Okay, so 2v2 tournament will be June 11th at 4pm EST. Sign up here http://forums.ssgn.net/topic/25826-official-2v2-tournament/#entry275470 or contact/message me in game (Surrey or Surrey+) with your team.

If you have any questions or comments feel free to post here or contact me in game.



Date: Saturday June 11th @ 5pm EST



Sign up:



- Sign-up open until Friday June 10th.

- Post here with your Team Pairing, Team Name (if you want) or message/contact Surrey or Surrey+ in game.

- If you don't have a partner feel free to post and I can try to help you find one or we can match you up with another partnerless person who posts here.



Scheduling:



-Round 1:



* match ups will be selected via random draw

* I will number each team and have someone select number combinations for the match ups

* Match ups will be placed in a bracket system for following rounds



-Round 2:



* Play the winning team from the other bracket in your division

* Should the team amounts be uneven some teams may be awarded a bye, this will be by random luck from their bracket pairings



- Round 3+:



* Continue in your bracket play.



Match Play/Rules:

- Single Elimination

- Matches will be best of 3 (first team to win 2 games)

- No substitutes

- Unlimited lagouts, games do not pause for lag outs, hop back in as fast as you can.

- Pilots may shipchange at any time during the match.

- Each player 'slot' is allowed 10 deaths before that 'slot' is dead.

- There are 3 ways to win a game:

1. Eliminate the other team from the box with simultaneous deaths.
2. Eliminate one opponent by causing 10 deaths. After this the other opponent is eliminated by 1 death.
3. Timer runs out. The team with the fewest deaths wins the game. If both teams have equal number of deaths, a duel will take place between one pilot on each team chosen by the acting captains.
   
   

As the description suggests, post input on your current thoughts about pyramid vs. fixed schedules. Anything else goes too, including who you'd want to add to staff or make the league op.



I wouldn't count on us getting a bunch of new squads for pyramid to work "the way it is intended to", implying that squads actually move up or down meaningfully and we have enough squads not to need a repeat match-up rule.



I don't want to lead people either way initially, so I won't post the couple of "facts" I know about either format <img src='http://www.subspace.co/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />



Oh and please, if you can, more than one word replies. ie. Fixed with top X making pro and the next Y making aml playoffs.



And no, we can't really work a 24/7 ladder system into place since we don't have an active bot/web developer to make it a viable option. The only way we could do this at the moment is to have squads play each other and post the result in agreement. But somehow I predict it wouldn't work for very long <img src='http://www.subspace.co/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />

Forget it.

Round 9 results:

5/22 3:44 pm Nguyens def The Dark 7-0 log -- Should kind of be 12-0, but I felt sorry for The Dark, so let's pretend they ran it out in javelins.

5/22 3:33 pm StarFire Elite def LSF 12-5 log

5/22 3:21 pm Llamas def !norating 12-4 log

5/22 3:02 pm Rebels def Happy Mob 9-7 log

5/22 2:41 pm Assassins def Sterling 12-3 log



In super exciting league news, SFE won a game <img src='http://www.subspace.co/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' /> Rei finished 6-0 3as 3fr. It looks like LSF out damaged SFE, but SFE got the kills.

In Llamas vs. !norating, Llamas had one or two players pressed for time so they went balls out. This lead to them killing deathknel out by 2:38. Praetor 6-0, 4FR.

Rebels and Happy Mob played tight until 31 minutes, the game was 3-3 at that point. It then ended 9-7 for Rebels.

NINE and Jae made Sterling's game vs. Assassins tricky, both dying twice by 8:54.





Standings after Round 9:

1 Nguyens 7-2 39 0.61

2 Assassins 6-3 23 0.599 -- fixed K/D

3 Sterling 6-3 9 0.556

4 Rebels 5-4 12 0.474

5 The Dark 5-4 11 0.57

6 Llamas 5-4 9 0.445

--- PRO / AML ------

7 Happy Mob 4-5 7 0.475

8 !norating 4-5 -23 0.506

9 LSF 2-7 -44 0.361

10 StarFire Elite 1-8 -41 0.405



3pm:

Nguyens vs. Sterling - 3rd and final, I think it's 1-1

Happy Mob vs. LSF - 2nd, No idea.



4pm, or worst case scenario, when Nguyens vs. Sterling finishes:

The Dark vs. Llamas - 2nd, I'd guess The Dark is up 1-0

Assassins vs. Rebels - 3rd and final, should also be 1-1

!norating vs. StarFire Elite



As you can see I didn't semi-randomly assign the times yet. I think Nguyens will play at 3pm for a change though.

Alright so I'm planning on hosting a 2v2 tournament soon, and hopefully some more events as well. I have created a thread for feedback, discussion, suggestions, comments, etc.



If you are interested please feel free to give any thoughts or suggestions, nothing is dumb, and every concern or question is worth addressing.

Alright, so I'm planning on running a 2v2 tournament in the coming weeks. I've put together a basic set of rules/guidelines so far but would like comments or suggestions from those interested in participating as well as date/time suggestions. Please post any of your suggestions, comments, questions, etc here. The aim will be for 8-16 teams which should make it around a 3 hour event, although you will have a bit of downtime in between the early matches if you are the winning team.



This will be my first run event, and should it go well and people are interested I hope to run more. Dueling tourney, 2v2 again if it's wanted, other chaos events. I would even be willing to look into starting up 2v2 league,

Duel league/ladder, etc in the future if it's wanted. I don't want to make this first event too large, but I also want it to be competitive and fun. So if you don't get in on this one, I'm sorry but we can run another one soon if it's wanted. Although I will do my best to accommodate every one who wants to play.
