Suggestion for Blockout World championships

[amit]

With the Old Blockout, there used to be World championships in Germany till 2007 but now with Blockout players being in different countries and everyone having to self fund their trips, it will be tough to get people at the same place for a World championship, so it's better to have a World championship online

Here is my suggestion for a Blockout World championships -

People participating in World championships will have to be online at same time, as most people will be from Europe and I will be there from India, so timings of evening around 6-7 GMT on a weekend will suit everyone and that will be evening in Europe, around midnight in India and afternoon in USA. Players can be shortlisted on the basis of their high scores in Blockout and hoping we can get some old players back who are currently inactive

Some setups can be decided for Blockout World championships besides the traditional setups of Out of Control, 3D Mania and Flat Fun. Some setups like 3x3xn can be there in Basic & Flat while in Extended a setup like 6x6xn or 7x7xn can be there

Players get 5 attempts in the setups they are playing and the one who has the highest score in these 5 attemps gets declared as the winner. Like we have 2 players A and B in OOC setup in the championship, A makes scores of 250000, 320000, 15000, 280000 and 310000, then his highest score of 320000 will be counted. B makes scores of 100000, 270000, 300000, 260000 and 180000, then his highest score of 300000 is counted and A is declared the winner. Same rule is applied with more players as well

Live streaming should be done in somewhere like Youtube and everyone participating should share their screens when playing Blockout so that the games can be live streamed and players can see the scores of their opponents too when playing

I hope we can get some people together for this.

It would be nice to have a World championships again in BlockOut.

Sounds like a fun idea, if there is more than a single person playing 3D Mania, I'm trying to reach 180K+ in 5 attempts.

Yes hoping we do have some type of World championships and held online with screen sharing and live streaming
