Last month Dewww mentioned big plans for NS. Here they are:
It's XC7 with the original weapons - not railguns - but the CG now shoots at twice the speed and the rockets fly at almost double the speed. Additionally gravity is a little lower, there's some aircontrol and a little falling damage - see settings below for exact values. There's also newfangled stuff like silent BFG and teleporting projectiles.

As it's a grandslam month so you're playing for last April's points too! Oh and if we get enough entrants we'll run an intermediate here as well.


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 and practice: 1/4/10 - 7/4/10
    Round dates: the rest of the month

    WADs: XC7_
    FastChainAndRockets
    Players: TBA
    DMFLAGS1/2: 1331532 / 17957897
    Gravity: 80%
    Air Control: 20%
    Respawn limit: 20s
    Tourney type: NS
    Skill: 4 - NM
    Fraglimit: 35
    Server: L@P Germany, HorizoN, Oblacek customizables



EDIT:
I guess people never really used rockets much on this map before because we soon realised that it had no splash damage in large areas of the map - y'know, like the problem you get in some zdctf maps?
Anyways we're now running an update which solves the problem.

we've messed with the settings for like 2 weeks, the aim was to make it even more quakeish than your usual NS grandslam... so skulltag has nothing on this. :) there's even zomg fall damage! i think it's 5 hp from the highest to the lowest floor, but it's there. :) i'm afraid of the chaingun now, it's like the goddamn lightning gun...

2x[dp]? Can it be true?!

Anyways, we had some slight teething troubles with the map earlier. It seems that it is absolutely plagued by that bug you get where rockets do no splash damage on some walls. Got a fixed version 'xc7_' up and running on the KlaasedEarth server but not on L@P just yet.

EDIT:
L@P is now up-to-date.

SI - I am very inactive atm so can players message me via here instead of waiting on IRC so we can organize a match that way. I'll check this every other day or so. Thanks.
