MONDAY MOONLIGHT MADNESS!!!

Ultimate Newb + Pro Team Face Off on Fresh Assorted Maps!!

WHEN: Monday, June 4th, 2018 at 10 pm EDT

***Pre-registration is required: Deadline to register May 21, 10 pm***

This will allow the format to be planned out so it goes smoothly and will allow players two weeks to familiarize themselves with selected maps if they so desire.

WHO: Newb + Pro team (or two mid-range players)
            Maximum ELO per team: 3150
            Minimum x wins per player at /stats x-y-z: x=100

MAP SELECTION: Each individual **pre-registered** team may choose two maps per team or one per player from the maps listed below to add to the Monday Moonlight Madness Map Pool of maps that will be played on June 4th. Picking the same map as other players IS allowed, and the map will increase in frequency in the map pool, ie. it will be added into the generator twice or however many times it is picked.

If fewer teams register, each team will be allowed more map choices.

Newb BS + Pro Buddy Team was originally going to challenge one other team for a little fun competition, but I wanted to give everyone a chance to participate.

*Pre-registration is required: Deadline to register May 21, 10 pm*

The exact format of the competition can only be decided once I know how many participants we will have. If you're interested, the sooner you express interest, the better I can plan this out.

I anticipate Round Robin style with each team playing each other team, if we have 5 teams or less, each team would play each team twice. If 6+ teams, each team would play each other team once. I'm thinking the map selection will be randomized using a generator (ie. the order of play and which match gets assigned which map out of the ones that have been selected by contestants). I need to have all the matches set up ahead of time so that is why preregistration is required.

If this ends up being between my team and another team, I still think that would be great fun. But especially since Thumb$ complained about lack of opportunity and others have expressed interest, I wanted to open it to more players.

Team 1: HumanPeasant and BabyShark
Team 1 Map Selections: Party at Midnight and Mr. Bean

Team 2: Igognito(z) and KagaN
Team 2 Map Selections: Zones and Halo of Hegemony

Team 3: Lambchops and TD Viruz
Team 3 Map Selections: Party at Midnight and Party at Midnight

Team 4: Vizzer and Mousey
Team 4 Map Selections: Lanes and Hey Stop That!

Team 5: ring62 and He-Man
Team 5 Map Selections: Violent Voyage and Ocean Bloom

Team 6: Masta{hr} and Disgruntled
Team 6 Map Selections: Violent Voyage and Halo of Hegemony

*Please post Insight Replays for all matches*

Let me know if you have any questions.

@Igognito
Great! I added you to the team list. What's your map selection? I plan to add a few more to the total pool and if you have any suggestions of great maps made by W2 players themselves, I'm happy to expand the selection. It'll just take me a bit of time to get the pics and all that.

@eleison

The reason I didn't include Twisted Meadows in spite of liking it just fine is because you can build on dirt, which is not standard play. If you recreated same map normal function I could include it.

The being able to build on dirt makes it and oddball and will hinder or confuse players who come to it without that awareness if the opponents know about that odd feature.

If you have some normal maps, feel free to PM or post in maps section on forum with @ so I can take a look and possibly include them in the potential map candidates that players can choose from.

My target for maps is fits at least 4 or more players and is made by W2 players, and is of quality and attractiveness and normal play style.

I also didn't include a lot of Bjaylandmaker because his gold mines have infinite gold.

Hi guys!  I just registered myself on the forum. My first vote for the tournament is violent voyage of course then second is halo of hemogony.  Is it teams of 2 players only? If its 2 players im not sure who is free to play either xbremer , he man, tofu or varas yet.

I got no idea why u are doing that in monday(wtf) 10 pm,few people from europe could play it but here will be 4 am, most of us got work and can't play in this hours
I have never seen a tournament that would start at 18:00 East European time(12:00 your time)


Since i change work, for me will be problem tour 3 pm in sunday, probably i will play only half and even if i won few rounds and it will be final i will just log off "gg going sleep"  cause its only game

since it's hard to find a perfect time for all time zones i think she just went with a time that works for her & anyone else who can happen to make it at that time. if there's interest maybe we can do a similar tourney later for euro players at a more convenient for them time!

Swag, you have my deepest condolences for your feelings of loss due to the timing of this tournament. I empathize.

I do however, decline to take responsibility for said condition on two counts.

Firstly, all users had an opportunity to vote for the time. You elected to forgo this wonderful opportunity.

Secondly, I have to question your priorities in life if work is more important to you than W2 or if playing W2 at 4 am seems like an unusual activity. I also have to question your commitment to the entire game of W2 if going to bed a few hours earlier and setting your alarm to rise, shine, and serve the king while it's still moonlight seems excessively arduous.

Young people are just too soft these days.

Work is more important than stupid w2 game,  normal person who has to work on 8am won't go sleep  day before at 10pm to get up at 4 am in the morning and play in the tournament for fun.
If u lose job you won't get money for pay electricity and internet connection and you won't play w2

 There is something like that in starcraft, but people sometimes play for high prize, for example, $ 1500 for promotion to the lan in italy
I remember russian protoss Dewalt  was playing europe qualifications at 10 pm but he had 2 am , he won it but he he didn't get a visa to fly to Italy  ;D

@He-Man Added you with ring as requested.

@eleison I'd already announced that map selection options would be finalized by the end of the weekend, and I did not have the ability to test out your edited map before then because I didn't have it. Nothing prevents you from hosting your own event whenever you wish with any map(s) you choose.

Tonight is the last day to register for this fun competition with prize money going to charity (www.gfa.ca (http://www.gfa.ca)) in the amount of the kills + razings of the winning team from their highest kill game. A GFA rep told me they will send an email to the winners if you provide your email addresses to acknowledge receipt of monies.

@Disgruntled and @MaStA{hR} Do you two want to team up?

Team 3 also has a spot available.

@Igognito and @KagaN You are registered as a team.

@Vizzer @mousEtopher @He-Man  @Ring62

Map selections must be in by as soon as possible by so players who want to will have time to familiarize themselves with the selected maps. If no map selection is submitted by a team, you will forfeit your ability to add maps to the playing pool from which the maps will be randomly selected using an automated generator.

Ok so ill ally He man.  we chose Violent voyage and ocean bloom. But i want to tell that we prefer the first version of violent voyage where the oil patches are straight not in diagonal cause it was more fair that way. So can we make VV like before?

For round robin that is 15 matches if we also make it 3games for getting points that is 45 games!!!

I deleted all old versions so I no longer have it. I will allow you to use the version that was current at the time you chose the map, which I believe is the version you are referring to. You will need to be responsible for bringing the map and ensuring others have it for any games that may be played on it. I will remind you that the maps will be randomly selected from the pool of selected maps.

We currently have Halo of Hegemony, Zones, Mr. Bean, Party at Midnight, Violent Voyage, and Ocean Bloom selected.

@Vizzer @mousEtopher @Lambchops @TD Viruz please make your map selections by Friday night or forfeit your chance to add maps of your choice to the pool.

Based on Masta's comment, he does not seem interested in parding with Disgrunt, which is ridiculous since Disgrunt is awesome. I'd pard Disgrunt myself and give Masta my pro pard if I weren't already committed to my current pard since months ago.

So @MaStA{hR} You can either pard Disgrunt or both you and he won't be able to play since it kinda is 2v2 and no one else who is currently partnerless signed up. :(

He is awesome - I don't get it.

Masta I'll remind you this tourney is for fun and charity. None of us are getting richer except for the enjoyment and experience we gain. Playing tough games is the only way to push yourself to grow as a player. I'd totally do it if I were you. Disgrunt owns me easy.

Also, even if we were before May 21, your proposed team ELO of 3366 exceeds max ELO per team of 3150.

What I would allow is each of you lumping onto a preregistered partnerless person, namely you with Disgrunt and Kyle with Masta or if Masta's still too high for him then we could try to figure something else out.

By the way I think I might have the old version of VV. But I do not understand what is the fuss with the oil patches?

In general the newer version is meant to balance the spots so that there is not 1 super weak spot like it was in the original one.

what is 1300? Do i have enough? I need an ally to, i think ring is going with he-man. Maps I want to play Violent Voyage version 1 with straight oil patches, and Halo .

I'm sorry @TOFU but the deadline to register for this one was May 21, but if you want to show up on June 4th as an emergency backup in the event a contestant is ill or otherwise upheld, you are welcome to do so.

Nice choice Kagan.

So 6 teams...
You have forgotten to add Disgruntled and Masta at the first post!

For round robin that is 15 matches if we also make it 3games for getting points that is 45 games!!!
Sounds cool :-) (5 * 3) matches for each team!

45 games? Lol no. That's crazy. In double round robin each team would play each other team twice, whoever takes most wins overall is winner, if there is a tie, tiebreaker match decides.

So it should be 10 games per team with possible tiebreaker.

I will post the games (matchups and maps) on Saturday morning. Any team not entering maps selections into the playing pool by then forfeits the chance to do so.

I plan to use tournamentscheduler.net automatic generator to randomly assign maps and matchups and will post them here on Saturday.

EXAMPLE schedule only: http://tournamentscheduler.net/schedule/NTc0NzgwNzMxNg (http://tournamentscheduler.net/schedule/NTc0NzgwNzMxNg)

(Actual schedule will be posted Saturday morning to allow teams to enter their maps by then.)

Yes cause the VV map has been remade 2 times. There are 3 versions of it. The third 1 is better than the second 1 but the first 1 is the best cause the oil patch with the mine make a straight line on every base. Thats how it was way better. Now if u look version 2 and 3 the oil patch and the mine make not a straight line they are in diagonal.

I know you all are out of your minds excited for tonight but do try to make it through the day without exploding so we have all of our players intact for tonight's fun fight!

@Disgruntled @MaStA{hR} Are you in agreement with ring62 about which Violent Voyage map you want to use for tourney? He wants the first version I think.

I usually delete old versions as maps are updated so I no longer have the old versions, so one of you needs to make sure to bring the version you want if it's not the current as he updated it after this competition was announced.

Haha thanks to viruz for carrying my newb ass  :))

Great idea for a tourney. Loved the Noob + Pro thing.

I ended up playing some games with people that I wouldn't normally play with and had a ball. I think the format is good for the community, and just good fun in general.

Well done babyshark :)

It is a pity my Pard didn't show up :-/
Anyhow, nice going Human Peasant and BabyShark. At the Next one, I hope I have a partner to play against you.

Cheerios

Cool replay from the tourney.

See Lambchops destroy Igog and Masta 2v1 on Zones!.... Well ok, maybe viruz helped a little bit. But it was definately my awesome skills that won it.  ;)
