Is there such a function in Vp3? I was told there was. Has it been tried before and it failed? What was the problem? I'm not suggesting every tourney needs handicapping, but I would think more players would participate in tournaments if they had a legit shot at being competitive. It would create action and offer a bit of an unknown into the equation - an exciting X factor.
Vp3 is a small community but I see a lot of players on the sidelines when a tournament comes along. I can only imagine they think, "Why bother?". I personally do not enjoy slaughtering a weaker player. Handicapping not only makes a weaker player more competitive, but it would also help improve my game.
Again, I'm fairly new here, and not well versed in the long and jagged history of Vp3. It's just a thought until the glorious coming of Vp4; which I understand will make use of a handicapping function.
Cordially,
John
