I know.

By the way, there are 4 clans that have expressed initial interest and are actively putting together teams. I will send PMs to other clan leaders tomorrow to gain some more clans. If someone is reading this thread but is not a member of a clan, there are 2 options available. 1) Gather up some other players and submit an eticket to start a new clan (even if it's just temporary). 2) Wait around in case I don't get 12 clans to join because then I will need open teams as well.

I can assume that the Pheonix Warlords will be in... ill make a post and gather teams

EDIT: you said we need 2 players per 1v1 or singles event? so then that means 8 total individual players for each of those types right?

REEDIT: lol, i mean to say track events... so are they the same? can every member only participate in 1 track event?

Another important question:

What will the rules be in regards to game joining? - joining second affords benefits to both fog games and to freestyle ones - in the case of freestyle team games, the team joining second has an overwhelming advantage.

And in the same vein - what checks can there be in terms of "strategic account sitting", especially as it applies to team freestyle, as I know of a number of clans whose members seem to relatively freely take each others terms.

These freestyle related issues are likely to be the only ones that would prevent us from competing (and this may apply to other "high ranking" clans too)... how set on including freestyle are you?

The 1v1 and Singles events, a single person can only play 1 of each (so you can't play all 4 1v1 and I can't play all 4 Singles). Someone can enter as many track events as they want because there needs to be 2 players from your team in each of them (except for the relays).

Benjikat:

I included freestyle to try to incorporate all the settings. But I made sure to limit them because of the general dislike in a competitive environment such as this. The first round will probably be a round robin pool play type, so I'll make sure to split things between teams being Team 1 or Team 2 to split the ability to go first. In general, think of it as this: In every event, someone has to start out with the ball.

If there are requests from most of the clans to remove the freestyle, I will consider taking it out. But it's staying for now (it only covers 4 or 5 events anyway).

OK let's see what happens.

Another small point - there is no 800m relay in the real olympics - there are 100m and 400m, rather than 400m and 800m.

by **dcc1220** on Fri Jul 11, 2008 10:07 am

They should probably be called 400m relay and 1600m relay or 4x100 relay and 4x400 relay.

Are you kidding me?!?!?! Geez, I thought I checked on that. That makes me upset. I'll switch it to 4x100 and 4x400. Thanks for pointing out my problems.

I only hope to be in a clan soon enough to be a part of this.

EDIT: I have aplyed in one already

Yes.

by **Night Strike** on Fri Jul 11, 2008 5:42 pm

The Freestyle setting on both the doubles and triples events have been removed.

It will stay for the singles events, but there are stipulations.

If there is any evidence of anyone using unfair freestyle tactics such as running the clock out for a double turn, the offending player will receive last place in that game and may be expelled from the tournament. The Olympics are built on honor and fair play, so I will have nothing less than the same in this tournament.
