East vs West Format & Discussion

Historical capture recovered from the Wayback Machine · captured 2013-02-12 · 42 posts
Beginning at 6pm PST, East and West Coast players will gather in server and voice comms until we determine team sizes and begin. East join STORM, West join INFERNO. One side will probably have more players than another, therefore the captain of the larger team will put extras in observer to be drafted pickup style. Teams will join their respective side after each map and the larger team will continue to bench their extras. Observers will be drafted, rinse and repeat.

If teams get too fucked, we can switch to a traditional PU or players can defect to meet a needed role if captains can agree.


----CAPTAINS----
EAST | GUNNAH & EFX
WEST | ENIGMA &
I’d like to get at least 2 people from each side willing to captain, please volunteer here.


----MAPS----
Centaur, Damnation, Harvester, Icedance, Massive, Mimicry, Mordacity, and Woodymyrk.

Is there anything we’re missing that is mirrored or very close to mirrored and doesn't play like ass?
-abaddon?


----Team Sizes----
As of this post, there are 43 people signed up for the 9th. Now I don’t expect everyone to show up but I don’t think 21v21 would be much fun and 4 teams of 10 would be a little too small. I had anticipated on playing 16v16max, but that does exclude 11 people that have signed up.

Discuss.

Just shuffle people around for the other maps so everyone gets to play. Assuming they all show of course.
SHOULDNT WEST BE ON THE LEFT SIDE???

I think it would be hilarious to play Recal with so many people, 1 cap win.

Anyways, I think we should play max whatever we have so we don't exclude anyone.

You are evil.
OK SO THIS IS GOING DOWN TOMORROW THEN?
That's the plan. I'll be coming back from the Hawks v Cards game, should be back before 6 pst. I assume there will be plenty of people on early to pimp it and remind bitches.

Damn right
Whats the pw to the damn server?!
This worked out better than I hoped. Even team sizes, close maps, and ran pretty quickly. GJ everyone

I'll be in an airplane next week, so someone needs to take the reins. Based on tonight, I would suggest we PU 1 map starting at 6 PST while everyone joins up and take it from there. It provided just enough buffer for west coast to show up.
Shit like this is more fun than constant tournaments.

Bigger teams, more good players per team, etc.

Higher level of play than over-diluted tourney teams fo sho.
I had fun, thanks for arranging this. KUDO's A+

Huh TS3 must not have been picking up everything I said, I swear I remember frantically yelling at you that Hotrod was coming up behind you before you got backlanced

It also took me like 2/3 of the map to think maybe I should try going to the other side instead of just running in to hotrod every time

TS3 was not picking up *anything* you said. I didn't hear your voice the entire time
prob for the best
I'm talking in the video, you prob muted me faG

Though I was quiet, it's exam period and I'm living on campus... I'd probably get in shit for yelling RAPERAPERAPRAPERAPE on vent.

helo

is this match still happening for the 16th?
yes
morgor, what wp u using? that allows u to know how many meters away players/flags are from u? also name, position of.
i want this plz
The massive video used buddypoints.
The damnation video used zz_waypoint.vl2, because it was a demo and buddypoints no likey.

I never noticed distance on players :0 but the flag always shows distance, works great for spam :]


ya, screenshot in link has teammates distance waypointed. this is what i'd like to have. so you're saying thats all part of buddypoints? https://www.dropbox.com/s/3j1fnqafysrws8t/Untitled1.png
