So.... for the moment the making of the teams is not decided ·_·'... we should decide it soon S: so I can prepare the other things S:
For the moment I have got 3 teams:
-iRobot,b0mb0m,Nesme and Derp
-Butcher, Skaldy, Mike1225 and Canis
-TheHunter, Distorsion, Ollieverthecool, (? have to question :3)

The problem you have, is the majority of the server do not visit the forum. The team I stated was just a joke. 2 of those don't even know about a forum existing or care for anything other than just playing for 30 mins and then going to do other things.

Your best tactic is to advertise such a thing in game, but even then, you hit several demographics and will hit a hurdle in getting everyone to communicate and agree on a time.

While you are making an effort in trying to organise such an event, the reality is disappointment as it just wont be logistically possible to manage.

Well, the teams need to be a little bit more balanced.. all in my team are skill 7.XX except me... 6.4X , but Robots team would have some <4.xx and an 8.xx, besides many of them have accepted to play in the tournament... I suggest that since not all players see the forum, there is a setting of the game types, team sizes, modes of play, dates and times of the tournament and ALL rules in general defined. After this is set, then you may subscribe teams.

And then, it to be promoted during the play in the chat and admin messages during play (specially in peak hour in server 1). The team making has to be set after a subscription. It means that the person is willing and can participate on the event and signs for it.

Also, there is no clear consent from the admins willing to support it: this is actually the first thing that has to happen! You need active support from them, and their willingness to do / arrange such an event.

So in short:
1) Agree with admins.
2) set dates and times
3) set gametypes/rules and so on
4) find people willing and able to play
5) make available some tracking, specking and so on such that it may be followed. For example record video and put in youtube..
6) give winning team a representative price, For example VIP status for a month on LDG..

How about a little league tournament, where 4.00 or less can enter?

Count me in, teamless so far.

I'm most willing to play tdm or freon, yet I will play TAM too if such gametype is decided.
And I think teams shud first of all be balanced but not necessary random.

Butcher's quoted team was theoretical, not actual. Call me cynical, but the organizational demands of this sort of thing usually mean that it either doesn't take off or folds early.

Besides, I only play UT to unwind & blast for a bit - as can easily be seen by my major tactical and aiming fails, on any day of the week. So good luck with it and everything, but I'm only in if you are utterly desperate for a final player to make it work.

(feel free to kick my ass on BW this week, if you need some sort of retalliatory compensation for this)

Maybe the appropriate course of action would be to get a competitor count first? You can't have a tournament if you only have two teams, so make sure you can have enough to actually do this first.

I'd be interested if I have time for it, but I am in the US and work nights, I don't have a lot of time.
