GG Tournament 2013

(Nemesis1415) #301

If you are going to sign-up a team. Please hurry. Sign ups end in exactly 3 hours and 41 minutes. 9 PM eastern time.

Then again 16 teams is a perfect number for a tournament… :wink:

I have a question. If eu team playing vs na team and it’s 2 : 2, how do we choose the server for 3rd map? Toss a coin?

(Graver) #303

admin, what about sniper reload bug?

(Dthy) #304

I’d say coin toss. One team chooses map other chooses server.

Also seems like this cup has attracted the attention of som old school guys :wink:

Ladies and gentlemen, the tournament is officially LIVE!!! Registration is closed [pending EDRAMA contacting us directly, don’t know if they dropped out at the last minute by accident or not], and the first round of brackets have been posted to http://ggtournament2013.tourney.cc/brackets/!

Some reminders as we get underway:

  1. Make sure everyone on your team connects to all tournament servers to verify that all downloads are completed. Remember, all players must be present on the map at the scheduled time; it doesn’t count if someone’s loading in or downloading, you’ve only got 1 hour from the time your match was scheduled to take place to have everyone sitting on GDF/Strogg.
    a. The official tournament servers are as follows:

i. TAW|Artists of the Battlefield|NA Hamster GG Tournament

ii. TAW|Artists of the Battlefield|EU Abundance GG Tournament

iii. PV ETQW ProMod Gaming Clan www.pv-gaming.com

iv. -/-Villa-/- Villekulla - GG Tournament

v. ad Awesome Dudes Pro

vi. ad Awesome Dudes Custom Maps

b. TV servers may not be up and running just yet, give us a while to get that detail ironed out.

  1. Teams have between the times brackets are posted until 23:59 GMT Wednesday to schedule a match with their opponents. The match time MUST be e-mailed to ggtournament2013@gmail.com so that we can ensure that an official is present at the time of the match and that shoutcasters know when to go live. If a match time isn’t e-mailed to us by 23:59 Wednesday, a match time will be scheduled for you by the admins to take place at 18:00 GMT Sunday.

  2. Please verify that your team’s profile on the website has been updated with appropriate contact information (Steam/in-game name or e-mail address preferred). Not everyone knows how to use IRC or plays on the same servers as their opponents (re: NA players on EU servers), so please provide a means of getting in touch with your team so that your matches can be scheduled.

  3. There will be no smurfing allowed during official matches. This is for the benefit of the shoutcasters, the viewers, and the match officials. We’re taking this seriously; you’re playing for prize money that has been donated by some very charitable people, so please be respectful to their wishes. We’re also playing by the honor system here by not enforcing GUIDs, so the team that shows up to play MUST be using the names registered to the official roster.

  4. The reload glitch is allowed.

  5. When e-mailing the official e-mail address about your scheduled match, you DO NOT have to select your maps, only tell us the time you’re playing. Please be mindful from here on out about who sees what. The tournament is live, and everyone is now playing against each other for the prize and the glory. The match officials (those who have access to the official e-mail) may be your opponent some time in the future. When you’re e-mailing us, or posting on the forums, try not to give away your team’s map choices or player lineups or anything that can be strategically used against you.

  6. Night Raid will be temporarily unavailable as a map choice during this first round because we have not had an opportunity to verify the version all the servers are running. We will try our best to have it ready for Round 2.

  7. We will continue to accept donations throughout the course of the tournament, for anyone feeling inclined to up the ante and raise the stakes. Just go to http://ggtournament2013.tourney.cc/pages/donations/ to help contribute! As of this posting, the prize pool includes 3 prize packages:
    a. $245.00 USD
    b. $155.00 USD
    c. Dirty Bomb Elite Packs for the entire team

  8. If there are any disputes over tournament rules at any time during a match, the match MUST BE PAUSED and the dispute must made known at that time. Do not continue the match and then complain that someone was breaking a rule. If a rule violation is not brought up at the time it occurs, it will be disregarded.

That’s all for now, start scheduling your matches and e-mailing us when they’ll take place so they can get officially shoutcasted!! We may have some surprises in store for you yet!!! :wink:

(Kordin) #316

@shoutcasters: Dont forget to record and upload your casts on twitch.tv (I think twitch.tv got some option for this?). So everyone can watch them, even if they missed an interesting live match.

(Kl3ppy) #317

oh great, biatch has NA only opponents :rolleyes:

(Dthy) #318

+1 to this.

I was watching some VOD’s on ettv yesterday (uber old school). I think [Masterclan) vs Turtle Power! will be interesting and a close match.

(Nemesis1415) #319

If it makes you feel any better Turtle Power is in the same situation? Shifty, I PMed you about our match.

Gvardman. You can still be an offici streamer haha. You were just streaming through your own account yesterday so I didn’t stop you is all. I’ll PM you the info you need.

(Ashog) #320

Ok, sweet that I got a chance to shoot Nemesis on sight so soon :slight_smile:

Neme: why is TAW server forcing to dl megas from ATW3 and Comm Link, while Villa server not? Strange. I had the megas alredi. TAW also forces dl of TAW artassets, whatever it is. I don’t need that. What is it?

Please also paste the server list to the first posts.
