You are welcome! :)
Btw, it is a big fun for me too, I am still enjoying this all organizational work :)

Only problem that I have a huge workload in my office recently, so I have much less time during the working hours for Warlight, and because the Family time is inviolable, remained these morning times for Warlight, not too much :(

This leads to an update which is not enough up-to-date lol (my last one) :D

@DR. Love
You are late, I already labeled you as a raising star, so please reach a Grand Slam semifinal at least :D
Timinator, Timon or culpa, you easy eat any of them as a light breakfast :D

Consider the example of Panagiotis, I have never heard his name before the Tour, and now he is a stable TOP10 players :O Even never heard any good greek players before, but now I can easy labbel them a raising star :D Go for it Greeks! :D

Eh, I am writing the update about the Monday morning state on Wednesday... it will be not very up-to-date :|
The problem is that I have to work a lot in my office recently (what an outrage :D )
But this is not ok (no sense writing not up-to-date update LOL), so despite my freetime issue I will try to write the weekly news on Monday in the future (Tour > Job :D )


Weekly Tour News - Week 35th
  • 54 games finished last week on the Tour.
    The most active player was Buns (5-0), followed by Panagiotis (4-0), MIFRAN (2-2), Pushover (1-3) and Oh (0-4). And very surprising but MoD didn't have any finished games from last week :O :D

  • The present TOP10 on the Tour:
    Rank	Players		    Total points       Win-Loss	Tourney still in/all
    1	master of desaster	990		19-6		5/12
    2	Buns157			905		19-3		5/9
    3	MIFRAN			885		20-5		4/10
    4	Krzysztof		620		16-7		4/11
    5	PanagiotisTheGreekFreak	575		18-5		6/11
    6	Milly			550		10-5		4/9
    7	FlyingBender		495		11-3		4/7
    8	13CHRIS37		455		10-8		2/10
    9	Njord			365		 5-5		2/7
    10	Kantos			360		 4-0		1/1
    	DemHunt(UA)		360		 4-5		2/7
    
    • MoD held number one position (without any finished game :O ) for 4 consecutive weeks already, congrats!
    • But Buns begun to accelerate, did an amazing 5-0 record last week (defeated Botanator, Pushover, MIFRAN, almosttricky, FlyingBender!) And what is more important, that 3 of his 5 wins happened in the two major events! He is still in and doing deep run in both major events, and his next major event game win will mean +180 points for him, and the really huge major points are very close to him already. While MoD already out from the Masters (with an unlucky defeat), and only in the second round in the Grand Slam. So Buns is a better position currently, but there will be 10 more major events so it is nothing for the future :D
    • Panagiotis did a very nice 4-0 run too in the last week, and regain the 5th position. He won 3 games in the Macro Land 250 Series event, and he is already in the quarterfinal, and win one game in the Masters event too, and reached the quarterfinal here too. Btw with this one win he gained +90 points, while with his other 3 wins gained only +45 points! It is well illustrated the point difference between the majors and the other events!
    • MIFRAN did a solid 2-2 record, but his 2 defeats are painful, because he lost against Buns for the Masters quarterfinal, and lost against Hunta for a 500 Series semifinal (both mean many not obtained points).
    • FlyingBender continues the slow climb (10-9-8 were his positions in the previous weeks :D ) And he is still in both major events, so he has got good progress options (he is already in the quarterfinal in the Masters, and second round on the Grand Slam).
    • We have two new players in the TOP10, welcome!
      Both of them gained huge points from major events, Kantos is in the quarterfinal in the Grand Slam, DemHunt is already in the semifinal in the Masters. This is well illustrated too, how important these major events.
      Ok, after 1 year results a Grand Slam quarterfinal (or even a final) won't worth a TOP10 but still will be important.

  • And what about outside the TOP10?
    • There are 8 undefeated players on the Tour:
      Kantos (4-0), Sultan, Reza, le Marseillais, Wazz, Ze, ViralGoat (2-0), EZPickens (1-0)
    • Not perfect, but still nice (at least +3) records:
      Semicedevine (7-2), rakleader (10-6), Jefferspin (7-3), Nackickwind (6-2), DR. Love, USA Biches (6-3), [NL]surfpizza (5-2), almosttricky (4-1)
    • We can see here a few pretenders not only for the TOP10 but number one positions too!
      And they are not very bad position against the present TOP10, because they only have to win some major events and the point difference will disappear very quickly :D And a new major event (Masters) just start in this week!

      https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Ao0SlM6Kv6CE1-Ha5mBIrI6nj4Uft2lMaE25qbXxWHs/pubhtml

  • Match of the week
    Buns vs. MIFRAN 1-0 (Masters 1000 - Treasure Map)
    I chosen this because it was an important fight for the number one position.
    But you can post here interesting fights too!

  • Player of the week
    Buns (see above why :D )
    But I would like to mention some more players.
    Hunta defeated MIFRAN in the 500 Series - Legi's Black Sea event and reach the semifinal, congrats!
    Seems last week was Hunter week (DemHunt run well too :D ) And interesting but both players do his best in only one tourney, though very best on that one :D
    ViralGoat did a nice intro to the Tour, on the 250 Series - ME-Limited Full Dist event he defeated Nackickwind and Jefferspin (!) in the first two rounds, making a 2-0 records, congrats!

  • Some further statistics from the Tour:
    • Only 4 players who still are in both running major events:
      Buns, Milly, FlyingBender, pip
    • 2 players who are joined to all (13) Tour events:
      ANT and Don [ Ω ]
    • 152 players joined to the Tour so far.

Weekly Tour News - Week 36th
  • 42 games finished last week on the Tour.
    The world order was restored, and the most active player was MoD (5-1) again :), followed by FlyingBender (3-1).

  • The present TOP10 on the Tour:
    Rank	Players			    Total points       Win-Loss		Tourney still in/all
    1	master of desaster		1115		24-7			4/12

    3	Milly				920		12-5			4/9
    4	Buns157				905		19-4			4/9
    5	FlyingBender			775		14-4			3/7
    6	Krzysztof			620		16-8			3/11
    7	PanagiotisTheGreekFreak		610		19-6			5/11
    8	13CHRIS37			455		10-8			2/10
    9	Njord				365		5-6			1/7
    10	Kantos				360		4-0			1/1
    	Sułtan Kosmitów 		360		4-0			2/2
    	DemHunt(UA)			360		4-6			1/7
    
    • MoD held number one position for 5 consecutive weeks already and he is the first player over 1000 points, congratulations! And he did again a very nice records (5-1) last week, and he was able to increase his lead.
      So everything seems perfect for him. On the surface, because the situation is not so simple.

      Let me show how the Tour ranking system works, comparing MoD's and Kantos' (or Sułtan Kosmitów's) present ranking situations/possibilities.
      • Currently, MoD has got the best Win-Loss records (+17 (24-7)) on the Tour, he has got the most finals (3 finals, 2 semifinals, 2 quarterfinals so far), etc.
        In short, his performance on the Tour is amazing so far. But :D
        Because he has got very good results from 500 and 250 Series events already, very difficult to him to increase his points in this (best six) section!
        For example his 2 victories last week on the alt team event, meant plus one quarterfinal to him, but no any points! And his next 250 Series semifinal still will count (+45 points), but after that he can gain points from a 250 Series event only if he reach minimum the final! :O And the situation is neither much better regarding the 500 Series event (minimum semifinals need). And after a time (reaching more tourney final and win) only the 500 Series tourney wins (for 500 points) will count for him!
        In the other hand, he already (unlucky) fell out from both major events, gained only 90 points of the maximum 3000! So his 2 wins and the quarterfinal meant 0 points, but his only one defeat in the Grand Slam meant -1910 obtainable points!
      • While Kantos only play in one event so far on the Tour, in the first Grand Slam, and played only 4 games compared with MoD's 31 games! But if he will be able to win his next 3 games in that tourney, he most likely will get the number one position with that 2000 points! Plus he has got good possibilities in the smaller events too, if he join to any 500 or 250 Series event, all game win will mean immediately plus points for him.
      I don't want to say with this that MoD has no chance (it would be silly, because I speak about only 2 of the 12 major events, he can easy win any of the following 3 Grand Slams or 7 Masters (and next summer these two events too)). I only want to show you how the Ranking system works, how important the major events. And want to show to the newcomers that have not missed out on anything.
      If I would start to play on the Tour (with my limited time), my schedule would be the following:
      • I would play all the 12 major events regardless of the templates
      • I would play all the 500 Series events where I don't hate the templates a lot (it means maximum 12 events per year too)
      • I would play only on that 250 Series events where used my favourite or very interesting templates (and depends on my game count from above two categories)

      Ok, now back to the TOP10 :)
    • Milly continued to write his story, and defeated FlyingBender in the Grand Slam quarterfinal, reaching the first GS semifinal position on the Tour, gained the big 720 points award too, congrats!
      Maybe you think this is only a lucky result, but at the beginning of August his Tour record was 2-4, so he did a 10-1 series in August and September (defeated, among others, Turkish (twice), FlyingBender, rakleader)!
    • MIFRAN did a 1-1 records, but his win against MoD in the Grand Slam was very important (especially after his last week defeat against Buns on the Masters), not only because the gained 90 points (which gave him the second position again), but he eliminated one of his rival in a major (it is always a big advantage).
    • Buns' finished only one game, a painful defeat against Sultan in the Grand Slam R16.
    • FlyingBender is already in the fifth position, made a nice 3-1 records, but after 2 great Grand Slam wins he lost to Milly in the quarterfinal.
    • We have a new players in the TOP10, welcome!
      Sułtan Kosmitów reached the Grand Slam quarterfinal, and he has got a nice 4-0 records just like Kantos has. They are both in great position, and imo their ranks will be even more better in the future :)

  • And what about outside the TOP10?
    • Left only 6 undefeated players on the Tour:
      Kantos, Sultan (4-0), Wazz, Ze (2-0), EZPickens, #Master [QB] (1-0) (what a nice list :D )
    • Not perfect, but still nice (at least +3) records:
      rakleader (11-6), Jefferspin, Nackickwind, Semicedevine (7-3), [NL]surfpizza (6-2), almosttricky (5-1), Hades (8-5), USA Biches, Pedro Luiz (6-3),

  • Match of the week
    Milly vs. FlyingBender 1-0 (QF - Grand Slam - Old 1v1 ladder)
    But there were more interesting matches last week:
    MIFRAN vs. MOD 1-0 (R32 - Grand Slam - Old 1v1 ladder)
    Sultan vs. Nackickwind 1-0 (R32 - Grand Slam - Old 1v1 ladder)
    Sultan vs. Buns 1-0 (R16 - Grand Slam - Old 1v1 ladder)
    Beren vs. culpa 1-0 (SF - 250 Series - French Brawl)

  • Player of the week
    Milly

  • Some further statistics from the Tour:
    • Only 2 players left who still are in both running major events:
      Milly and pip
    • Most positions moved up players in the Rankings in last week:

@MoD:
yw once more :)
And yes, your position is not hopeless (LOL you hold almost all the present records :D ) but play with more focus on the majors :P
there are still more than enough from those!
Well, you are right, unlimited majors will be in the future, I hope you know that the Tour is an endless series just like the Ladders :P

@Min34
First of all I am very happy that there is at least one people who read through my TLDR weekly news :D :D

Second, your arguments (actually mine, quoted :D ) are very strongs, but I must tell that these "Player of the week" and "Match of the week" categories are very subjective things, based on only my feelings :D

Sultan performance was amazing indeed, but he wasn't the first :) I mean, Kantos already did it before him :D
And I was very impressed when I saw that Milly defeated FlyingBender and reached the Grand Slam semifinal (and he was the first who did this btw :D ) and his story is still going on. And as I wrote, it seems that this is not only an upset, an one time result (maybe I will be wrong, but that recently 10-1 records doesn't seem an accident :P)

And these "X of the week" categories are nothing serious only for more fun (for me :D :P )

    • MoD held number one position for 6 consecutive weeks already, congratulations!
      He did a nice 3-0 records last week, which allows him to keep the points difference against the 2nd position.
    • Milly is already in the second position, with a 2-2 last week record. He reached his second major quarterfinal but then FlyingBender defeated him for the semifinal as a riposte his Grand Slam defeat (so now 1-1 :D). He did a nice first round win against Phaeril in the 3rd major event and won the opportunity to meet MIFRAN in the second round :D (that is a tough part of the bracket :O )
    • FlyingBender continues to climb, and he is already in the fourth position. His last week record only 1-2, but his only (riposte) win against Milly meant a major semifinal!
    • Panagiotis did a 2-1 records, but his only defeat (boot in the distribution phase) in the French Brawl event's final meant that he didn't obtain a tourney win after his many semi- and quarterfinals :(
    • Sułtan Kosmitów won his next two games too in the last week, so his present record is an impressive 6-0 (Nackickwind was who started similar, but he did it in smaller events)
    • Interesting, but already 5 of the TOP10 players fell out from the second Masters event :O
      And if we add to this that many more not (yet) TOP10 but good players fell out too, well will be top players phobia on Phobia? :D

    FlyingBender vs Milly 1-0 (QF - Masters 1000 - Treasure Map)
    FB won the rematch (last week he lost to Milly in Grand Slam quarterfinal)

    More highlighted games from last week:
    • Beren vs Panagiotis 1-0 (F - 250 Series - French Brawl)
      Despite Panagiotis distribution boot, Beren well deserve this tourney win, congrats!
    • Timinator vs timon92 0-1 (R64 - Grand Slam - Old 1v1 ladder)
      Timon won the Tim vs Tim battle :)
      And as I know, recently, in many series this result is the standard :O :P
      I hope that Timon's busy days soon over and will come and try to conquer the Tour :D
      And hope that Timi will show us soon a real Timinator performance on the Tour :P

      It was a really long game from the first round of the third event :O
