updatedGosh darn gee willikers!
of course xant can't come, i forgot to mention this
Shogunate will most probably participate.
P.S. Damn you Beauchamp, you took the armour i was thinking of getting. I actually have no armours to chose from ! :(
updatedI have 7 ps on my 1hander and can easily kill tincans with a non-heirloomed sword, same when i had 6 ps. But this is a huge offtopic anyway.
the limit on armors will probably change from tournament to tournament - sometimes a clan will benefit from them, sometimes not. its not meant directly against anybody. the idea was to give 1handers a bit bigger chance so they don't have to use short picks or warhammers against tincans.
i'm sure
Ninjas need to check up on amount of participants, but we'll try to make it
The Strangers ready. Cuir Bouilli over Mail. Please no lags :rolleyes:

Gentlemen,
Grey Order is willing to participate.
Style - Heraldic
I just hope its not too late...
Oh, pity, it means it is too late... Thx, we will get ready anyway :(
Beauchamp you are aware there are issues with pole arm animations when it come to overhead attacking team mates.
This could cause a problem in the tournament and i would urge you to ensure that opposing teams choose opposing factions ingame for their fights.
Beau, if we convince another team to join, will you consider making 2x7 groups? :wink:
My reply is fairly off topic, but during the 2 latest tournaments i've been on, I've noticed that evryone was sort of spectating, but really being quite silly and passive. Why not enable the "Q" emotes, like whistle, maybe edit it so we can have some cheering, I'd love to see an "animated" crowd. 1st tournament I remember people jumped off the wall, that was funny but really anoying. I think 3 emotes would be great; some whistling, a cheer and a "boooo".
:D :D
I'm guessing we shall just go heraldic as shogunate took banded (lolwut) and Cui bouili is taken by STR. Woulda been nice if we could have taken brigadines as i think a lot guys already have that :P
Will these max Armour requirements apply for the second round beau?
unfortunately the Ninja is a too small clan atm, so we will not be able to assemble a team.
Sorry for saying we will participate, but i knew that i had only a short amount of time to decide wether or not we should sign up.
This will leave a new space for another clan, and i hope we will be able to participate next time
DUE TO REAL LIFE ISSUES I HAVE TO POSTPONE THE 1ST QUALIFIERS TO 17:30 (still i even might be little more late than that)
The world doesn't stop turning if you're late, take the time needed, we'll wait.Agreed
Question regarding rule 5.)
Can we spawn on horses for the fight or are the battles footman only.
How are you guys going to fight in a tournament if all you do is run from melee? :?

if our enemies will fight like you, we will just shoot them to the back or headshot them over their shields when they get to close.
if they will fight in an organized manner we will probably come with our melee characters to fight them toe to toe.
but for sure we won't be hitting our teamates, teamkilling them, lying about it being an accident and than votekicking them like one "unnamed" retard from your clan that doesn't know how to loose...

These are the battles I recorded from the first round of the qualifiers, unfortunately I couldn't record anything from the second round, hope the Shogunates did it though.

Props to you Shogunates for being fair and honest.
Now I'm gonna sit back and enjoy the videos ^^
Those two videos are giving me "This video is private" page, can't watch it :evil:
I've uploaded many videos on youtube very easy :? ... if u want i can help u with upload.
I dont need help. I just frogot to remove ts conversations from some of videos. Gay sound switch is taking ages.
math is hard
Will the map be fixed or do we hide in the hay again? =)
i'm tired of clan tournaments, the next one will therefore be a completely different one, i think it will be a tournament of couples. with the system very similar to the first individual tournament. some LPS will also go to appropriate clans from those that will make it through qualifiers.
8:5-8:0-8:0-8:1-8:0
Really nice results pitty about the end result but theres always next time.Altho the next ones are probably going to be 2v2, meaing it will be in couples.
All simple.Noone will brake rulees, if all would be in spectators, and only fighters and admin on the field.
Thanks Beauchamp for making this a nice tradition and something different from the alldaily cRPG grind. I can imagine, how big a bitch it is to organise such a big event with the dreaded cRPG community. I can say at least for myself, that I had very fun times.
However, I still don't get the tournament system... mabye it's not fully developed yet. ;)
And congratulations to Risen for the end result, I guess you earned it.
And so seriously noone recorded those matches? Not that I would have loved to see our matches again, but I especially want to observe the match between Greys against STR again. It was so epic and with a great twist at the end.
i didn't like in the begining the idea, because i like to see the audience around the fights. but i'm strongly considering that this will be probably the best way.
teampunching is not to big problem, there are way "bigger" things how to break tournament rules. but i'm afraid if one guy will be allowed to teampunch, the others will follow and the whole tourney will turn to punch punch punch fest. there is imo nothing inbetween - either allow to punch everybody or not punch at all.
I think that comes down to how every clanleader disciplines his group. In the qualifiers, as soon as I saw some of my clanmates starting a fistfight, I called them to order and they followed. That's why there is TS. At least the clanleaders should be expected to have heard and read the rules to a level that they can tell the general gist of it to the team, no matter if asked or not, and also enforce them on their clan. I did that at least and we had no problems afterwards, except for the random punch here and there.
Beau, Vicious666 is not a diplomat of our clan ;d
as long as you understand that a clan and a member isn't the same thing it should be allright, though i don't think that we have more tards than other clans, they're just maybe more known and better than other's ^^
this tournament is following your rules beauchamp so well, it is how you want it to be,
at least it allowed our clan to show that even if we were a bit rusty in the beggining we are the best in the end
Hehe, we were missing quite some key players in the end battles.
Ragni, Melas, GTX and Razzen - what are you talking about?
They're your best players.
Well it's your tournament and y'all can do whatever you want, but i'll keep saying we won. If your 'score system' says otherwise, it needs tweaking. :wink:
Also: i'd recommend the referee use words, instead of slashing people from a mount... i thought Beauchamp was trolling or bored or something. Never saw anything in chat, to be honest.
Keep in mind, chat scrolls up. You might need to repeat yourself once or twice...
Anyway, fun tournament. Good job on organising it.
The score system says otherwise because you went wrong in the Qualifying rounds where we barely lost someone and in the finals you went much better than us, so in fact the score system works fine.

I don't know if we'll come the next tournament as many of our members were quite unhappy with your decision.

@Bjord - Just because you are too lazy to read the rules of a tourny you play in doesn't mean Beau should make sure you know them. It's not hard to read the few lines in the OP. Ignorance is not an excuse.
Don't act like a prick. It will be damaging to the tournament, a major team not participating, and you (should) know that. Now get off your high horse and accept that.
My bad, I thought that was directed to me (no idea as to why). Sorry!It's obviously because you're used to hear people telling you that you're a prick :)
So am I lazy or ignorant? Which is it?
I'm talking about in-game. If we were doing something that was violating the rules, it would have been nice of him to formally inform us in the chat instead of a bump and a slash(which says nothing in manners of communication). Any other host would have issued a warning before the punishment. You don't punish someone and warn them afterward, this is not kindergarten - we understand words.
But it's all in the past. I'm sure everyone learned lessons from this tournament. We won't be punching anymore, and we'll be more apprehensive toward rules.It's not my decision. If majority of our members feel negative toward participating, of course we will not.
I'm not even on a horse. :lol:
My bad, I thought that was directed to me (no idea as to why). Sorry!
I just dropped into that tournament, we fought five battles and won them all nicely... three times we had a flawless victory even.... So i figure we won. :wink: That's all i'm gonna say about that.So you wouldn't mind me running inside during the fights, horsebumping people and killing the one who keeps score? Cause that wouldn't disrupt the event at all since we only need to look at kills right? Of course this would also apply if everyone did it too.
Now, please don't start insulting eachother. Nemeth, saying 'no offence' doesn't make it okay to call people idiots. I was there; we behaved fine and weren't disruptive at all.
I wasn't away of the punching rule. Nor did i punch anyone. However, i did slash at beauchamp when he rode in on his horse and slashed a teammate.
Also, you might have noticed i spawned with my horse a few times. Didn't know that was against the 'rules' either. Next time i'll walk. You can penalize us as much as you want though. Who cares anyway. :lol:
I'd recommend keeping tournaments simple and making sure the scores of the battles matter, not some administrative mumbo jumbo with points, referees giving penalties, etc. But that's just my 2 cents. Do whatever you want. I haven't read the scoring system though.

But you really don't have to wonder, why Mercs are in a tempered mood right now. We were trying to be calm about this, because we know, what we achieved, but seriously you can't ask us to be all nice if Razzen, Greifenherz and Thovex post such BS in their and our clanthread imho. I never thought, that you guys were as arrogant as to be proud of a victory, which you didn't really clearly earn. Ok, I might got carried away here, cus Berengar is being the biggest dick there.
Anyways, this matter can only be solved with a neat clan battle.
a new map would be also nice but so far nobody seems to be willing to spend any time on making it.
