    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...

    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.

    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.

    @Russian1
    Read the rules - esp. #6.
    Next time keep those comments to yourself.

    @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...

    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.

    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.

    London: ping 206 ms
    download 9735 kbps
    upload 2313 kbps

    New York: ping 61 ms
    download 13856 kbps
    upload 2613 kbps

    Los Angeles: ping 89 ms
    download 11442 kbps
    upload 2514 kbps

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