Title: Global Gamers 2nd Anniversary Tournament
Post by: ButtaKnife on October 19, 2008, 01:15:07 AM
Global Gamers will be hosting a DP2 tournament on Sunday, November 16th as part of the celebration of our 2nd anniversary.  We would like to know what kind of tournament you would like to see.  Since it's hard to field a team for a 4v4 match, we want to try something different this time.  Cast your vote soon!  This poll will be open for 1 week.  Also, if you have other suggestions for the tournament, let us know!  Thank you!

As amusing as it would be to make the team have to share one game, all 3 players will receive their own prize.  :)

Im just wondering, but is there a place for teams to sign up yet, or is that still being worked on?

Yes!  Go to http://tournaments.globalgamers.net and sign up if you haven't signed up there previously.  Teams from the Quake Expo tournament have had their players removed to allow the teams to re-form.  If you haven't signed up there before, you first need to register an account.  The accounts there are seperate from NickServ accounts right now.  Once registered (quick and easy - no email confirmation), you can Login and create or join a team.  Joining a team requires a Join Code that is specified when the team is created.

Only 3 players are allowed per team.  If a team captain needs to have a player removed from his/her team, if a team needs to be added to the tournament bracket, or if any player has other questions, please find me on IRC and ask.  I will also try to follow this forum thread to answer questions here.

I'm such a bad person, being late all the time.  More tournament details!

Map list: coi, piped, mixer (if needed), and the final map for the championship round will be...
A SURPRISE!  (Booo!  But, seriously, you'll love it.  We hope.)

The tournament will kick off at Noon Eastern on Sunday.  Be on IRC in #Home for announcements!

Edit: Almost forgot!  Server IPs will be available when the tournament begins.  The same config we've always used will again be used for the 3v3 format.  Direct any questions or complaints to me.  :)

If we hold more contests then perhaps we can have tournaments with the GG contest maps, but I think for the moment we will probably still supplement them with popular match maps.

The final map could be the winner of this year's contest :P

Hmm,thought there would only be 3 players allowed per team...

but actually i recognize that you can register more than three,looking at other clans profile?!

So are we allowed to register our whole clan too or why isn't that possibility disabled?
