I want to say thank you everyone for playing, I really really enjoyed modding this and am hoping you guys enjoyed playing! I appreciated how active you guys were, I didn't have to prod very often as you guys were on the ball with responding.
A special thanks to Inspiratieloos for stepping in as a replacement, you definitely wrecked these Round Tables!
Also, thanks aura for falling on your sword and letting us play it in the finals.
The duel games were a bit problematic, especially due to the way the earlier rounds got all the fun ones out of the way so the higher the stakes became over time the less interesting the actual games. Mancala and Zilch are terrible, and if not for aura's sacrifice we'd have been stuck with Boggle too. No idea how Take it Easy lasted so long without being picked, it was pretty interesting.
Maybe if you plan to do something like this again give every player a veto starting from the bottom, that way the players who aren't in the elimination rounds can reserve the more interesting games for the later rounds.
Yeah I would definitely say duels were the weaker point on this, some didn't go as well as I had planned. I really like the idea of non-elim players vetoing the duels, maybe they would veto duels instead to save ones that they like.
I definitely plan to run something like this again, I would need to hash out duels and whatnot, but not for a while. This was quite a commitment to stay on top of
