I have a few suggestions for the BF2 tourney at the lan. By far, it is the most popular. Still only 7/10 of everyone going is registered on the alp server, but its still the most popular. I think it would be better to give it a better time slot than 7am. Also, there's 9 teams signed up so far. I have not a clue to what the rules are, but there's no way you can have a double elim tourney in 2 hours. Let me know if you need any suggestions for the rules. I've been playing with a cal team so I have plenty of experience.

Des.... I appreciate your feedback... and they are things we will definitely consider.

There were a few reasons that we put BF2 where we did.

1. We put it at 7 AM Sunday to try to get people to stay longer. At our last 2 events, we put the big games first, then 3/4 of the way through the event, everyone left. Whats the point in having a 24 hour event if everyone leaves 18 hours into it.

2. Also, by putting it at 7 AM, we actually have 5 hours to work with... since no tourney's are really scheduled for after it, we have plenty of time to get it done.

Sounds good, good thinking. I know exactly what you mean with people leaving early. It drives me crazy when people leave so early after they lose a tourney.

Since we are doing suggestions, is there a chance that the UT2004 CTF 6v6 tournament could be 5v5 instead? The UT2004 competitive CTF community has their matches as 5v5. It makes everything less crowded and organized. If not, it's cool ;]

Another thing. [s2i] may not be able to round up 6 people for some of the tournaments, so is it fine if we play 6v5 or 6v4? (maybe even 6v3 :P)

I underestand your concern.. the reason we left it as 6v6 is that since the other team tourney's are 6v6, we figured it might be nice to have teams stick together... rather than having to cut 1 person from your team just for that tourney. This way, you can find 5 other people to be on your team, and you always have a group together.

Yes, you can always play with less people if you choose... but I am sure that there will be people who don't have teams, and are looking to join one. That is left up to the team captains.

Well, if you absolutely wanted to take it to court, the only games that are played at least 6v6 are the BattleFields. CSS and UT2004 are 5v5 ;p No worries though.

Also, can we recruit some players to be on our team AT the lan? Or do they have to be signed up on our team on the intranet part of the website BEFORE the lan?

What is this sleep thing you speak of? Isn't this a 24 hour gaming LAN? I didn't see naptime on the schedule

Probably will end up eating those words at some point.
