Since servers has been more or less filled with players the last weeks, lets see if we have enough participants for a new tournament.
DATE & TIME
25th of April - 06:30 PM (GMT +2)
Plan is to host the tournament in-between the Social Saturdays, so players still have the chance to participate in those events too. If your teammate is busy at a given time during the tournament, you can use a sub/ringer. This is acceptable as long as they have not played in the tournament up until that point (means you can also use subs/ringers in the upcoming rounds).
RULES
Known rules. Do not cheat. Try to show up on time and play fair. Super-simplified: Dont be an excretory opening.
Also refer to the official match rules set out by rockitude (
https://forums.digitalpaint.org/index.php?topic=28490.0).
Tournament specific rules
- Double Elimination. Winning team advances to next round. Losers have a chance to redeem themselves in Losers Bracket with the possibility advancing all the way to finals
- Disconnecting during rounds (i. e. to prevent caps) will count as a forfeit, which means 50 - 0. Reconnecting in between rounds to fix (lag) issues are allowed. If you feel like a team abuses this rule, write a message in the event-channel. Both teams need to provide demos for reviewing in such a case. Side note: Don't reconnect without a clear reason. I will try to set up some statistics at the end of this tournament.
- Tournament is single map double elimination. However, this rule can be changed. If this is the case, please also look at the MAPS section, mainly because if this should occur it will require the addition of new rules.
- Discord Account is required. Announcements and communication will happen there.
- Higher seeded duo (the duo who are closer to the top of the bracket) has to post SCREENSHOTS of each match.
- Fun tags and trashtalk are welcomed. However, refer here to the "super simplified" rule.
- Demos and/or Livestreams for the community are welcomed.
- FINAL ROUND will be BO3 with the classic rules. Again, refer here to the official match rules.
Changes are going to be added here and announced in the #spring_tourny server in discord.
If you are still not in the DP-Discord server, look at JMR's post and click on the given link there:

Players are to play on EU servers provided by Ic3y, with the exception of teams who have mutually agreed upon playing on another server. This is to allow NA players to play comfortably too.
MAPS
Maps that have dominated the competitive scene:
pbcup_pforest, pbcup_renoir, propaint1, wobluda_fix, airtime, duck_fix_b6, castle1, carpathian and daylight_b1.
Each team elims a map that they do not want to play from the list until there is one left. Team at the top of the bracket elim's first, team at the bottom gets to select team colour.
Feel free to name obvious maps that are a must-have for such tournaments.
SIGNUPS
Reply in this thread OR message me on discord. Last-minute signups are fine as long you can find a teammate. I also will create an open-group, so players can team up with other solos. Please provide the nicks of the actual players and possible substitutes.
