I'm able to play anytime, I do not wish to be a cap, I'm the best. No, you don't have to put that last part as a description.
Suggestion, include the music replacement thing from GV, the musics in this are BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAD. I can't listen to my favorite musics :(

I should be good everyday after around 5pm CST except on Fridays, I'm sometimes out later on that day, I will let anyone know if something comes up, but I should be good to go.

I'll be able to play everyday, I think. I'll be gone for few (three probably) days during that time, though and I don't know the date yet. As for the time, 17:00-22:00 CEST should be fine for me.

Damn. I was about to sign up incase someone drops out but I remembered I'm on holiday for the most of it. Good luck everyone though!
EDIT: I'm back on the 8th August so you can put me in the substitutes if you so wish.

I am available any time past 11am through ~10pm any day except Tuesdays and Saturdays.
I also sometimes alias as Davy Jones so if I show up with that name for whatever reason, you'll know it's me.
[EDIT] Right, that's EST (GMT-5) time for me.

honestly, even trying to quantify someone's availability beyond a 7 day mark is kind of crazy.
personally I'll be available whenever as long as I have prior notice.
edit:
<AlexMax> It slightly reduces the cone of fire (a miniscule amount really, I wonder if they even double-blind tested it to see if it was an actual tournament)
<AlexMax> BUT
<AlexMax> it also has something where if you're within LOS and close enough to your target, it halves the cone
<AlexMax> it's not 'oldschool ssg' by any definition
<AlexMax> it's a 'hacked ssg'
<AlexMax> It is _impossible_ to make a super shotgun that has correct "oldschool" behavior until 98e comes out
I would avoid using this hacked ssg. just keep it default, everyone knows how that ssg works

This will take place mainly (or always) on American servers, since the majority of active CTF players are American. If there is a European team, there's no problems playing on GV UK and then one on GV NY.
To be honest, I'm actually against the whole "first match in one server, second match in a different server" concept, especially because of how difficult it is to make fair grounds for tie-breaking when needed. Not to mention players would be forced to adapt to different pings.
Here's a suggestion from me: server location should be predetermined by the location of all players who are going to play a match, kind of like how
MAC works. Out of 6 (or 8) active players who will fight each other, if the majority of them live closer to the UK GV host, then that should be the server of choice for all rounds. The only drawback to this would be if one team has 3 Euros and the other only has 1, but it's something you should consider anyway.

What!? You should definitely make it follow the best of 3 format.

Please confirm your times with me. If it's sensitive, I'll add a star in place of your name.
Anytime after 6 PM EST here. Also, this gigantic time table is just plain unnecessary, in my opinion. Probably keep it as a personal text file or a Word document, but making the OP way larger than it should can be annoying.

You could enter the side pool as a sub for when people come back or not, up to you.

Wheres the best place to reach you? IRC (quakenet or zandronum?) or PM?

So far its undecided, though after reviewing how ZD's weapon functions, Ivan emulated ZD very well. ZD is probably what AlexMax would consider a 'hacked' SSG.
Try playing with it, I notice that I whiff much less and can compete with people on Grandvoid (UK) now. People have actually been coming into GV NY duel servers and claiming they like it more than any other port.

Are you able to be on between 7:00 PM EST and 8:00 PM EST? That's a critical time right now
