Dodgeball Tournament March 9th
Sunday, 9th of March
2PM EST (same time as SL if DST applies to you [after clock change], one hour earlier than most recent SL if not) Max Roster Size: 5 Games will be played 3v3 unless both captains agree to play 4v4. Unranked game support will be added for db. You still start tournament in lobby and change map to db. One sub is allowed to be on each team. Since I know there will be a lot of people showing up that don't have teams I will allow teams to be registered up to 15 minutes before start of tournament. But if possible please register earlier so I have some idea how many teams to expect. To register, reply with your team name and roster. No shows on your team can be swapped out if needed before the tournament starts with someone still looking for a team. This post will be updated closer to start of tournament with more details. Awards: None other than recognition on AltitudeRank.com that you have won the tournament. For now I will create a tournament winners page. Later on when AltitudeRank.com has player profiles, player achievements will be supported. Winners of this tournament will have it as an achievement on their profile. If a large number of teams enter, 2nd and/or 3rd place might earn an achievement as well. Last edited by VAN1SH1NG; 03-06-2014 at 10:17 PM.

Only a few days left to form a team! Wasn't really expecting many teams to signup in advance but I am sure at least 2-3 will form in game before the tourny. I will try to be prepared for a wide range of team numbers.
If you don't have a team but want one, please try to be online at least 30m before the tournament starts and have teams formed at least 15m before tournament starts. The only change that might occur before the tournament is streak bonuses. They are almost certainly going to be bumped up from 2 & 4 to 3 & 5 or temporarily removed for the tournament. I probably will also allow up to 5v5 if both teams have enough players and agree. DB seems best at 3v3 but I understand if you'd rather play the whole team rather than have to sit anyone. Most importantly do not forget... DAYLIGHT SAVINGS TIME STARTS ON DAY OF TOURNAMENT! Not sure how DST applies globally, but be sure to change your clocks if DST is starting for you. For everyone without DST tournament will start one hour earlier than the most recent SL did. Last edited by VAN1SH1NG; 03-06-2014 at 10:29 PM.

Some updates for now, rest of the tournament info coming later.
Streaks will be disabled for the tournament. It will either be a single or double round robin depending on how many teams participate. Number of teams will also affect playoff format. If a lot more teams than expected show it would be 4 teams, 1v4 + 2v3 and finals. More likely it will just be either top two teams play for finals or 2v3 then finals with top team getting a bye to finals. I will announce format before the tournament starts after I know how many teams there are. If needed tie breaker will be Head to Head (matches). If still even will be Head to Head (rounds won against each other - so rounds won should be recorded for each match). I will attempt to monitor this but may need some help. Playoffs will be a "Best of 3" in that you will play up to 3 matches (each match still requires you to win three rounds). As stated before 3v3 is required to play and what I consider to be the best team size for dodgeball. However, if both teams have enough and agree to it either 4v4 or 5v5 is acceptable. If an extra player is available, each team can put 1 sub on the team. If there is a sub, the sub must stay in spec and be eliminated due to not spawning. There is no limit to how many times a switch can be made. Just be sure that only the correct number of players spawn in each round. If someone disconnects or is lagging with no sub available, the other team should sit a player so that all rounds start at even strength. However, if a disconnect occurs in the middle of a round it is not expected for a player on the opposing team to stop spawning or otherwise eliminate himself. You start games like you do league by starting tournament and changing to db_beta map. Never use /stoptournament while on the db_beta map. Use /votestoptournament (or admins can stop) if needed. Most likely will set up servers with Dodgeball in the name to be used for the tournament but will finalize server plans tomorrow morning. Both US and EU servers will be available with home team getting server choice. In playoffs top seed picks server for 1st and 3rd match. Lower seed selects server for 2nd match.
