After succesfully organizing a few testing tournaments I think I can say that I can make a tournament that will be easy to handle for me and easy for fighters (you) to understand. You should never be lost in the system of tournament unless you're completely retarded. What is even better is that you don't have to wait for your opponents multiple days or hours, the whole Tournament will be done within 1-2 hours, in one session, on one special map.
It is absolutely essential to read the rules so you understand the basic concept of the Tournament, there will be without exception no explaining during the tournament itself to individual players what they should or shouldn't do. - To join the Tournament you don't have to do anything, you don't have to be Fallen, you can be whoever, you do not enlist yourself anywhere, you just login into Fallen Tournament server at the time when the Tournament takes place (5.2.2011 - 20:00 GMT - means this Saturday). Counter till start is in the spoiler below.
2 - The tournament is on foot and without any ranged weapons, melee only. Take as many melee weapons you want, any armor you want (still bear in mind that if you take black armor or shiny plate armor, i will specialy note in final rankings (if you make it that far) that you looked silly during the whole tournament. so i recommend you rather take some stylish looking armor and fight like a man....).
3 - This shows the map - qualifying round for final Tournament (playoffs) will take place in archery arena. Final playoff rounds will take place in main melee arena. You can check the map anytime.
4 - Nobody will be riding on horse anywhere on a map, even if he is not part of the tournament or is not fighting. The only ones on horse will be the people that will help organize the tournament.
5 - DO NOT USE TEAMCHAT OR CHAT IN GENERAL
6 - Join FALLEN TS server before the Tournament starts (this is optional, if you read rules carefully you will always know what to do and i will type orders in both teamchat and ts).
server= fallenbrigade.org
port = 9987
password= ginnungagap
- There will be SEVEN last man standing (LMS) qualifying rounds that will take place in the archery arena.
2 - Everybody willing to qualify into playoffs will go inside the archery arena, find a position on flat ground - do not try to hide or climb on higher edges or i will ban you immediately.
3 - On my command the fight starts - the one that survives until the end and thuss will be last man standing will qualify into playoffs.
4 - The one that qualified into playoffs is not fighting anymore in LMS qualifying rounds
5 - All the people that die in the LMS fight will wait OUTSIDE archery arena until the LMS fight is over. They won't kick or punch other players so they can see better from the edge of the slope, they will just wait.
6 - When the LMS fight is over and the call is given, than everybody who wants to try again for qualifying can enter the arena again for another LMS round.
7 - There are 7 LMS round, the last 8th spot for playoffs is given to Randomdude, the defending champion that won this Tournament in its last testing phase (with about 25 people in it).
8 - Depending on number of people coming, the qualifying rounds could also take place in Jousting Arena instead of archery one, this will be decided before the Tournament.
9 - You don't have to fight in all LMS rounds, in fact if you come late by 30 mins and LMS rounds will be still in progress, you can wait for the next fresh started and join that one and try your luck immediately. There will be a lot of people, you don't have to ask if you're permited into the new LMS round, you are. You can fight in any LMS you want, you can have a break and just observe or you can try your luck in all rounds. The only situation when you're not permited to fight in LMS is when you've already won one.
10 - no cooperating or creating groups of players in LMS rounds, everybody fights for himself.
playoffs1 - 7 warriors that survived 7 LMS round qualify + defending champion
2 - playoff rounds take place in melee arena
3 - the system is following
------------------------------------------------
QUATERFINALS
defending champion VS 8th to qualify
2nd to qualify VS 7th to qualify
3rd to qualify VS 6th to qualify
4th to qualify vs 5th to qualify
1 MATCH ONLY, LOOSER ELIMINATED
------------------------------------------------
SEMIFINALS
defending champion OR 8th to qualify
VS
4th to qualify OR 5th to qualify
2nd to qualify OR 7th to qualify
VS
3rd to qualify OR 6th to qualify
1 MATCH ONLY, LOOSER ELIMINATED
------------------------------------------------
FINALS
2 men, the first one to WIN 2 MATCHES is the tournament winner
------------------------------------------------
4 - i will be puting names o people that qualify and i will call u namely into melee arena so don't worry that you'd get lost on when to fight or not.
5 - basicly whenever you die in playoffs you're eliminated, except for the finals where you have to win 2 rounds.
6 - only people that are called to fight can enter melee arena, nobody else
other rules1 - if you missbehave, do silly things, you will be just banned without warning
2 - Server for the tournament is passworded (this guarantees that only the ones who did read all the rules this far will know the password) - the password is:
tournament3 - everybody without exception is on foot, on horses are people who organize the tournament. if a guy from horse hits you, than you're doing something wrong, something silly, you're standing where you shouldn't stand. keep doing it for a few more seconds and you will be banned (meaning permabanned from all other tournaments).
4 - other rules that i forgot might appear later on, there is also 1 problem with the tournament map - sometimes catapults spawn there randomly showing red text, just ignore that, we can't get rid of it...
5 - any questions? ask here in the thread, better now than during the tournament itself.
basic most important rules short recap!- tournament has 2 parts - LMS and playoffs
- it is melee only, no horses, no ranged
- nobody nowhere spawns on horses, guys on horses are those that organize tournament!
- behave in a mature way - dont kick others, dont hit them, don't fight them. fight only in a tournament fights (lms, playoffs)
- if guy on horse hits you (tournament masters), you do something wrong, if you keep doing it you'll be banned
- guys on horses (tournament masters) are gods, you can't hit them in any way.
- no registrations, just come to the server at the right time. join any LMS rounds you want before they start
- never go to LMS round arena if you're not told
- everybody goes to LMS arena together when the call is given, only 1 man leaves it, fight start when the call is given
- dont use chat
- do not hide on high ground in LMS rounds
- if your connection fucks up, its your problem. if you have a lagg (even server sided) its your problem and bad luck.
- if you want to regain health just go to spectator to die and join faction again
- server will be set to deathmatch mode
- about tournament masters (guys on horses), in arenas they are like referees, they are not part of the fight so ignore them.
- USE COMMON SENSE
championThe one that wins the tournament will bear the tittle of defending tournament until the next tournament will be held, he also will have direct access into the playoffs. He also will get couple of heirlooms for FREE, or not...?
tournament masters (TM)Guys that are helping me with organizing the tournament, only them and nobody else is allowed to spawn with horse.
TM duties- Destroys spawning catapults from time to time (especially when those stupid red messages start to appear)
- Won't let resspawned people go inside LMS arena when fights are in progress - if they go there, kills them immediately. If they protest or fight back - ban.
- If anybody kicks, punches, fights other resspawned players anywhere on the map, TM hits them. If they continue to do it or fight back, kill + ban.
- In LMS if anybody is obviously working continually together (of course sometimes 2 people on the edge will focus on the middle guy, this is ok) - TM kills them.
- In LMS if anybody is continually avoiding the fight - TM tramples him, if player continues to avoid the fight than TM kills him.
- In playoffs if anybody who is not called goes inside or atop of stone wall of the melee arena, TM hits/kills him. If he does it continually, ban
- TM kills anybody who spawns on horse, if he spawns continually on horse than ban.
- If TM is hit by anybody, kill back + ban.
Tournament Masters for this Tournament

Fallen_Sultan_KhalifaRESULTS!THE TOURNAMENT IS OVER!
first of all thx to everybody who came, i haven't counted it properly but i believe like 40+ people altogether tried their luck in tournament. i was very surprised how people followed the basic rules (except for a few ones that i'm not going to mention). unluckily defending champion randomdude was not able to come, nobody knows what is with him so we had to make 8 qualifying rounds instead of 7 ones.
Winners of qualifying rounds - last men standing
round 1 - ODINVALHALA (won only fighting in robe!)
round 2 - MERC_VARYAG (horsebumped to get into the fight he was avoiding - "mr. turtle" of the tournament)
round 3 - MERC_LAMHBAN (reliably made it into playoffs in one of the first rounds)
round 4 - CRAZY_CRISTO (fighting with medium tier armor only)
round 5 - MERC_CYBER (always finished at least 3rd in previous LMS rounds, deserved to qualify)
round 6 - PECORES_KAFEIN (not staying outside the fights)
round 7 - FALLEN_SORROW (took a plate armor, "mr. i'm afraid" of the tournament)
round 8 - MERC_AND_BORED (medium tier armor only, confirmed dominance of mercs in qualifiers)
playoffs quaterfinals
MERC_AND_BORED defeats ODINVALHALA (swift fight)
FALLEN_SORROW defeats MERC_VARYAG ("mr. turtle looses to "mr. i'm afraid" - but after a good fight)
MERC_LAMHBAN defeats PECORES_KAFEIN (kafein probably panicked a bit, lamhban confidentely wins)
CRAZY_CRISTO defeats MERC_CYBER (a very good fight, my secret adept for a winner was eliminated)
playoffs semifinals
MERC_AND_BORED defeats CRAZY_CRISTO (well played from Bored)
FALLEN_SORROW defeats MERC_LAMHBAN (maybe the best fight of the whole tournament, Lamhban looted another shield during the fight that was not really appreciated by audience, on the other hand Sorrow kept fighting in plate armor.)
finals
FALLEN_SORROW defeats MERC_AND_BORED
2:1 in final score (fallen_sorrow win, merc_and_bored win, fallen_sorrow win)
all of the fights in finals were very equal.
HAIL TO THE CHAMPION FALLEN SORROW (hopefully next time in proper armor)
for the next tournament Fallen_Sorrow has a spot in playoffs guaranteed so he doesn't have to go through LMS matches.
next tournament will be probably the next week
i suppose it will be clan tournament 5v5 fights on the same map
hopefully we fix a bit the map for the next week (no catapults that maybe caused game crashes for many of you)
feel free to c&c the finished tournament
p.s. - clan tournament maybe even with league will shortly follow, its possible this will be done together with Aemaelius, time will show...
