Wintermute, use arrows so I know which way. So unhelpful.

Kalis, How do I sign up?

Sorry about that. It went:

<--+-->

.....v

that way. :P

Perhaps more helpfully: It's already started, so you can't sign up for this one. Watch the forums for the next one.

Whenever this current 2v2 tournament ends (which may be a long time, at the rate it's been going), I'll hold another 1v1 tournament.

Target roster size will be 32 players, and I'm pretty sure we can fill it.
I will not tell you my corner / where threads don't get locked because of mostly no reason /
because I don't want your hostile disease / to spread all over the world.
I prefer that corner to remain hidden /
without your noses.

I'm in. Make a roster? only 30 players to go :) "F8_Binds_n3t" Maybe I can get past the first round and not face such people as solition and zero1. Feel the wrath of "Greg the Gregarious" !!! :P

3 vs 3

Post by Anul »

Does anyone want also to plan a 3 vs 3 tournament?

There are many interesting maps for that...

This is just an idea...

reflecting a mind empty as the open sky -
drawn by its beauty,
I lose myself

I'll make a roster list sometime in the near future. Be warned though that I'll be strict with the rules and will drop DQs on players unable to play their matches at or by the given times.

Experience has taught me that without such measures, tournaments tend to take a minimum of 3 decades to complete.

So, just be aware of that. It's the only way to keep those barbarians in line. :P

sounds good Doc Paterson! :D

Anul:
personally, I think the problem with any match longer than a 2v2 is that the matches would literally take forever.
Even with 2v2 matches, a single match can take a good 2-3 hours. I can't imagine how long a 3v3 would take...

1 match= win - continue, lose- screwed. Hexcake would be the favored map there.
