Proposal: Bismarck tournaments offer everyone a choice

Hey! I propose that, for example, the Bismarck tournament could still have three rounds of all rounds and seats (0,1,2 respectively), each player could still choose a trump and make choices in the selection rounds. The system currently used does the trick, but it is not the most fair and pleasant. There are often games where you can make 4 choices yourself and the next day again zero choices regarding trump, layout, etc. I apologize if the topic has already been covered, I searched and didn't come up. What do you think? AK

Currently, the board is placed according to its position in the leaderboard after each round. You could fix the board with three players after each bet or take and deal. And this would give all players the opportunity to choose the order of making a trump or the order of bet as in a regular game.

Yes, this system should be improved. Here are 2 options now: Either make a 24-round tournament or a combined 16-round tournament: 1 take 1 give 3 trump take 3 trump give 1 lay 6 1 lay A- 3 free lay 3 free games A 16-round tournament lasts 40 min, a 24-round tournament lasts 1 h - won't it be too long?

24-rounds doesn't take long. If you make a few mistakes, there's still a chance to move up in the standings. Other tournaments last around an hour, chess even longer. Anyway, I'm in favor of 24 rounds.

1 24 rounds

Done! Thanks to today's server outage, I was able to post the update right away. So starting today: There are 24 rounds in Bismarck tournaments and every player can also play in 1st position in every game type (except for the free round). Have fun playing!

I found one mistake and will post it tomorrow morning. But I stumbled upon a real situation in my tests, which proves that not everyone always gets the 0-position. The problem is the free rounds. I will give an example based on a real tournament table, where 10 players participated. The first two rounds of the draw were played as follows: Player number) | Result of the first round | Result of the second round 1) 2:2:75 0:2:50 2) 1:1:75 0:1:0 3) 2:-2:0 2:-1:0 4) 2:2:75 2:1:100 5) 0:1:100 1:-3:25 6) 0:-3:0 1:-1:100 7) 0:-2:50 2:0:50 8) 1:0:0 -:-:50 9) -:-:50 0:4:100 10) 1:1:75 1:-3:25 The third round of the game needs to be drawn, but the problem is that 4 players have not played in position 0 at the moment: 3, 4, 8 and 10. However, there are 3 tables in total - so one player still remains Without 0-position. And since the placement in the tables is done from the top of the tournament table, the player who loses 0-position is the player at the bottom of the tournament table. In this case, player no. 10 Good ideas are welcome!

There are also questionable previous rounds - 3 and 4 have been in 2nd position twice and 10 has been in 1st position twice

I guess it's not that big of a problem.

The fact that you can't get a 0-position at the bottom of the table is not a big problem in my opinion. If you are last at the moment, you have to accept it. In Bismarck tournaments, the proportion of chance is higher. In my opinion, there is no need to improve anything.
