Currently, we only have two tournament categories: Category:Regional tournaments and Category:National tournaments. However, these categories are rather misleading, as they are grouping together tournaments that differ significantly on how stacked they are. For example, Tri-state Showdown: Fall 2019 is grouped as a national alongside EVO 2019 despite the former having significantly less top and high-level players in attendance, and it's inaccurate to assume that these two tournaments were similarly stacked. To better represent the size of each tournaments, I'm proposing to split either both categories or just the national category, as the problems are most apparent in the latter. Here's how I propose they should be split:
- Regionals: Split into regionals and super regionals
- Nationals: Either split into nationals and majors, or into nationals, majors, and supermajors.
If anyone worries how we'd categorize these tournaments, we've historically used rankings such as the PGR and OrionRank to go off of, or we took a look at how many top and high-level players are in attendance. What size they are are also usually noted on the tournament page itself, so we don't need to look through all the older brackets. Cookies
