Event/League Proposition (Pro Circuit)
Alright so I'm not sure whether this should go here or in the league section since I'm really just trying to get some input on this right now but anyway ..
Since the maps I typically make are too cluttered and difficult to fly in to the point where I really have to water them down for them to appeal to the masses. I really need an outlet, so I thought there might be some brave teams willing to participate in a gauntlet of difficult ball maps that I could throw down. Here's the idea, I'll make a set of layouts (to alleviate some of the workload they would just be black obstacles on a solid background, also to keep the colors from being distracting) for the event that would cycle through each week. The maps will be brand new and no one will get to play them before each week's matches. I will reveal the layouts an hour or two before each week's matches begin so that teams have a little bit of time to formulate a team make up and talk some strategy. Now ... fair warning I will spare no one with the brutality of these maps, and I fully expect to hear complaints about the layout and perhaps even plane imbalance for each map. This is something that your team has to deal with and pick what you believe will be the strongest team composition. The teams don't have to be tied to specific clans since this is kind of a niche thing. And as far as number of teams/players per team etc. will be decided when and if this is actually going to happen. Also I don't know much about organizing tournaments or anything like that so I would probably need someone to help me with that stuff or at least learn me up on it. There are a lot of moving parts with this idea such as loading maps on a willing server etc, so unless there's some genuine interest this will probably fall by the wayside. This event is designed to test your adaptability, nerves and flying ability. So .. comments/suggestions/any interest in this sort of thing? tl;dr - Ball Tournament with never before played difficult maps.

Well hi, Polio. Welcome back!
I'm going to take a guess at the lineup for week 1: pegs --> pegs --> pegs ... ; bo13 All kidding aside, this sounds like an exciting idea.

These maps will be a little bit harder than pegs, but I'm still going to adhere to some basic ball map principals so they'll be playable but ... brutal. I've already sketched out like 5-6 layouts for this and I'm definitely excited. Quote:

 .So, before I start making the layouts and committing to this idea, I need to know if this is doable on the Proleague servers (appropriate name) or what since I would need maps loaded onto them right before the matches. Are these servers controlled by Karlam or some rogue agent? Also, do I see any volunteers to help me with the administration aspect of this event? If someone's got some experience with setting up brackets and that sort of thing who would be interested in helping that would be great, if not I can probably fumble through it myself.
