MCM

MCM is a series of Minecraft duel tournaments and events simulated online with User:Kris159's friends as the participants. Its major events include the flagship tournaments, the MCM Cup (finished in September 2016) and the the MCM Royale (planned before 2017's end), as well as the continuous Rated event. The participant sof MCM events include a large community of User:Kris159's friends. Smaller tournaments have already taken place (February Best Of, Fresh Seconds Tournament, Initiator Ranked, the Gatekeeper) as of February 2017, and further are planned before the Royale (Dominator Series, March Best Of).

MCM finds its roots in Minecraft matches that used to take place as a community event for the Tournytime group. Minecraft matches, which unlike MCM were not simulated, placed players in an enclosed naturally-generated Minecraft map, leaving them to collect resources and duel. Between 10 and 20 matches took place starting around 2012 and ending around 2014. Matches still take place every now and again as of 2016, but are Hunger Games-style. During the end times of the original Minecraft matches, a Minecraft duel tournament was arranged between 8 players which would see a simple 8-player knockout tournament. It did not go ahead, but the seeds were planted.

In 2016, a 19-player tournament simulation took place purely using excel spreadsheets and an equal-chance RNG. It was done and dusted within days, and Onyx came out the victor. Soon after, a second tournament took place with slightly more participants. This time however, skill and playstyle values were attributed to each player (skill based on performance in the Minecraft matches), and the winner of each duel was determined again by RNG, but influenced by those values. Wolf came out the victor of this tournament.

Then came the MCM Cup. Unlike the previous tournaments, this one used a custom-built web application to simulate Minecraft duels more accurately and duels were 15 real-time minutes rather than instantly-simulated "one kill one winner" duels. This system, with small changes and additions made as necessary, is still used as of the most recent tournaments and events. The previous tournaments were dubbed MCTTT 1 and MCTTT 2 (Minecraft Tournytime Tournament), and although the MCM Cup used a similar skill-and-playstyle attribution system and had its starting ranks based on both MCTTTs, for statistical and sanctioning purposes, MCTTT and MCM are considered separate.

Other events
Rated is a continuous event that allows players to duel outside of tournaments on a daily basis using an elo-like rating system to match participants in duels with players of similar skillsets.
