Ok, Here's how the tourney's going to be set up:

6 on 6 - To allow room for referee, and to encourage tactics instead of general noobery

Hopefully we can get 32 teams of 6 together. If you want to register as a clan you can do so, however there can only be two teams from a clan. This is to keep one clan from flooding the roster with teams. *teams from one clan may be squaring off against one another*

The website for the tourney is being set up so when it's finished people can register there. or they can PM someone who can ensure your team is registered such as myself, Widowmaker or AJ.

I like Igg's idea, however I'm not making the website so I don't know if it can be done. I like the E-mail notices idea as well.

Gametypes will be chosen before the match, whichever the teams prefer. Slayer matches will be held in indoor arenas, and CTF will be outdoor maps.

Vehicles in the CTF games will include:

1 ghost
1 banshee
1 chain hog
1 rocket hog
and 1 tank
for each team. This allows for players to use thier vehicle of choice, without being "sheewhored" or "tank noobed"

Referee's will be present on both teams to ensure the rules are followed.

The rules (there's not many) are:
1: No Hacking of any kind (this includes aimbot, lag cheats, wall hacks, etc)
2: FF will be off, so watch your fire.
3: If a team doesn't not show up for thier match they are disqualified.
4: in the event of a tie, the team with the 1st place member wins.
5: Referee decisions are final, if they feel that a player is being in contempt of the rules, they will warn the offender. If that doesn't work, then the player will given the red card, and ejected. So don't piss 'em off.

Other than that anything is is fair game. The referees will also be there to ensure that the match is documented. With screen shots and possibly some in game Fraps footage for a montage.

I'm looking for some fair and impartial referees if anyone is interested.

Also the AR is actually good in CQB now and no longer a glorified baseball bat.

Obi, PM me a full set of rules that I can post, and I'll finish getting the site setup.

Not to be too critical but here are some possible problems you may encounter.

* Getting 6 players to showup at for a specific time is pretty hard to do. Parents, timezones, work and life tend to get in the way.

* Putting tanks and shees in maps tends to to make it unbalanced and nooby. Tanks camping the base area shut down all flag grabs and if you lose your tank to the enemy you might as well forfeit and try again in the next round.

* Referees in the game will draw fire and distract you from the real enemy

* Since the aimbot is out and obvoiusly being used you better require that people are running the anti-hack during the match so at least we know they are not hacking.

If you want to use the Maw server for some matchups let me know, its not really being used for anything but the Gathering since the new Maw clan is still in planning stage.

I was thinking that maybe we could run matches on The Maw server and the TUI server to make it quicker.

I'll turn to the Maw server only if Node doesnt get better. As far as I know, only he can move our TUI server to HPC. He accepted my offer of having it run on the TUI server a few days ago and has no problems, but his health has been declining, more mood swings,a nd I'm worried. If this is gonna put stress on him then I will use the Maw one. So yeah, thanks Igg, but for now I'm sticking with the TUI one.

We can use both servers. Make things smoother if we can have 2 matches going at the same time

If Igg's willing to help us we can use both the Maw server and the TUI server. And as for team size we'll wait and see. We might have to lower the team size and the number of teams, depending on how many people bother to register. Spread the word guys.

I could be a referee, only problems are that
A.I have a 56K modem I'm begging and bugging my grandma to get DSL, but she won't!
B.I might not be around at 7PM to 10PM because my grandma likes those frigging casinos
C.I have a hectic sleeping schedule in which I sleep all day and play all night.
D.I might not be able to take some choice screenshots because I have no photographic skills.
Other than that, I'm fine.

Right, what you said. I was in a happier place when I wrote that...
Thank you for correcting me.

I'd also like to know whether you prefer a CTF or a team slayer tournament? I'd also like to know what game length you prefer? I'm actually thinking it would be cool to not have a time limit and have a high cap/kill limit. 10 for CTF and 100 for Slayer. Sure it might take a long time to finish. You'll be tired, you'll be sweaty, you might be totally burned from too much coffee. But damn, you'll feel good if you win.

As for the vehicles, while some people may think tanks and banshees are noob weapons only to be used for whoring... They're part of the game for a reason. They present a different set of challenges for the opposing team and they must use the oppropriate tool to overcome it. Maybe one team will get the tank, and the other can get the banshee. or just have 2 tanks or 2 banshees depending on what works well for the level. Bungie did a pretty good job, but it could be tweaked a bit.
