Thanks Dude

I donno if I have the time to dedicate to such a process... but if certain people would open their minds, I could recruit someone who does...

[rev]

ha count me out then!

[Bam]

I would if, like you, I had more time to be around.

However, I could do it if every match was played during nights between the 4 - 10 o'clock hour + weekends whatever time. The leader of the tourney kinda needs to be there for each match.

If people could agree to this timeframe I would gladly fix and push forward with this tourney.

[MasterSplinter]

I don't want to commit to anything at this moment, but, let's place what we got on the table. Keep in mind I have never attempted to run a Tournament before.

- We got players and teams who are willing to play

- We have people who could moderate the Tournament, but have a finite availability

Instead of placing the burden of administration on one person... we could break it up among the assigned T-stand-ins... IMO, one person should be the Director... and the others should be stand-ins for the Director... That way the process can still run without the exclusive presence of one person.

That's kinda how we should run our teams too... That way the absence of a person won't inhibit a scheduled game. So in a 3v3 game... any 3 of a team of 5 (i.e.) can fill in for anyone who is absent.

The reason why I say we should have one director, is to prevent too many cooks in the kitchen... The stand-ins will have their rolls provided by the director...but the Director ultimately is in charge of scheduling, terms of play, referee (for disputes), and any other functional roles of administration.

This is probably the best way to get this thing going. You can assign a captain per team and the captains of each team make sure everything goes smoothly. All their players get on for the match, people are ready, and play the matches.

In theory, this all sounds fine and dandy; in practice, Quake is full of childish egos. I have yet to see a tournament run successfully from beginning to end without interruption, not to say this won't, but if you're missing "referees" and organizers, then best of luck to you.

ctf tourny ran fine

Yea.. with about 18 missed matches..

[monoz]

just the one you left mid game.

[monoz]

I think Kimp should also be Director of CC'ing and Director of Network Ban Testing

[monoz]

OK. Here is what I have. If people take it seriously and dont complain, then it should run fine. If people start bitching.. it will be easy enough to eject someone for being a dick.

Here is a list of teams:

1. Disco/Master/Seabass
2. Wolv/jesus/effess
3. Souless/Rev/mindz
4. Shok/Zild/Lennox
5. bib/eio/crackdog
6. bam/stolen/monoz


Any objections? anyone I missed?

Also what about a team of Kimp/ok/player?

[MasterSplinter]

Awesome line up!

Also what about a team of Kimp/ok/player?

These people can be on team BTE... and Zord. Perfect stand-ins (rotational) for attendance.
