Going back to tiered events, you can see here start.gg's front page showing "Featured Events" which are obviously majors and whatnot. This is what I personally would like to see instead of just closing the platform off entirely.

If "filler" tournaments are taking attention from other events, it's because they're offering something that others don't. Orgs and events don't deserve their position because they are long-standing. They become long-standing *because* they deserve it. And they have to work to stay that way.

Also, yet another financial barrier to entry. I can't afford stuff like art prizes, cash prizes. Can't afford to get art assets made for promotion or streaming. I could only afford this by canceling my (already few) other Patreon subscriptions. very fun

I would have preferred to have seen tournaments separated by some measure, like "promoted" vs. "non-promoted" events so the former had more visibility, but this is too far. Having the site be a closed platform doesn't really help anyone.

not sure giving away red and blue jackets against the Twins was the right call but 🤷🏽

I've said this a million times but none of these tell me whether its Bo3/Bo5/other. All it takes is three characters.
Don't think the scorebug needs to include tournament name. Being in the stream title is enough imo but if you have to put it at the bottom or smth

also I assume the layout was provided by the organizers and so cannot be modified but this is def not the best layout for a Splatoon stream

can't speak for other local TOs but if I decided not to have a community prize pool for an event, I just... wouldn't charge the money in the first place
as for the why, I just assume it's because that's how other (esp. Smash) offline events functioned

and if you think is ridiculous, this is but a small fraction of my autism

I've held these thoughts to myself for a long time because of anxiety and hoping that I would one day have the power (or money) to do them myself.
But with all the talk recently, I realize I'd rather see these ideas implemented than have to be the one to implement them. Also I'm impatient

like formats I've been toying w/:
Bo3/Pa3: SZ, then TZ/RM and CB in either order
Bo5: SZ, TZ/RM, CB, SZ, CB*
Bo7: SZ, TZ, CB, SZ, RM, SZ, CB
* last two could mix TZ/RM in to prevent staleness but it depends obv

beating Triumvirate at HLM took a while. had a lot of close ones before finally breaking through.

getting 9s on a single map seemed like an impossible task. getting 9s on all maps wasn't even a thought in mind. let alone doing it all in freelance

when I got Splatoon 3 I got it for the PvP. I didn't know anything abt Salmon Run and had no idea the effect this mode would have on me.

Wrote some questions on the RFC but I also wanted to add some personal thoughts:
* think it'd be cute to use something like X-tier, S-tier, A-tier, etc. instead of Tier 1, Tier 2
* along those same lines, could then have more granulated tiers like A+, A-. not 100% sure how those would be delineated
