ORGANISATION
Feel free to extend the list and please sign up for open ToDos and Equipment.
Box is with me.
First aid kid should be renewed
I have winter balls, all the other balls are with stefan I think
I can check for the rest Tmr
I agree with no groups-also because we are not so many…
I just checked and it is possible to change results of former games in challonge - so missing games can be played when missing players arrive…
I will be in Wördern around 11.00 - so its just us not playing the first games
Thanks
Disc Guard is not mandatory, is it?
Preferable but not mandatory, IMO.
How do people feel about staying overnight/camping in Wördern? looking forward to see you all soon!
What do you mean?
It´s going to be camping as always.
New team: TBAAA - Tina (Vienna), David (Maribor) and Hansi (Linz)
Sign up for responsibilities please. ÖHBPM isn´t going to happen, if the mandatory stuff is not covered.
Bikepolo Graz and Linz can and should also sign up for these
Hm, how would this work in Swiss Rounds? Matches are calculated on current standing. So skipping games and playing them later does not really work?
It would not be correct till they are there, not perfect and a bit improvised… so it’s not ideal but better than round robin…
I am looking forward. I know some people have not been that keen on staying overnight, but mostly due to worse weather some time ago. but the sun is up again, so hopefully it will be like that for another week, yay!
when do we start? i dont know if i can manage to be there before 11:00
We start around 10 I would say. No groups because we don’t have that many teams
So here my game plan suggestion:
Saturday 10:00-20:00 Swiss Rounds
Sunday 09:00-18:30
We could play 2 Rounds on sunday but than it is going to be late again. We could play more rounds if we play 10 Minutes but i would prefer 12 Minutes with stopping.
First round will be reggae knights against instant mix, and if max isn’t there till we play anoher round there will be a small bias in the ranking. I think this won’t be too bad or won’t change that much in the whole game.
Felix will be on time.
Shaki with the last game of the first round
I dont understand the group stage. Every team plays each other? Or just 6 rounds? If so would be quite difficult that every team has equal good opponents. And won’t be there a long waiting time between the games you play (like 2h+)?
Why not making two groups with 6 teams and every team has 5 games. And then longer swiss round and Double elimination as you suggested.
I’m just a bit confused
Can you please check how many winter balls you have and write down your name in the google doc.
@Steppe
Do you have any winter balls at all from BPV? In any case, please bring some of the BPV balls - so we have a fallback.
Thx
6 rounds. And you play the closest to your ranking you haven’t played yet. I don’t like round robin. That’s why Swiss rounds are my suggestion but only works with a big group
