the issue I have with hosting a mahjong tourney is 1) not enough players, 2) the circle jerking it brings out since it’s a niche vr game that only a handful anons here play, 3) timing it all; imagine even 16 players playing at the same time, or long ass 4 players play 1 match at a time so it can be refereed, heck even finding 4 players is tough sometimes that aren’t the same anons for qualifiers. 4) coordinating it all, people dont agree on what platform to use, imagine using discord or irc to plan this all, mjg uses irc since some anons hate discord, but its almost just as circle jerky even if its open to anyone to join since it would be a requirement for participation confirmation.And finally all that effort for what? a 10 dollar gift card / pride to say you won vrgs first mahjong tourney. it would just be a attention whore enabling (but what is the thread anyway)
I would like to enable everyone the ability to join on the fun because mahjong is tanoshii but theres a lot of cons that need to be flattens out before a tourney gets green lit in my opinion.
