The last 2 times we did it, it took the entire 6 hours that our battledays would normally be on. It takes a surprisingly large amount of time for teams to switch in and out and get ready for the match. A double elimination would take a very... very long time...elchino7 wrote:With 10 teams isnt it viable to make a double elimination (it takes more time yes).
Squad rush tends to be fairly quick.Spoiler: show
PD: someone needs a player?

BRACKETS ARE UP! There were only ten teams. This was the best way to set up the brackets. 4 unlucky teams have to play the first round while the other 6 automatically advance to round 2. The brackets were set up in COMPLETE random in order to be fair.
MAPS!
Judging by what I've heard, it appears that the Aftermath maps are really horrendous for squad rush. Same with the AK maps. So, we'll just be using Vanilla and some of the Karkand maps for the tournament.
Round 1: Seine Crossing
I agree it should be double elimination, so I don't have to feel bad about stomping the other team in the first round so they won't be able to play again.Henidhor wrote:
I don't really remember how it worked out the last couple times, but I like the idea of double elimination.
If I recall correctly, there are 3 or so total rounds played. Double elimination would just let everybody play more. Also, it allows the unlucky teams which are initially paired with the best teams to have another chance.TheYonderGod wrote:I agree it should be double elimination, so I don't have to feel bad about stomping the other team in the first round so they won't be able to play again.Henidhor wrote:

If time is a problem we could use both servers and do 2 at a time?
Wait so you're planning on going back and forth between servers every round? Because if not then both teams don't get to play on both servers that way either.haruky wrote:Although this may sound like it'll work in theory, due to the idea of keeping things fair, every team must have the chance to play on either server.
So what happens in the case of double elimination is not every team gets the fair chance at playing on each of the servers. Let's say that the winner bracket is on the european server at the moment. Then automatically, the loser bracket HAS to play on the NA server. And let's say winner bracket finish before. That means we have to wait for loser bracket to finish their game or else they just play on Euro server again. Do you see where I'm going with this?
No. One "match" is going to be played on one server. That server is determined by a coin flip.TheYonderGod wrote:Wait so you're planning on going back and forth between servers every round?

With double elimination the winners bracket could play on 1 server and the losers on another, then the final round could be 1 round on each server.
I'll update the OP after work tonight but it'll be GC settings, No mini map, no 3d spotting.Sarantini wrote:What server settings are we playing on?

If possible we could have a group responsible for this tourney as it seems like it is something we all look forward to, as it's a test of our skill set against fellow GC'ers.
For now less just roll with the maps and format and may the best group (or country) win.
Thanks again Haruky, and rule i want to add.... No magnums.... muhahahahahah
No minimap? But m320 is allowed? Like I understand smoke being allowed but frag?haruky wrote:
