Big thanks to Wangs for hosting this tournament. I've only ever hosted one tournament so I figured Its time to host another one.
Sunday November 1st @ 2pm Central U.S.
Anyone want to co-host it with me? Or at least help me update bracket because i'd like to play in the tournament if possible.
I feel like after the initial brackets are up, it shouldnt be too hard for people to figure out who they're playing even if the bracket isnt updated immediately.
if this is a bad idea just say it and i'll not play.

All tourneys seem to be Sunday. I'm just curious how much Sat or Sun would effect it and/or what the players would prefer. You know it will only be ave/top players consuming 90% of the capacity.
Also, keep in mind, you are mid football in the US. That is also 8PM in Poland for Sunday.
I personally kind of like the smurf tournaments. It makes everyone play without tendencies vs the opponent. I also did like that once a year huge tournament burnt did where a lot of people came back just to play in it. No smurfs there. (Julyish?)
Just my opinions, I could be 100% wrong, which is why I'm seeking out feedback/advice myself.
PS TK: thanks for all of the help today, was a lot going on but I did notice it.

Thanks for participating in the Tournament. YourDoom wins vs COOKIES 3-2
Top 4:
YourDoom aka Lone
COOKIES aka u8t3io3p
Yggdrasil aka Medivh
stickybandit aka swift (i believe)

If anyone else wants to reveal aka's feel free to do so.
I was ~MeteoR
Brackets were pretty ugly. i admit. Had a few people go AFK for too long... We did the best with what we had. But I think everyone had a good time... And the final game was a pretty good matchup considering I had no idea who anyone was and all of the matchups were 100% random.

Here is me streaming the final bo5 vs COOKIES and YourDoom
Sorry i didnt realize the game sound was not on. It was enabled.. It just didnt record.
Been having a lot of problems with OBS sound recently.

Fridays and Saturdays actually work better if you have European and Australian players like PBall does. I've hosted the majority of my tournaments probably over 80% on Saturday and maybe 20% Friday and Sunday.
I talk to so many people and organize tournaments a bit differently than a lot of people though. Even though I advertise on the forum and the Warcraft 2 pages I know a lot of PBallers personally and just people in general on the server. So I do a lot of word of mouth to my gaming buddies and then lesser contacts or way old friends on social media.
I'll say this with Christmas coming up this is the season starting with Halloween where old Warcraft 2 players come back and then leave shortly after or a few hang around. Tournaments during this time Late October to about February will do better generally. GOW tournaments always seem to be on Sunday for the most part but it doesn't have to be that way no. A lot of Europeans and especially Australians have been pissed about the way RU handles GOW tournaments.

Congrats to lone.
I wasn't able to participate in this one. I'll be on the road during Ripe's tourney next weekend too - so I can't make that one either :(
StickyBandit went 2-3 vs Lone, so most likely Shotgun... slight chance that it could be either lux/steve/wg/viet
-
Must be shotgun. Lux viet wg and steve had diff smurfs.
-
Stickybandit, story of Swifts life
-
Must be shotgun. Lux viet wg and steve had diff smurfs.
shotgun were afk when tour started so its impossible
-
Coulda been Sepi or Viruz. The problem with stickybandit was the CAN flag made it seem like he was Braviet, and that gives a massive advantage to whoever lol
-
Maybe we have a member of our community that nobody knows about who is able to compete is the highest level. Somebody who was able to fool lone and everybody else watching into believing in with Swift. We need to welcome this new Undercover top-tier player into our community
-
What a mystery
-
I'll gladly welcome and train anyone who wants to learn, but harry beat the guy, so doubt he could make us think he's swift lol...
Could not have been Eq or Tyrus cause they'll just crumble under pressure late game (despite 2 12 dual vs defensive power). It had to be someone who was willing to go through the trouble of appearing Canadian so at this point I'm guessing Sepi as he is very underrated and can easily compete at the top if he is active enough. Great late game and knows a lot of "wc2 theory" lol
-
Bara blows too, so thats out of the question btw
-
If it was me I'd sweep you in the finals newb
-
What a mystery
-
Tk you can easily find out too. But that would be frowned upon. Revealing smurfs is a big no no
-
I think we will just leave this one for Equinox to investigate when he returns to war2.
What a glorious day that will be.
WE MISS YOU EQUINOX

LOL!
-
For the record I have not looked or tried to find out. Another player already said who it was and that player would know.
-
If it was me I'd sweep you in the finals newb
maybe with my hands tied together
-
actually.... no... not even then

let's see bara's stats vs anyone good, or let's see how i'll roflstomp this spineless cunt if i am not drunk on 3-4 bottles of wine stupid cunt ;)
go kill yourself worthless prick for real...
-
u got owned period end of paragraph
-
who the fk are you?
i literally do not get owned, nor lose a series half unrusted.
bara is a spineless lil bitch as a person. not a troll, he's serious and that makes him unspeakably pathetic. w/e...
you are just clueless.
if bara wasn't a lil fag he'd "challenge" me, but 95% of ppl here (including himself) know he'd lose 90-100% of the games.
this is the end of the paragraph, now fk off scum
-
bara didnt touch the game for like 12+ years then came back and walloped u.

Cat got your tongue you slimey cunt?

gj you owned yourself again faggot. any of those games will prove to watchers I am beyond ready-for-hospital drunk. take away the name and literally no1 would guess that's Lone in their lifetime. hahaha
sorry i hurt your lil feelings, but thats what you get. i'd fuck you up more but you're not worth the effort. you're a complete failure. piss off, you're not wanted. (anywhere)
you know the best part? you got vis raped once I started to barely sober up (cause cockroaches like yourself need to be shut the fuck up). and right after you got raped off. cause you knew what's coming. total degenerate toxic dumbfuck.
run fast and far from me faggot ;)
i don't need to make a point tbh, you're miserable on your own already and have doomed yourself.
I am done with you here.
Everybody knows you've lost. Coward.
-
Lone sounds like it's time for you to take a break from war2.
-
Easy to fake-drunk when you're getting spanked like you were. I get it, your pride took a big hit that night. You claim to have never lost a series in 2+ years, yet here we are. Replays to prove it. With the literal beating you received i can't blame you for being upset, really I can't. I used to get upset like that as well back in the day. The only difference is that I was 12 years old and you are...25+? You being a sore loser can't even say gg when destroyed. Bad manners lone, bad manners..
-
See, you ruined it Lone. I hope that when you sleep that you dream about it. And when you dream I hope you can't sleep and you scream about it. I hope that your conscience eats at you and you can't breath without me.
-
People complain about smurfs (I admit I do) but this is exactly why some people smurf. If they know they aren't going to be at their best, drunk, high, fucking around, they have to risk their reputation. So, people smurf.
If I beat U8 on a smurf, nobody is going to know it was him and he wouldn't admit it was him and rightfully so. How much have we ever seen Bara play? He smurfs obviously. He won't say it, because that makes him look better, but he does.
I'm not a anti Bara guy or a pro lone guy but I do have common sense and logic. I've seen Lone play the best of the best many times. Lone would either not lose or not get raped by anyone on here. (MAYBE Swift? warmed up, prime, not in shape, etc all seem to come into play so idk, not the argument to make here)

Yes this is why I wouldn't ever support ending smurfing on the server.
-
I do smurf. But realistically I only play in public gow team games. I haven't been a competitive 1v1 player since 2011 before I quit and came back in late 2019. I'm not even a full time player. Ive played maybe 600 games total since 2019. All the more reason to make fun of the nerd that is lone. He initiated the trash talk and then proceeded to get demolished by me. I can respect a good player when I see one, lone is a good player. He is just butthurt that I steamrolled him on 2 different settings. It is eating him up inside that he has to live with this shame and embarrassment forever. Anytime you log on you will see lone playing, this is his life. At least 6 hours a day everyday. Me? 6 hours a month if I'm lucky.

True.
-
The most active time with the most players online is typically 2-4pm u.s. central.
That's why most tournaments get hosted then
-
Yeah we're talking about the DAY not the time....
-
geez lone you should really chill man. start jogging or something.

Yes Saturdays rock! :P
-

I was talking about the Day and The Time. That is the most active time and day on our server
-
I will host a Saturday tournament in a month or so. I like to see other people play as well. I'm just saying that is why most tournaments are hosted at that time on Sunday
-
I will probably host a chop tournament the month after that

Sounds good!

finally got around to watching these and wow! i figured bara was better but didnt think he'd win in every phase of the game like he did. pretty dominating victory, lone you cant even make excuses for that one.
