Woman SIM? Why is not present?

Postby fravalxbox360 » Sat, 17 Jul 2010 18:59

Hello, management ITST and members, Why is not present Woman SIM
Tournament?

But in SIM MAN, in referring to my Discussion on RT (risk Shot)

Is possible to make Risk or not?

And Why Drop shot , with x , are not allowed? I think is impossible yo abuse of X because is difficult to make points! 8)

But Why in SIM only 18 members and NAME must be only these
indicated?

Hi Fraval - I will do my best to answer the below for you:

Hello, management ITST and members, Why is not present Woman SIM
Tournament? As far as I know Women's singles SIM (WSS) was talked about and even voted on via Poll. From recent memory the general consensus was that people would like to see WSS - however I think there were concerns about how popular it would be, as normal WS is not that popular itself. Also a lot of work has been done recently to perfect the Men's singles SIM tour (MSS) so perhaps WSS will be a new project going forward - I would PM Djarivk on this one.

But in SIM MAN, in referring to my Discussion on RT (risk Shot)

Is possible to make Risk or not? - There are NO rules in MSS restricting risk with LT, RT or L+RT. i.e. Risk is allowed with RT

And Why Drop shot , with x , are not allowed? I think is impossible yo abuse of X because is difficult to make points - I am assuming you are talking about "risk short slice" with X as drop shots are performed with Y or the stick. Again both drop shot or short slice are allowed, although I believe serving and then either drop shot or risk slice on the next point is deemed "cheesy" - although to re-iterate it is allowed.


But Why in SIM only 18 members and NAME must be only these
indicated? - There were 18 players, now there are 21 players. The combinations were chosen to allow members to choose the set up that most suits them, I think the above choice is more than sufficient and offers all sorts of variety and combinations of XP's. My understanding is that the current roster of 21 'might' grow in the future as more character models are tested - however again best to PM Djarivk

The NAME choice was restricted so members could easily identify who is who in the roster when playing each other amongst other reasons I guess. There has been similar talk and opinion by others who would like to name the players themselves, however I am not too sure where the ITST mgt team are upto with it. To be honest, I am not too bothered, I like my Baghdad Cannon :D

Hope this helps

I reckon wss could be very interesting. Perhaps a small-roster pilot - maybe only 6 or 8 ladies....trial it for a couple of tournaments....if sufficient uptake, expand etc?

Think could be interesting with better rally prospects that SIM inherently brings.....hmmmmm.....Al?

Here is my problem thou, fravalxbox360 creates this topic, and only one person responds. :? So I am thinking we would have hard time getting even 6-8 players.

BTW - we do need 9 at least to create any tournament.

What I suggest is this: If you would like to try WS SIM, please sign your name here, in this thread.

What I will do is setup a tournament similar to "Djarvik Open". We will use the current MSS roster and will draft players, to make sure we get the full experience. Height and weight may stay the same for now.

Never underestimate the pain of a person, because in all honesty, everyone is struggling. Some people are just better at hiding it than others.
