Okay, about the map:

As you can see, the last few pictures are in swordedit. Now, in all the other pictures, it looks as if there's nothing there. This is because I had to use a modified glass shader in order to allow spectators to be able to see into the arena, and to make sure that there was less lag. Existing glass shaders have an annoying tint color effect, which tends to cause annoying video lag and look really bad. An example of this can be seen in Legacy XD. Anyway. Logs will be placed to show the boundaries of the glass walls. Spectators can teleport into the spectator stands or they can walk around to the outside of the arena and look in. It's preferred that you stay in the stands, so that no one will be tempted to throw a grenade into the arena. The normal bloodgulch teleport goes straight inside the arena, while two other teleporters (not shown) lead into the spectator stands.

The arena itself is medium-sized, with some scenery and a large hill. Hopefully this will be enough for those with sniping weapons. No weapons or powerups will be placed inside the arena, except perhaps for extra ammo for each gun.

*cough* little bigger maybe?

[Løki]

Awesome! Although if we can hope for spectators then we're going to have to have separate rounds in order for the server to be low on lag and people can watch. Maybe we can have a scoreboard type thing so it would be like a one on one match in the end.

[Kayar]

All matches will be one on one, tournament-style, unless we decide to do it by starting with larger matches and going into smaller ones.

We have 16 people, right? Or is it 18?

Code: Select all

16/4=4,

4--
      ---2--
4--           ---2--
      ---2--          ---2--->1
4--           ---2--
      ---2--
4--

Or

Code: Select all

2--
      ---2--And so on...
2--
      ---2--And so on...
2--
      ---2--And so on...
2--
      ---2--And so on...
2--
      ---2--And so on...
2--
      ---2--And so on...
2--
      ---2--And so on...
2--

Edit: We have 18, so it would be a bit different. We probably will have to go with 1 on 1. The above possibilities would be if we had 16.

How about after this tournament we have a team tournament with custom weapons? As in 2 on a team vs 2 on a team.

[Fuel]

that would be bad because what if your teammates weapon messes you up lol

[Excend]

it should be

Code: Select all

---2---
          ---2---
---2---          ---2--- 1
          ---2---
---2---

---2---
          ---2---
---2---          ---2--- 1  ---3---1
          ---2---
---2---

---2---
          ---2---
---2---          ---2--- 1
          ---2---
---2---

have 3 sub finals and 1 final

[Løki]

It would be cool for the first place prize to be your gun featured in a mod... like an EPIC Mod...lol

[Kayar]

Ah, that looks good. Thanks Slappey. That's a better schedule than what I had worked out. Thanks.

Unless there are objections, I think what Slappey's done should suffice for the current schedule of the tourney. Once all weapons are completed I will upload the map and everyone can get to their matches.

[Slapzy]

well, let me know if i need to make any changes to it.

[Løki]

Awesome work Slappey. It seems this will be epic.

[Slapzy]

:/ that only took like a minute and a half, lol but thanks.
