GTASL Suggestions

[kr3mlin]

I made this topic cos i couldnt do so in the stunt league section. I figured people could post suggestions for (hopefully) future stunt league tournaments, what they liked about the first, what they didnt like etc

I had an idea to help prevent people using stunts already landed that happend to fit the challenge criteria suggested, although this was not really an issue in the first competition a safeguard would still be nice. Basically for each challenge the participants must use a custom carcols.dat created for that challenge...eg such as making all vehicles a single colour, this would mean any stunts landed would need to be done with vehicles that are the 'challenge' colour

ya, i didnt really have many problems with them, and what if the stunt they landed happenede to be in the same colour? And i don't think they should have another GTASL for atleast awhile....

That's a nice idea.

I think all challenge ideas should be made up before the first one takes place, and have maybe like 5 extra challenge ideas incase something happens.

I personally would like to see a league with conferences and divisions. Every stunter (max of about 30) would compete once a week for maybe 10-12 weeks (10-12 matches each stunter).

We could set up the matches in the same way we did for the GTASL except we would have the public judge each match ( I worry about favoritism and other bullshit) or get a panel of judges and assign one match to three of them (so each match would have three judges, but they won''t be the same for all matches that week).

I like this so that everyone gets to compete a bunch of times instead of just once like half of the participants in the GTASL did.

Nice suggestion kr3m, but I know a way to change the colour of vehicles in old replays.

Noapologies, do you mean like everyone has a certain amount of matches and than the person with the most wins at the end is the winner? I think that would be a cool idea.

Another option is to verify the creation date of the replay.rep files by the judges.
Or can that be influenced by adjusting the time/date-settings in Windows?

Not too sure about changing the windows time and date, but I'm sure there would be a program out there somewhere which would edit the modified date of a file for you.

Yeah prob.
Although ppl would go through alot of trouble cheating the competition.

I can't think of another solution for this matter, other than posting some very original challenges.

I want a tourney with a losers bracket, for the noobs like me

Can't you tell if someone steals a stunt? If it's performed EXACTLY the same way as someone elses, then it's cheating.

I like the idea of a running competition like some actual league with a ladder etc. As long as you can have regular competitiors and judges it would be sweet....

I was thinking of a playoff system for those with the best records. If we could get two conferences with 12-18 stunters we could do a playoff with 6-8 stunters in each conference. That way you still have the drama of the last GTASL and everyone gets to participate a bunch of times.

It would take a long time but it would work much nicer.  It would actually help improve the skills of the needy instead of just fine tune those who already have them.

All good ideas, I moved the topic for ya Kr3m.

[Turtle Dick]

Good ideas!
Maybe this time there should be seperate SA and VC/LC competitions...

Yeah, that is definately one thing which has to be changed.
