Tahadar:
I couldn't PM b/c your inbox was full. But yeah I'm flexible to nething but I'm guessing everyone would want the following lineup:
Wake
Karkand
Sharqi
Mashtuur
Possibly:
Oman
Clean Sweep (I hope not, but I have heard multiple people reference to it)
Lets go with the non possibly ones though. 2 rounds sound good, and hey, if this works out we may have more. Let's see what dont_be_ss and ssonrats say

Do we really have to do this? You already know who the winner is.
bump
As long as Mashtuur is in the mix i'm a happy sniper.
any map for me, just need that new sniper rifle then ill be fine
i like playing sniper along and would gladly play will be under the 99mm account though
You have to learn the rules of the game and then you have to play better than anyone else.
ok so it seems like we will have
karkand
wake
sharqui
mashtuur
2 rounds per map
32 players in 64-player maps
server will be unranked and Password-protected. password will be posted in this thread
tentative date is this saturday (if we can arrange the whole thing before then), not sure what time though
either myself or duffry will post an IP once its sorted
P.S. the servers probably gonna be in the UK. non-european guys are definitely welcome, but you'll be disadvantaged cos of ping..
we will probably have spectators recording footage as well

take a stroll in to tv2 wake 8/15 and you'll find your self dead in seconds lol. oh and [ptg] for that mattter.
OK, we need to nail some specifics if we're to do it this weekend.
I propose the following and we can change stuff as required.

__________________________________________________________________________________
We have 2 dedicated machines that we can set up how we like. I would rather use our matchplay server as this means we don't have to close one of the ranked games. We have a public co-op game running on this box at the moment which you can join to test pings (217.10.144.130:16568). If the pings are no good there then we can put a server up on our dedicated Multiplay server, if you have ever played on one of our Euro ranked servers (Mayhem, Bedlam or Chaos) you should know how well they run. These are hosted by the same people as the PTG servers on a very similar box.
As I noted above we will have BattleRecorder running so anyone who plays a round will be able to download the BR movie of it (unless the bandwidth goes to silly levels as we pay for the usage on this box). ZULU and I also propose to spectate (suicide and follow players) in order to admin the game and possibly commentate too (probably in vent but sorting this out). The aim is to make a highlights movie of the event so ZULU and I will have Fraps at the ready. We'll also have server administrators handy to remove the smacktards etc.
The time above is just a suggestion. As this is covering players on both sides of the Atlantic any suggested revision needs to take all players into consideration.
I'm assuming we're saying that it's sniper kit only and we'll have a shuffle about of players if requested.
Scoring will be based on KDR only gathered from the end of round boards (which we will make available to all).
So, how does that grab people?
Timely and sensible suggestions welcome.

duffry thats looking good. i dont have any preference for the time. probably a good idea to use the match server as you say.
I dunno about the scoring, shouldn't we be basing it off which team wins the round? Otherwise it just becomes a campfest (Except for me of course). We can randomize the players on each team each round and the player that has been on the winning teams the most is the most coveted.duffry wrote:

I think the analysis of the scores can happen later, what I was kinda getting at was that it's not gonna be about who caps flags etc, just score.Nyte wrote:

Team play is also gonna make it hard to identify the best single sniper on the night.
If it's a camp-fest then the winner will be the one that finds a spot where they can see others but others can't see them which is fair, but if a sniper is in a field of snipers they are gonna have to find their targets without becoming one.
Was Saturday the best day for all, I just saw it as one proposed and went for it. I ask as there's an England footy match on which bothers me not one bit but others may prefer to be getting drunk that day.

erm, If you have 1 kill to 0 deaths you actually have an infinite KDR, meaning it can't be beaten, so that wouldn't work
Err no, you have a ratio of 1:0.bennisboy wrote:

I think we can come up with something suitable and fair but as I said it's there to indicate that kills and deaths are gonna be important, not team points or flags.
god i can't wait for wake it will be 16 snipers on the island vs 16 on the other side it's gunna be crazy!
i'll still take part in the other maps too though, but i'm very shit on them

Yup i'm gunna get pwned on all maps but wake, i need to stop whoring that map....
try doin the maths: 1 divided by 0 is undefined or infinite. 40 divided by 1 is 40, therefore lower KDRduffry wrote:
