Afterdawn tournament thread - discussion thread

also what about times as i believe noon in gmt is still a workable time for whole of US(correct me if im wrong) but then people may have unavoidable commitments as in the WHOLE uk/europe based community at work/school etc?

if it were 1v1 would we have a league? knockout tournie?

 

I like that idea aswell but I was planning to orgainize it so that everyone can play like a 4 team tourney if the numbers allow it, but this idea seems like it would be much simpler. How should I word the explanation for it because I can't think of a way to put it.

 

I dont think it will work.
If we do have a subs list, and while its easy to contact people through AD here, are people going to sit and wait just incase someone drops out?
What if the subs themselves have an errand to run, or get caught up in somthing else?
Am sure you all know what am trying to say, i just cant see it happening...

 

Very good point

 

this is how it would work

the tourney leader and sub get online 10 minutes before scheduled time.

the first invite from the leader should go to the sub. if a invite has not been given to the sub by schedule start time then the sub is the leader.

thats 10 minutes, more than enough for a tourney leader to get online.

also, the leader cannot begin to send invite until the start time.

all game show whos online so it shouldnt be a problem for the sub to see if the leader is online anywayws.

I agree, start off with Warhawk..again...

 

We started off with COD4.

 

You guys on here need friends in the real world...

 

.... We Need Friends In The Real World??? Listen I do have friends and im sure everyone here does to. I play video games after im done with my work and i may only get one hour of game play. so its not like everyone here just plays video games all day

 

Rather hypocritical, isn't the whole point of the internet to converse with other people and share ideas? So if your going to shoot off about us please get off the internet before you do, so next time you wont make your self seem stupid.

Besides that this IS the real world, if we were on WoW or some other MMORPG and pretending to have a family then you would be correct; but these are FORUMS not some role playing game/site/whatever. So next time you and your little friends decide to get a chuckle out of shooting off at least do it in the right place.

 

@canuckerz

CAN WE PLEASE START THIS NOW!!! I get tired of having to go back and dig this thing up. You asked me to get rid of my thread over a month ago b/c you wanted to handle this but it keeps getting put off. If you're not going to start it up I would like to go ahead and do it. We've been waiting a while...

 

I've been waiting for Oner but idk where the heck he is these days, hes only on once a week or less, I'll start putting together the tourney thread tomorrow morning as it looks like hes not gonna be back on here for a while to come and I'm beat right now.

 

Just created the tourney thread, and I have one last question that I had forgot to ask, would you rather have the tournaments on Saturday or Sunday? I realize some or many of you are religious but Saturday may be a busy day for alot of you as well.

 

It really dosen't matter...but Saturday.

 

Yea, it doesnt matter to me. Make it any day that somebody wants to host one. Just limit it to like 2 tourneys a week or something so that you dont get butt loads of requests.

 

There was only suppose to be one day for tournaments a week though, and unregulated tournaments are going to lead to a clusterfudge for certain which end up on this whole thing getting the boot.

 

honestly... i dont care at this point. I just want some kind of tournament. whether it be one or two, that type of stuff can always get changed later if the demand is high enough.

 

I was reading the official thread that was under construction and I would like to help with
hosting. Here are my speeds as requested. I live on the east coast of the US.

When I play with the clan most of the time they make me host. I rarely lag. I can host 24 in
