Hello there!

At #tdmpickup we would like to host tdm draft tournament series and we are looking for your opinion. The idea is simple: To create an automated tournament series where people of various skill get to play together.

Here are the details:

- one day draft tournament repeating every three weeks (depends on how popular it would be)
- suggested day/time is Sunday 18:00 CET
- tournament is completely automatic
- players register via our irc bot with their quakelive nickname, half an hour prior to the tournament
- the bot will create teams accordingly to number of registered players and their rating on #tdmpickup @ qlstats
- bot will decide the tournament layout according to the number of teams (playoffs/groups?)
- now it's up to players to host servers and start playing (some simple rules will be specified)
- we will try to provide some teamspeak/mumble server with number of channels, so people can use voicecomms during the game
- bot will auto-detect the results and fill up the playoff tree accordingly
- it's up to the players to finish the tournament.. in the end, no admin/supervisor should be needed
- teams/playoffs tree/results will be posted on a website by the bot
- requirement: players should play at least 5 matches on #tdmpickup, so the bot can distribute them by their (hopefully fair) rating


The question is now that if you would be interested in playing such tournament. Feel free to express yourself in the poll.
