you could bring you guitar and belt out some death metal britney spears

Shiminay

I've been working on a particularly interesting drone/doom soundscape concept of "Oops I did it again" which lasts 45 minutes and is a critical analysis of the pop industry...

Sir Digby Chicken Caesar

still sounds preferable to dubstep

Hi guys, bit of an update.

the venue is booked etc and everything is sorted for saturday night.

However, ill be working in cavan and i wont be able to make it.

So, vanyd/columC is going to run the show for the night, arrange the tournaments etc.

I bought some items for prizes, but i wont be able to bring them up, so ill hold onto them for the next tournament.

there will be cash prizes this time however. and since funky and khazidea cant make it, it looks like it could be very interesting to see who wins!

Ill be here all week, so if anyone has any questions, please dont hesitate to ask.

RM.

Khaz/Funky arent coming? really? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Also, what way will the prizes be split? "not all will go to the 1v1 winner"

I'd say 1st and 2nd place get a prize, maybe 3rd, if 30 people show up, then the pool will be €150, how about
1st €90
2nd €45
3rd €15

Seems like too much for second though, maybe 100/35/15?

BUT if there are already 30 signed up, plus i know 2 more of my friends who are coming and havent posted here yet im sure there will be more

100/40/20 in 1v1 and some to a FFA winner maybe? 20/40, if that many people come

Chicks

i think in irc he said something like a tenner each for whoever wins the 4v4 and the rest split between 1st and 2nd of the 1v1, but i don't think anything's confirmed yet..

PurpleFistMixer

I think there should be a starjewelled tournament and the winners (2v2 ofc) get all the money. *nods at Chicks*

RM.

I am insulted.

RoyalMarine

ok, an update on the prizes.

since its €15 per player to attend, and we pay XGC €10, that leaves €5 per player for prizes.

going on the numbers we have, lets say 30 people attend.
that leaves us with €150 for prizes.

I reckon we should do this.

4v4 competition.
€10 per player for the winning team. this can either be a monobattle competition, or just regular straight up sc2. the last lan we had a monobattle, and it went very well, lots of fun, and those who participated really enjoyed it.

1v1
€70 for the winner
€30 for 2nd place
€10 for 3rd place

Perhaps €70 for 1st
€25 for 2nd
€15 for 3rd

at least that way, 3rd place gets the price of the attending covered?

RoyalMarine

you could say the same for the 4v4 players in that case too.

Shiminay

MONOBATTLES!

Just a few things to nitpick about here.
The finals on scrap station? Theres a reason no tournament uses that map. It shouldnt be on the pool ,theres far better ones to choose from.

Also, bo1 for the 1st few rounds is pretty dodgy, unless your gonna do some sort of seeding, to ensure the best players dont knock each other out in the 1st round, and bad players can get further than they should.

Xios

Add to the list,

Brian,
Shane
Lucas

3 friends of mine, 2 prob need comps.

Yea last time scrap was meant to be the final too but we just agreed on a diff map since it's shite. I think he has a seeding system but not sure if it only counts people who've played at it before.
