Potential Tourney?

I can't help but notice that ICO is slowly dying off, BUT there is a large number of newer players and veterans who are struggling to find new players, or more frequent games. So, i purpose an idea. What if we, the sins community, organize a open tournament for all players? With some simple advertisment we could reopen the doors to ICO to people who lost faith, and those who just get down right p1553D at smurfs, or whatever else people like to use to justify their leaving. I myself have noticed there has been a increase in people who have owned this game, but are just trying out ICO. This could boost the popularity a little, and rekindle the love for MMO4X games that we all have somewhere deep inside of us :P I am sure we would attract a summable group of noobs as well, so it could be a even playing field.

Don't see why not. People with xfire should only join, so we could keep track of them. Whenever somebody leaves without finishing a game, somebody reports it on xfire, and we remember the user name (and hopefully a ip so we can see if they are smurfing) I do share your feeling of it seeming a little too big of a idea to work, but if we spread the word enough, maybe it will be enough to attract some people at the verfy least. If this post made it too google lol SOMEone would find it.

Would be nice to gain atleast 12 people. Then it would be a possibility. As for now, all we can do is try to reach to the corners of the gaming universe for anyone who would like to be involved. If somebody has the time, they could make a webpage, and we could use that for a public list of bans. If it were even to be something like a clan, haha I dunno.

I'm just going to start by collecting xfire accounts, and coordinate it from there. So add my user name if you got it to see what we can do.
