague on the subject under discussion, actually. It might be clearer to amend them to say something along the lines of "The Tourney Master is responsible to coordinate with the Ladder Commander to approve any specific parameters not contained in the established club rules, including prizes, bonus points, and any specific tourney badges..." That might help remove some confusion regarding a procedure not actually mentioned in the rule noted above.

Anyway, just a few thoughts - no worries either way. Points and badges and stuff don't do much for me. Personally, I'd find it a bit sad if anyone just played in our Sith tournament for the sake of some bonus points and a pretend badge to flash around - the Sith, we play for fun (and ELO), not points... ;)

I never said it was impossible, just difficult. The advantage of my being CM commander AND 3rd in command here at the club meant it was simply easier for me to do things without needing to go up thru the CoC and get things uploaded, as well as rewarded. Now it needs to pass thru a few hands to get it done.

We prefer vague as the ladder commander has to have leeway in how he wants to run his ladder and without restricting his limits, we offer that ability.

I find your comment about "flashing" a false badge rather undermining of the system we have here to reward people for their efforts with a visual item, in addition to points, and quite frankly it reeks of a personal issue you seem to have with those who have them and flash them.
