Kain Spero Imperfects Negative-Feedback 893	Posted - 2013.01.30 16:12:00 - [1] - Quote We are now in the Double Elimination Phase of the tournament! Start scheduling those matches for the first round! I will be clarifying the times of this weekend's matches soon. Use the channel "LFBattle" or "Dust Tourney" to schedule your matches. Every corp in the tourney should have at least 1 Rep in the "Dust Tourney" channel. Please be aware that one member of each team in each match will need to record the match so the results of each match can be verified. -If you feel your corporation cannot meet this requirement please contact me at Kane Spero in game or [email protected] and we can discuss your situation. I may be able to use screenshots of the end match scoreboard to verify results. I need CEOs Interested in sponsoring a wildcard team to send an in-game mail to Kane Spero or just email me at [email protected] Interested corps can also reply in this thread to be added to the list. -You need to have "Dust Tourney" In the subject so I can spot it easily. ********************************* Double Elimination Tournament Teams Brackets ZionTCD Pink Fluffy Bounty Hunterz Universal Allies OSG Planetary Operations SyNergy Gaming SVER True Bloods G I A N T The Southern Legion Subdreddit Pro Hic Immortalis CREATIVE KILLERS 843 BurgezzE.T.F Wildcard Corps** Betamax *If you don't see your corp on the list and it has been over 24 hours since you applied ping this thread and send another message to me.
Kain Spero Imperfects Negative-Feedback 893	Posted - 2013.01.30 16:12:00 - [2] - Quote Since I am awarding the prizes and will be helping promote the tournament Imperfects and its sister corps IMPSwarm and Internal Error will not be fielding a Corp Team for this tourney. ********************* PHASE ONE: OPEN ROUND ROBIN Feb 2nd to Feb 15th Corporations participating in the tournament will earn seed points for corp battles during the Round Robin. The specific rules will be explained in a separate post and linked here. 12 Teams will be seeded along with 4 wildcards. Round-robin rules: https://forums.dust514.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=55607&find=unread PHASE TWO: DOUBLE ELIMINATION TOURNAMENT Feb 16th to March 3rd http://www.dust514stats.com/bracket.cfm The seeded and wildcard teams will advance through the brakets until one team is victorious as the Open Beta Tournament Champion. We will be working with participating corporations to facilitate corporations competing from as many time zones as possible. While we will be flexible within reason should a corporation not schedule their matches in a timely fashion they will be penalized with a loss and may be disqualified from the tourney and may be replaced my a Wildcard team. ******************* Special Announcements The stats for the tournaments will be officially hosted at http://www.dust514stats.com/ Use the channel 'LFBattle' and 'Dust Tourney' to help arrange matches Ust the channel 'Dust OB' to help arrange Eve side support *RULE CLARIFICATION* RINGERS As mercernaries we should be able to be mercs on the corporate and individual level. During the Open Round-Robin matches with ringers will be counted towards qualifying as long as there are no more than two ringers in a given battle. Ringers from a different corporation at the time of a given match forfit their eligibility for the idividual tourney-wide community prizes, but will still be eligible for prizes given for the recording contest for any footage that they submit. Video material sent by ringers will also make the compteting corporation eligible for the seed bonus points. Kills and warpoints made by ringers will not be counted to a team's (Corporation's) total for stats purposes. RINGERS IN THE DOUBLE ELIMINATION PHASE OF THE TOURNAMENT WILL RESULT IN DISQUALIFICATION FOR THE COMPETEING CORPORATION. In order to NOT be considered a Ringer for the Double Elimination Phase of the tournament each member must be part of their competeing corporation PRIOR to downtime on the 15th of February. Employment history Eve-side will be used to resolve any disputes. ************* Current Match Submissions** Only two matches are allowed to count for a coporation in the tournmant against any given opponent (Corporation) during the Open Round-Robin. Zion's victory at Akadagi against SI is invalidated due the entire scoreboard not being recorded, but this allows the match on 2/5 to be counted. (Otherwise this would exceed to two-count rule). Unless a corroborating image is sent in by SyNergy gaming for the 2/5 match this match is also invalid due to the entire scoreboard not being recorded. Any images or recordings of the final score board that I cannot read will NOT be eligible for qualifying points. You must include the names, corp, kills, and warpoints for everyone in the match in the recording or photo. Please try to make the focus on the images as sharp as possible. Any images or videos too large to link can be sent directly to [email protected] but must NOT exceede 20 MB in size.[/quote]

I'd love to actually make bets with my billions of isk on eve. The short answer is yes. I'm going to be working with a team to see if we can implement both Eve and Dust side betting. I think the guys can pull it off Eve-side, but I think the market mechanics may not be mature enough to pull it off Dust side though.
Kain Spero Imperfects Negative-Feedback 893	Posted - 2013.01.30 17:51:00 - [5] - Quote I hear you. I want to actually see about making the schedule a lot more flexible than everything on 1 day once a week until it is over

This of course doesn't apply to pilot end of the battles. There is a change to squad sizes happening next week most likely from 4 men to 6. Pub matches will go up to 48. If they keep Corp battles at half the Pub match number then this Tourney will be held at 12 vs 12. I really hope so 8v8 would be kinda lame for a tourney. The 16v16 was really nice, it made for some epic battles. I agree. Hopefully if this update drops in time we'll get at least 12 v 12.
Kain Spero Imperfects Negative-Feedback 893	Posted - 2013.01.31 18:03:00 - [12] - Quote Glad to add PFBHz to the list. I've updated the list with all of the emails I've received and should have any corps who submitted their application in game updated by the end of the day.

It's up to corps to schedule as many matches as they can for qualifying points. All corp matches within the round robin rules count for points.

I understand the bugs can be frustrating . Since this match was recorded it can still qualify for the bonus seed points. I hope you would reconsider, but if you would prefer to withdraw your entry I understand. Also, great quality on the recording! Does the voice in the Warbarge say the "Suicide in public areas..." line in French? EDIT: Whatever your decision I'd like to thank you for your participation in the community event so far. Part of this tourney is to actually find bugs like you did, which gives me an idea for additional category if we get another community sponsored prize.

To me it seems better to give it to most kills in a single game, otherwise, especially in the DE phase, it would almost certainly go to a player on one of the winning teams. I think it would be cool for a player to be able to do awesome and win a prize, even if his team doesn't make it to the semis, etc. Also, there would be less number crunching. I like this idea for the Round Robin. I'll go through the material and see who had the highest kill count in a single match.
