How to propose a PrimeLevel

Short version

You can pick the template (and other tournament options) for a PrimeLevel tournament (typically one where you participate).

1. Get the template id of the template you want to use.
2. Open a command game: 43897617. Join the game and go to Chat.
3. Type in: !primelevel template=template_id

Longer instructions

These longer instructions are optional, it is fine if you just read and follow the short version above.

1. Read or skim the options below.
2. Decide on a template, and whether to use other options.
3. Open a command game: 43897617. Join the game and go to Chat. Do not worry, the game will not start when you join.
4. Type in: !primelevels template=template_id plus your other options (if you picked any)
5. (Optional) Wait up to 15 minutes for the system to notice the new command.
6. (Optional) Check the command log to see if the command was accepted. Maybe you get an error message there, in which case you should try again (with the command changed so you don't repeat the exact same error).
7. (Optional) Check that your proposal is listed here. Tournaments near the top of the list are more likely to be played soon.
8. Wait until your proposal gets picked and the tournament starts. join the first game to participate.

If you are unsure, you can also ask in the command game or the group.

Options

The template is required. The level option is recommended. The other options are optional, and default values will be picked instead.

• template=template_id: The template id of the template you want to use. (You can find the template id by creating a game, loading your template, and then looking at the "Link for sharing". The template id is the number at the end of the link.) Note that you can also use real-time templates, it will be converted into a multi-day game automatically. The boot time will be determined by the boot option anyways, and not by the template. Your template should not contain any coin fees or rewards. If you don't have any good ideas for a template, you can pick from this list:
  • SEAD: template=1070736
  • SE1W: 1070737
  • Strat1v1: 1070738
  • Guiroma: 1399928
  • French Brawl: 1399927
  • MME Commanders LD: 1070744
  • Multi-Attack MME LD: 1070746
• level: The level for which the proposal is supposed to be. Use level=all when it can be used for all levels (this is also the default). Otherwise, you should use a level for which you have a ticket for. The proposal will then be used on that level.
• bid: The amount of PrimePoints you want to bid. Higher amounts give you higher priority. Minimum and default are 0 PrimePoints. As the formula for proposal priority might change in the future, it is recommended to not bid too much.
• mode: The tournament mode (including parameter). Possible options:
  • "survival1" (=single elimination), "survival2" (=double elimination), "survival3" (=triple elimination), "survival4" (=quadruple elimination), The number basically determines the number of starting lives. Default is "survival2".
  • "chips1", "chips2", "chips3", "chips4", "chips5", "chips6", "chips7". The number determines the number of starting chips.
  • "streak2" or "streak3". You get eliminated after 2 or 3 losses in a row.
  • "multiko8", "multiko16", "multiko32", "multiko64". Fixed knockout brackets with 8, 16, 32, or 64 entries, but multiple entries per player. multiko64 needs at least 10 players.
  • "fastsurvival2", "fastsurvival3", "fastsurvival4". Like survival mode, but with simultaneous games.
  • "gslcup". A cup format with groups of 4 where the top 2 advance, and a final best-of-5 match.
  More information about the modes can be found in the about page. Default is mode=survival2. Note that for PrimeLevels the mode can sometimes be changed to something else, especially in lower levels.
• boot: The boot times in hours. This consist of 3 numbers separated by commas (no spaces). The first number is the normal boot (minimum is 16 hours). The second number is the banked time in hours (first and second number must be at least 72 hours in total) The third number is the time bank increment in hours. For a normal 3 day boot use boot=72,0,0. For a 1.5 day boot with 1.5 day bank time and 5 hours increment boot=36,36,5. Default is boot=24,72,0.
• join_period: the number of hours the system will wait for players to accept their game before it will count as declined. Default is the maximum of 48 hours and the boot time (without the banked time).
• size: The number of players in the tournament. Can be from 7 to 12. Default is 10. Note that for PrimeLevels the size can often be changed to something else.
