Can the SquadLeaders think of a name for their squads please (if any of the SL's can't be the SL, please reply to the sended PM)?
People who's names are in orange, you might eventually switch teams. As previous tournaments have shown, there will allways be people who can't make the tournament or who are to wasted to play.
NOW 4 TEAMS, please check where I put you...
For now:
Team Blunt (5)
GRIM_REAPER, Benny, Marduk, Whitey, Luminance,
Team Dr_Sadako (5)
Sheepy, Bastet, killcrazy, K!LLA, Toxteh,
Team Squonk (5)
DarkAngel, sulky_uk, Mayhem, Jewelz, JB
Team JonnyAppleSeed (5)
Liberator, Bob, LeRouge, Arcticfire, DeadMike or me, DuVeL
Reserves: DeadMike, TeaLeaf
Looking forward to this one - gonna be fun :D
Will there be organized some time on the server where each team could have a small practice/tactic session, or do we just just straight to it?
I think I'll be happy as long as I can avoid headshot-ing any of my team mates :rolleyes:

I hope to have the maps to be definate really soon and that they will be added to the rotation then so people can have a look around (this has been done previous tournament aswell, some teams just went in straight in though).
About giving the teams names: As previous tournaments and to get a bit more of a team.
I haven't forgotten myself. If needed I can now stay online on MSN/mIRC/TeamSpeak/Xfire to help out behind the scenes and help out if needed.
OMG...
don't tell em your name Pike
Go Team Whitey!
teams look very even tbh :)

QuoteTeam Whitey
Toxteth, King, Arcticfire, Jewelz
That's not fair, that Toxteth is too good to play in this tournament! :flirty:
Teams do look pretty fair IMO, Go team whitey!
As soon as the maps are confirmed ill PM the winning team (mine) to see if we can get together ..our main tactic will be smoke and knife's with the odd tower of power thrown in to mix it up :norty: ..... I figure the more time we spend dead the more we will be able to drink (hik) :beer:
Quote from: JonnyAppleSeed;168614..our main tactic will be smoke and knife's with the odd tower of power thrown in to mix it up :norty:
Does that mean I should bring my feral gear or my resto gear :blink:
:flirty:
I don't even want to know what you're going to smoke... a kipper?
Or grass?
Ahwell:
The tournament will start 13.00 UKtime.
Chances are that I will be very hungover on the 27th. I will make the effort to try and drink still tho.
Are we going to need to be on IRC? or can we just wait around on the server till told where to go?
Quote from: Blunt;168529you lot better show up on Boomer in the next week for some praccy:sideways:
I'll pm you my mobile.
txt me when you are ready to go....
I'm due to drive back from Sheff on the 26th evevning, then my family are over the 27th, so should be able to squeeze in and out.
reserve bloke, fire me your mobile so I can prompt you if I'm screwed.

I've seen the tower and I know it's weaknesses, if witnessed we need to go in with a 'shower of sh1te' and we should be able to wash out the foundations. Failing that a simple 'Death from above' (only works on de_museum) or 'shoot them in the face' should work.

I was hoping I'd get a comment from one of the better teams :devil:
Teams have been changed to make the setup for the tournament easier!
There are now only 4 teams.
Will HLTV be running on the server so other teams can watch the matches being played?
:O Go Team Squonk! :boxing:
Quote from: killcrazy;169022Will HLTV be running on the server so other teams can watch the matches being played?
Ehrm, if you're in a team, matches are played at the same time :rolleyes:
But I believe it will be setup yes but à have no clue on how to do so.
For the SquadLeaders, do you guys have a team allready?
Or do you guys want me to ask Benny if he can use his dirty mind to come up with names? :norty:
afraid I'm going to have to drop out peeps (I was a reserve). We've been invited to relatives and SWMBO accepted before speaking to me :(

Unlucky Mike, thanks for the heads up though, appreciated!

Hellyeh, will make it more fun :dmw:
Can we have a ho-ho-ho sound uploaded to the server so that on every game start it will play? (idea shamelessly stolen from another server)
An example for a ho-ho-ho wav can be found here (http://ltrem1.tripod.com/xmaswavs.html).
All i want for christmas is youuuuu....no not really all i want is team whitey back!!!! :)

I don't want to be a game breaker but i don't think i will make it.:sideways:
My wife has to be operated and i have to babysit my two sun's.
So DuVeL if you can put someone else up for me.
Sorry guys we didn't thought my wife would be operated so soon.
Hope you can arage something.

Don't worry about the tourney - there are more important things in life (family). Hope everything goes smoothly with your wife's operation?

Sadako, we played that at the LAN and people got lost several times.
Whitey gave the suggestion to stick to office and nuke so I think I'll stick to those as everyone knows them.

The probelm with custom maps is that if one or two people have problems downloading/installing the custom map it can cause long delays. It wasn't so bad in the past as you could get the map downloaded by simply connecting to the server.
We had some issues during map testing and this made it clear that custom maps are a bad idea for something with so many people involved, especially when the maps have not been on the server/map cycle before.
Well put Whitey.
Whitey had the map easily, I've downloaded de_iceberg aswell but the wad-file gave problems.
could we please have a definative list of maps and download links if we need to dl some time today please?:)
