No one gives a shit, and for the record, most of the people who talk about "dominant clans" aren't even in {V} (at least when I played a week ago).

This tournament just seems like scrims with dates and some basic prize attached, which is probably why it hasn't been successful so far. Personally, I prefer scrimming whenever I want to without the obligation of playing at a predetermined time.

Tournaments in Tremulous are generally pointless and are a waste of time. They'd probably only work in this game if it attracted pro-gamers, or whatever they call themselves now.  That's just my opinion, though.

Sorry for the negative attitude. :-p

How about we just have a match with whoever wins that little tournament. Then when we win we can call ourselves the most dominant clan? Sounds fair to me, besides a lot of our members including myself and AppleJuice won't be able to attend the Tournament anyways because of the dates. Having to do all of our matches in 1-2 days is lame imo, they should be spread out over weeks.

Hey,

#1 tourneys in trem generally fail, no matter how well organized.
#2 Yarou could kick your ass alone, much less with the rest of {v}.
#3 why would you say something like that? You're just stirring up people. (see my post for example of results)
#4 Good luck Harry, I hope this fares better than those of the past.
#5 I hope ATCS doesn't make your final round of maps, the justice would be epic. :p

To bad

To bad

To bad

To bad

Says enough

We've already beaten pretty much every real clan that is alive right now (while "rusty"), so it's hardly a matter of being "scared."

It's more like none of us are still 12 years old; almost half our clan is inactive until May (college).

It's more like some of the people behind this tournament chose to be annoying, rather than logical; antagonistic, rather than understanding. That's not going to attract anyone. TIPS 4 THE FUTURE (ya I'm looking at u stevenm/produde/whoever)

CONCLUSION: FAIL

P.S. produde that only works on people in ur own clan (read: idiots)

Scrims with dates without the prize. ROFL
I actually made the tournament because there aren't many "pro-gamers" in Tremulous. My reasoning was that people don't have time for scrims UNLESS they are scheduled. In order to scrim another clan, 4 players have to just happen to be on, and 4 players from the other clan have to happen to be on. That means, if your clan is small or inactive, you are SOL. With tournaments, it's fine if you are inactive because you only need to be on once a week for, say, a month, knowing that when you are on, you will a clan to scrim.

I never said that ._.
There's no way I'm gonna schedule the whole tournament over 2 days. I've gotta set a date to cut off of registration before I set match dates.

What a load of granger droppings, what kind of brilliant idea is that? It'll just piss people off, period.

That being said, Harry Potter Pothead has his intentions aimed at a positive route, there aren't many "Pro-players" on the internet anymore, and when I mean "Pro players" I meant playing with and against players who are actually fun to play with. Back in college, LAN games on Tremulous was the shit, if someone is camping too much, you could go to their dorm and beat the crap out of them.

Getting back on topic, I hope this tourney will work out for you Harry and StevenM, lets just cross our fingers that the tourney will start moving soon.

Important announcement:

Registration will be closed at 11:59 P.M. EST Friday, January 23

There are currently 6 registered teams. If there aren't 8 by then, I will change the bracket.

The first matches will be announced soon after and will probably take place the week after January 31 and Feb. 1.

If anyone can help spread the word to all participants about this Saturday, that would be great. Unfortunately, I don't have a way to contact all participants. Just tell them to check forum.tremzone.com for their match dates.

Current scores posted and will be updated regularly on the TZ forum(not an accurate indicator of who will win)

Round 2 match dates posted (all on Saturday, February 7)

The make-up date for Hybrid vs Normality will be announced after all 3 rounds have been finished, but I'd prefer they make it up sometime before that.
