    Is there anything that can be done to make the team competition fairer, or at least give it some point? In much the same way as Sky run their team comps on colours, and a random draw? We have 3 teams with twice the entrants of the others, and some teams with 1 or 2 players playing each week. Teams limited to 5 or 6 players per team, Top 3 only to count would make the team competition much more viable. We could have 20 teams per week, or 10 teams (depending upon numbers). You stay in a team for a full month cycle, and not playing is letting your side down (maybe have a substitute system) I know people enjoy their current teams, but the team competition of DTD is, frankly, a farce. If people really want to stay in current teams, then maybe split your teams in to A B C D E etc - can rank your players on previous performance and have a promotion / relegation system within the teams for a bit of extra light-hearted rivalry. If I am  lone voice, then tell me so, and I will plod on.

    The thing is, Dave. originally the teams were all small and similar in size. If you think it's fair to have 1 team with 20 entrants, and one team with one entrant, then we're never going to reach a  solution.

    The team competition no longer works. If you want to make it fair, and a true team competition, then teams have to be of equal size (as much as possible). You don't see the Tour de France with 100 riders from 1 team and 3 or 4 from another. There's a reason for that. If you just want THS, TPT or Hit Jams to win it every time, then your scheme works wonderfully. Divide the big teams into workable sizes each month, and the team competition might become meaningful. As it is, it's a guaranteed freeroll for the big teams. Have fun with that!

    Your argument that this week's team comp was won by a solo player is actually an argument against the status quo. How can a single person win a team competition merely by winning the overall? That's madeness. Each week someone wins the overall. If, by chance, the reamaining places are divided up between the other teams right, that individual can win the team event? I have never heard anything so ludicrous.

    Just because something has worked in the past, does not mean it will continue to do so.

    P.S. Your last sentence does you no credit. If it wourked just fine, ta. I wouldn't be making these observations.

    Just asking for open debate. If I am in the huge monority, I will gladly accept that.

    OK. Debate over. Everyone who wants to have a say has spoken, I am in a minority of 1.

    I will continue to play, and as a member of TKP. I have played practically every week for the last 2½ years, with a 6 month self-exclusion from poker when I was having personal problems last year.

    As an aside, if anyone does want to offer opinions on the current team part of DTD, I assume Dave will allow you to reply on this thread. I see it will do no good, but a little free speech never hurt.

    Sorry but i feel that using the word 'farce' is being disrespectful to the effort and organisation that people put in to, not only putting on the DTD but, promoting players to play in them. THS have split their team, however, i can say that a lot is done to promote a good team 'atmosphere'. Surely its a matter of other teams getting more members and promoting good poker rather than diluting it with teams of five. A team of one won it this week though i'm sure that team has more members and could have provided more on the night. Lets not decry the effort made by individuals to represent their teams and promote playing. Lets raise the participation rather than dilute it. DTD has introduced prizes for individual perforfomances over the week and month. Its not for the organisers to sort out and calling it a farce is wrong imo. Maybe starting your own one may show you the difficulties involved. Good luck sir!

    I firmly beleive this is a fanastic tournment were everyon is involved, i think that if any alteration where need to  teams it would be very unfair on all the hard work the team captains have made to build there team up, and if you in a team with small numbers no harm in doing a massive recruitment driver putting posts out there as many players play the dtd that are not involved in any teams at the moment its just a case of finding them and chatting to them in chat window or be message.

    I for one love the DTD mondays i always play when i am not working on monday nights, first class competition and run very well indeed.
    well played to all involved again another great sucess

    So basically, if you have attracted (lets not kid ourselves - "said yes to") more members, you deserve an advantage, and to hell with fairness?

    Look, I am not a moaner, and this discussion is taking place elsewhere in a considered manner. 

    DTD is an individual event. I love it. I play it whenever I can. The team aspect adds a little fun, but when one team has 20 regulalr runners and another team has one runner, it obviously isn't functioning as a team event. When a single runner can win the team event, it becomes plain wrong.

    I was just suggesting alternatives to the team side of the event to add fairness. 

    The problem is historical, and probably can't be resolved. Back in the day, a limit should have been put on number of people in each team. After "X" members, you form / join a new team. IIf nevessary that team could be Hit Squad 2. TKP2 etc.
    However, we can't uninvent the wheel, so we have what we have and have to try and make the best of it.

    As an aside, I appreciate the hard work that goes into the event each week. I really do.

    Hi Eyman.
    Firstly......It's great to see you getting involved and making suggestions with a view to improve things, so thank you for your input.

    I am a little tied up, but would be happy to discuss this in greater length and hopefully also get some possitive input from other players too.

    If you can give me a little more time to respond a little later, then hopefully we can open up a positive discussion for all.

    Thanks

    Yes, THS and TPT have had a more open recruitment policy, and have built there teams this way (incidentally this is no longer true of THS as we have realised the need to control numbers a little).  To suggest that these teams success has come purely through strength of number is frankly a little insulting.  I can only speak for HitSquad but I'm sure the same is true of TPT, but there has been an awful lot of work put in by a lot of people to grow the team and to improve our players.  This is clearly evident on our results outside of DTD and indeed outside of Sky Poker. 

    Eyeman, I accept you have valid concerns over the structure of the team element of the DTD competition but to blame this on other peoples pro activity and hard work is just wrong in my opinion.  There is literally nothing stopping any other team doing exactly what THS and TPT have done if they choose to.

    Graham I see your point about team balance but maybe if other teams put in the same effort as TPT and Hitsquad do then maybe we would have a more balanced competition. Yes we do get some players just making one post saying can I join your team and we never hear of them again but the majority of our recruits come from playing other TPT members at the tables. I have had many players asking me what TPT is and what are the advantages of joining a team (not just TPT I mean any team). Final tables especially surprise some opponents when they see the TPT rail and wonder whats going on. That is the major way that we get recruits to the team. We have seen our numbers swell rapidly over the last 6 months but that is the nature of the beast as our numbers increase then so does the publicity for the team.
     Bear in mind also that although our member list now stands at 107 by my reckoning at least 40 of those are not currently active on Sky Poker. With regards to the DTD we do not recruit solely for DTD players although that is welcome and considering the size of the team our DTD turnout is quite modest. It is only recently that we have broken the 20 barrier and this week we were down to 15. Surely it wouldn't take too much effort for some of the other teams to catch up if they want to, and I can tell you  that is not the case with all teams.

    I didn't really want to wade in and post an opinion on this, because I usually keep my mouth shut ;)

    ...but I'm on my lunch break, so figured I'd chuck in my thoughts.

    Yes, it would make perfect sense for all teams to have the same number of participants. Eleven players on a football team; five players on a basketball team; fifteen players in a rugby squad. You don't have an imbalance there because, well... as you have alluded to - correctly, to some degree - it just isn't fair, is it?

    And if this was a serious contest, I would agree. One hundred percent. Each team would be capped at (for instance) thirty members; rules would be set; penalties would be implemented for missing games; etc, etc.

    But - for me at least - DTD, and more broadly, the function of each team, has never been about that. I'm a relatively new member of The HitSquad. Did I join because I thought they were the best team on Sky, with the biggest clout? No (sorry Dave!). Did I join because I thought they could help advance my game further than any other? No again. I joined because there was a core group of guys and girls that seemed to enjoy their games, and I thought it would be good to get to know a few of these people a little better. Forum friendship, if you like. 

    It would be relatively simple to implement a more rigid form of team-based competition, but the problem you will have is that - and somebody correct me if I'm speaking out of turn here - most forum regulars on Sky would rather a relaxed, no-strings, form of contest than a regimented league/ladder format, as you have alluded to. There are plenty of tournaments on every evening that takes care of serious competition.

    This is just a bit of fun on the side, and we all like some of that ;)

Forum friendship, if you like.  It would be relatively simple to implement a more rigid form of team-based competition, but the problem you will have is that - and somebody correct me if I'm speaking out of turn here - most forum regulars on Sky would rather a relaxed, no-strings, form of contest than a regimented league/ladder format, as you have alluded to. There are plenty of tournaments on every evening that takes care of serious competition. This is just a bit of fun on the side, and we all like some of that ;)

    In Response to Re: FORUM DTD Monday 27th Jan. 2014 - Winner was EVILPINGU (DIA) who had a score of 13 pts (made 1x FT) & Wins Entry to Mondays £33 BH GL in that : Excellent, well-reasoned post. I think I (and everyone) have come to the conclusion that, as you say, the team competition aspect is a bit of fun, and shouldn't be taken seriously.
