#miniduel

So with the sudden return of competition, clans as well as myself (what a surprise...)
I thought I'd bring miniduels back with me!

So for those wanting to play some duel tournaments, short and consistant though! Start idling in that channel.
Rules are just like previously:
  • 50 frags
  • Best of 1
  • Double Elimination
  • 6 players minimum - 16 maximum
  • Whichever server gives the most equal ping between the servers between GV, DE FC+ and NJ FC+
  • Winner of previous tournament becomes #1 seed for the next tournament, assuming he plays. If you skip one tournament map you lose your previous seednumber to those who contineuously sign up and play.
  • If you then sign up to the next upcoming tournament map(s), you'll be placed after previous participants seeds i.e. Dsparil wins map1 and skips signing for map2, but signs for map3, he'll be placed after whoever played map2 that's playing in map3 and if everyone from map2 signs to map3, Dsparil ends last in the seeds.
So if you want some duel-action, make sure to idle in #miniduel on Zand IRC!

Why does highest seed get to pick server?

Well if the player is already considered better I think it'd increase parity if the lesser player got to choose server but I guess we have differing opinions on things.

I guess that was made for nerf capo's 10-40 op ping by saying to him that he's low tier player. Cuz there's not much possibility to win him on euro servers.

Is the interest here? If so I'll bring them back, but if it's only like 4-5 players then I don't think it's worth it.

Changed from no minimum limit to 6 minimum.
Clearified the rule of keeping/losing your seed number.

Just start idling in #miniduel on IRC then. And create an account on http://challonge.com/ because that's where you sign up and post results.
