[QUOTE="Thornir Alekeg, post: 3557999, member: 15651"] I recall being in one game at a con many years ago where there were judges who observed and scored the players. The top scoring players were invited to join the next game and so on until there was a final table. I don't recall what the prizes were for the winners, if any, and after not being selected after the first game, I didn't stick around to observe (took off and found an ad hoc chance to playtest a game, which was a lot more fun and I got a copy to take home). Personally I didn't like tournament play. I found the idea of "performing" to aribtrarily score points with some judge ruined my fun. That said, I have played in a game where the adventure was originally played as a tournament game and the DM ran it the same way, giving out a few small trinkets at the end for the "winning" player, which happened to be me for my creative solutions to several challenges.
