i think top 4 should be bo5 and grand finals bo7

 

[ZealousD]

bo7 seems a bit like overkill to me. I'm not sure that we'd have that kind of time. That kind of matchup might last a couple hours.

bo5 would work better, add Scrap Heap and Metrapolis to the map rotation.

Yeah, I was thinking 4th would be Metalopolis and 5th would be Scrap Station.

yeah, my mistake. I copy and paste the previous post and make edits. Guess I just didn't finish the process this round. Names are fixed, now.

Yeah, I was. I got back a little afterwards, but you were offline by then. Wait, these games are due tomorrow at noon? Ugh I am incredibly busy tomorrow. What the hell are we supposed to do about this?

For some reason I thought we had another day to do all of this...

Bo5 only for the finals.

On that note, I was hoping that instead of doing the normal deadline system for the finals (determining the winner by coin toss would be pretty silly) that the two participants should agree on an optimum time and inform us beforehand so that we get as many spectators as possible on the last match. =)

Finals will be a Best of 5.

Map Rotation
1. Steppes of War
2. Lost Temple
3. Blistering Sands
4. Metalopolis
5. Scrap Station (or alternatively, Incineration Zone if both players agree)

 

[Meeru]

Checking in. This week..mainly available on Thursday afternoon/evening. I could do Wednesday but it'll be tight, like afternoonish. 2-4pm. Thursday will be better for me.

 

[Meeru]

What a sad, sad tourney :lol

 

[ZealousD]

Hey, its on your guys' heads now!

 

[FromTheFuture]

If you're able to do it today, I can fit in some time to just cram the games in. These two weeks are quite possibly the worst times this tournament could have gone on, or for me to do anything for that matter. I'm sorry guys.

 

[Meeru]

Sorry man I'm working right now. And I'm also going to go out of state with my gf and family to a cabin lodge. We should've just played and got over with it. Now you have finals to do with, and I won't be able to play till Tuesday.

 

[FromTheFuture]

My bad. We'll play it ASAP whenever you're available. I'll just make some time, let me know.

 

[Corran Horn]

We should setup Tourny#2 while you slowpokes figure this out.

 

[ZealousD]

I'm a bit hesitant to start another tourney. Blizzard might shut down the beta before we finish.

 

[Meeru]

Pretty sure we got plenty of time for another. It's not even open beta yet, plus we have soooo many more members now, should be awesome.

 

[Corran Horn]

I'm a bit hesitant to start another tourney. Blizzard might shut down the beta before we finish.

Set more of a time restriction, plus don't make a loser bracket, only a 3/4 place match. Should go by quicker I would think.

 

[ZealousD]

Has Blizzard ever done an open beta?

 

[Terproerg]

Another tourny would be great. Im up for one...just dont let me play at 2am :S.

 

[Hazaro]

I think there were 31,000 people online Saturday so it's pretty open already. :lol

 

[Meeru]

Has Blizzard ever done an open beta?

Yeah, they did with World of Warcraft

 

[Meeru]

Hey alumnus lets play our tourney now

 

[Meeru]

This really sucks. I tried messaging you several times today. Can you play tomorrow?

 

[Cheeto]
