We could move it an hour earlier? Considering its an all kill, you dont need all your players on at the start or at the end, so if moving it so its 8-10pm AEST (2 hrs on average), instaed of 9-11..
As for Friday, I think we'd find Friday is a harder day to get people at our level to commit too. But again im open to opinions.
QED is the first team to put their official confirmation in, fielding one team.
You have until Thursday to confirm participation and give me your squad.
Rules
Your squad can have any number of players, they must all be in either Bronze, Silver, Gold or Platinum however.
You are allowed 4 roster changes during the tournament. If you swap two players, that is ONE roster change. If you just drop or add a player, thats also ONE roster change.
For each round you must nominate your starting player by 24 hour before the start time.
Losing team picks the next player and map.
Only two platinum players may be used per match. (This resets each match and DOES NOT have to be the same platinum players each match).
If you enter two teams, obviously each team must list a squad. Each team has the 4 roster changes. Players are Allowed to swap between the teams, as long as each team has a roster change to use (Even if they have played previously for the other team.). Also if a side who enters more then one team struggles to field a lineup and has used all their changes, I may allow more changes.
I will get up a bigger/more proper first post soon with all the finalized details.
At this stage my map pool I am considering is:
GSL Daybreak, GSL Metropolis, GSL Antiga Shipyard, GSL Entombed Valley, MLG Shakuras Plateau, WCS Ohana, WCS Cloud Kingdom
Maybe we could add condemned and korhal to that too? Possibly 9 games being played but only 7 maps listed. ESV Korhal will have the depots, I dont know that there is depoted up condemned yet. Could always make one :P
I think a simple rule of you cant open with a platinum, would suffice. Otherwise if its too complicated
a) its hard to follow
b) it might catch a few teams out if some of their BSG players arent there at the start time.
The other thing is there is no prize here, its friendly competition.. and if they just use one player to all kill from game 1, it means their other players wont be as ready for the SEACL
Yeah this thursday for confirmation of participation
Since I want to have round 1 the Thursday after.
Skype I can do, but for myself personally skype is an awful means of communication since I work a lot and I cant use skype at work.. PM me here or posting in a thread is much better if you want a quick response from me.
