OK, first off a big thank you to Sadako for pimping it in the forums and getting the idea for a repeat Tourney off the ground again.  We are still waiting for the final two slots to be filled, so bar any last minute tweaking to balance the team talent, the squads will be as follows:

Team 1: [ARM]
[ARM]Armitage (Squad Leader)
[ARM]Oldbloke
[ARM]JonnyAppleSeed
[ARM]FatBob
[ARM]Sheepy
[ARM]DeadMike

Team 2: [YunGunz] - apparently it's pronnounced young'uns
[YunGunz]Albert (Squad Leader)
[YunGunz]Gandalf-LordOfJelly
[YunGunz]Benny/Ninja_Freak
[YunGunz]Tox's dad
[YunGunz]Flibber Meister
[YunGunz]Rad_Man

Team 3: [aPe]
[aPe]JB (Squad Leader)
[aPe]Sadako
[aPe]TeaLeaf
[aPe]squonk
[aPe]MAD_ness
[aPe]DarkAngel

Team 4: -=[SaB]=-
-=[SaB]=- Smite (Squad Leader)
-=[SaB]=- Frenzy
-=[SaB]=- BlueBall
-=[SaB]=- DCG
-=[SaB]=- Dingo
-=[SaB]=- Tufty

Reserves:
Ninja_Freak
Ghost_Face_Killah

Squad Leaders have responsibility for choosing their squad's name,  preparing pre-game tactics and making all in-game decisions.  It is their squad and they are your leader :D  
Smite - you may NOT refer to your squad as your biatches, ok?  :wink:
SLs please let me know your chosen name and I'll edit this post accordingly.

All players should meet in quakenet IRC room #deadmen 15 minutes before the Tourney starts.  SLs should then open separate rooms for their own squad so that any last minute taccies etc can be discussed privately.  It is the SLs responsibility to make sure that all their squad members are present on the day.  When each match is due to start, it WILL start.  If you're squad is a man down it will make no difference other than you shouldn't expect to win  :wink:

Time-wise, for various reasons (like people disappearing when they should have been playing etc), the last Tourney ran somewhat akin to a Virgin inter-city train:- late...... very late.  We do not expect this Tourney to be anything like as drawn out as last time, mainly because we will be running matches on both servers simultaneously (so there will be no break between matches).  This means that it is important that you report promptly to the correct server.  When the server is clear of the previous match we will set a time for the match to start and we will stick to it!

When the final two places are taken this post will be edited to reflect the confirmed squads.  If you know another MeatHook regular who would like to play, then get on to them and get them to reply in the original thread here: http://www.deadmen.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?t=906
The choice of maps for the matches will be announced very shortly and inserted into this post, so that the SLs can get their taccies together  :D

Any Questions or Suggestions, please PM me.

Looking at the names listed above, none of the matches will be pushovers......so, GL & HF.

Just so you know, not all of the players will be changing their names for the tourney.  Those that will need to retain admin rights to set up the servers, restart rounds etc will need to retain their current name in order to retain their admin rights on the server.  If they change their name they lose admin rights!  So don't be surprised if one or two of the players leave their name as is.....

DarkAngel has been added to the list today.  We just need onemore to make sure that we have full squads.  

Reminder:  Dependent upon whom the last person is, we may have to tweak the teams to try to ensure the nest gameplay.  When we know the last person, I'll post up the final team sheets.

Ninja_Freak has been added as Benny's alternate, just in case the possibility of Benny getting a shag from his returning girlfriend actually moves from wishful-thinking into reality  :D   My money's still on Benny to be at the Tourney - she'll be on the blob, you mark my words.....

Reminder:  Squad Leaders - I need your names please..........speak to Smite if you need him to come up with a nice spray logo for your Squad for the tourney.....

And I still want an extra person for the Tourney, plus a couple on reserve peeps - speak now or forever hold your cod-piece.

Tufty has been added to the squad list - and that makes Smite's posse look a little bit intimidating now....in fact, they all look a bit intimidating!  Shoudl make for a good Tourney though  :D

/me still on the lookout for reserves!  Roll up, roll up.......

-=[SaB]=-DCG.Bitch
-=[SaB]=-Dingo.Bitch

Hehe, JB has taken up Sadako's challenge to lead [aPe] into battle, so he's been amended to Squad Leader.   As I am one of the minions in that team, I await your orders JB  :D   The only thing I am confident of at this point is that they probably won't take quite as long to understand :wink:

OK I need at least another 3 reserves please to ensure some contingency plans are in place.  

If you see anyone on the server who is a regular and who is NOT down for the tourney - ASK THEM TO PLAY!!!  At the very least they can get put down as a reserve!  Remember, not all players will have seen the forums as only a percentage are registered for them.  

In order that some of the reserves play, I may well sit the tourney out and just pop in and out of servers to check all is well.... we'll see how many turn up on the day first though.  So let's get pimping peeps!

Albert picked his squad name today.  Well, I say picked, but it was more like what he found left over at the end of a scrabble game.  :D

Only one more to go and we'll draw the squad matches out of the hat.

Oh bugger it.  I'll pick a name for Armitage's squad and do the match draw now. If he doesn't like it he can always give me a name himself  :D

I hereby pronounce Armitage's Squad's name as [ARM].

I'll go do the draw now.......
