Let the tourney begin!

Round 1

Bracket A: Team 5 (>TRR<) vs. Team 6 (|-210|)
Bracket B: Team 7 ([ u ]) vs. Team 8 (.xpN^)
Bracket C: Team 9 (Free Round) vs. Team 10 (.Z0n3>)
Bracket D: Team 11 (.cReat.) vs. Team 12 (#sPec#)

Round 2

Bracket E: Team 1 (.iNte.) vs. Winner of Team 5 (>TRR<) vs. Team 6 (|-210|)
Bracket F: Team 2 (>og<) vs. Winner of Team 7 ([ u ]) vs. Team 8 (.xpN^)
Bracket G: Team 3 (DR34M.) vs. Team 10 (.Z0n3>)
Bracket H: Team 4 (#Trio>) vs. Winner of Team 11 (.cReat.) and Team 12 (#sPec#)

If DR34M doesn't show up (sorry DR34M for my harshness, but I'm giving you a chance to enter), then sPecial will go to round 2 and play cReative.

It's double elimination. Every team will play at least 2 matches.

Yes but I believe the teams that go out early should get a fair match at the start while the 3 best are already in the second round.

Yes, when I organized 11 teams, the bracket auto-shuffled and gave me this.

So put it to 12, and one team called "Free Round"

A big thank you to Lazers for taking the lead in running this tournament. Thanks to JMR and Clipz for providing servers, as well as to everyone who participated.

We learnt quite a few things from running this cup which will hopefully help us improve the quality of future tournaments.

Pretty standard. Virtually no hickups, gj

#Trio>

So glad to see |-210| back like this, good job lazers and noturning.

Glad the tourney went well!
It was a bit unorganized in some areas but it came down to a winner, right?

1st Place: #Trio>
2nd Place: DR34M.
3rd Place: .iNte.

I have to say good job sPecial (#sPec#) for getting 4th place in this tournament, especially after the teams you played. And you only lost to DR34M. by 3, nice work!

Thanks omni!

Special thanks to:

JMR: for donating #sPec# servers, which where pretty much all the matches were played
Clipz: for donating #Prozak servers, and even though they weren't really used it was still kind, and for not giving up on entering DR34M even after I said the deadline was through.
omni: for holding the previous |-210| tournament (that thread inspired me to make this one)
thai: for being able to cope with my leaving during the semifinals and successfully dealing with the brackets for the last 2-3 games!
noturning: for doing an amazing job helping me in my errors in making this tournament, and organizing this tourney and much as he possibly could.
FusSioN: For making an IRC channel for |-210| after the previous one fell down.

Congratulations #Trio> (picky, luckie, prozajik, rockitude) for becoming champions in the 2013 New Years Cup (December 28-29). Happy New Year and I hope to see you guys next weekend!

Next time you run a tourney you should specify that first teams to join get to pick servers before teams sign up. Not saying the outcome would of been different. Most tourneys are all EU and none are NA. It is more fair all on EU but some one should host it on NA sometime. I'd love to see some of these teams play on NA. Especially lukii's team who think they are good but can't make it past the third round.

MyeRs · « **Reply #118 on:** December 28, 2013, 07:02:42 PM »

2nd place? l0l If I showed up would've easily been 1st, the real DR34M Team members only come first.

Funny, iNte doesn't even place top 3 when DR34M isn't using their real roster.

Don't run an NA tournament ever, please. Two reasons why: 1) There's no NA teams other than DR34M so it makes no sense - 2) DR34M's actual lineup already dominates every EU team whilst playing on EU servers, it's easy as is... don't give us another advantage. If anything, try to DDOS DR34M members when we're playing. Please, when our real lineup is playing, try to give us disadvantages so it's not so easy. Thanks.

Glad your tournament ran well, and good thing on making it 1 day. Multi-day tournaments don't work in this community.
