Individual World Championships
After Team World Championships, I want organise Individual World Championships.

32 or 64 players. First stage groups, next play off (1/8 final, 1/4 final, etc.) - matches 8 ends. For play off stage to two wins.

Who want play. Official World Champs was:

1st edition: snella
2nd edition: wegma
3rd edition: Talent1
Thank you for organizing the tournaments Wegma. I appreciate the work you put in.

May I suggest a revised format for future tourneys - similar to football (soccer for North Americans), with tiered groups and promotion and relegation? With groups of 8-10 players per tier playing a round robin, then promoting/relegating the top and bottom two players after each round, the competition would eventually be very even overall and would give people a relative ranking. I guess original seedings would have to be loosely based on point level with some manual adjustment. 

While I have the floor, I might also suggest making the games a MINIMUM of 6 ends, with the players of any one game able to agree on 8 or 10 if they wish. This may result in less matches going unplayed.

I really like this suggestion for future tournaments. :)
I would also like to see a North America vs Europe Tournament.

"I would also like to see a North America vs Europe Tournament."


I organised two, maybe three, of these in 2010. The biggest issue was the 5-8 hour time difference when finding times to play.

wegma, you're doing a great job recruiting players!  Keep up the great work.  How are you doing it?  Do you need some help?
Yeah, I need help for You :) thank you very much!

Needed even sixteen players (minimum). I do not always have time to ask the players if they want to play in the championship , so I would be grateful for your help , it can ask those who have played in previous tournaments ? We aim at players yellow , blue, green and brown of course , but they generally declare themselves , and how they do not, they do not want to play :)

Oh, I'm so sorry, wegma, I'm not on here that much and I don't really have the time to be of any help recruiting, but you can always count on me to participate in all the tournaments.  
Wegma, what kind of help do you need - recruiting players?
whitecrj - yes! :)
