The dMw CS:GO Xmas tourney will be held on Monday 28th Dec at 5.30 uk time. (The usual Monday evening slot).
Please sign up below if you'd like to take part and I'll update the list.
Teams will be sorted near the date, when we have an idea of numbers.
The comp will feature some xmassy maps and xmas versions of familiar ones and will be played on Boomer and Meathook.
Both servers will be passworded for the duration of the comp. and the PW will be posted here near the time.
It would be good if you could also join Teamspeak so you know which server/team you are on.

Ranks are irrelevant, we'll be seeding people ourselves to balance the teams.
Why wouldn't i wanna play? i am down for it. shouldn't be too difficult ;)
Yeah please, only if i'm on UNI's team, he loves me ;)
I'll grab a mince pie and see you through my scope! Count me in ;D

If the outlaws have left by then then I'll be up for some R&R. I'm 93.756% sure they'll be gone.
I'd welcome the opportunity to become fodder for the enemy and look forward to the experience (again)!
Sign me up Bluntosaurus.
Oh go on then*
(*weather permitting)
I'll join
Me and my scout* are in.
* Aim maybe off due to large amounts of cider. Maybe it'll be better, who knows?
blunt can we make this comp a bit more interesting ? for those who want to
Mind if i give it a go?
Are non-members invited? If so, I'd love to please!
Also I agree with RogueTaylor that this could be spiced up a little, for those who'd like.

You're welcome BH, it's for forum members and server regulars :D
Let Swiggs know too please.
What exactly needs spicing up?
all i said was make the game more interesting, a simple gamble for those who are interested in it you don't have to but if you win then at least you win something ?
we don't have to if you don't want to but was an idea i had when i was at work lol
Yeah sorry bad phrasing, no spice is needed! I just meant chipping in for a prize for the best team or something.
Quote from: Bellowhead;406982Yeah sorry bad phrasing, no spice is needed! I just meant chipping in for a prize for the best team or something.
Yeah, I'll throw all my crates in :P
sign me up!
I will say what I was thinking and I will say this now and again I imagine when I am explaining, this is only for those who WANT to do this.
I was thinking we all put up a skin not our best because it's suppose to be fun but maybe a purple at max, and the rules of this can be this:
Each person who wants to puts up a skin, this will be a skin of your own choosing either blue, white or purple but then you can only win then same colour that you put up so for example me, Blunt and peanut are on the team. We have won the comp and now get to collect our award. I had put up a purple skin, blunt put up a nice blue and peanut ...ow peanut only put up a white skin. In total 10 skins were put into the pot 3 purples including mine, 4 blues including blunts and 3 whited including peanuts. Well I because I put up a purple get to take all the purples, blunt takes all the blues and peanut takes all the whites for his collection. Each person can put up one skin, this is to keep it simple and to see how it goes the first time. We each write Down what we are putting up for the gamble and then we can either trade them to one person and they keep hold of them ( like blunt... If you trust him :P ) once the comp is over then they are given to the winner team and who ever put up a gamble. If a team wins and only two people gambled an they only gambled 2 blues then the purple skins go back to the original owners.
So interested in what you think and any questions or anything I didn't put in or explain please say :D

I got no skin, so im in :P
Quote from: Arcticfire;406997I got no skin, so im in :P
As long as a you have a skin to gamble then your fine. But if you don't have a skin to gamble then I am sorry to say you can't join in, it's simply gamble a skin to get some skins back :)
To be honest, it's hard enough to organise a tournament as it is.
If you wish to bet skins, then you'll have to do it amongst yourselves.
As long as it doesn't interfere with the tournament or fill TS or in-game comms with chatter.

I think that's fair enough, the only thing I was thinking when I said mentioned it was that you probably have enough on your plate!
Rogue, maybe a separate thread for people interested? I think people would (hopefully) be trust-worthy so we could just send our skin directly to the winner rather than a single holder. Then there won't be a week delay etc on the trades.
I'm happy to be the one to keep track of the pledges.

I wont be joining this time but I hope I can make a slight remark on this; I see so many first posts of players who want to join on this, why haven't you taken the time to introduce yourself to our community while it seems you have been playing on our servers for a while?
We are a good bunch, it's nice to know who plays on our servers and such.
Just wondering...:g:
EDIT: As said: No pun intended but just wondering why people haven't been taking the time to register to our forum and properly introduce themselves.

The cs:go forum isn't particularly active (neither is the forum as a whole imo) so I think people just see that and don't see much to get involved in tbh.

ooh - I might just be able to make this for once! :yahoo:
Teams of 10 at this rate. Great sign ups
If there's still room, I'd like to join.
Start time is being brought forward to 5.30 in order to get all games played in a reasonable time.
Teams will be seeded and sorted in the next few days.
Still room for joiners, and we'll try to accommodate last minute joiners as well if possible. Don't be shy.
Sign me up then! :-P

I won't be able to make this. Stick me on a list of reserves and if I am about I will take a space if someone drops out.
Sign me pls!

5:30 will be too early for me. I will be on later so might be able to fill a hole somewhere.

Unfortunately I can no longer make this due to family traveling plans. Hopefully that frees up a slot for someone else.
Have fun all!

@Jamoe pnuts has a hole to fill

That's 40 so 8 teams of 5
no doubt some will forget to turn up so there's always room for a few more.
It's never to late to join in, we'll squeeze you in somewhere even if it means some team will have 6 players.
Can't wait for this and to see the lucky team I am with haha should be a good evening
Quote from: Blunt;407780That's 40 so 8 teams of 5
At Blunt's request, we have spun up 4 new 128 Tick servers via an external host to ensure performance will be first class.

Ah... I'm not around until half past 6 - will all the games be played concurrently?
One day to go people!
When will we find out the teams?
Quote from: TheSwiggsScenario;407824Ah... I'm not around until half past 6 - will all the games be played concurrently?
No idea at the moment, and quite commonly there might be a sub available if your match is earlier than you get home, you can just swap in for them when you get here. I am sure Blunt will roll out the details sometime beforehand. Just get home quickly!

I will also type into the steamgroup chat, so join that too.
Password for the servers will be "dMwXmas" (without the "")
Any problems, give me a steam message, ask in TS or ask here.
If you haven't put your name down yet, don't worry, just turn up and we'll get you a place.
Some muppets will forget and we'll need you!

Pesteh is barred from the AWP right? :narnar:
Damn my plans have changed, now visiting my mum due to her being unable to travel so not really sure when I'll be back. :(
No probs Jamoe, drop by even if you're late, see my last line above :P
Guys, I'm really sorry but I've been seconded to wife related duties under threat of death along the lines of "get your @rse off that bloody computer" so I really can't push my luck and play tonight. Apologies for the late notice, the warning signs arrived via argument last night.
sorry team two, will try my best at this. if we go out in the first round i will buy who ever goes to the lan a drink ( that's in team two). uni might be able to make it but will have to see.
Guys if you'd like to pre-emptively name team 6 the winner then we would completely understand ^_^

Awesome. Only thing is I've gotta pick up my gf from work round 7.15 may have to take a 10 min break if possible.
Addx9 is going to try and make tonight, however he says he may not get back in time because of the flooding.
Quote from: Jewelz^;407924what maps are we playing/how will maps be decided?
It would be pretty cool if we could do picks/bans. I assume it's active rotation maps?
Quote from: PaddyFHS;407939Addx9 is going to try and make tonight, however he says he may not get back in time because of the flooding.
That's great paddy.
Maps will be standard with a twist :devil:
Can't do pick/ban sorry, makes it too complicated for us. you'll have to play what you get.
Are we going to do any awards? Best player, team MVP, etc?
I am going to be streaming the games my team play in the tournament over at my twitch channel. http://www.twitch.tv/stewie184 . come join and have a laugh if you want i will be going live a bit before. If we play against you though please don't use it to know what we are doing and for you to be able to win, that will not be a fun time D:
Many thanks lads, have a good day of cs
Looking forward to the tournament :D
What time is this starting 5.30 or 6.30?
i believe it said 6:30 to start the games
Yeah there have been a few posts about it now and just want to know when I should head home for 5 or 6
I would like to play if its possible

:sad: one team mate down, I guess he didn't want to be with me ... Don't blame him tho haha :narnar:
I wouldn't worry, there's usually some last minute cancellations and some last minute additions, all of which Blunt loves to juggle on the night!

Most of your praise should be directed towards pesteh.
We got the servers at pretty short notice, and he knocked them into shape.
True to say, it really wouldn't have been much of a tourney without pesteh.
But he still smells :P
Quote from: Blunt;407994But he still smells :P
Hahaha he sure does, and he is a big slag, but he is our slag :D
thanks for the organising of it blunt and pesteh!! great games tonight!! i had a blast the first was unfortunate but the second made up for it THANKS TEAM 2 had a blast
Well at least we lost to the overall winners. Apologies to my team, I was a bit like a rabbit in the headlights, not played CS for ages and things have changed a lot. I couldn't find the slippers!
Thanks for organising this Blunt and pesteh.
had fun last night! Thanks Blunt and Pesteh!
Congrats to the winners, sounds like a great tourney, shame I couldn't join in.
I guess minimi turned them off ;)
Great fun thanks to all the organisers!
It was fun, so thanks to the organizers!
Thanks everyone, and gg, it was a good'un.
I have recorded a few clips of the evening (mostly the parts where I failed, but some of our team's highlights too) - I can post the links if you wish.
Yeah put them up swiggs
Thanks to the organizers it was a good night I really enjoyed it
Should probably take the time to apologize to my team in case I got a bit grumpy towards the end. :( I didn't think I would be in it so long so had nothing to eat and was starving.
