In another thread someone was complaining about the rudeness in tournaments.
Personally i usually enjoy tournaments: meeting old friends and new ones, playing a games of go, drink a beer, chat and go out to have dinner somewhere.
Some questions about real life tournaments:
- do you ever visit real life tournaments?
(And if so what are your experiences? If you don’t, why not?) - what makes a go tournament a good tournament (one that you definitely want to visit again)?
- if you are a go tournament organizer: what are the challenges you encountered when organising a tournament and how did you overcome them?
I know this is a lot of questions with maybe rather difficult answers, but feel free to participate in this thread.
One request: no naming and shaming of a specific go tournament. Of course if the tournament was great and you had a great time, you can name those tournaments
