Why do some tournaments have the name of a inactive user in them?

Question

Example: MrKijani's Avatar tournament
Le Scraf's mini fight

Both of these users are inactive here. Are the tournaments named after them to honor them? Or something else?

I believe that they pitched the idea a long time ago, and it's named after them because, well they made it.

Not a full answer, but https://pokemondb.net/pokebase/meta/13419 If you click the link fast enough, then you'll see that Le Scraf's suggestion for the Mini Fight is near the top of the thread. I'm going to hide that answer in a few days.

Answer 1

Those tournaments were created by those people. Some tournaments don't get played until a long time after they're made, as is shown with your two examples.

Hope I helped!
