QW 2on2, anyone?

Fobia

Right, I've briefly discussed this with Syxpak and we have agreed that instead of running the usual 1on1 qw tourni in which the more experienced players own and the newbies get knocked out in the first round or two, GLX will instead host a 2on2 tourni (with a league style like the one used in the cs tourni).

I am not going to try and organise this one in advanced, it simply didn't work last time and also I will be in Spain for 2 weeks prior to the lan. Instead I'd just like to get some idea of how many are in so that I can compare it on the day (people don't like walking over to the sign in desk to enter tournis ).

The tourni rules are as follows:

Good players will be teamed up with newbies (this will depend alot on whether mIXu and Mindphuck end up coming).

Medium players (tman, Syxpak, electrofelix etc) will be placed with other medium players.

custom textures are allowed but not fullbright ones, only ones that make it look cooler (the ones I used at the last one prior to the tourni shouldn't be used in this tourniment).

-ruleset smackdown does not apply, ye may use whatever options ye want for the tourni. I'll help anyone set up their config if needs be.

The tourni will have more emphasise on fun than competition, this isn't cs.

Why does everyone want to be with me? mIXu will be there ffs, mindphuck will be there, even people like SiN should be bagsied.

Thanks for the attention tho

It will be teamplay 2, you can indeed kill your opponent Caliden.

Anima

Dear lord......

tman

aye, i'd be on for some 4 way acshun.
just as long as my team mate isn't quetzal

Drake, Caliden, cop yourselves on.
This isn't the counterstrike board and no par-esque shit will be tolerated.

Swearing is fine when it's used to emphasise a point, add gravitas to a statement or make a nice strwaberry milkshake.

Random childish variations on "cock", "dick", "fuck", "shit", "YORE" or "MA" etc. will result in a kick in your arse.
And I've got big feet with steel-toe boots.

Put me down. Thx.

elexes

sin ? i think i bet him at one of them lans to get into finals against cloud but alas i had to leave so just told sin to play for me


in that case ill play with somone that will win ... drake come to the lan . we can bitch about quake and win the tourney ...

po0k

Alan's abandoning his gaming ways and fecking off into the sun.

Mmmmm.....skin cancer

Fobia

SiN has improved much since the times of gl6, I will be playing him for 20 euro on my best map and am not at all confident of winning .

Good to see this ammount of interest, I am formulating a list of names as we speak, I'll leave the team-making till the 2 days I have in Ireland prior to the lan when I'll be back from Spain.

back on topic.

so quakeworld eh??
16 bit graphics you say??
wow i say


any1 up for some real sports while we are there perhaps some rugby is in order, preferably touch-rugby as im quite brittle

po0k

24-bit quakiness.

32-bit colour is 24-bit actual colour with 8 alpha blending bits.

Re: real sports, a game of footie mightn't go amiss

Fobia

and custom textures make for non-browness, ye have no excuse.

DRakE

except that its a horrible game

Caliden

plus its full of config h4x0rz

Fobia

jesus caliden keep the cs talk to the cs forum ffs, what has that last post got to do with a 2on2 tourniment?

Caliden

well are configs like urs allowed? configs full of weapon bug exploits , ie quick switch.

Fobia

Aliases are allowed, as I stated in the first post of this thread.

Ronan|Raven

If it can be scripted without breaking any rules then do it. I used to have a heavily scripted TFC config, was great for switching weapons and adjusting FOV etc.

thats not cs talk..

Fobia

Exactly Ronan|Raven, the admins are hardly gonna kick you out of the lan for breaking a rule in a (fun) qw tourni, if ye want to be absolutely certain on the rules (if you are trying to make a wallhack or something), then the rules for this one will basically be the ones enforced for the upcoming duelmania tourniment (http://duelmania.quakeworld.nu), but without the -ruleset smackdown.

Remember people, it's for FUN.

why did you remove this command?

Fobia

a) Because if I had it on it would require telling everyone who's gonna play to insert it into their batch file.

b) Because it disallows cl_truelightning which I will be putting into the newb config to make it easier for them to lg, mainly the a) reason tho tbh.

nosmo

If I'm there, I'll be up for this

quetzal

Me too.

timeout

If this is just for fun then why call it a tourni?? generaly you're in a compitition to win not have fun, but I just enter for the fun.

What i would like to see is everyone with the same settup. not fair on amatures such as myself when the experienced player alters the game to take aadvantage of things i don't know about.

So would it be possible for all players to have the same install and config files???

Fobia

No, it is not. I will have a newb config available which takes advantage of all the visual settings available while keeping the controls easy.

You see Timeout, starters use the scroll button to scroll through weapons and use mouse1 to shoot. The next stage is binds, you can switch to rl, gl or lg by pressing a key while still using mouse1 to fire. The next stage (the last one in terms of configs, the stage I play at), is having a different button/key for every weapon, and it reverts back to sg after firing one (to prevent droppage of good weapons).

However, I'm always on hand to help, I will help setup anyone's config. You can use mine if you want, no problem, it'd just be hard for you to adjust to, although Caliden seems to be able to use the one I played with at gl9, so do whatever ye like tbh.

I'm the fat kid with long brown hair, you can't miss me.

que

P.S. It's a fun tourniment, as in, we'll play to win, but I don't want any whiners or being sad because their opponent made them lose etc etc. I'm gonna go with Doodee's idea of dividing entree's into 3 different groups, advanced, intermediate and newb. Then putting random advanced with newbs and intermediates with intermediates. I think it's the fairest method.

timeout

Ah ya the 14yr old that was at the last one right:)

tman

good god i hope i get to play against Fobia. you need to be taken down a notch, young feller me lad

Fobia

I'll look forward to it tman, but you have to wear the "I'm a n00b" hat after (not if!!! :P) you lose!
