Here's the think with manual in a larger setting like this. There are enough players who really dislike it, enough that it essentially kills this type of tournament. Same with freestyle.
Part of the issue is that there are enough players who want to play these to make it worthwhile to put them in.

Benga you are correct (I cut and pasted the list) so maps like clandamonium aren't available at the moment (although its possible they will be out of beta for later rounds)

Actually, I didn't really see any restriction with regards to Beta on the OP. I wouldn't be against seeing them in play.

With regards to the unlimited forts, most of them look okay, but I don't really agree with the inclusion of Poker Club and Route 66 in that list. It doesn't really tie up with the others, except perhaps that it starts with a lot of neutrals in 1v1? Thats not enough to join the others in my book tho...

I didn't see any prohibition on Beta either. I don't care either way though.

Oh, serious question, can a player use Random as his/her map? I've got a player, who will remain unnamed (lfaw you know who you are), that would like to use Random as his map. I told him no initially, but then when I looked at the rules I didn't see any prohibition against it so...thoughts?

I'm in favor of it, personally. It's an interesting strategy - keeps the other clan from being able to provide a specialist at a certain home map.

I'm against freestyle & manual. I'd prefer no beta, I'd like to see random being able to be included.

my $0.02.

Looks like i didn't get Beta included when I moved the rules over and re-typed them. I'm going to add it in now as the no-beta restriction is a fairly standard clan war restriction. I personally like Beta but am trying to stick with usual clan styles.

Random is allowed.

Looks like signups end today, it would've been nice to see some of the other notables participate

12 clans. Very nice.

Question: Does random fall into the "a map may only be used twice per round" guideline?

by **barterer2002** on Mon Feb 14, 2011 7:36 pm

Hi mviola, I did catch it, you'll notice that you guys are listed 11th on the list (its in order-roughly-of sign up).

12 clans are in and I've PMed the contacts to rank the other 11 each. Clans have until Thursday the 18th for that.

Sorry, I saw Imperial Dragoons listed and not us when I posted, so I was just wondering.

Good idea, btw!

I have a suggestion.
I suppose some players with high rank are maybe not be in this competition (not speaking about me, it is just supposing that it can happen) because they not want to loose their points in some 1v1's which is often based on luck.
so, maybe good suggestion would be to ornagize matches like in chess competition. #1 ranked player from clan A plays home and away vs #1 ranked fom clan B, #2 ranked plays vs #2 etc.

if #1 ranked from clan A wants to play 5 games, then he used the first 5 tables, so if the first 5 ranked from clan B wants to play 1 game each, they will each face one game vs #1 from clan A.

so, just fill the tables according to player rank, I think it would add some new level of competition to this challenge.

in that case, you would maybe not need for tie breaker game, the winner of the first table (where plays both clan's #1 seeds) can be tie breaker, like in chess.
