Hi Jussi!
I would like to come with an idea about a dsj3 marathon.
A tournament that can be played once a month or so and will work llike this; We play the normal WC with 32 hills 5 times after each other and the total score from 160 hills will win. This will take about 5-7 hours and it's a big mental challenge and also a challenge of keeping your skills right
Is this something for the future Jussi?

I can setup such a marathon tournament if there are enough players willing to participate. But it's not possible to set any special breaks to happen during the tournament, so the only way to take a little rest would be to skip some jumps.
In my opinion once a month would be too often for such a marathon tournament to take place... Or what do you other players think?
That's a great idea, I will definitely participate if I ever possible.
Late Saturday night would be an interesting option for the Marathon contest. There can be even tens of jumpers gaming online 2-4 hours after the weekly Sat tournament so I think the community is relatively well available at that time. The standard Sat night competition would be a nice warm-up before the hard five rounder... Alternatively, we could perhaps have the Marathon contest once a month (or less frequently) as a substitute for the standard weekly Saturday tournament.
Cheers,
Mika
There is no vasara like kumipäävasara - osta kumipää vasara!
I support the suggestion of marathon on saturday night:) Saturday night fever!
And also that it can replace the regular tournament on saturday once a month. So the time will be from 8pm to 1 am perhaps
Or I think it should be arranged as an early tournament on saturdays or sundays from 12 o'clock.
Maybe top 3 in the marathon can get a big Q in the nest regulair tournament as a price, so they don't have to qualify at all that tournament.?

***The tournament will be arranged on the first Friday of each month at 20.00 CE(S)T***
I have now set up a Marathon Tournament (with 128 hills) to be arranged on the first Saturday of each month at 21.30 CE(S)T.
Thus, the first Marathon Tournaments will take place on:
Saturday June 2nd 21.30 CE(S)T
Saturday July 7th 21.30 CE(S)T
Saturday August 4th 21.30 CE(S)T
I guess that we should still arrange the normal Saturday Tournaments each week as not all the players want to compete for 5 hours in the Marathon Tournament.
It's still possible to adjust the scheduling, so please write your comments here...

The only problem for me is the time, it will last untill 02.00-03.00, and that's to late for me I'm afraid... I can join for some hours I guess, but probably not all. Also, wouldn't it maybe be better with friday at 20.00 CET? Then it would last untill about 00.30-01.30, and it's not another tournament the same day...

Friday night could be nice as well. Does anybody second that?
Count me in!
