To have preset times so everyone knows when you have to be available in the day we have decided to limit the number of teams to 10.

Teams

• Captains Pick will be used to pick teams. Remember if you are interested in being a captain, write in your signup post that you are interested.
• Teams are comprised of 6 team members for which you can cycle people in and out. No sub system, meaning if more than one person doesn't show up you have to play with what you have.
• Teams will be picked on Saturday, July 25th. All captains that have been notified must be on sG Teamspeak by 7 PM EST to pick their teams.

Settings
This will be a traditional 5v5 Counter-strike tournament using the same rules that other leagues do.

• Side change after 15 rounds
• In case of a tie report to a Tournament Official who can put it into Overtime. (See below for more details)
• Matches will be best out of 1 or 3 maps depending on match. (See bracket for more details **subject to change based on team numbers**)
• Maps will be chosen in an elimination format. The first team to eliminate a map from the pool will be randomly chosen. The last remaining map will be played first, second to last second, and third to last third in a best out of three. In a best out of one the last map remaining will be played.
• During a tiebreaker teams stay on their previous ending teams.
• Each team is required to screenshot the final scoreboard after the match ends
• The winning team will be required to post the final screenshots of all the maps to prove their victory (In the appropriate forum)
• Teams are required to be on time to their scheduled match. Teams will be allowed to have 15 minutes from the schedule time before they will be forced to forfeit in case of an absent player/s
• It is the team's responsibility to make sure their fellow members show up to the posted times.
• Remember you have 6 players who can all play on your team throughout the tournament. If one person doesn't show up cycle in your other teammate.

Brackets

• This tournament will be using a double elimination bracket.

• If a team in the upper bracket loses a match they are then moved down into the lower bracket.
• If a team loses in the lower bracket after the placement match they are out of the tournament.
• A graphic will be put up for display before the tournament to better help teams visualize who they are playing and how to get to the finals.
• The finals will be the winners of the Upper Bracket versus the Lower bracket.

Can you guys give more of an advanced notice of tournaments? A month or something so we can plan for it

Too late now 

[Dylan 558]

Too late now

atleast for the next tourney it would be nice.

[Fugner 1019]

atleast for the next tourney it would be nice.

It was hard enough to get this in as is, but we'll try to remember that next time.

[Ordinarygamer96 785]

Why don't we just have a system where it's something like 3rd weekend of july, 3rd weekend of october, third weekend of January, and third weekend of April we always do a tourney(it dosent always have to be third weekend but you see what I mean) it would make it way easier for people, let staff prep long ahead of time, and just allow for more tourneys and make it a regular thing to look forward to

[driz 2626]

any super good groups that will carry me for a win?

This.

I mean we have 12 months in the year, so 4 tournaments, each at 3 month intervals, or vice versa. There doesn't always have to be big prizes, it's all for the fun and bragging rights.

Good luck to everyone and have fun.

For Pacific players, the tournament starts at 3pm for them which seems a little unreasonable on a Friday. I think it should probably be bumped up a little bit (I'm CST fyi).

 

Wouldn't it be easier to do most of the tournament during the day on Saturday and Sunday (rather than in the evening)?

 

 

Would it be possible to have the servers up and running after (or even before) captains are picked so we can 10man/practice in them and see how they perform?

 

 

Again: Willing to assist in anyway possible.

All the servers are up now. I will release ips later today. As far as times are concerned, Puerto and I might make some changes once team picks are done. Not much we can do until then.

We should test the overtime script -- I think we had an issue with that last time.
