Extract the folder to Documents/Battleforge/

Please test if the maps are accessible for you before the tournament. Use the bracket list in Challonge to contact other participants if you need help (or contact me).

 

Organisation?

The streaming channel that will be covering the tournament is DasToggy on twitch.tv .

In case of problems contact me or one of my mods via Discord or Battleforge.

A list of tournament mods and organizers: DasToggy, Karlmann

 

Rules!

-No bugabuse, cheating or insulting the other players. Penalties may vary from a warning to default loss.

-Disconnection during a game results in a default loss. If both sides agree it is possible to have a remake.

-Not showing up to your match with after 15 minutes results in a default loss. The plan is to play a round of matches every ~30 mins.

-After your match go to Challonge and insert the result. That is done by clicking on your match and selecting the winner/stats . The brackets will be updated automatically.

-The Map Pool is: Haladur, Simai, Elyon, Lajesh, Uro and Wazhai (same pool as in ranked duel). The first match of the round will be played on Haladur, then it is losers choice. Second round will start with Simai, third one... you get the drill.

 

So again in short:

-Decide to play and register for the Tournament in Challonge, please use the "Sign in with alternate Name" feature if your Challonge account does not match your Battleforge name.

-Download and extract the community observer maps.

-Be online before 4pm CET on 09.02.19 and contact your enemy, invite him into a party and then host the first map (Haladur) and play the match. Then the loser picks a map of the pool above, play that. Repeat until one player has 2 wins. If you are not able to contact your enemy and he is not contacting you, proceed as if you have won.

-If you win, go to Challonge and confirm your win and update the bracket. It will show your next enemy. Save the replay of the match.

-Contact your next enemy, invite him to a party and then host (Simai/Elyon/loser's choice/...). Repeat until you are in the finals and do not start without me.

-Winner and Losers finals will be all played on stream. Communication will be via Battleforge, the stream and Discord.

-Win the tournament and eternal glory. Also some BFP and maybe cards.

 

Reply in this thread if you have questions, I will check it out later. This was a lot of text but as described under "So again in short" it is not a lot of work.

I would love to see this community grow again and the competitive scene develop aswell. Also I want to see RadicalX beaten :-) .

Please recheck this thread before the tournament in case the map pool, rules or staff/mods will change.

 

Best regards,

DasToggy

Ooops a little mistake on my side, should be correct now. Of course it is the same day since none of us has a time machine. If you do call me ;-)

By the way the seeds are not fixed yet for the tournament brackets. They will be shuffeled right before the tournament start so it is no use to wait with your registation to dodge a certain opponent.

Greetings,

DasToggy

Hey man,

It is still open there should not be any problems. Create a Challonge account and then hit the "Sign Up" button should work. If it doesn't I will help any last minute participants around 15:30 to join the tournament.

See you all later on stream...:hype:

I have created and account, verified it and i cant press Sing Up button because there is no that button. There is only: logs, discussion, ranking and bracket. There is no option to sing up;/

The  =>LINK<= posted above should get you to the signup page

 

 

If this still is not working just contact me via Discord and I will walk you through.

Greetings,

DasToggy

Challonge.com has a "check-in" option. I think it could be good to do the next tournament with Check-In so there wont be any waiting for players who signed up ages ago but had no time in the end. 

For example on this past tournament i signed up, but haven't checked in, so im not in the grid. 
This should make the tournament even smother and there would be less waiting times for missing players.

Hey Taker,

I know about this option and i thought about using it. Last tournament we had 24 participants and of those 2 players did not play. I wonder how many will fail the check-in even though they want to play. So yeah it is a good feature fi used correctly by everyone but I really doubt that :D . So if it is only 1-2 players not showing up that is not a big deal compared to the chaos of explaining how to check in again. But maybe I will try it in the future if everyone is a lot more familiar with Challonge.

 

Greetings,

DasToggy
