2v2 and 1v1 Tournament Recaps 

Who's doing the write-up for these? Is saito just swamped? I only say this because it's been a while (a week?) since the 2v2 concluded - and still no article...

I want the dirt on these events...

Re: 2v2 and 1v1 Tournament Recaps 

Con... that isn't the point... the site shouldn't rely on it's users for content about the events it runs.

Don't take that the wrong way.

Re: 2v2 and 1v1 Tournament Recaps 

Well right now we've only got 2 or 3 people actually "on" the site, so it's difficult for us to fill every role at once.

Other than outside responsibilities, I'm a player 1st, event admin 2nd, and website admin/quasi-journalist 3rd, so my priorities dictate that I probably won't be writing a whole lot of articles. But this whole site was based around the idea of community interaction. Anyone can write an article about anything and submit it.

As RA knows, we're having some difficulty in getting new admins actually added to the website, but being "on" or "off" the site changes nothing as far as adding content goes. The reason there's no write-ups is because Saito and I have been busy and nobody else either knew they could submit it or felt like doing it.


PS I'm taking everything you say the wrong way from now on! >:O

Re: 2v2 and 1v1 Tournament Recaps 

The 2v2 write up is nearly done. I frankly have not had that much time, and not that many demo's to review. It will be up in the next day.

The 1v1 write up... err haven't started and don't know if I personaly will be the one to write it.

;)

We have 2 more admins now, which will make thins much easier.

Re: 2v2 and 1v1 Tournament Recaps 

Yeah I know you guys are really busy, which is why I didn't want you to take it in a way such that you thought I was saying "you guys suck get with the program and write stuff." I was just replying to your statement that led me to believe that the only way someone who wanted information about the events was for some miscellaneous user to come post something.

Re: 2v2 and 1v1 Tournament Recaps 

i think we're waiting on the demos to come in from the server admins (*cough* :)) before any detailed recap of the 1v1

Re: 2v2 and 1v1 Tournament Recaps 

I didn't take it negatively, and I know that it's up to us to cover our events (and frankly it's best that we do it), I believe that somebody who knows something about the event should do it, and not some random person.

I think concretes comments were a broad thrust of “anybody can add anything they want to this site” to help populate it. Since at the current moment there are a lot of requests for various changes and content additions. The thing is while it is our responsibility to do the work, most features here (demos, pics, vids) are made for people to add stuff as they do it.

The comment isn't directed at you DP (I know your well aware of that) but this seemed like a good point to blast it at the myriad of people that contact us with “why are the no xxx demos”, who don't seem to realize that they can submit content.

That said it will be up sometime tomorrow (my write up) it's just my attentions have been focused on other issues for the past while.
