Why don't we have an option to set friendly cups as single elimination tournaments? I think it would be a nice add as some of us want to do a single elimination tourney without group stage...

I think the reason for so far not adding this is, that if someone pays credits for a friendly cup, the team should have more than 1 game to play.
But of course this would be an issue of how much the teams have to pay.

Yes. When I wrote this stuff I felt there has to be a minimum # of games for each participant.

A solution could be, to have just an option on the current existing formats, which gives the chance to have ALL group stage teams in a playoff format, AFTER the group stage.

Group stage would serve as seat staging and then it's playoff time.

The option ticked add X credits to the initial price per team and Y% of that extra is added to the payout.

This would basically make the cups just longer.

I think there could be something done regarding a 10 credits cost for a 8 team tournament knock-out system, or perhaps 15 credits for a 16 teams tournament knock-out system.
I think it's an ok credit cost, because you can play only 1 game and get eliminated.
The first option with 8 teams looks more cooler, compared to the 16 team one, because let's face it.
I don't think you will find 16 teams who are willing to pay 15 credits to get eliminated in the first round, but with 8 teams you cand have a higher chance, for the cost of only 10 credits.

but then theres still group stage and ur playing games that mean nothing i mean u still play 1 game besides that should be for the user to decide besides at least the cup doesnt take 2 months...

i mean the whole point of friendly cups is to have fun and gain credits its not a formal competition besides you dont make more money so it doesnt really matter if u only play a game...
