Hey everyone. The rosters have been posted in the sticky at the top of the forum. If you have any questions, feel free to post here. I've received a few questions, so I thought it'd be best if you ask your questions here so everyone can see the answers.
 
One I've received from several people

How long will the tournament last?
On Saturday, we start at 3PM EST and will most likely continue until 7PM EST. It will depend on how many teams are available, but that's about how long we continued on Saturday last year.

On Sunday, we sill start at 3PM EST. How long it continues depends on how many matches get done on the first day.
 
Will there be cake?

Seriously though, with teams having more than 3 people, are there any rules specifically in place regarding team line-ups from match to match? Like... say I play the first round then want to sit out the second so we can put another person in for the next map, is it just that simple?
 
Will other people be able to watch the matches?
And Tomain's first question.
 
I vote for having a remote replay bot and stream it, seph get your best ppl on it :P
 
Kazoo...you will have to pull Atari and Royal81 from the tournament as they will be at their grandparent's house for Christmas this weekend.

Sorry for the inconvenience.
 
What happens if one of your team mates has to miss the tournament? Would the team be disqualified?

Yes, it's that simple. There are no rules regarding which three members of your team can play. This is up to your team, but also depends on if your four members even show up.
Feel free to rotate out players as you play the matches.

Will other people be able to watch the matches?

I'll get back to you on this.

No problem. Their names have been removed from their teams' rosters.

It's inevitable that people will have to miss one or both days. This is why we have teams of four, so that hopefully you will have three players to play the matches.

Your team won't be disqualified for not having all members, but you'll be at a disadvantage if your team is missing people.

I have your answer: Yes, other people will be able to watch.

Only the two teams and the referee will join the League and Event server for the match, but we will have SourceTV enabled for our spectators to watch.

To watch the match, either add the SourceTV's IP to your favorites or type "connect: <SourceTV IP>" in console.

Here are the servers IP addresses and their respective Source TV IP addresses.

Event Server: 174.36.38.40:27015
Event SourceTV: 174.36.38.40:27020

League Server: 174.36.38.41:27015
League SourceTV: 174.36.38.41:27020

Aw, missed the sign-ups. :c too late?
You and one other player have messaged me about signing up. I am still considering this. If you are interested in watching and hopefully playing, I highly suggest you join us tomorrow in case a team is down a few players.
 
... I am still considering this. ...

One team only has three while the others have four... is there a reason why I can't fill up that space :P

Either way, I'll definitely attend even if it is just to watch although I would much enjoy participating.

Like I said, one other person asked me before you in a PM, so that one slot would go to him.

However, two teams have 3 players due to another player leaving the tournament, so you and the other player who have contacted me are now on the rosters. We're making this exception to hopefully minimize the chances of forfeit losses and since it won't mess up the bracket.
 
FYI:

The buffed weapons short circuit, diamondback, concheror, and battalion's backup were blacklisted as these changes can potentially be game-breaking.
 
I will not be there. I have Christmas cleaning to do. Team 6, Please sub accordingly.
 
I can't make it either. I'm back home from college and my gaming computer isn't running. Spending my Saturday afternoon fixing it... Hopefully I can get it up and going for tomorrow though.

Sorry team!

After each round, will the losing team be banned?
