Globus wrote:Host Bid

I would like to bid on the host position. I have played around with and am familiar with xkorante, which is the scorinator I will use if hosting. In the spoiler below is the scorination format.


While you have used xkorante and you RP, I'm not sure if you've gained the community's trust with constant RPing.

RP Bonus:
No RP post = .000 for next MD only
Single RP post = .100 for next MD only
Two consecutive RP posts = .300 for next MD only
Three consecutive RP posts = .500 for next MD only
Each consecutive thereafter = .700 for next MD only

*Effect of bonus is an absolute 25% bonus.
*Once a day is missed, bonus starts over at .000
*Only one RP post per day will be counted
*Obviously, one-liners and such are not counted


Why are consecutive RPs treated better? In a ten-game group stage, is somebody who consistently posts every other day worse than somebody who posts five days in a row and then leaves NS?

This will be my first time hosting a tournament, but I feel exceed all the qualifications.
#1: I have RPed in NS sports before.
#2: I am familiar with xkoranate.
#3: It's summer, I practically live on NS, so inactively will not be a problem.
#4: I welcome feedback on my scoring or grading system.


You do have the prerequisites, but what would make your bid better than one from an experienced nation?


Also, I need to know how you want the medal table to affect the bonuses. I was thinking a .300 bonus for first, .275 for second, .250 for third, so forth.



I'm fairly sure the WLC has its own set of rankings.

Estenian Host Bid for World Lacrosse Championships 19

Image

IC information: Estenia is an island nation in the middle of Curente Ocean in Atlas. Estenians have a long sports tradition since their creation on 1399. On 1896 they adopted association Football and on 1902 they adopted Lacrosse. Estenia has a large tradition at sports with Lacrosse being 4th most popular after Canadian and American Football and Association Football. Estenian Lacrosse stadiums vary, as they have lots of college stadiums and college teams.

OOC Information: The user behind Estenia hasn't hosted any official tournament, they have only hosted several domestic leagues, Ingluding rugby,association Football and Australian Rules Football. If the user behind Estenia wins the bid it will the first tournament the user has ever hosted.

Scorination and RP Bonus: Games will be scorinated with the latest version of xkoranate which I really trust. RP bonus will be given on a scale from 0.00 to 10.00, it depends on how well the player RP's. If the RP is amazing the player will get from 5.00 to 7.00, if the player RP's moderately, will get from 2.00 to 4.99, if the player RP's badly, the player will get from 0.00 to 1.99 RP bonus. RP well if you want a good RPing boost.

Groups Format: If we reach 20 Signups, 5 groups of 4 will be placed, If we reach 32 Signups, there will be 8 groups of 4 teams. I hope that we can reach 32 signups, as it will be very easier to form it.
