GGPO Third Strike Danisen Battles?

metric · March 15, 2010, 11:22pm

Well, when you lose you wait for your turn to play again, you will have to be patient in the first few battles because everybody will be starting at 1st dan. Later on though, you will be able to play people in your respective rank and wont really have to worry about waiting too long. If you watch the Japanese battles you will notice that if they lose, they will play again eventually in the video, unless of course if they get -3 and drop Dan.

O and I’m really not sure how a Dan battle ends, I was just going to have it from 5:30 to 9. If anybody could clear this up on how a Dan battle ends, I’d appreciate it.

Metric,

Is it recommended to start with one character or should we list all the ones we play? IIRC each new char starts at (+0) so for the first couple battles do you want just one char per player name to keep the list more concise? Just wonderin’. :tup:

metric · March 16, 2010, 3:40am

Yep, 1 character tonight, lets keep it simple for the first few.

What are the Dan Battle rules?
[LIST][]New players begin at 1st Dan
[]Players fight other players within 1 rank of themselves
[]One win = +1 point, One loss = -1 point, +3 moves the player up 1 rank, -3 moves the player down 1 rank
[]Rankings go from 1st to 10th Dan, with special rankings after 10th Dan
[]After 10th Dan, players only fight other players of the same rank, and must instead get +5 points to move up a rank
[]When you play a different character it’s treated as a new player, so you will start at 1st Dan
[/LIST]
I’m on GGPO, how do I sign up?
If you aren’t on the list, post in this thread with your GGPO name and character you want to use in the Dan Battle. If you can, let me know that you have posted in the thread so I can add you to the list. (Note: You will probably be ignored if you say “HEY ADD ME”.)

How is this going to work exactly?
The player who wins plays till he loses or moves up in rank. If someone moves up rank, they will continue to play till they lose unless no one in their respective rank or 1 within are on. Because players fight within 1 rank of themselves you will be forced to wait for someone to reach 1 rank within yours. While this is happening the second match will be played of new drawn players.

GGPO Rules
[LIST][]Remember this isn’t a public event, I can’t call out your name to tell you to play. If you don’t respond in 5 mintutes, you will be skipped.
[]If you have tried to connect with the player and by all means you cant get a connection, I will have to random you against a different player.
[]Smoothing is important, change it based on your opponents MS(ping). (1-2 10-70ms x 3 []70-110ms x 4 120ms)
[*]Yes, there will be times where you will have to wait and be dare I say… patient.

Note: This is for fun. The great thing about the Dan Battles is you don’t have to worry about getting peaced out and not being able to play till the next tournament. You will always have someone to play. The ranking system will track your skill progress every week, put in work, see results. As long as people respect the reporters and spectators things should go smoothly. But if you don’t, I will have to remove you, a lot of this is riding on the people reporting and spectating and the least you can do is make their/my life easier.
