This month's NS choice comes from the ninth (and last so far) sequel of the famous Doomworld's 32-in-24 series. That means it's a speed map, designed and built within 24 hours after the theme/mode was announced. It also has a special significance for me and cybershark. We kinda bashed the wad's quality when it came out and made long map-by-map reviews to back up our claims, which basically means we're the world's top experts on this wad. :p
To put it bluntly, most of the 45 (!!) maps in this wad suck. Not because of time constraints for their creation, but because the mappers weren't experienced in 1on1 principles and just went wild with their gut feelings. It might have been a good mapping exercise, but playing them would probably prove frustrating for... "our kind", erm. Still, there is a handful of maps that qualify for a good duel experience and some of them actually promise excellent fun. Like this here kuchi's map21, also known as Geography Class Warfare. Small, quick and compact, with interesting height variation and even some everpopular lift action! This is how maps are done properly within one day. And it even looks one step better than sipooma. :)
Tech sidenote: Gameplay will be "traditional" with all the usual NS features plus tele missiles, silent bfg and 10% aircontrol for a slightly better chance at a certain trick. Yes, you can grab the bfg from the other side, although I can only do it with a rocket boost.
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.

The HorizoN OS server is finally up now, the NS one will be too in a bit, there's just one problem: Gravity 100% or 80%? L@P is still using 80%, so I don't know whether something is wrong there or if something is missing here. |
