CTF Tendency 1

#1

Introduction
Thanks to the big success of last month's test run of this tournament, the real deal was inevitable. So now, with great pleasure, I announce the first edition of CTF Tendency.

Format
The tournament follows a double-elimination system, which means that teams remain active in the tournament until they lose 2 games.

Teams
The tournament utilizes a snake draft system, where captains pick players out of the free agency pool to fill their teams' rosters. The captain who picks first in the 1st round picks last in the 2nd round, and so on. Teams only have 3 spots, so captains must pick only two players to fulfill their roster. The captains will be selected by hand out of the players who signed up, to ensure that more skilled, reliable and smart players are given the opportunity to lead their teams. The draft will take place on IRC (@ #ctft), and captains must announce their picks through there.

The amount of teams that will participate in the tournament is directly proportional to the amount of sign-ups and, more importantly, to the amount of players who actually attend to the event. There is no rule against odd amounts, so it is possible to have 5 or 7 participating teams.

Maps
The map pool for the tournament is comprised of 5 maps, compiled into a wad called ctf_tendency1.wad.
  • Anthology CTF MAP01
  • The Last Strike Extreme CTF MAP01
  • Odamex CTF MAP01
  • Smart CTF - IDL 2011 Edition MAP01
  • Rage CTF MAP01
Games
Each round has a duration of 5 minutes and a score limit of 3 flags. Sudden death is disabled for the first 2 rounds, but is otherwise enabled in the 3rd round.

Each game follows a Best of 2 system, meaning that if a team has the upper hand after 2 rounds, that team wins the game and advances on the brackets. The team that is placed higher in the brackets picks the 1st map out of the pool, while the lower team picks the 2nd map. A game ends in 2 rounds if:
  • a team wins two consecutive rounds;
  • a team wins a round and ties another.
Otherwise, a 3rd round will be played with sudden death enabled. The team that is placed lower in the brackets removes one of the 3 remaining maps from play, then the higher team does the same. The last remaining map is then played. This happens if:
  • a team wins a round but loses another;
  • both teams tie two consecutive rounds.
Rules
  • Trading players between two teams is not allowed.
  • Trading players between a team and the free agency, on the other hand, is allowed, but can only be done once.
  • If a team is unable to show themselves when their next game comes up, it will automatically count as a loss for them, which means they will either be sent to the loser's bracket or defeated altogether, depending on their placement.
Schedule
Sign-up period: Friday, November 14th to Saturday, November 22nd @ 7:30 PM EST.

Event date: Saturday, November 22nd.
7:30 PM EST - Draft starts on IRC at #ctft. All participants must make themselves available before then or they will be removed from the free agency.
7:45 PM EST - Draft ends, and the 1st game starts.
10:00 PM EST - Probable deadline for the tournament's ending.

Server
The games will happen in a Funcrusher+ (New Jersey) server hosted exclusively for the event.

Other info
The brackets for the tournament will be regularly updated at http://challonge.com/tendency1 as games are played.

The IRC channel where all things related to the tourney will be discussed, and where the draft will take place is #ctft at Zandronum IRC.

Shame I couldn't make the draft this time, but Water apparently can make any team he's in win. Was still exciting watching those last few games.

Unfortunately, we had to play with just 3 teams, but good games ensued still! Congrats to Water, John Zombie and Killstrike for winning the tournament.

Hopefully someone will post a full demo soon. The final brackets can be seen here: http://challonge.com/tendency1

I was F12ing Water the whole time and it is obvious that he was using some sort of doom assisting tool. My super secret web cam that I installed in his place caught him eating a whole pizza and drinking orange juice while playing chess against Yoda while his computer did all the work. I'm petitioning that he be banned from any tournaments in the nearby future! In other news, good games!
