    Hi all

    Myself and Vagga have got our sh1t together at last and done up some ideas for the UT competitions @ DubLAN... Here are the compos we have in mind, and the draft rules. It would be cool if people had a clue what they want to compete in BEFORE they arrive, t'would make my life easier anyway smile.gif

    Send me your comments on this... it's your LAN party, let me know what YOU want!

    I figure we should have....

    1) A CTF/DM/DOM Clan Tournament

    2) A duel tournament

    3) An Instagib/LoGrav duel tournament

    4) An FFA compo - 8 people in a round, top 3 (or whatever) qualify to
    the next round.

    And rules for the above:

    1 - THE CLAN CTF/DOM/DM TOURNAMENT

    a) The Admins (Vaggabond and Shinji) have final say in everything.
    Everything, I tell you!

    b) Clan matches are played over 3 levels. Each clan selects a level, and
    the third is drawn out of a hat containing all the remaining levels.

    c) The duration of each match is 15 minutes, thus an entire clan war
    will take 45 minutes. Highest score at the end of the level wins that
    level.

    d) Victory is decided on number of levels won. Frag count, capture count
    and DOM Point-count are not considered.

    e) The teams will be entered into the table at random on the day. No
    "seeding" will take place. Tough draw? Tough tittie.

    f) Normal size for a team is 4 players. If both teams agree, 5 players
    may be fielded.

    g) Settings will be: Speed 100%; Air Control: 35%; Game Style: Hardcore;
    Weapons Stay: Off; Tournament: On; Team Damage: 20%


    2 - THE DUEL TOURNAMENT

    a) The Admins (Vaggabond and Shinji) have final say in everything.
    Whatsoever. We rock, you know.

    b) The 3 DM maps in the demo are eligible for this tournament (DM
    Morpheus, DM Tempest, DM Phobos)

    c) Each player selects a level, which is played for 10 minutes. Frag
    counts over the two levels are added up to ascertain the winner.

    d) Players are entered at random into the table on the day.

    e) Settings will be: Speed 100%; Air Control: 35%; Game Style: Hardcore;
    Weapons Stay: Off; Tournament: On;


    3 - THE INSTAGIB DUEL TOURNAMENT

    a) This is run exactly the same as the Duel Tournament, except with the
    Instagib and Low Gravity mutators enabled.


    4 - THE FREE FOR ALL COMPETITION

    a) The Admins (Vaggabond and Shinji) have final say in everything. You
    betcha.

    b) Everyone interested in entering is sorted into "heats" of 8 people at
    random.

    c) They play one 20-minute game on a randomly selected DM map. The top 3
    players proceed to round 2. In order to make round 2 matches up to 8
    players, if necessary, the highest-scoring non-qualifying players from
    the previous heat will qualify. In the event of a tie, kill:death ratio
    will be taken into account.

    d) Settings will be: Speed 100%; Air Control: 35%; Game Style: Hardcore;
    Weapons Stay: Off; Tournament: On;

    Worry about yourself matey, I have a tendancy to run around with 6 rockets loaded 'just in case'. smile.gif Having TD off is standard for CTF games, with the exception of Tribes of course - but that was 'different'.

    Turn ON weapon-stay also, CTF without weapon-stay is totally naff - it's a completely different game if you have most of your team standing around with pistols cos noone can get a weapon.
