Huge Multi-Clan-Team Tournament: Discussion.

[Beauchamp]

it will be extremelly difficult if not impossible to control whether 25 percent of players have horse, ranged wep and what kind of armor among such a huge number of players and teams.

[SchokoSchaf]

I don't think it would be impossible, to back up me words, I'll offer to help with the organizing/controlling (provided I'm not at work, since you haven't set a date yet).
Our clan will most likely have more than 5 players but not 10 for sure, so I'll can make myself useful as well.
Other question - lightly related - can you switch the active players and substitutes between rounds? So lets say Member A plays 5 rounds, then swaps with Member B?

As such I see no problem with this. However it may cause an organizational nightmare. What if members are different classes with restrictions?
What if he forgot to spawn etc.

If you plan to do so agree before hand how it is going to work and clear it with the team commander.

@Beauchamp: I don't think so if people follow the rules and stand still or move to their corner. It will take like 1 min.

§6: Battles will take place on either Fridays, Saturdays or Sundays.

I think you're making a skewer while your rabbit is still hopping around the woods.

I cannot sign up my clan if we don't even know how many of these matches will there be and on what day of the week will they happen. If it's sunday you can sign us up for 10 people but if it happens to be friday or saturday evening i don't know if i can field even 5 men, and signing up for something if I'm not 100% sure that i will be able to attend it is just not my sport. I think we need more details before we can sign up with correct numbers or a good part of people who signed up will not show up.

I second that, give us more details on date/time before the sign-up close please.

[okiN]

Yeah, we Varangians have got the recommended seven signups ready, but of course it's impossible to know how many of them can actually make the battles until we have more info. Depending on how many signups you have by next week it might not be an issue, but it's possible there will be a drop in player count when the dates are set.

(moved those last two posts to discussion topic)

[Tristan]

So you suggest that we just go ahead and say a date and time for all matches allready?

I can definitely see the merit in that!

You think it is possible to have two teams fight at the same time? We have servers enough for that?

I would suggest something along the lines of:

Option 1:

(click to show/hide)

Team 1 vs. Team 2 = Sunday the 26th of June 18.00 GMT (20.00 CET)
Team 3 vs. Team 4 = Sunday the 26 th of June 18.00 GMT (20.00 CET)

Team 1 vs. Team 3 = Sunday the 3rd of July 18.00 GMT (20.00 CET)
Team 2 vs. Team 4 = Sunday the 3rd of July 18.00 GMT (20.00 CET)

Team 1 vs. Team 4 = Sunday the 10th of July 18.00 GMT (20.00 CET)
Team 2 vs. Team 3 = Sunday the 10th of July 18.00 GMT (20.00 CET)

nr. 1 & nr. 4 vs. nr. 2 & nr. 3 = Sunday the 17th of July 18.00 GMT (20.00 CET)

Option 2:
The same as above but on saturdays

Option 3:

(click to show/hide)

Team 1 vs. Team 2 = Saturday the 25th of June 18.00 GMT (20.00 CET)
Team 3 vs. Team 4 = Saturday the 25th of June 18.00 GMT (20.00 CET)

Team 1 vs. Team 3 = Sunday the 26th of July 18.00 GMT (20.00 CET)
Team 2 vs. Team 4 = Sunday the 26th of July 18.00 GMT (20.00 CET)

Team 1 vs. Team 4 = Saturday the 2nd of July 18.00 GMT (20.00 CET)
Team 2 vs. Team 3 = Saturday the 2nd of July 18.00 GMT (20.00 CET)

nr. 1 & nr. 4 vs. nr. 2 & nr. 3 = Sunday the 3rd of July 18.00 GMT (20.00 CET)

I don't know how to make a vote. Can someone help me?

i suggest you do this

Team 1 vs. Team 2 = Saturday the 25th of June 18.00 GMT (20.00 CET)
Team 3 vs. Team 4 = Saturday the 25th of June 19.00 GMT (21.00 CET)

Team 1 vs. Team 3 = Sunday the 26th of July 18.00 GMT (20.00 CET)
Team 2 vs. Team 4 = Sunday the 26th of July 19.00 GMT (21.00 CET)

Team 1 vs. Team 4 = Saturday the 2nd of July 18.00 GMT (20.00 CET)
Team 2 vs. Team 3 = Saturday the 2nd of July 19.00 GMT (21.00 CET)

alot smarter in my opinion ....
(this is only for option 3 )

[Tristan]

Yes... A bug. Edited thx Electro...

[Tristan]

Reset the poll and added three new options.

It might be necessary to do so in order to get judges, servers etc.

[Tristan]

By the looks of it we are going for Sundays at 18.00 with two battles running at the same time.
However, if we cannot get servers &/or referees for this we will be running first match at 17gmt and second match 19gmt.

I would like each clan to specify before Sunday if they join with 10 or 15 now that the match date are known.

[krampe]

Btw what about midgame "classchange" ? Like picking up a xbow or mounting a free horse concerning the class limit?

You can take loot from friends and enemies when they are dead and keep it for that round. For next round one must have the original equipment agreed upon.
That also means that you ranged char cannot bring two bows and ask a two hander to take some arrows etc.

You guys really need to record this, Sign up RipperX!

[okiN]

Tru dat.
