Voting: Voting for "Primes" Voting is closed.

All the results of this contest are posted below, in the second post.



Dear Tournament Fans,

The Tournament Organizers Usergroup has decided to launch a contest: “Tournament Organizer of the Year – 2011”. We got the inspiration for the format from the “Oscars” (thanks to DJ Teflon and sonicsteve), the yearly awards for the movie industry.

Our awards are “Primes” in honor of Optimus Prime, the Godfather of the CC Tournament World (thanks to barterer2002 for the idea).

We have put together a variety of categories for which the winning tournaments and their organizer will be awarded Golden, Silver and Bronze Primes, as well as two separate contests for the TO of the Year and the TO Career Awards (see below).

Everybody on CC is free to participate, however, you cannot nominate your own tournament(s) and every nomination needs to be accompanied by a valid reason for the nomination to be eligible for entry in the contest.

If you have any questions, please post them in this thread.

Have fun all!

Current Leader of the TO Usergroup

TO of the Year Contest - 2011

The “Prime Awards”
[spoiler=primes]The contest for the 17 categories named below will done in public, in this thread. Anybody can nominate a tournament providing a valid reason why the tournament should win in the particular category, with one exception: You cannot nominate your own tournament. The same tournament can be nominated for various categories. Voting for each tournament is public. The three winning entries for very category will go through a voting process within the TO Forum. The TO Usergroup Members will vote to see which tournament will receive the Golden, Silver and Bronze “Prime Awards”. This would be a fictional award, not a medal. All the “Golden Prime” winners will automatically be nominees for TO of the Year (see below).

• Best Small Tournament
• Best Mid-Sized Tournament
• Best Large Tournament
• Best Huge Tournament
• Best Terminator Tournament
• Best Assassin Tournament
• Best 1 v 1 Tournament
• Best Doubles Tournament
• Best Triples Tournament
• Best Quadruples Tournament
• Best Large-Team Tournament
• Best International Tournament
• Best Speed Tournament
• Best Mixed Tournament
• Best Sports League Tournament
• Best Tournament Series
• Most Creative/Innovative Tournament

Notes:

• Although there are many different ways to determine "tournament size", we decided to use the following method: Small, mid-sized, large and huge tournaments will be classified based on the number of entries (teams or players) times the number of games the winner or winning team have played. This would result in a score, which determines the size of the tournament. The tournament "scores scale" is as follows:
  
  
  • Up to 500 = Small
    
  • 501 to 1500 = Medium
    
  • 1500 up to 4000 = Big
    
  • More than 4000 = Huge
  
  
• A tournament series is defined as: A series of at least 5 completed tournaments that either follow a similar design and set-up, or, lead to a common goal, such as a Grand Finale or a championship. The titles of the tournaments should indicate that they are part of a series. For this contest at least one tournament of the series must have started and been completed in 2011. [Edited Jan. 11]
  
  
• Tournaments must have been successfully started and completed in 2011, with two exceptions:
  
  
  • Tournaments that started before 2011 and were successfully completed after March 31st, 2011.
    
  • Tournaments that have entered the finals and/or the final round before the end of the year and are completed no later than January 31st, 2012.

TO of the Year
[spoiler=TO of the Year]This TO will be decided by the TO Group, in our forum. The “Golden Prime” winners are automatically nominated, others can be nominated in the forum by a TO Group member, with a valid reason. You cannot nominate yourself.
After that the TO Group decides a winner by using a scoring system (similar to what DJ Teflon used for the latest tournament contest). The three winners will receive the Golden, Silver and Bronze “Prime Awards” The Golden Prime Award winner will receive a General Achievement Medal. TO members will post their scores for the following 18 categories to decide the winners:

• Amount of tournaments
• Creativity in tournaments
• Diversity in tournaments
• Presentation of tournaments
• Organization of tournaments
• Updating tournaments
• Amount of abandoned tournaments
• Amount of rescued tournaments
• Amount of co-hosted tournaments
• Helping out new TOs with their tournaments
• Providing answers/solutions to questions/problems of fellow TOs
• Providing suggestions to improve tournaments
• Providing General Achievement Medals in tournaments
• Attracting new players to tournaments
• Retaining happy players in their tournaments
• Problem solving in their tournaments
• Communicating in their tournaments
• Positive influence on the tournament community

The following scoring system will be used to determine the performance of TOs with regards to the various categories:

0 = Not applicable/Don’t know
1 = Very Poor
2 = Poor
3 = Reasonable
4 = Good
5 = Very Good
6 = Excellent

To determine the final score the worst three scores and the best three scores will be taken away, the remaining 12 scores will be added up.[/spoiler]

TO Career Award
[spoiler=Career Award]This is another category decided by TO Group members. Simply put it will be an award for the TO that had the most positive influence on the tournament world of CC over the years that CC exists. Candidates can only be nominated by TO Group members with a variety of valid reasons. The winner will be voted for by TO Group members as well. The winner will receive a General Contribution Medal.[/spoiler]

HA's 200th Tourney

Category- Big Tournament

Ran by: HighlanderAttack

Reason: Tough to handle as an organizer because of its size, and it has a lot of thought put into it. Also a lot of generosity (premium bounties etc).

This nomination fails in so many ways.


My congratulations on a very nice job by Lindax and the other TOs.

I would like to nominate Oliver for TO award

2012 Olympics tournament under Sports, Mixed and Huge tournaments. It was quite well organized, an amazing feat considering how huge it is.

Best Large Team tournament - Merch313's Intergalactic Tourney. This was fun because I got to play with a ton of people for several weeks that I normally wouldn't have ever played with. (I'm not sure if this one has finished, if not, the majority of the teams have been out for a while and it'd be on the downhill stretch).

Best Mixed tournament - Dean's Mini-Clan Wars viewtopic.php?t=151602 - Was a very competitive group of people and had a fun mix of 1v1, dubs, quads.

Best Large Tournament - Epic Teams viewtopic.php?t=142815 - Was very unique setup with every possible team combination and trying to find 11 home maps, then playing a best of 33 per round.

Most Creative/Innovative - Chap's Pick 'em Challenge series - It was always fun to see how many people would challenge you in a round and the maps and settings that people wanted.


I nominate Chapcrap for TO of the year. The guy rocks at keeping his tourneys updated & moving along. Plus it seems like he always has a list of ones that you can sign up for and has 30 active right now.

I nominate HighlanderAttack for TO Career Award. The guy has organized over 200 tournaments and always does a great job keeping them going.

[barterer2002]

I have a few nominations for you here.

1. Best Large Team Format: TLO 2010. Begun April 18, 2010, ended July 22, 2011. Organizer Lindax. The TLO series is the best large team format I've seen. Its well run, consistently updated, has little sub games within the tournament (Christmas) and fairly simple to understand while still using a variety of maps.

2. Best Assassin Tournament: Masters of Assassin Begun June 20, 2011, currently in finals (obviously needs to finish this month to qualify). Organizer poptartpsycho18. I wasn't sure how this one was going to go but I really enjoyed it. THe game load wasn't too bad there was enough of a pause between rounds but not too much to make it forgotten. Its not a simple thing, well worthy of the TPA Major label.

3. Best 1v1 tournament: CC Golf Match Play Begun October 26, 2010, ended September 29, 2011. Organizer: shaneback. The 1v1 format often is a bracket style which this one is but this one has the twist of playing golf style match play using twice on each map for 18 "holes" Well organized, kept up to date and original concept.

4. Best Terminator Tournament: Exterminator Begun January 3, 2011, ended December 8, 2011. Never stalemated, always updated, constantly moving forward yet clear in the objectives as to how to survive. An original format for terminators.

I would also like to nominate Night Strike for the career award. He's run the tournament department for longer than any other TD in CC history and has overseen tremendous growth. He took the tremendous base that OptimusPrime left him and has built on it with decisions that weren't always popular but always moved the tournament department forward. His hands are often tied by the webmaster but he rarely complains (at least in public) about that. He has recruited a solid group of TDs to assist him over the years, replacing and refilling as needed. There are certainly people who have disagreed with his decisions, as I have at times as well, but I've never doubted that he has always listened to what is said in all the tournament forums and tried to make the best decisions possible for the CC tournament community. Had I been in his shoes I'd have walked away from his often thankless job many years ago and yet here he still stands, his hand still firmly on the rudder steering tournaments into the future. And so I nominate Night Strike for meritous career service to the CC tournament community.

[HighlanderAttack]

So there are many many really good organizers in my opinion. The one that stands a little taller than the rest is merch313.

I nominate him for TO of the year. All of his tourneys are run smoothly. He adds flare to all of them with some kind of art work that is a basic theme for each map. Always a professional and positive when running his tourney. Can't think of anyone that deserves the TO of the year award more.

Tournament: GameZZone: Diablo

Tournament Organizer: [player]Amazzony[/player]

Nomination Categories:
* Best Large Tournament
* Best Mixed Tournament
* Best Tournament Series
* Most Creative/Innovative Tournament

The reason why your nomination should win: This is the third in Amazzony's "GameZZone" tournaments which are loosely based off her favorite computer games (which also happen to be my favorite). What makes this tournament unique is that amount of variability that each individual player affected. There were 7 different "classes" to sign up for, and each class allowed you to adjust the gameplay of the maps you would play in some fashion. This was anywhere from reinforcements to map to fog. The innovation that Amazzony used to create the intricate rules structure of this tournament was beyond amazing.

Since this tournament also consisted of 12 stages your opponents and games were constantly changing which forced the leaders of the tournament to be a master of every game type... proving that the best all-around players would come out on top. To make this even more exciting, the winner of the tournament was in doubt all the way to the last of the 12 rounds which lead to intense competition and very fun game chat for all of us involved.

I am new to tournament and found Highlanderattack and eagleblade very pleasant to work with as a new player to tournament. enjoyed there many tournaments. I look to run some tournament and I will use these two as my models

I nominate highlanderattack for Big tourney, He run a very smooth tournament, He is well organized and easy to communicate with. I think he does an exceptional job.

I nominate eagleblade for 1 vs 1 tournaments. He is one of the hardest working tournament directors out there. His tournaments are well organized and covered a variety of maps and let everyone choose custom settings. ( I bet a lot of work).

I think both of them deserve a reward for there tireless hours of hard work.

God Bless

I will give this some thought over the next few days and go through the tourneys ive played and know about and put up more nominees.

But for Large Tourney I nominate HighlanderAttack for his 200th Tourney.. Just the size of player pool and the time it took to make games. All the work he did for the bounties and prizes was just impressive.

I will give my thoughts on others as well this tourney just stood out to me as the winner

I would think that HA's 200 would be a shoo-in, but I'm not sure if it qualifies because it won't be in the Finals or finished by January 31, will it?

The 200th will be a two year tourney when said and done--maybe even a little longer--with all that was involved and with real life slowing me down in every aspect of CC contributing as well. Even if I had perfect timing with the 200th the number of players and the format still equate to a two year tourney.

LX--I also wonder how we can get the word out on this a little more.

I am sure a lot of players are planning to take the time to do some nominations so that is why the responses are slow.

I just wonder being at the top of this page it is not getting noticed by many of the players--maybe if something could be added to the create/join pager where most players check out on a weekly basis at least.

Just my thoughts
