We had some big plans for NS, but all of them got pushed backwards, so we had to quickly choose something reliable. Well, Onslaught series! We ignored them so far, didn't we? Maybe they are a bit FFA-ish, but they still remain among the few staples in people's favour. A whole series of megawads!
The one that got picked is Onslaught3 map06. It retains the trademark arena style, but this one is free of ammo and healths. This is the main reason for keeping the NM skill, but maybe we'll see some BFG action this month. Cybershark provided a patch to turn the original blue armor into a green one. What might have been a good idea for FFA would probably prove overpowered in 1on1. Otherwise - all is fair, NS all the way (well, not instaswitch).
Rules (Please read them all):
Registration:
- Minimum Exp points needed to enter this Tourney - 1000. This is done to keep out aliasers and unreliable players. If you have proven to be reliable, you will be allowed to enter the tournament regardless of your Exp level.
- Aliases are no longer allowed. If you have more than one nickname that is used on a regular basis, that's ok; a new nickname purely for the tourney will get you DQ.
- It is highly recommended that you include a messenger service as well as an email address in your contact details. They're free to get, and they will greatly increase the chances of getting your games played.
- Only sign up if you're sure you can play; we will not tolerate no-shows. Obviously we will be flexible if your internet goes down but do not sign yourself up if you know for a fact you're going to be on holiday for a good chunk of the month.
- The registration form is still broken so anyone wishing to play should post here or contact someone with an account here to post for him (contact one of the tourney admins as the last resort). Please include: Name, Location, Contact details (email, msn, etc) and Best time to play.
Playing:
- If you fail to turn up for your game, you will be banned from the current tourney as well as the following one.
- You must contact your opponent ASAP after you find out who they are and arrange a time to play. If you miss your match and the other player turns up, the above rule applies. If neither player turns up, the above rule also applies.
- Post your scores in the tournament thread or PM them to a Tournament Administrator (cybershark, dewww or Nero).
- Be sure to post on the forums at least once every round. If your match doesn't get played for whatever reason, then we have no record to what extent both of you tried to contact each other. The result will be a double DQ.
- Rematches are no longer allowed. If you have a problem during your match, speak to your apponent to arrange another time as soon as the problem becomes apparent.
- Tourney admin must be notified before the end of a round if extra time for playing your match is needed; Failure to do so will result in DQ.
- It is highly recommended that both players record demos and take screenshots of the game. It will be easier for the Admins to deal with disputes about matches if all the resources are with them.
Server rules:
- Try making a friendly, peaceful agreement on the server choice. If both sides are happy, we're happy and everyone's happy. Good job!
- If you can't agree on a server, both players should select two from the official trio (horizon, oblacek, l@p) they're willing to play on. You should have at least one in common. If you're locked in a 1-2 2-1 situation, go into any random server and flip a coin with "callvote flipcoin" to decide.
- In case it's impossible for you to play on neutral grounds, play two full matches, on both sides' homefield. Finns might select a finnish server, but weird stuff running from someone's mother's PC won't be allowed. Add frags from both matches and compare them, the bigger total wins. In case of a tie, play another two matches. The 25-25 split matches should not be used, because you need to fully enjoy the fairness of this situation.
- If you still have disputes, call an admin to make a decision. But don't expect it to be amicable and fair to everyone, as it's probably impossible at this point.
Dates:
Registration: 26/2/10 - 4/3/10
Round dates: the rest of the month
WADs: Onslaught 3 + armor switch
Map: map06
Players: 13

Hi, would it be possible to setup a tournament for players with slightly less confidence? (a 'noob' tournament I suppose) I'm not sure how popular this idea would be, but me personally, I would feel a lot more comfortable and willing to play if I thought I had even the smallest chance of winning |

hi, we are more than willing to organize such a tourney.. we already had a couple of 'intermediate skill' tournaments. the problem is it's hard to get enough signups for such a contest. we will keep trying though, so be ready. :) |

xReload: There used to be also "novice" tourneys held in past, however, as dewww says, there is not enough people willing to participate today in order to organize more monthly tourneys (such as "novice").
If enough people sign up for the Open tourney, participants are ranked according to their skill/preceding results into separate brackets - Open and Intermediate.
Nevertheless, you can still run into a "not-that-pro" player in the Open tourney (like me ), so don't be discouraged to join! After all, it is playing with better players that gains you experience. |
