Registration Closed, but You Can Still Join The Discord

Hello people,

I am [ Yui ]/dudemonkey61 and I would like to present to you my first of hopefully multiple “Adopt a” tournaments. What is an “Adopt a” tournament you ask, well let me explain it to you. There is a lot to this, but please read it as I will not answer questions that are directly stated below. I will also be taking in feedback on how to improve this, so if you have an idea bring it up I am all ears as long as it is constructive. This tournament won't be going on for a while most likely, but please sign up anyways because the more interest means the better the chance of it happening.

This will all be streamed at: https://www.twitch.tv/yuiosutourneys


MINI UPDATE


The staff is finalized, but we can always use more, so please feel free to sign up for a position if you want to.

UPDATE PART 2:

Join this and read the #welcome please. Like seriously DO IT.

BIG SUPER IMPORTANT UPDATE:


This is about the amount of players in the tournament. I am stupid from not saying this in the beginning of me posting the tournament, but better late than never. THE TOURNAMENT FILLS TO THE LOWEST POWER OF 2 OF A RANK RANGE. This means that if there are 17 1-1k players and 72 in a range the total teams will be 16 and 16 only.

THIS NEXT PART IS SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND TOTALLY DEBATABLE DO NOT TAKE THIS AS THE FINAL DECISION PLEASE: I will be randomly placing each player that has signed up into a team up to the team cap meaning that if we only get 16 players in total the other players that did not make it will be put on a waiting list and will be contacted when needed if a player leaves the tournament, their rank range, or does not communicate. (Their is probably more, but you get it) SO DO NOT BREAK CONTACT IF YOU ARE NOT CHOSEN. There will most likely be ample opportunity for those who don't make it to actually be in the tournament IF THEY COMMUNICATE. (Sorry about caps, but this stuff is super important)

I will now show the total ranks that have signed up on the discord, so far meaning they are actually fully registered and waiting for the tournament. This will be updated once a day as people sign up.

Rank Sign-Ups:
1-1k: 17

1k-5k: 24

5k-10k: 22

10k-20k: 44

20k-40k: 49

40k-70k: 33

70k+: 25

TOTAL TEAMS IN THE TOURNAMENT: 16

I want this to change, so we can have a lot of teams in the tournament please sign up so we don't disappoint the masses.

About The Tournament
The “Adopt a” tournament is a tournament designed around brining more rank ranges together to get more interaction between different areas in the Osu! rank range. I came up with this idea as a way to get more people in the community to interact and be friendly with each other. At least for me, there is a gap of communication between people of different ranks, and I would like to break that barrier even if it is for only the length of the tournament. There are exceptions to everything, but this is a general thing that I have seen and would like to just break that wall just a little bit more. The tournament will be team based with varying ranked ranges on each team. For example (detailed information below), there could be a team with a Rank 40k, 15k, 7.5k, and a Rank 17 on a team. This has multiple ranks in a team with a varying skill set. This will have different sides of the community communicating.

How it works
This then leads you to wonder how I am going to balance it, so that the matches are fair. I decided to do a swapping format of players where each rank range will have their own map pool. This means that for each map they captain will choose a player to play and the map they are going to play. The captain must involve all of their players before they can use the same player again. This adds a bit of strategy to the mix, so the captains can save or use players strategically. Since each rank range has a different map pool, I have decided to make sure the map pool is fair to most. I decided to make it, so that each map that is played is freemod, which means you can put HD, HR, or FL as a mod. These are the only three mods you are allowed to have on at any point in time during a match except for warm ups. I will also allow the captains to ban maps (total depends on the stage), so that they can make a strategy around who each team has played so far and what players they can play currently. In order to ensure that no team is stacked and more interaction occurs between players, I will be making the teams based on who registers for the tournament and will randomly put teams together.

Match Rules
* ALL players must be present for the match. If a player is not present then a replacement will step in and take the player’s spot permanently.
* Each team will get a warm up map. (Be aware everyone will be in the lobby at this point in time, so the lower tier players will be playing with you.)
* Everyone, but the captains are kicked from the lobby and the captains will !roll to see who bans or picks first. The captain with the highest roll will ban second and pick first.
* The captain picks a map and then the official will mark down that the player for that team can not play until every other player on the team has played.
* This will go back and forth till a team has enough points to win
* In case of a DC, it is under the discretion of the official who is in charge of the match of whether or not the map is played again. The official’s decision is final.
([ Yui ] can overrule an official’s decision though.)

Social Rules
* Do not belittle any player at any point of time because of their performance. Everyone is trying their hardest and someone coming in saying they played like shit does not help them. If you break this rule you will be permanently banned from this tournament and any other tournament I make.
* If you are caught cheating during the tournament it will cause a permanent ban from any future tournaments and most likely a permanent ban from osu.
* Seriously don’t be an idiot and treat everyone with respect.

2nd Place: 1 Month Supporter
3rd Place: A Picture of a Cookie

To be honest I am not sure yet I am primarily looking for people who are interested, and then will build the tournament around that. It will take place only on weekends though and most likely won't start till early to mid July.

If I was to make a request, could we not make the maps at lower skillsets slow, boring maps?
Too many times have tournaments been played at 20-40k or similar with 3.5-4* mapsets.

Trust me nothing like that will happen. The maps will be catered to skill possibility meaning that people of a certain rank will be playing maps that challenge them and with the opportunity to show skill. I will be in charge of the final decision, but the creation is based on the map selectors.

Question, what's with the top rank range?

The gap between the lowest end of that bracket and the highest end is just too much, making it kind of unfair for the players on the lower end of the bracket (say I join and face off against the rank 600 player, for example). Is there anything that can be done about that?

As for the maps being played, since each map is picked before the player is picked, and each player can only play once until the whole rotation ends, captain almost always want their players to play in the mappool they should be playing

The thing is, this makes sense for balancing between rank ranges, not an individual rank range. Considering the fact that 1-5k is huge, catering maps to these players is either going to be too easy or too difficult. Also, if you were to use rank as a basis of measure, the three digit will beat the four digit player if they face against each other. Thank you for quoting the rules, I definitely read them through, but I would like an answer from the organizer or confirmed staff, please.

So the reason for the rank range currently is the fact that I was not sure what type of response I would get and whether or not people would sign up, so I kept the ranges kind of large just to compensate lack of participation. I honestly don't expect to get anyone over rank 100, but if it happens it happens. The solution was to make the rank range rather large for that section. I even put down that the rank ranges are subject to change specifically for this reason. I am trying to get the perfect balance down, but my lack of knowledge of the upper tiers makes it a bit difficult. If everyone in Osu! all the sudden signed up then it would be pretty easy to just get a random bunch from certain categories together, but alas most of the community probably doesn't even know these forums exist/care that a random rank 32k is setting up a tournament. I don't plan to start this tournament to quickly because of this fact and by delaying it I can easily come up with better plans. So don't worry about the rank ranges just yet they are just place holders for now. I will fix them if I need to and thanks for the feedback because I honestly don't know the rank range difference and need to take it into account, but sign the sign ups are so small I currently can't do much yet.

The thing is, this makes sense for balancing between rank ranges, not an individual rank range. Considering the fact that 1-5k is huge, catering maps to these players is either going to be too easy or too difficult. Also, if you were to use rank as a basis of measure, the three digit will beat the four digit player if they face against each other. Thank you for quoting the rules, I definitely read them through, but I would like an answer from the organizer or confirmed staff, please.
Oh I see the problem now
I actually considered this when I was reading the rules
"What if the team consist of players with lower end of their brackets in every bracket?"
and then I tried to think of everything they could do to win
My best result was to have the weakest player to play against the strongest player (rank 100k against 4 digit rank) and all other remaining players play in a pool that's 1 rank bracket lower than them (like rank 19k playing in rank 20k~40k mappool, 9k playing in 10k~20k mappool, etc), which place them in upper hand for most of the matches, which is not against the rules (not for now)
IMO, in the end it still ends up on how well the organizer and the staff manage the team balancing I guess.

Okay MAJOR UPDATE. Registration will be ending on July 15th as this gives me plenty of time to make sure everything is set up properly and ready to go for the tournament. I do not have an official date of when it will start, but most likely it will start on July 23rd once the teams are announced on the 16 or 17th of July. Why July? because I really need to make sure this is properly planned and goes well for everyone involved, so I am giving everyone ample opportunity to be ready and prepare.

I am also still looking for some staff, which is listed at the top of the forum. Please pm me if you are interested and all map selectors will not be able to participate in the tournament itself.

If you have any questions please feel the need to ask at any point in time.

I will probably have more updates soon so stay tuned. :D
