Hopefully get uploaded to Youtube soon - Some REALLY good matches in there, some of the best I've seen for a long while, it was a great event in terms of TF2 quality and drama, but didn't quite reach the heights I aimed for. But probably the biggest underdog story since K1ck won ESL... Ahh well, you live and learn.]]> generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=community&topic=28059&post=485881 Mon, 10 Feb 2014 16:44:51 +0100 Reply by Toba https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/community/topic-28059/page-1/?recent=485881#post=485862 generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=community&topic=28059&post=485862 Mon, 10 Feb 2014 14:08:04 +0100 Reply by Hildreth https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/community/topic-28059/page-1/?recent=485881#post=485842 generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=community&topic=28059&post=485842 Mon, 10 Feb 2014 04:52:24 +0100 Reply by Hildreth https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/community/topic-28059/page-1/?recent=485881#post=485828 generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=community&topic=28059&post=485828 Mon, 10 Feb 2014 01:11:04 +0100 Reply by PoisonedPython https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/community/topic-28059/page-1/?recent=485881#post=485820 generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=community&topic=28059&post=485820 Mon, 10 Feb 2014 00:03:55 +0100 Reply by Hildreth https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/community/topic-28059/page-1/?recent=485881#post=485774 Welcome folks, this is going to be the first ever Highlander tournament of it’s kind as 8 of the best teams from North American Highlander are coming together to raise funds for UGC, all live on TeamFortress.TV from 5pm EST; that being 11pm CET for us Euros or 7am AEST for those Kangaroo lovers down under. Bringing the stream coverage for you will be dash alongside the Queen of Highlander casting, Kip of KipTV fame joined on the microphone by Ryushi also known as The Teenage Admirable. These Highlander loving nutcases will be on stream all night to bring you the best possible coverage as we try to raise some nickels for our favourite Highlander team (well second favourite, I am a Wireplay boy myself). The introductions are over, lets have a look at the rules, maps, brackets and the seedings below: Rules + Maps So the tournament is going to be double elimination, just like the ZOWIE events of the past couple of months but with a slight twist as this is 9v9 mode baby and you got 4 different gamemodes to play. The first two rounds of the upper bracket plus the first round of the lower bracket will see slightly shorter matches due to time constraints. Therefore for Payload and Attack/Defence maps, we will only see a best of one round affair, until we reach the mid stages of the tournament (Upper Bracket Final + Lower Bracket round 2). Also King of the Hill maps will be best of 5 rounds throughout the tournament whilst the favoured 5 capture point maps will be timelimit 30, winlimit 5 throughout the event. For the maps, leaders were asked to vote for their 7 favourite maps to play in the event. The ones that did selected 7 maps, which I have listed below: pl_badwater pl_upward cp_process_final koth_pro_viaduct_rc4 cp_gullywash_final1 koth_lakeside_final cp_steel For each game up until the final, it will be best of 1 map decided by each team through map elimination. The higher seed will decide who picks first and then both teams will eliminate 3 maps each in turn until one map is left, then the teams will play this map and the winner will progress with the loser knocked to the lower bracket. Teams will do the same right up until the Grand Final, giving each side a chance to eliminate something they do not feel strong on so we have the best possible match on the most even map for both sides. When the Grand Final comes along around 9.30 EST, it will be best of three maps with the upper bracket winner deciding the first map and then the loser of each map will decide the next one until we have a winner (the same as the Losers Pick system in ETF2L).

More cups would be cool though. We're thinking of doing another one for fun, cant afford to throw down prize money again though. Might tailor it towards wireplay.
Should get in contact with CanFo, try get some sponsorship. :P]]> generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=community&topic=28059&post=485750 Sat, 08 Feb 2014 21:04:52 +0100 Reply by tarob https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/community/topic-28059/page-1/?recent=485881#post=485707 generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=community&topic=28059&post=485707 Sat, 08 Feb 2014 14:15:54 +0100 Reply by Sprayer40 https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/community/topic-28059/page-1/?recent=485881#post=485657 generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=community&topic=28059&post=485657 Fri, 07 Feb 2014 19:20:27 +0100 Reply by Quell https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/community/topic-28059/page-1/?recent=485881#post=485655 Quoted from Bulow

[...] Not at the moment, this is merely a fundraiser event, not a sponsored event. Maybe someday. :P
I know its a funraiser event, but afaik the fundraiser affects both the EU and NA leagues or am I wrong? So it shouldnt be a problem to make a eu event :D]]> generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=community&topic=28059&post=485649 Fri, 07 Feb 2014 16:56:52 +0100 Reply by Hildreth https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/community/topic-28059/page-1/?recent=485881#post=485647 Quoted from Kaneco
