Looks like you guys finally found a date on which I can attend!

Now you have no excuses!

Time will tell, I already encountered a minor problem, but that might be a problem if I reach finals and it is like super delayed ^^

It's a swiss format so everyone plays the same amount of games (unless you are in the top 2) :P

ah thanks, was already wondering what it was lol. However I guess I am still safe to play ;)

.

man, I'd love play these :(

Why can't you?

The lowest ping I get in QL is 140-160 on UK servers :/

wow that sux :(

no servers in UAE ? or close to it ?

nothing :(

asks for 1500 elo

le!

I wanted to play but then I saw House of Decay in the mappool
edit: oh wait it's 1500elo max, nvm

Too scrub for house of dickay?

.

Good luck guys!

-house of decay :P

I would sooner remove ztn!

I would sooner too

Is this for american players in NA?

Please can someone clarify. :)

Best.

NA players are welcome to play but games vs European players must be played on EU servers, in the event of two NA players meeting in the bracket then they can play wherever they like.

Gotcha.... any recomendations on time nudge then? haha -20 or so depending on the server... would be interesting

All I know about timenudge is it aims for you.

signup are closed?

No, I'm limiting the cup to 20 players. There will undoubtedly be no-shows or latecomers or downright bitches though so if you sign up you still might be able to play.

I'm waiting for someone to host a NO skill tournament. Like -elo.

I wonder how low the ELO goes....

Whoever named the tourney does a disservice to the players. I watched and the play was definitely not 'low skill'. I'm low skill and could not take a frag off most of the competitors. Might I suggest 'journeyman' or mid-skill for short?

In the grand scheme of things, 1500 Elo is definitely low-skill. 15xx-17xx I would say is mid-skill, but then again Elo isn't the perfect indicator of skill.

You are partly right, 1500 is the high-end of low-skill. That is why I named this tourney 'low-skill' and not 'newbie' as I have in previous tourneys where the cap was closer to 1300-1400.

If you look at the player's Elo range you will see there are players in there at 1100 and players who are just shy of 1500.

If you don't like the name, rules or requirements of the tournament then no one is forcing you to play, there are others who are perfectly content with them and are willing to play.

And try to remember, this is just a silly cup for fun. There are no prizes or anything at stake. I even made it a swiss format so that everyone gets to play the same amount of games and no one is eliminated after losing one or two. There is also some matchmaking in swiss based on wins and losses, so in the final round the two players with the most wins will face each other as will the two players with the most losses.

.

dude, <1500 is pretty low skilled, but if you are around 1450-1500 you probably will have a chance against 1600 or even 1700 elo players.

however, i'm 1400 elo and on my best maps i can bring it close against 1500-1700 elo players.

it all depends really :)))

Would be nice if the cap moved up to 1700ish next time.

Doesn't 125FPS div2 cater to this?

Up until 2200.

.

lmao

.

It should get a bump before the tourney starts, but we've got more than enough participants anyway so whatever :p
