Unloved Maps - Drug War [Winners: See 1st Post]

[danryan]

WINNERS: danryan, MNDuke, Master Fenrir, L M S

I am planning on running a series of quads tournaments on some of the least loved maps on CC. That means no feudal war, classic shapes, new world, etc. Instead, expect some of the maps people do not usually play.

The first map is Operation Drug War. I think it's a brilliant little map. Most would disagree.

8 teams. Teams will be seeded by score initially, then it will be a bracket style elimination. Best of seven games each round.

Settings are: Automatic, Sequential, No Spoils, Chained Forts, Fog

Teams:

1. Blitzaholic, Big Whiskey, Dividedbyzero, Jackal31 Total Score 11,014
2. Vexx, PaulG, Easy n Dirty, Goggles Paisano Total Score: 9,714
3. aspalm, bigroo4601, hambone, vicmasters Total Score 9,200
4. danryan, Master Fenrir, MNDuke, L M S. Total Score: 8943
5. trboye, yanakis, cille, ivanbuba, Total Score 7650
6. Hopscotcher, Agent 86, wolfpack0530, Saraith, Total Score 7200
7. 72o, dfp2dep, bigg chief, elfish_lad Total Score 6,467
8. JoshyBoy, octrigeek, squishyg, and b00060 Total Score 5860

[MNDuke]

I'll play, but I have never played op drug war. So, I may be more dead weight than anything. But, yeah, I am down for anything, so if you want or need my talents or lack of talents, count me in.

[Blitzaholic]

Blitzaholic, Big Whiskey, Dividedbyzero 8,447 score combined

[Ace Rimmer]

Reserve a team for Team TOFU - me (2199 pts), Dako (2763 pts), and timmy1 (3492 pts). Total score 8454.

All in to here, going to see some strong competition in this one!

[trboye]

trboye, yanakis, cille = 6174

[Ace Rimmer]

Team finalized above.

[danryan]

Updated to here, 4 teams in, need four more to get going.

[danryan]

If no one else signs up by the end of today we will go with a 4 team tournament. I guess this was to be expected given no one loves this map !

[Blitzaholic]

Blitzaholic, Big Whiskey, Dividedbyzero, Jackal31 = 11,014 Total

[JoshyBoy]

I would like to play but don't have a team.

I am in the process of recruiting one.

[trboye]

trboye, yanakis, cille and ivanbuba
for update!
Thanks!

Dan,

As you are participating in your own tourney then it would be a good idea if you disclosed what the other maps are or you're giving your team an unfair advantage. Thanks

This is the only map, sorry to make it confusing. Both the first set of games and the finals will be on Operation drug war. Future versions will be on Forbidden City, Austerlitz and other similarly unloved maps.

Edit: COF, does this post mean you're joining the other TOFUs? If so we can get started right away.

Don't mean to butt in but I think the problem is that you've put a point minimum. I'm quite sure that your sign ups would do much better if you hadn't set the limit.

That said, good luck with your first tournament!

I'm in two minds about joining tbh mate. Just seems a bit off to start in a semi final, know what I mean?

Thanks for clarification in your earlier post btw

All the best

Dan, I'm sorry but we're going to drop out of this one. Best of 7 foggy quads is a bit much to take on, especially since we haven't found anyone keen on joining us.

NP, Jake. I may have to rethink the format if I can't get another team though.

It's my third (two are ongoing, and I've rescued one that's ongoing). But that said, the pt minimum is an average of 1,750 per player, which should be pretty easy to fulfill. That said, I'm removing the pt minimum to see if I can get another team in. Pts will be used for seeding only.

True, not awfully high but it still puts some limits which might be too much for regular tournament players.

As you have moved it then I'm in I think I'll find a team in the next 24 hours if it's alright.

Sounds good, and I'm pleased you're joining.

Ok got a team: JoshyBoy, octrigeek, squishyg, and b00060

Is that the team name or just high fives all round?

Dan. I'll put a team together too. We've got a few triallists for TOFU n this cd be a good place for them to cut their teeth. Hopefully this means you'll get at least an 8 team tourney coz frankly 4 teams....that's not really right. And I know a few of the other TOFU lads are keen so you may have two teams from us.

[danryan]

Ok, I'll hang out for a while. Amazzony was getting a team, and O&H may enter another one too.
