Starts 10pm eastern tonight. Be on southperry.net for the webcam/drawing setup/omok sets
Alright Henesys Game Park, henesys channel 9. The game corner is the right of henesys. Meet ya guys there. depending how many show up at the game corner determines if I even bother with the webcam thing.
Spoiler
Cus we're all nerds who love advanced connect 4 amiright?! Hopefully one of the event coordinators or [blesshisheart] eos will just move this in the event section. If not f`uck it ITS GENERALLY A MAPLESTORY THING RIGHT?!
I was going to host this like 2 months ago but somehow nexon made omok into a ban/dc hack. Anyway to the point!
HI SOUTHPERRY WELCOME TO KHAINIWESTS OMOK TOURNEMENT UHH
Exclaimer I will be providing the omok sets.
rules
2 sets of 2/3, one set one party goes first, second set the other party goes first. First turn does have it's advantage and disadvantage, I feel like everyone should get the oppurtunity to flex both oppurtunities. Plus it becomes more of a battle of skill rather than a slip up.
Redo's are allowable, but it's up to the judgement of the players. But if it's really a genuine slip up (Clicked one place over from the intended obvious spot) and the players is being a jack ass about it (I TRUST YOU WILL ALL BE MATURE SOUTHPERRICANS) then you can PM me the screenshots and I'll determine if a legitimate rematch is required. I have over 5,000 games so I think you guys can trust my judgement.
If a disconnect happens, SS the game. I think common sense will dictate whether it was unintentional or not. If it was an intentional dc to avoid a loss, auto disqualified.
Requirements
In order to participate you must have;
An omok set I WILL BE PROVIDING THE SETS.
A level 16 character in Khaini. I say 16 because that allows you to do almost everything necessary. I say that we have all omok matches at gaming area at the right of henesys. This is still up for debate so if you have a better suggestion feel free.
Time to actually participate. Everytime these things happene people drop like flies because they can't manage to get matches set up. So I'm giving a 3 day notice every "round". If you are going to have trouble with a 3 day turn around then its probably not in your better interest to waste all of our time.
How it works
This is going to be a crossworld omok, so you have to have one mule in Khaini. We will I say level 20(or even 16 now I believe) you can use all resources in maple necessary to reach eachother.
We officially start April 1st. It's sunday, gives us a week to get participants, you to set up your characters, and get your omok tables from me. Registration closes April 1st 3am PST that means the early morning of April 1st.
I'm going to be drawing names out of my authentic straw hat from one piece. Then on a white board write out the tournament table. Why? Because I feel arts and crafty.
For each round, however many, will have 72 hours to battle it out in a shadow realm tournament. if you can't do it, for whatever reason, just PM me and I'll make the adjustment and let your opponent know.
You start omoking on the first of April. However because the set up will not be available until late that night of the 1st, the 3 day limit does not start until April 2nd. You will have until April 5th to complete your match. After April 5th being the latest, the 6th is when the 3 day time limit will once again start. If you cannot make the time limit, PM me and your opponent. Based on your circumstances I may not disqualify you (like if we have to wait an extra day).
You will play 6 rounds essentially. 1 set of 2/3 will be played with one player starting out first. The 2nd round vice versa. A lot of people will probably disagree with this, but at my last attempts of hosting omok tournies, this was probably my number one complaint. Take an SS of every win so we dont have a "he said she said" scenario. I really doubt we'll have this problem though.
PRIZES
50k NX
25k NX
10k NX
Bonus
If I get enough "YES" I'll go on webcam and draw the names/write them down on some big white board. I'll be doing this at 10pm EST April 1st.
Format
Once you're done setting up your characters PM me the list of their IGN's, I'll organize it so that we can have kind of like
Username
IGN
As of right now just "Give a Pineapple" if you want to participate, and post that you are. That way if I mess up and miss your participation, then you can yell at me. And who doesn't want to abuse me with no retaliation!?
THANKS.

Re: Southperry Omok tournament!
2 things:
-Can't we have one of our knowledgeable programmers on the site make a simple program so the matches don't need to go through MapleStory? Though I guess setting up so the program can actually communicate through the internet would be a bit harder =P
-Wasn't the Omok game mathematically solved for all starting positions? i.e. there's a clearly superior strategy that guarantees winning.

It's actually pretty easy to do an ajax one. Except I don't know the rules of Omok, at all.
I barely remember it being a grid of varying sizes and a time limit, which would potentially have to be ignored or at least extended to play via web.

But there are different rule-sets, I believe the Maple version starts out with 4 pieces in it already and there's no rules of "three and three" or "four and four".

I'd gladly accept that but I'm not sure if maples rules are custom or actually official.

Checkers was, not Gomoku, which is omok from what I know at least. I've never experienced someone always winnning with the same strat.

It can be any length of board, typically it's 15x15 on maplestory I think. I'd have to see the board but I'm pretty sure it is. From people who play gomoku it's like a 25x25 board I think. The only rule (which I'm not sure is gomoku, or omok specific) is double 3. So you can't make a move that creates two 3's simaltaneously. Such as:
If I put the piece in the middle I automatically win, because you can't block two 3's at once. But it isn't limited too consecutive pieces, so moves like;
Where the x is where you cannot place it. Even though theres a space between them, because it creates two 3's it cannot be placed. If there was a spot to the right of the x you could put it there.
Squares are moves that are prohibitted because of the set up
Also putting more than 5 in a row does not result in a win, so if you put 6 in a row, it doesn't count as a win.
EDIT: Ugh let me draw it on paint or something. Sec

Computer search by L. Victor Allis has shown that on a 15×15 board, black wins with perfect play. This applies regardless of whether overlines are considered as wins, but it assumes that the rule of three and three is not used. It seems very likely that black wins on larger boards too. In any size of a board, freestyle gomoku is an m,n,k-game, and it is known that the second player does not win. With perfect play, either the first player wins or the result is a draw.
Generalized gomoku is PSPACE-complete.

Omok 100% in maplestory follows these exact rules.
Omok
Omok is played the same as Standard Gomoku; however, it is played on a 15×15 board and does not include the rule of four and four. The overlines and three and three rules still apply.

Re: Southperry Omok tournament!
This is a really nice idea. There's a lot of pro omokers out there. Though... I have a few questions:
Will the matches be in ONE world only? Because I don't know how hard it'll be to get an omok set on a world i'm not in D:
Will it be like... theres 20 players for example.. 2vs2 and then 10 players 2v2 etc etc.. I mean... as a tournament right?
Also if people don't want to do it on maple, here's this site:
It's called caro and it's kinda like omok, but gotta do 5-lines. I also have it on my phone and play it everyday haha. It's really just like omok, however, it would obviously feel better doing it in-game.

I'm aware of an OMOK website but I just feel like it loses the charm when it's just dots. I like the slime/mush pieces haha.
I'll be providing omok boards, I just have to find out how many contestants there would be.

Agreed, but you're lucky cus you're in scania :/ Most players I had to play were noobs, or a select group of maybe like 6? Over and over again. It's really hard because you slip up once with anyone under 2300 points and you're suddenly losing 70 points while gaining 5. I have I think 4k/1k atm on geminidawn his points average about 2400 cus I can't find anyone who has decent points lol

I'm in Windia now and haven't been in Scania since late 2008, so most of the people I played were noobs too. I only played with people in the old dojo, Leafre, and Henesys. There were always a bunch of good players in Henesys like OrangeKrayon. Whenever I lost due to a silly mistake or someone being an ass over a redo I'd lose like 70-100+ points because people only had about 2000 or lower. Especially when I'd put a bait bounty to play like "Get 5m if you win" if I was extremely bored, people would keep playing and playing until they got lucky with a mess up to take all my points.

Getting Lv.20 is like...30 minutes at most. If you don't have 30 minutes to spare, you probably won't have the time to spare for the tournament at all.

No cheating, pimento. We all know how much you need to feed your NX habit. All that......Mabinogi rebirthing....
Rebirthing is free enough not to need more and my account has premium service for months thanks to all the credit owed me from hackings and down time.

Re: Southperry Omok tournament!
I'm in. So hard to find people willing to play Omak in Zenith. I think the last time I had a match we were waiting for CHT timer.
I'll post an ign when I get around to making a character in Khania. Dunno when I can since my desktop suddenly stopped working today.
I'll need additional time for moves if I have to play on my laptop since it has 1minute lag spikes :f3: I can "play" maple on a toaster!

Re: Southperry Omok tournament!
Your original post still says "mules in every server" under "how it works," and also "list of their IGN's" under "format."

@KhainiWest what does "You will play 6 rounds essentially. 1 set of 2/3 will be played with one player starting out first." mean?

What if
Locked wins first 2 games out of 3. Then you set your board up and win 2 games out of 3. The case of a tie would be 2 wins on me and 2 wins on you. Who would go first in your scenario?

Then you'd pay another set of 6 until someone wins 4/6. Essentially you have to beat the first 2/3 and win the second 2/3.

There are better and more efficient ways of doing it. If the complaint is people want a fair shot at being first then you can impose different solutions.
1. Play the game normally. Usually the loser ends up going first anyway, it can't be that bad honestly. Make it out of 5.
2. Play the game one at a time. Player 1 sets up board and goes first for 1 game. Player 2 sets up board afterwards for 1 game. Player 1 then sets up board. This keeps going until you reach 3 wins out of 5.

The problem is that being first or second changes your chances of winning, so it would be unfair for the player who does less matches as first.

I know there are more efficient ways (my first idea was the first one you presented) but it's OMOK MAN WE WANT LOTS OF GAMES.

Re: Southperry Omok tournament!
You could play it (kind of) like Tennis.
Player 1 starts off. S/he starts for an entire set (Best out of 3, let's say). After the first set, Player 2 starts. Have to lead by 2 sets to win the match.
Though that could go on for a long time. I know there's an end point setup for Tennis in case it keeps rotating back and forth for the winner(therefore a stalemate), but I forget what that is.

Re: Southperry Omok tournament!
I have not play omok for such a long time, but count me in
Also to get this straight, each pair is playing 2 sets of games best 2 out of 3? so if one person gets 3 win, that person advances?

Okay so omok sh`it is harder to find than I thought. SO not every single one of you will get an omok table, but either you or your opponent will have one.
