Title: Dodgeball Tournament
Post by: nonSENSE on August 03, 2015, 01:51:37 AM
Dodgeball Tournament
The dodgeball tournament will start on Sunday August 9th at 18:00 CEST.
Tournament format
Teams of 4 players
Single elimination bracket - 2 teams play each other, winner advances, loser is out
Maximum of 8 teams
First team to win 10 rounds wins
We will (depending on the number of teams) play matches on 2 servers simultaneously.
What is dodgeball? Watch this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tr7z9U0L7ao (or the original tf2 version https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JUZOGnxuXeI) Deflect incoming rockets with right-click to make them fly to the enemy team. Get hit by a rocket and you lose health. If all players on a team die, they lose.
Dodgeball changes Since the last version of dodgeball was run on our servers, some things have changed:
Any stats (movement speed, max hp, hp regen, resistances, etc...) from items are disabled.
Stats on dodgeball weapons (blasters) are also disabled
Only the default blaster will be available during the tournament
Prizes Will be announced later
How do I sign up? Post in this thread. 1 post per team. I need the following info:
Team name:
Players: (Name & SteamID)
Deadline for the signup is Tuesday August 4th 18:00 CEST. The bracket will be announced shortly afterwards.
When can we test dodgeball? I am aiming for a release roughly around the time the signup deadline ends.
EDIT: Reduced number of rounds needed to win to 10!

Due to a minor mistake with me being able to tell the time this post has been created 2 hours late but that's not a problem as no one has posted in the past 2 hours - The signup period is now closed! Our final 6 teams are as follows:
1. $XC MONEEEY$ - Fabio, HutchieHutch, Tim Allen and Daffy, 2. Bad News - Ze-Neko-Noney, Queen of Britland, Crushablenewt and Hero_Elementz, 3. MemeTeam - Max, Lazyronda, Master Mark and Unknown 4. Dodgeball Champs (Fitting name!) - Slycoops, Accelerator, 2Kawaii4u and Snoop 5. Kool Kawaii Kuties - Boop, sCy, Snowi and Tsor 6. Team Badmin - Cosco24, Stebbzor, Jetuser and Blh!
The Dodgeball server is now open which means you should be on there practicing, I'm sure you'll be able to grab the IP from someone in the community. Personally I would have loved to have taken part in the tournament but I wasn't able to find a team in time :( (I appreciate the offers however!)
I'm sure we'll get an amazing result from these teams as they all battle it out on Sunday, I anticipate a very bloody but organised and civilised tournament! I'm going to lock this thread now as the signup period has ended and we are awaiting news from nonSENSE with the brackets - the thread may be unlocked if need be.
