Sounds interesting. But one of the problems w/ the current tournament is a vague description of the rules which leads to a lot of confusion. Same problem here...

- When is this taking place? (Dates + times relative to GMT)
- How many weeks is it going to take to get through the tournament? (4 weekends for the current tournament seems a bit too long to me)
- When does registration end?
- How many rounds are played to determine the outcome of a single 1v1? (current tournament has one round to decide, many people were suggesting that it be best of 3)
- What does it take to decide a round? (how many kills or deaths or whatever, dependent on map)
- What maps are allowed/disallowed?
- Are all perks allowed (I'm assuming so)?
- Are we committed to using a single plane of our choice (i.e. for the whole tournament)?
- If answer to previous question is 'no', can we switch planes/perks mid-round? Between rounds (if it takes multiple rounds to decide the outcome of a single 1v1)?
- What's the stance on powerups?
- Is there a 'lag cap'?
- How are the initial matchups going to be decided? Random? By plane?
- etc...

I'm In and seen that I pass a lot of time on altitude I can check the matches and a server if u want me to. I'll surely do it but only if matches will have a pre-choosen time; for example:If I should be from 5 to 8 pm GMT online to check the server, I will. Otherwise I won't be able to be online. I need to know it before.

This wont work unfortunately but good luck anyway. To many people, too little time, even the other 1v1 tourneys are having a hard time. If it goes through and its not won by a miranda or explodet your tourney is flawed

I would love to be in this, SIGN ME IN YORK BABY!

Not sure on times. Maybe after all these 1v1's are done. During APL would be nice, to pass time during the week.
I can;t say how long it will take. If four people sign up, 1 day, if 200, it could take 2 months. I don't know.
I'll let you all know when registration ends, like with a date, until then, its the first 200 people to sign up.
Its best of 3. Matches are duels, so it is going to be 1dm.
I'll make it 21 rounds, so you need to win 11 times. That wins one game. So to win a match, it would be 22 kills.
All 1dm maps are allowed.
All perks can be used.
You can change planes when ever you want. After a match, after a game, during a game.
All power-ups can be used.
The schedule will be random as well as times. I am going to assign time slots to make it easier for the admins. I wont be breaking it up into plane type either because that the whole point on this tourny.

Thanks for being an admin. What's you in game name? And yes, all admins will be told the games they must attend long be fore the game starts.

Why, I didn't think I need permission from you. I am not going to interfere with your 1v1's or APL. Would you like to be an admin?

Not quite true. I said It the pre-season tourny. Becuase well, it a tourny, before the season. Just for fun, no one is going to take it seriously. I coulda called it The Tourny That Takes Place Before The APL Season. AS A MTTER OF FACT, MODS, PLEASE CHANGE THE NAME TO THAT. JEEZ, people gottta get off my back

I don't see any problem with people coordinating their own tourneys and leagues without talking to evil first. Evil's not the "god" of all leagues, he just happens to be the successful organizer of the biggest one.

What worries me is the apparent lack of organization that seems to behind some of these threads. I personally don't sign up for a league or tourney unless I know the exact rules, format, dates, and how it conflicts with other events that are already going on. I encourage you to make a tourney or league or other thing for the benefit of everyone, but I think such an endeavor should only be taken on if you intend to see it through to the end and provide enough information for everyone to know what they are committing themselves to.

I'm worried these two tourneys you have just created will go the same way that your previous "Minor League" one did, because the same lack of organization was evident in the last league that you failed to start.

But it's got the word 'ultimate' in it!

sign me up...

[Tank]

hey, if there is a 1v1 tourney, sign me up.

[Loli.ta]

Rofl, how can people say sign me up if they don't even see anything in the opening statement. Does that mean these people don't read?

[Tosconi]

this means, that there was actually written everything needed about the initiative, until one of the known admins deleted the message and changed it to what it is now.

[Loli.ta]

I also looked at the times in which the message was edited, and compared it to the times in which the posts were made.

I guess, I apologize for saying people, when I should've addressed Tank. My bad.
