Twig Posted August 10, 2016 Posted August 10, 2016 Sadly I've seen this post today and not earlier - Good fight for all participating teams. Still shoudnt this post be in the tavern and not in the national news?
Snoopy Posted August 10, 2016 Posted August 10, 2016 D'oh! I am out of town the next two weeks But yeah waiting for the code is probably better.
Prater Posted August 10, 2016 Posted August 10, 2016 Unless anyone is against it, that is very much what i want to do, avoids some complications. It does avoid complications. Though, it will probably be released when I am out.
Molon_Labe13966 Posted August 10, 2016 Author Posted August 10, 2016 Might be abit late, but this punishes teams which dont utilise the full BR, wouldnt it be better to count the BR destroyed? i.e. 3x Renos vs 2x BP 1x Surprise The Renos manage to sink the Surprise but still loose due to BR 330 vs 360 this one is outdated. Olav is the one running the show now because I'm too busy to continue doing this. IDK what system he has up right now, so check with him.
Kair Posted August 10, 2016 Posted August 10, 2016 We have a "final" meeting tonight between all the Judges.Olav will most likely make an announcement concerning most "complicated" questions - and the final decision as to the tournament starting date - as soon as we're done !So stay tuned !
Prater Posted August 10, 2016 Posted August 10, 2016 Do realize that changing the date can make it so some teams can't participate anymore.
Roelandus Posted August 10, 2016 Posted August 10, 2016 It might be a shame that some teams can't participate if we wait, but on the BIG plus side everything is way easier and better to do which benefits everybody.
Prater Posted August 10, 2016 Posted August 10, 2016 If the date is going to change, I think it should be determined on vote of participants instead of a select few making the decision.
OJKK Posted August 10, 2016 Posted August 10, 2016 Team Danve We vote for a postponement if it will make a better event. Kiilerich
LordOfDope Posted August 10, 2016 Posted August 10, 2016 I agree with Prater. I think we should have a vote under the participants and not only a few judges that decide if we delay the tournament.
Guybrush_Twopwood Posted August 10, 2016 Posted August 10, 2016 Same question, is it too late to enter now it may be delayed? If not, and depending on the new date, I might be able to enter.
OlavDeng2 Posted August 10, 2016 Posted August 10, 2016 I hope that everyone understands as this will make organization easier for both the judges and the team members, the tournument will be delayed untill the 24th/25th (depending on when the patch hits + 1 week to allow hotfixes and make sure the tournument room works properly), im sorry if this is an inconvinience for some teams however we cant please everyone and it will save everyone tons of head aches by using the tournument rooms, as a result registration is also now open again. The registration is open untill we hit 32 teams, at the moment there are 7 slots open. edit: PS i reccomend every team finds a reserve 8
Prater Posted August 10, 2016 Posted August 10, 2016 Why not delay it until after Labor Day (US), when a lot of people's vacation season is over? TDA has a lot of people out between this week and the end of August. I assume a lot of Americans are in the same boat, and I hear that the Spanish and French are currently in vacation season and get back a month from now? It's like, a day before the Olympics, and Rio decides to move it back 2 weeks. And also, has anyone tried using small battles recently? I have, and trying to get 2 groups in there alone is almost impossible. I hope we will be able to see who is on which side before the battle starts.
Guybrush_Twopwood Posted August 10, 2016 Posted August 10, 2016 Yeah, it seems we're going to make an other FRL team. Guybrush Twopwood Pepin le Bref Edward Theach (still waiting for confirmation, but we should have a 3rd)
Snoopy Posted August 10, 2016 Posted August 10, 2016 Wouldn't it also be sensible to have the tournament on a weekend.. much easier to schedule people from the far ends of the globe into one match that way? 4
Quarios Posted August 10, 2016 Posted August 10, 2016 Wouldn't it also be sensible to have the tournament on a weekend.. much easier to schedule people from the far ends of the globe into one match that way? I don't expect this top be over on a weekend, Group Stage alone means 3 Matches lasting about 1.5-2h(with queueing, ppl coming late, restarts etc.) for each team. If you continue to the finals add another 4 Matches on Top of that. Not considering delays through different TZs between the teams. I'd suggest do the Group phase at one weekend and the KO phase on another one. Or over a week 1 Match each evening. 1
Kair Posted August 11, 2016 Posted August 11, 2016 Some matches will most likely be played the week end, some will be played weekdays. It will all depend on each team's availability.
Crayon Posted August 11, 2016 Posted August 11, 2016 I would like to see the tournament take place tomorrow anyways. Even if just to see what could make the setup (in terms of logistics) easier. Not to mention the valuable feedback. 1
Pelennor Posted August 11, 2016 Posted August 11, 2016 Hi, I understand your reasons and agree to postpone this tournament. Nevertheless, considering new date, I m sure you will understand we have to adjust our team composition, due to players availability: [uGLY] [EDR] Jeanne de Belleville [GROGS] Dugay Trouin [uGLY] Pelennor [OGCN] Sacrebleu (as reserve) Thanks and see you soon.
Atreides Posted August 12, 2016 Posted August 12, 2016 Would love to get in on this, didn't bother before because it fell on days I worked. A 3v3 sounds like a lot of fun. I will see if I can rally some AUS guys. Important thing, what times are we talking for the matches?
Hethwill, the Red Duke Posted August 12, 2016 Posted August 12, 2016 Setup between both teams and a judge ( or two ). Streamers will tag along if they can. Also, where's the Spanish teams !?!?!?!?
Eneil le Sublime Posted August 12, 2016 Posted August 12, 2016 (edited) Is it possible to have a team of EDR (France) or its too late ? we have players returning from holidays ! [ EDR ] - Kierrip de Dadass (EDR) - Eneil le Sublime (EDR) - to be confirmed 1 Reserve : to be confirmed Edited August 12, 2016 by Eneil le Sublime
Llewellyn Jones RN Posted August 12, 2016 Posted August 12, 2016 I Wouldn't it also be sensible to have the tournament on a weekend.. much easier to schedule people from the far ends of the globe into one match that way?expect this to last over several days at least I hope so or once again I will miss out seeing as the date change will see me unable to play until the Saturday after we start.
