#ctfpickup are trying to organize a ctf league, they would like to see if there is enough interests from the players. Voting will be closed on November 24th
Should there be enough votes, a League or cup is planed in January 2015
love it how people who don't even play quake take their time to vote no :)
edit: as i said on irc channel, i'd prefer if it were a draft league. that way you don't have to care about having enough teams per division and what not, and basically would guarantee more activity.
If there wont be enough ppl for a regular league, why bother trying to start a nationscup?
And what if this vote ends with a positive score, doesn't mean we will get enough teams anyway. As far as I can see, right now you would gather about 2 Div 1 teams and maybe 3 or 4 Div 2 teams
Better some whines than a league between 2-3 teams or a nationscup between 3 nations.
I played 4 drafts and it was always fun, even when we got rekt by winz's team.
I would like to see more regular one-day-cups, be it drafts or be it team-tournaments.
Reasoning: Admins in hoq/cb/ba are working their asses off trying to reach each team or even member to get games played while those are procrastinating. Clans drop out cause they lose 1 single game or map pool isn't liked or 100 different crappy reasons. Some teams have 8+ players on their roster but take a wildcard as soon as they can't use their top lineup. Lot of activity is promised but not really held.
One-day cups could boost popularity/hype by ESR-news posts and communication in other channels like irc or ql forums. There's no need to use 8 players for a roster anymore and more teams could be featured - especially with a less conservative ruleset like alternative mappools, different tourney layout (Swiss system bo1 for example).
