Cruiser Command Tournament 1/6 - 2013

[Siretu]

I've been talking to other CC players, and from doing a dozen tournaments for different games, I can tell you that you need to set tournaments up about a month or more in advance. This gives people enough time to know that a tournament is going to happen and also enough time to clear their schedule for it. This is most likely why the sign up is very small for the tournament.

Yeah, I understand that. However, due to other factors that we can't change(me going away, etc), this is the best way to do it, I think. Still, it seems like we will probably get around four teams, which will be great.

For future tournaments, I would like to announce it at least a month in advance.

Would it be possible to overlay the news of the tournament on the loading screen? Maybe have some instructions on entering the tourney as well? Just a thought.

[Corinthian]

Sky, that's a greath thought. We could probably get at least one more 'Random' team together with that.

Whyte, any news on giving out the TS information, so everyone can access it for the tournament?

Insomni, how are you going to organize the team fights? Are you setting up brackets? Is everyone just going to show up in the CC channel? If we know beforehand we can help spread the word.

It's more than open for use if people want. I'll probably have to put an actual password on CCA's channel now though.

I know from the clan forums that CCA are planning on having two teams, which means I've decided to make rewards non-clanwide.

Not everyone in CCA's teams that plan to participate have signed up here. Can Goldenboy, SkyBlade, Acidburn, Crowbar and DumbMarine please sign up for the tournament in this thread.

Since there's so little time before the tournament, I'm not going to add anything to the loading screen for now.

Since no one but Tim signed up from ZergCC, I moved him to the individual team. If CCA posts 2 teams, that means we got these final teams: CCA1, CCA2, inCC and individuals.

Corinthian, the plan is that everyone shows up in the Cruiser Command group chat and then people play the games and send them to me. Since games can take up to 2 hours, both Ro4 games will be played at the same time.

The bracket can be seen in this incredibly professionally made paint picture:



(I apologize in advance for this tournament. Hopefully, everyone will enjoy it, but it's going to be rushed and badly planned from my part. If/when I organize the next one, it's going to be much better organized, I promise

Finally, there's something I would like your opinion on. What about a "sudden death" rule that says that you have to engage in the middle if the game passes 1½ hour with no more running away?
