Zandronum TDM Tournament - Rules and sign-ups!

[Dragon]

Team Deathmatch Tournament!
Alright, so after some organization and planning we decided to make a TDM tournament, similar
to the one we had on ST a while ago, seeing as the other three tournaments have worked
out better than expected (don't count the ragers that quit).

Rules:

• Round Robin-styled
• 8 teams consisting of 2 players in each team
• Best out of 3 - Team 1 picks a map, Team 2 picks a map, tiebreaker is random
• Using the TDMax compilation wad
• 75 frags
• 100% teamdamage
• Demos/Screenshots are mandatory
• Freelook
• No jump/crouch
• Timing out below 25 teamfrags results in restarts if the timed out player comes back within 2 minutes - Anything over 25 frags and timing out twice results in a win to the opposite team
• One hold per MATCH (not per map)
• The hold being longer than 2 minutes regardess of reason results in a map-DQ
• Servers are GV/NJ(BE) - Default server is dependant on where the majority is from - Which turned out to be EU so default server is GV
• Cheating/Quitting midseason results in a permanent ban from future seasons
• Required to idle in #zatc for easy contact
• Playing on servers not using these flags provided below results in invalid matches
• It doesn't matter in which order you play the games as long as they get done

It's not that I don't want to get owned or something, it's that if you want the players to have fun in a tourney no matter the skill, at least make the said tourney a little more balanced so people can have fun at their skill level. I was thinking of a division system, kinda what you had in the ZDC, but by looking at the rules, it probably won't happen in this one. Maybe the next one?

If it had that, I would happily enter it, but for now, I really don't want to join this tournament.

We are already at full limit, which took way less time than expected! The tournament has officially started!
Another thread where the results and such are gonna be posted will be up soon!

An update for you Dragon, Alexmax has kindly changed the settings to the TDM server in NJ to the same ones used in the other GV and BE Tourney servers. I think this server might be more viable for Euros to play their away fixtures on, and maybe for some American players to play their homefield games on.

Good job, the settings are the same but the WADs still differ, and they differ enough for it to still be invalid, if you fix the WADs as well we're good to go!
