A lot of this will be the same as the last tournament, but with a few updates to hopefully help it run better.
Tournament!
A lot of this will be the same as the last tournament, but with a few updates to hopefully help it run better.
When: This is going to take place the week of August 11th to 16th. If you are not available during the evenings that week, or in the middle of the day on Saturday then do not sign up. This schedule is concrete.
Rules (these will be strictly enforced):
- 9 People per team
- Class limits of 1 per class.
- Crits will be turned off
- Respawn timers will be normal
- If someone doesn't show up you can bring in someone who:
a) is not in the tournament on any team
b) is in the tournament in the other division
- You can have up to 2 people brought in if you are missing players. After that you have to play short. (eg. only 6 people on your team show up, you can bring in 2 extras for a total of 8).
- We'll wait 15 minutes until after the scheduled time. Whatever your team composition is by then is what you play with.
- If you lose a player during the match because of connection problems, they are allowed to return, but the match will continue unless we are between rounds. If someone has to leave in the middle of a match, you will play down a player.
- No rescheduling of matches. This will all take place over the course of a week. If you can't play during that week, don't sign up. If something comes up let your team captain know as soon as possible so he can look for an alternate.
- Team captains will come to an agreement on what maps they will play during their match.
- Both Medics and Pyros can use their alternate weapons
Maps:
I'm not including Dustbowl and Goldrush because they take forever to play and if we're holding both division matches in one night we need to keep this short.
GravelPit
Both teams will attack and defend once. There is no time limit for this map.
* The stopwatch format will be used to score this map. Each round, both teams will have the opportunity to attack and defend. If both teams are able to successfully capture all the points, the round will be given to the team who does so in the least amount of time. Teams should take a screenshot of the time remaining on the clock at the time of the last capture. The attacking team with the most time left on the clock at the end of the round wins.
Well (CP), Granary, Badlands, Fastlane
First team to 4 points wins the match or highest score after 60 minutes.
In the event of a tie when the time expires they will play one more match to determine the winner. If both teams fail to win at attacking on gravelpit they will both attack and defend again until there is a clear winner.
Vent Information:
The PA Vent server info is:
address: 64.34.250.134
port: 3803
password (if needed): wang
Connect then scroll down until you see Game On: Source. There are subsections for the RED and BLU Teams for TF2.
See
This thread for more information about where to get Vent and how to set it up.
SourceTV:
So I've talked to Job and he said we can set up SourceTV. It tends to lag sometimes, but we'll give it a try and see how it works.
You can connect one of two ways. First, use the SourceTV tab in the Find Servers menu in-game. You'll have to scroll through them all to find the right one. The other way is to connect directly to it through the console.
Bring up the console and type "connect 66.55.142.242:27020 wang" without quotations. You'll be able to watch the match from there, just like in spectator mode.
I don't think you can voicechat in SourceTV so I suggest using vent if you all want to sit around and make fun of the people playing. We'll probably have a channel just for spectators.
Match Schedule:
We're going with a round-robin divisions method. East will have 3 teams and West will have 3 teams.
Fightin' Cocks vs. The L4D Beta - Monday (11th) 7:30pm Eastern
THE WRASTLIN' ROOSEVELTS vs. POOP - Monday (11th) 7:30pm Pacific
The L4D Beta vs. Rotting Corps - Tuesday (12th) 7:30pm Eastern
POOP vs. W3NG - Tuesday (12th) 7:30pm Pacific
Fightin' Cocks vs. Rotting Corps - Wednesday (13th) 7:30pm Eastern
THE WRASTLIN' ROOSEVELTS vs. W3NG - Wednesday (13th) 7:30pm Pacific
Each match will consist of 2 maps, so by the end of the matches on Wednesday a team can have a maximum of 4 points.
In the event of a tie, the two teams will play dustbowl. Winner of that goes onto the finals.
In the event of a three way tie, two teams will play dustbowl, and the third will play the winner on goldrush. A random number generator will choose which team doesn't have to play dustbowl.
Eastern tiebreaker will take place on Thursday, 7:30pm Eastern.
Western tiebreaker will take place on Friday, 7:30pm Pacific.
Final round takes place on Saturday, 1pm, eastern.
TEAMS
Fightin' Cocks
The L4D Beta
Rotting Corps
THE WRASTLIN' ROOSEVELTS
Pioneers of Octagon Pants (POOP)
W3NG
Scores:
East division!
Fightin' Cocks: 2
The L4D Beta: 2
Rotting Corps: 2
West division!
WR: 0
PoOP: 4
W3NG: 0
It's a three way tie in the east, so this is what's going to happen. I'm going to use random.org to choose a number between 1 and 3. The number chosen will play the winner of dustbowl in goldrush.
And the magic number is........3.
So at 7:30pm eastern today (Thursday) the 67Fightin' Cocks will play The L4D Beta on Dustbowl. Each team will get to attack and get to defend once, just like we've been doing on Gravelpit. The winner will immediately play Rotting Corps on Goldrush. Each gets to attack once and defend once. I expect Dustbowl to last approximately an hour (although there's no time limit so no guarantees) so RC you guys need to be ready about 8:30pm eastern to play for the final eastern match. The winner of this will go on to play PoOP in the finals on Saturday.

Yes, if I play in the tourney, I will play spy, but I make no promises.

Soldier, Pyro, Heavy, Scout, Spy
West
Haha. Flippy, Marty and Eeedcarb are the only snipers who are good enough to play in a 9v9 with NERDS SPECIFICALLY going for them. Also, fuck spies.
EDIT: 1 of each class? What the donkey dick Asiina? That's only going to end in sadness and hardship.

East
I'm very central, so I chose randomly.
Well maybe if you didn't hate Europeans I could have played as a spy in this tournament.
Since you know everyone is doing it.
Deal with it.
It's not SERIOUS BUSINESS like the last tournament so I think it will make for some hilarious times.
9 Players. 1 Medic. ARE YOU SAYING THAT IS WHAT YOU WANT?
Thats not that bad...?
1 Medic, 12 players is bad
hella class limits n shit, srs bus n shit
rite duld
Don't cross the streams!
sht yah man
im ttly consederin pulin out.
One question. Will someone be recording the matches at all?
Spy, Heavy, Soldier
East
I'm sure there will be demos recorded, and we'll see if we can get SourceTV up and running again. I have to talk to some of the server owners.
I'll be able to reserve for people, (keep me in mind)
Angry is a good sniper; Klyka, Jonnybot are good. M4V1S is really good. Jesuits and Antipop are solid too.
edit: and of course Asiina is the best. Will you be playing miss?
WEST SIDE BIATCHES
I'm totally gonna be on someone's team, and suck that shit, straight, up.
Flippy's got my back.
