Hi All,
Some departments have this stuff down better than others, but there is usually room for improvement.
Only 101s, Demos, and Playtests do not require winners info.
Tournaments must have winners (or DNR).
All other gaming events are supposed to have winners or a damn good excuse. In most cases, “Out of time” or “Players didn’t want a second round” are not acceptable. The GM should *try* to put together a fair way to generate winners from partial results, particularly for long games.
Sponsored Events - Please remind the people running these events that just because they provide the prizes does not mean we don’t need the winners info. If they are running it as a Demo, it needs to be listed in the Title, as least for this con, as I’m not clairvoyant.
Co-ops should list whether the players or the game won. It’s also important that we know who played, so make sure the sign-up sheet is filled out properly for attendance.
Team games should list the winning team name. We would also like to know on something like the sign-up sheet, who is on each team. Please make it obvious, we can’t assume.
One reason we are pushing for co-op and team info is to offer a Co-op/Team Annual Award. Think about it, if a player is mostly in these kind of events and keeps winning, it would be nice to recognize them. But, we have to have enough events with the necessary data to do this. We are not going to award this to a team, only individuals.
