Here's a random idea I just had. At the moment there seem to be three tournaments going on. There is of course JDC, and then there are two smaller tournaments being organized in this forum. I always like seeing new tournaments pop up, and finding new ways to generate interest is always a good thing...
So here is what I was thinking. How about the various tournaments being organized here are cross-promoted on JDC? The way this would work is whoever wins one of these tournaments gets points on JDC, assuming they have an account. The points would be added as an event.
I figure this would generate more interest in whatever tournaments players want to organize themselves, and perhaps even encourage more of them to happen. One benefit would be that news would be posted on the JDC site. It would also make JDC a bit more interesting, I think, by expanding its scope a little.
Of course, this is just an idea, for now. This will only happen unless the organizers here agree it's agree its a good idea, and decide to go through with it.
Probably nothing will come of this. JDC actually tried something like this <a href="http://www.jazz2online.com/jdcs/jdce/">before</a>, by running a single elimination tournament along side the main tournament, and it didn't work out. Mostly because we tried to do a bit too much in too short a time. The stuff going on right here is a bit different though, and I think more likely to succeed.
Still, I'd like to hear what people think of this idea, even if it's just a random thought that popped into my head literally 10 minutes ago.
