Hello North and South American mates,

I have a proposal that I have mentioned to Dissonance and would like to share with you and the larger E+ Community.

I would like to invite 6 North/South American Clans to play a Round Robin Tournament that will start in January 2008.

The tournament will incorporate Freeze Tag (FT), Team Death Match (TDM), Clan Arena (CA), and Capture the Flag (CTF). It will unfold like this:

Each Clan plays 1 map (any mutually agreed map) against the other 5 clans in FT. Then we repeat the process in TDM, Clan Arena, and CTF. There will be a winner in each category plus an overall points winner. The total time will be 1 month. I have an Excel chart of the tournament already setup with fictitious Clan names.

The matches will be played on multiple Servers and may be simultaneous, overlap or stand-alone. The frag limits would be FT - 15, TDM - 150, CA - 19, and CTF - 9.

However, there is a complication. It turns out that Dissonance, Nine, and 02 have also been planning a tournament that they wanted to start in December. After speaking with Dissonance, we decided to explore working together and perhaps aim for a joint tournament that starts the middle of January 2008.

One difference in the Dis/Nine/02 proposal is the creation of Fun Teams for clan-less players who would like to join the tournament. Note, a joint tournament will also be larger so I will suggest to Dissonance that we break it up into manageable chunks by handling each game type separately and allowing Clans to compete ONLY in the game types that interest them.

Check the WASP2 and BE Forums, as well as, this Thread for further updates.

Killer, maybe we could delete CA from the gametype as it is somewhat in the same way as Freeze Tag, but with no unfreezing. It might be very long with 4 gameplay, deleting one could cut the time of it. Just my two cent Winking

Yes, if we do work together on this, changes such as that would have to be made because your plan would have more teams that I had envisioned in mine. So, a very valuable 2 cents.

<sidebar>: CA requires a different mentality from FT which appeals to me. You have to play more strategically and the maps tend to take less time to be completed. That is why I personally like it.

This is why I did not want more than 6 Clans involved. With only 6 Clans, some Clans feel left out but the Tournament can be managed properly. More than 6 and the Tournament gets very unwieldy and difficult to manage unless there is a fair sized support staff.

I did not envision any ranking and I don't know if Dis/Nine/02 had discussed that in their proposal either.
