ut.wyps.264.1.1

I would normally put this one in the number wyps forum, but there is no such forum! This User tournament just started for ascending wyps (original) 15 players entered this double round robin user tournament. Why did the system make one very large tournament? I would think the ideal set up for 15 players would be three groups of five players each. As it is, we all now have to play 28 games of ascending wyps! I am excited to be able to play this variation again, but 28 games is just too many!!

maybe the user made it so

No, I think this change was made some time ago. Monthly and User tournaments begun to have max 15 (or more?) instead of max 9 players.

But this means for double round robin tourneys 2x14 = 28 games :)

there's good and bad with that. Results are less dependent on if you are lucky and get an easy group in the first round. On the other hand, yes, more games to play. But isn't that what we are here for?

Playing 1 WYPS move is like playing 5 other game moves for me, so 28 games would be like 140 other games. Good I withdrew at the last moment!

No somar96, to bad you moved out... if you hadn't there would have been less games....

and by the way... there is a WYPS forum... it is called the word game forum.

for number wyps too? :)

apparently, by the way the question was about the UT's so it should have gone in the 'tournament forum' :-)
