yeah, it was just a thought.

no, really I know exactly what you mean. I thought about that when I asked it. It would be tougher to do, but would definately be cool.

that's a very good question pikachu...

let's see, i think we should probably use the jolt maps, and perhaps some other custom maps. we'll see. anyone else have any ideas?

For maps maybe one side picks a map, the other picks the 2nd, and the 3rd is something like CTF-Orbital?


Looking at the list, there doesnt seem to be any super powerhouse 1337 d00dz like Mrukk this time, so we may not even have to shift people around. Also if we run out of places I suggest sticking it up to 6 a team, so if one person cant make it to a game (which is *very* likely to happen), you can still field a 5v5 team. If both teams have 6 they can always play with 6v6 if the map suits it and both teams agree. Better to have a 5v5 game than a 4v4 game with fewer people in the tourney.

And another thing, maybe we could do a UTV thing on this so others can watch? I believe anyone can pick up the mod and run a server. This way potentially hundreds could watch the game and not lag the server.

I second everything LK says here. The only prob might be getting 48 players when we seem to struggle to get 40.
Seems to missing quite a few [Ci] and some RSU and them zd junkies might be talked into playing too. 3s even said the other day in IRC he liked CTF :)

personally I think that the third map, should it prove nessary, should be a random one that NEITHER team is overly firmiluar with. THAT is what makes a good team... one that can adapt to unpredictable circumstances. ;)

::snicker::

am i missing an inside joke or something? cause i dont get it. :con:

but no. i ment for a non-participant of the match randomly choosing from a brief list of maps that neither team knows very well.
