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

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

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.

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.

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.
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.

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.

try doin the maths: 1 divided by 0 is undefined or infinite. 40 divided by 1 is 40, therefore lower KDR
