A regular 5v5 CS tournament is always fun as well.

I think L4D could be done as a tourney, however it will take a lot of time even with a cup style tournament. The question is how much time we are willing to spend on it? Maybe it is better to just leave it for this LAN (tournament wise) and have it on the next when we have tried out maybe a ladder and or tournament until then?

CoD4 tournament is easy and quick to get going I think.
I remember at LAN V when we played BF Vietnam with two 15-20 player teams while singing "WAR! GOOD GOD Y'ALL! What is it good for!". Maybe trying out a large custom map for CoD4 and try that again.

Don't forget the racing tournament. Doorman?

COD is always better with small numbers on each side.

Yes I know. I don't mean for a tournament. I mean for singing.

No sorry mate. My wife is going away that entire weekend and I have to stay home with our son. However, I am still willing to help out as much as I can before the LAN.

Penfold · February 17, 2009, 10:12:07 AM

ok.

We've also toyed with this idea from Arm.

I know it's not the dMw-way but it may be a fun distraction.

Quote from: Armitage;258797Had an idea for a small tournament for the next LAN.

COD4 for free for all. Each table line plays a 15 minute free for all match (no air strikes or choppers) to find the best 6 Fraggers and they meet in the final. To Crown the LANs No1 Fragger. LANs equivalent to the Olympics 100m

im liking the scirmish idea for COD

also degal and cs are always not to much trouble - apart from raising my heart rate!

anouncments and draws over steak night again?

as a side note - registration for competitons, i want to make this self service - IE have lots of scraps of paper and a bucket for each comp - people scribble there name on a bit of paper and drop it in the bucket for each comp they want in on - saves me walking round the whole room asking everyone and making mistakes (sorry again pen)

Good idea but why don't we print the attendee's names out for each tourney and then give it to them to drop in themselves. might be a bit more legible.

God bless Sheepy but it was a bit chaotic last time. I couldn't read half the names he had written and in my defence neither could he :lmfao:

I was thinking of appending something on to the name cards - you know when someone does an advert in the newsagents and types their phone number on little tear off strips for people to remove? We could to that with the namecards. We'll add their name 4 or 5 times and they can tear them off and drop them in the relevant comp boxes.

Gone_Away · February 18, 2009, 10:08:46 PM

that's a fab idea...

Penfold · February 22, 2009, 08:06:14 PM

So we need to come up with a definitive list and also a running order for the w/e.

I can't remember - did we run anything on the Friday ? I'm thinking not but can't recall. we did try something on the Sunday but am not sure whether it's a go-er, people tend to up and leave.

Let's work on the premise that the comps run from 11am on the Saturday, we need a running order for throughout the day / evening.

Is anyone happy to come up with a draft schedule? :norty:

You can always use a previous schedule and change the games to suit
