I want to start running Dirty Bomb cups.

For what it’s worth (since I’m not playing), the time sounds perfect to me. Do you mean Saturday (02/May/2015) though?

Oh yeah, sorry, Sunday is just drilled into my head lol… Fixed! Whistles nonchalantly.

Your times seem okay, but I’d even put it forward an hour (depending on the number of sign ups. 6PM BST is still quite early for a lot of Europeans that may be at work on Saturday’s and such; so you would probably be best to do it at like mid afternoon for the Europeans which would be too early for the NA participants, also 8PM CEST is usually a good winner, but that’s just my thoughts

Potential bug waiting to happen, If you turn friendly fire on have you thought about what you would do about medics? Since medics have defibs but defibs are considered a weapon they would in theory just finish your teammate, another side to this is if multiple healers are on a team sometimes healers go after the same target and just so slightly miss and you hit the other medic, which would injure/kill them. -DaeMord

Huh, yeah, I can see 8 CEST working well. I think what I’ll do is try to get registration running ASAP and poll teams on a time. But 7/8 CEST seems best, leaning towards 8 CEST at this point.

Can’t really comment here, as again, I didn’t have time to play the game with FF turned on, but there have been cups in the past where it has worked. I supposed it’s one of those coordination/strategy things that give it an extra edge. I haven’t heard anyone complain about it being an issue.

Would be fun to see two medics run to heal someone and they both kill each other

Poll: What is a good time on Saturday for you to play cups on?
http://strawpoll.me/4200907

I figured this was the best way to get a good time.

Dirty Cups will be played on Saturday, the first one will be 02/05/2015 at the poll determined time. This will be a test cup with Friendly Fire on and no rules.

The next one will be 09/05/2015. This will be a second test cup with Friendly Fire on and rules implemented (such as one merc rule).

After that we’ll evaluate and go from there on how to do the series.

Website is on it’s way thanks to Sagan on Roids! Also thanks to JB120hz for our current logo!

I’m personally leaning towards 11:00 PST / 14:00 EST / 19:00 BST / 20:00 CET, but obviously it’s up to you guys to decide!
