If only STF characters are allowed, how are you going to monitor who's in what clan?Not only are name changes logged, we can easily see all the characters tied to any specific account as well. We'll be doing this when we check to make sure characters are actually STF and not of some other type.
- Each team may only consist of maxmimum three players from the same clan.
My only question and some thing that arose last night while discussing Tizzango's team, he must have 5 or so Fallen on his team, but claims half of them are not Fallen because they don't have the tag.
E.g. himself, Jtobiasm and Darmaster.
What are the rules concerning this, it is well known these members are part of Fallen put they argue they are just 'banner leechers' and are in fact not part of the clan.
Each team may only consist of maxmimum three players from the same clan.
How is going on with the Prize? Is the Price for the Team or for every player once?Every player in the team gets the prize when the following condition is complied:
If someone has a hunting crossbow and a DGS, is he/she being count as melee or ranged? RangedOnce you bring a ranged weapon, you are now a ranged character.
If ranged, wouldn't everyone grab Hunting Crossbows or throwing knifes to get more infantry? No, because throwing is a ranged class.
Or are these events made so that if you currently reside in EU, you can only participate in EU tournaments, and if you live in NA, you can only play in NA tournaments?This is the preference since only 16 teams are allowed into the Group Stage. I know NA has a few EU players who play mostly NA and are even a part of an NA clan. In this situation, I see no reason why they shouldn't be able to play with a team from the opposite region. What we don't want though, is to allow entire teams of NA players taking up team slots on EU, and vice versa.

NA will have their own tournaments, we're just delaying everything by one week.
What about this:
I get 8 mercs.
5 of them leave merc (1 second before the matches start).
I now got no more then 3 people of the same clan!
Great plan, but like tydues said, he is checking the logs and characters.
Once you bring a ranged weapon, you are now a ranged character.

So it is allowed to get a full infantry team, but only cavalry and ranged are restricted.Thx.
Thing is you could have 3 infantry and 2 "ranged" with a hunting xbow, no bolts, and melee weapons, which would technically count as ranged but effectively be infantry (with one less available slot)
@Bagge and tydues.
Is there going to be a rule where only the dedicated range player can loot. Like there was in the Clan league?
[...]...and dying off one by one from headshots cuz the enemy ranged isn't pressured nor endangered by the berserk team :P
(Could be fun to see full inf berserk team charging)
...and dying off one by one from headshots cuz the enemy ranged isn't pressured nor endangered by the berserk team :PExactly! :)
When will this tournament take place ?
during the week or on weekends?

Great rules, just some questions if i may cos you know how our community loves loopholes xD
1. Is loomed gear allowed? For me this comes under the same category as STF so i assume it's not but is there a ruling?
2. For 'ranged', do crossbow hybrids count? Cos presumably 2 players could just bring crossbows and join melee as a 5-man melee blob.
Builds should be checked. I think ranged should be restricted to max 50 wpf in a melee proficiency
I think throwing should count extra since otherwise it would never be used in a tournament.2 archers or 2 cav for 5vs5 ?
teams should be like this
max 2 ranged
max 2 cav
max 3 infantry but one of the infantry can be a inf/throwing hybrid
Bring back the 3 clan mates rule.
really, throwing should have a different rule or you wont see a single thrower in this tournament
The thing about throwers in cRPG is that they are used as a ranged class, a shotgun class kind of. Most of the throwers play like Mendro or Godwin. Are you telling that they are even close to melee? :P
How can they understand that u have like 16k or 17k ; i dont really think that they can check everyone's items one by one.(click to show/hide)
15.3~, am I allowed to use this set?
FUCK, This post was meant for the 1v1 tournamet!
Thanks for the response, sorry for posting in the wrong thread, not used to having so many different topics like this xD
Point 2 is really good, i like that there will be a human element to look into blatant abuse of the rules. Common sense rulings i guess.
Though i'm not sure allowing loompoints is consistent with the spirit of only allowing STF characters, i know it'd be harder to regulate, but a full set of loomed armour is a significant advantage, and not one i have the luxury of xD
Are you planning a tournament after this one with main character allowed ?
Also, will future "non official" tournaments (ex : Fallen League ) be rewarded by official rewards, or is it like before if it's not sponsorised by devs or the event team ?Can't say I have an answer for that, since that question has never come up in our discussions (chadz gives the final 'OK' on all of these things.) Not that I want to keep Fallen or anyone else for that matter, from hosting their own events, but is there anything to be gained by hosting additional tournaments on non wse2 servers? The idea, is that there would be no reason to even think about hosting events elsewhere.
[...]That of course means too that we might support you with man power. Meaning helping out as referees, in the organization or - my speciality - making it public with proper advertisement across the EU server. :D
If you have an event prepared or are thinking about preparing an event, let us know. Send Nessaj, Bagge, Molly or Tuetensuppe or myself your ideas and what you've prepared so far, and if it's clear your serious about hosting the event, we'll attempt to figure out a way to get it to work on the official event servers.
Matches will be 5-a-side, the team may only use a maximum of three infantry, two ranged, one cavalry and one horse ranged.
Throwers counts as ranged.
Horse Ranged counts as both cavalry and ranged.
Once you bring a ranged weapon, you are now a ranged character.Matches will be 5-a-side, the team may only use a maximum of three infantry, two ranged, one cavalry and one horse ranged.
Can we please remove the maximum cap for infantry? For ranged and cav I can understand the cap, but I fail to see the reasoning behind this.The rule is in place to give dedicated archer/xbower a slot in the teams and a chance to participate. Otherwise there might be an exclusion of ranged players. I remember Bagge answering that particular question somewhere in more detail. Please have a look around if my answer is not satisfying as explanation.
I'm a tad confused, you're saying I can go my normal 18/21 shielder build and bring rocks and be counted as a RANGED class? What is the purpose of limiting infantry.. To what length will you be considered ranged? Also obvious macroing?Yep, stones are a throwing weapon and it would be a ranged character. I am unsure about smoke bombs tho :P Everything thrown or shot is classified as "range".
A player in the team has to be apart of at least 50% of the matches in order to get a prize.
Also this rule, why would anyone join a team of 5 if they know they won't start?
I see (and maybe other scrubs) no chance in winning a matchup, since every team is gonna be a sweaty nerds who clear the opposing team within seconds if they're up against people with less than 2 yrs experience in this game :|
You could bring loomed items, right? A team then could go full loomed tincan and not get a scratch from most weps..
People might say; ''Yeah, but you do it for fun!'' no. theres no fun in getting wrecked by shielders like Cyber and HX like Love_More.
And will there be a good spot for people to see the fights? A tribune or somt.(click to show/hide)
Any restrictions on equipment or gold, on a STF character?
No
No
Really? Then what is keeping people from going full loomed tincan? As archer you have almost no chance against that!
Really? I disagree. Easy headshots, friend.
Not if they have shields :DThat`s why maybe one of your teammates could bring an big ass axe instead of a boring greatsword, right? :P
Not if they have shields :D
Not if they have shields :DYou clearly dont know this mod.

Are the submittions still open?If yes my clanmates are forcing me to create a team ..
group matches will be played as best-of-one. then who chooses that one map ?
Group matches are bo3 and are chosen by bagge.1.1 Group stage
Ahh I thought it was bo3, bo1 for groups is kinda gay.
It's best of one match right? (12 rounds, 1 map)
Since my connection is shit I cannot stream myself, it's up to someone else to do it
Why don't you record since you seem to want it Knitler? Or is it too much of a responsibility to bear?
So why does bagge have to do it with 15fps cause of low uploadspeed?
Byzantium team wonHow? :o
