« on: June 02, 2013, 05:52:52 PM »

Prizes: 1st: $40, 2nd: $25, 3rd: $15

Current player list: misery, ex, golgo, kyper, deadbeat, alpha

IRC info: #nadl on irc.enterthegame.net

Rules:
1. Standard match settings:
 -10 minutes with 2 minute overtime
 -no BFG -> vote weapons –bfg
 -Powerups off -> vote powerups 0
 -Spectator chat off during match -> vote chat 1

2. Map selection:
  -Standard bracket play: The player with the higher seed picks first map, and then the second player chooses the second map. If a third map is necessary, the player with the highest frag count chooses who starts to kick the last remaining maps until there was one map left to choose from.
 -Loser/Grand Finals:  The player with the higher seed picks first map, and then the second player chooses the second map. The third map, and if necessary, the fourth and fifth map will be determined by kicking maps. The player with the most wins or highest frag count after two maps will decide who kicks first. Both players will kick maps until there are two remaining maps left. The player who kicked last chooses which map gets played first.

3. Choosing servers
-Players can choose to play on servers as home/away or on a neutral server. If a player refuses to play home/away, then a neutral server must be determined by both players. If such an agreement cannot between both players, an admin will choose a neutral server for both players to choose on.

4. Regarding Anticheat usage
-Anticheat is required with any of the various clients that are compatible with it (R1Q2, q2pro, aprq2).

5. Cheating
-Cheats of any form (e.g. wallhacks, spiked models, aimbots, etc.) is prohibited from being used. If a player is caught using cheats, they will be kicked out of the event and/or have their prize forfeited.

6. Recording demos
-Recording demos is not required but it is highly recommended encouraged by admins, especially as it will aid a player when caught up in a dispute with another player. If you choose to play on a server that has timers enabled (e.g. TSLA, TSIL), admins may request for demos of matches played on such servers.

7. Timers
-Timers are banned from being used in this event. If you choose to play on a server that allows for timers to be used, an admin may request your demos from matches that have been played on such servers. If a player is found to be caught using timers, they will be kicked out of the event and/or have their prize withheld.

8. Playing matches on time.
-It is expected that players will play their matches. Refuse to do so by a player may result in a match forfeit.

9. Player behavior and conduct.
-Players are expected to display a certain level of respect towards the admins and players. Trash talking is permitted to a certain degree but not to such level where it becomes disruptive and prevents matches to getting played. Such behaviors will not be tolerated and the admin may choose to kick such players out of the event.

10. Distribution of prizes
-The admin will sometime after the event distribute prizes via paypal, so make sure that you have an account, however other methods of transfer maybe considered. Also, the admin may choose to withhold prizes if he/she sees fit (e.g. bad conduct by the player, cheating, etc.).

11. Admin has the final say.
-The admin has the final decision on all matters, and also for rules that are not covered here.

====================================================

Feedback is appreciated, especially when it comes to the tournament date. What I need to know the most is what people's schedules are like. I can push the tourney date to accommodate players as my schedule is quite open these days.

grunt vs grunt or athena vs athena to prevent some one from complaining about "man i can't hit female models, i woulda won if i was on visitors!"

it is 1v1, so the mirror shouldn't matter :)

also, doesn't voting all powerups off also remove adrenaline, backpack, and bandolier

personally think a specified list of servers would also work better... so you don't get that odd server config kinda wtf issue

and recording demos should be required imo, it is very super easy and you can give people 1 touch record scripts to throw in autoexec if they need help (takes like 30 seconds to set up)... if a match admin is watching the game, just have them check before hand "both of you recording?"

Yes, I see your point with the skins. Same skins don't matter but what is important to me is that someone doesn't pick random skin that someone might not have a bright skin for. So I'll just delete that tidbit since changing skins was really never a problem in public games.

Yes, it'd be easier to use a web config edl but not ever server has that.

I think people are going to forget to record demos that's why I'm not going to enforce it. I'd rather use that autoscript you see on TSIL/TSLA, but it's not really feasible to ask an admin to that script to every server just for this little cup.

too bad this requires anticheat.

Also unfortunate that all of the players signed up don't meet your original purpose for a novice cup.

Maybe he's not trolling and is just another one of those special people who can't manage to use anticheat because they swear they are on linux and have no other computer capable of running a game from 1998 or access to a windows operating system like windows xp which anyone with google can install and cracktivate in about 20 minutes for 100% free.
