We will be running MLG maps and game types.

A team can sub as many players as they like but only before/after a series has finished.

A series will be best out of three maps, with the first map being a team slayer and a variant to follow.

In the event of a draw, the third map shall be played, team slayer for the purpose of saving time. If a team wins two to nothing, the third map doesn’t have to be played.

In the event of a tie for position, the score between the teams in question will be taken into account.

A coin toss at the start of the series will decide which team picks the first map/game type. The other team will then pick the second map. The third map if not agreed will be decided on a coin toss.

If you are more than five minutes late joining your game (without any technical problems, and it’s your own doing) then the game will start without you and you will not be able to join while the game is underway.

A team may play with no less than three players.

Two well known veterans appear before the groups begin and join! However, they were unseeded and had to join the final group, the word spread around quickly and that group was soon referred to as the ‘Death Group’.

Danny, a well respected Tekken veteran made it just on time to compete and limited himself to using only three characters!

A group of six enters the tournament each with a personal vendetta against OnTheBeat! Each one of them entered with the sole purpose of knocking OnTheBeat out of the tournament! Due to the tough groups, only Potato Funk managed to get out the groups but was eliminated straight away by Kaworu.

Elimination rounds begin! OnTheBeat starts the last 16 off being light-heartedly boo’d’ but OnTheBeat proves them wrong and smugly walks into the last 8.

Unbelievable match between SlimAdey and Umer, both very skilled veterans battle it out to 2 rounds each! Match point and SlimAdey dominates with Bob but fails to finish Umer’s Devil Jin off! Umer sees a small opening and lands a juggle which almost takes out SlimAdey, the crowd gasps thinking a come back was on for SlimAdey but Umer cleverly wraps things up with a quick downward laser. This game won “Game of the Day” voted by participants.

Yingah misses out on the quarter-finals by a slither of health and knocking Asian Dragunov out for good. He takes a two round lead and dominates the third round but misses the last hit and as a result gives A.Dragunov a chance to counter taking three consecutive rounds with plenty of hop-kicks.

Quarter-finals begin with Kaworu and A.Dragunov, whom both have a strong rivalry between them. A.Dragunov uses Dragunov to secure the first game with more hop kicks and strings. Kaworu switches to Lee in the second game from Lars and takes the second game, with a wall-less stage! The impressed crowd cheers Kaworu on roaring at the excitement. Kaworu receives a small walled stage from random select and performs a wonderful array of wall trapping combinations and knocks A.Dragunov out with style. A.Dragunov crashes out of the quarter finals as Kaworu proceeds, the cheers and roars rumble through the building.

Only four remains and nothing less expected from these top four players, all acknowledged being the best in Manchester.

Steptoe Akira takes on Umer which becomes an entertaining Mishima battle! Kazuya vs Kazuya! Steptoe Akira proves his abilities taking the first game. Umer switches to Ling Xiaoyu to play a higher tempo game. Steptoe Akira still prevails and advances to the finals.

Danny takes the final position after defeating Kaworu with Julia and Zafina. They both shake hands to acknowledge each others abilities.

Final match. Danny vs Steptoe Akira. Zafina vs Kazuya. Danny takes the first game confusing S.Akira with strange mixed strings but S.Akira controls the second game with high and low wave dashing mix-ups. Danny sticks to Zafina and keeps his cool avoiding attacks and punishing them with some crazy launchers. Match leads to two rounds each and Danny strings together an array of confusing lows and mids. S.Akira gets caught with little health and drops his hands expecting defeat, whilst the crowd cheers and raises the roof. All it took was for one more hit and the match would be over and Danny would have taken the ranking battle for his own, however he misses the last hit and S.Akira quickly composes himself to end the match with a powerful god fist juggle.
Steptoe Akira finishes 1st with composure and raw skill whilst Danny takes 2nd missing out on top spot by a slither of health. Kaworu finishes 3rd after a high speed match against Umer who respectively takes 4th.

1. Tournament Format

The tournament will be played with the Search & Destroy game type with promod 4.42

2. Cheating & Exploits

Punkbuster will be enabled

Illegal Binds are defined as;
Any binding of three or more keys.
Binds that alter the map model, i.e.: no fog, no foliage, etc.
Any binds pointed to any program or function that resides outside of the CoD4 directory, with the exception of voice comms software.

Permitted Bindings include;
Changes to assigned stock single key game play binds.
Binding of not more than two motion keys (Example: bind a +leanright;+moveright)
If you have a non-stock binding that you’re unsure is legal, or have a binding that you would like to have approved for use in match play, submit the information to an admin for clarification and/or consideration. Any player found using illegal binds will be subject to possible removal from the competition.

Use of Exploits
Map exploits defined: Map exploits are errors or oversights in map design made by the map developer that provide an unfair advantage to a player or a team.

Such exploits include but are not limited to: the ability to lean through, pass through, and see through walls, doors, and windows, and use of clipped or defective map passages to access areas outside the normal playing area.

Proof of exploits: Any dispute made for use of exploits must be supported with evidence. Any player, group of players, or team proven to be using illegal map exploits or boosting will be subject to loss of match points and possible expulsion from the Cup. Anyone found cheating will face a match forfeit and/or removal of team from the competition.

3. Match Demo

We ask that each player records a demo of every match they play. Any suggestion of unfair play can then be resolved swiftly and fairly. The demo is to be started before the match begins, and turned off when the match is over. Demo’s must be kept on file for the duration of the competition.

To record a match demo take the following steps:

1. To begin demo drop your console and type in /record nameofdemo. Where nameofdemo could be anything you wish.
2. To end demo drop your console and type in /stoprecord.
3. To playback demo load the game, drop console, and type in /demo nameofdemo.

4. Search and Destroy

You will win by completing 24 rounds on one map and adding up round victories. Search & Destroy mode will be two halves of 12 rounds. Each team will play each side once, bashing for sides to decide. After the first half has been completed, screenshots of the score must be taken and then teams will switch sides and finish the match.

Once the match has completed, the round scores from both half’s are tallied, with the team having the most rounds winning the match. NOTE: A draw is acceptable in the group stages. A tie-break only takes place in the elimination/final stages if needed.

5. Maps

The following maps will be used throughout the competition. Each map played will be selected beforehand by our Tournament System. The map list is as follows:
* mp_backlot
* mp_crash
* mp_vacant
* mp_citystreet
* mp_strike

6. Server Setup

The servers will be setup and ready prior to the competition, this is to allow players to practice before the tournament starts. Any problems with the servers should be reported immediately to an admin.

7. The Match Process

Starting the Match

Prior to starting a match all players should be on the server and each player matched against the teams list signed up for the Tournament. All players will join their respective starting sides. Team captains will verify that their players have begun demo recording. Team captains will communicate that they are ready to start. The server admin will restart the server in order for the knife round to begin. The knife round will be to decide sides. If anyone on the opposite team is injured by gunfire or grenade damage during the PB round the offending team forfeits the bash.

It is the responsibility of the team captain to insure that his/her team is on the match server at the time the match is set to be played, and with the minimum number of required eligible players, 3 (Three). If a team fails to appear with the minimum number of players required they must play with players short or report a forfeit loss.

There is a fifteen minute time limit set. Teams have until 3:15PM to comply with match requirements. If after 3:15PM they are not ready they must immediately report the forfeit loss.

Ending the Match

A match is considered officially completed when both sides of the map have been played and the time and/or rounds have expired.

Substitutions

Only players signed up on the team list may be used as substitutes. Only a maximum of 2 subs.

Tie-Breaker & Overtime (Applies to Final Only)

If the match ends up in a tie after both sides have been played then you will proceed to overtime, or referred to here as the “Tie-breaker.” The tie-breaker will be as follows:

Format is the best of 5 rounds. An admin chooses side order for rounds 1 & 2. Teams switch sides for rounds 3 & 4. 5th and final round, if necessary, we will either allow admin to pick side, or flip a coin for sides. The first team to win 3 rounds in the Tie-Breaker wins the match.

*As previous tournaments proved to be a nightmare with teams not showing up. We will only have a maximum of 8 teams for this tournament.

Unlike previous tournaments, we will have a league format. Two leagues will be created with teams allocated randomly in no particular order. Top two teams of each league will progress to the knockout stages (single elimination)

Max Rounds 12
Round Time 1min 20secs (1.33)
$800 Start Money

Map Pool
------------
de_dust2
de_inferno
de_train
de_nuke

We will assign maps to group stages randomly. For the semi and final, we will ask the two teams to eliminate a map (higher seed chooses first), and then have a coin toss for the remaining two maps to deicde which map to be played.

Simply Turn up at 11:30am to register for the event. Games will commence STRICTLY at 12:30.

We require everyone to have their own steam logins for the tournament if they have one, as we have a limit :( Unfortunately we are unable to do a 12 team tourny, due to time issues. ITS IMPORTANT THAT YOU TELL US IF YOU ARE NO LONGER COMING!

1) Match format

Max Rounds 12
$800 Start Money
1 min 20 second round time (1.33)

2) Joining the server.

Unless agreed to the contrary players should join the server on time for their match. A maximum of 15 minutes will be given after this time until the match begins. Teams should obtain the server details.

3) Players.

A team may play with less than five players but no less than three. Should the opposing team wish to drop players themselves to even up the teams then they may do so - but they do not have to.

4) Substitutions.

A team may substitute as many players as they wish during the course of a game though at no point must they have more than five players connected to the server. The extra players must pay the tournament fee to participate.

5) Voice communications.

Should a team experience difficulties with such a program then this will not be cause for pausing or halting the match, it is a teams own responsibility to ensure the operation of any such voice communication software. We have a TS2 server in place at Gamerbase. It is your responsibility to get here on time and tweak settings.

6) Tied games.

For group stages, matches which end with a 12-12 will be considered a draw and overtime to decide a winner is not required. One point will be awarded to each team. However for semi Final and Final overtime will be required.

7) Finishing the match.

As soon as one team has achieved a 13 round total the match is considered finished with the score at that being the final result. We do not object to all the rounds being played, but the final score will be 13-xx or in the event of a draw 12-12. The teams may leave the server at this point and no rounds will be forfeit. If a team leaves the server before a victory or draw has been achieved then all remaining rounds up to a total of 13 will be awarded to the team remaining on the server.

8) Reporting the result.

Team leaders are expected to report scores to the tournament admin on the day.

9) Specific in game rules.

Team choice will be handled by the age old practice of the slice and dice. The winning team may choose whether to start as ct or t on the map. If a player is injured by gunfire/grenade coming from the opposition his team may claim the knife round by default immediately.

In the event that one or more players from each team are alive at the end of the knife round, the teams should "stay" and begin the match. If a team deliberately avoids the opponents in the knife round so that the round times out, the choice of teams may be given to the opponents at the match admin's discretion.

Grenades or flashes may be thrown over any roof or wall. IE - top of the alley into bomb site on de_inferno , or over wall into bomb site b on de_dust2. However, the use of known bugs (such as flashing between the boxes in site b on dust2, to gain an unfair advantage by "illegally" flashing opponents who are inside the house/tunnels) will be regarded as an exploit. A team may forfeit the round in question should a complaint be upheld by the admin. A simple comment typed in to alert the admin to the violation, will allow the admin to review the round later on hltv. The admin may award the round against the offenders at his discretion.

Shields are not to be used in any match. Should a player use a shield whether or not they bought it themselves, they will be asked to discard the item. All rates and server settings are enforced by Gamerbase configuration files and must not be changed.

10) Defaults.

Where a fixture is in default by one of the teams the opposition will receive a win and be awarded three points. No rounds for or against will be entered into the league table.

11) Recording demos.

All participants are advised to record a demo of their matches, in an instance where you feel certain exploits were encountered, or you feel the opponents cheated.

Screen watching is strictly forbidden. Any form of cheating or hacking will result in disqualification in the tournament.

FORZA 3 Fastest Lap




Chuzzle High Score

The groups looked like this:

Group 1

Deathstars
Heavenly Hell
Zero Tolerance
Heretic

Group 2

PAOR
STK
ID
Foubia


Each match consisted of best of 3 games. The gametypes were:

Game 1 - MultiFlag Heretic
Game 2 - Team King Construct
Game 3 - Team Slayer Amplified

Group 1 Results

1st - Zero Tolerance (3 Wins)
2nd - Heavenly Hell (2 Wins)
3rd - Heretic (1 Win)
4th - Deathstars (0 Wins)


Group 2 Results

1st - STK (3 Wins)
2nd - Foubia (2 Wins)
3rd - ID (1 Win)
4th - PAOR (0 Wins)

So... Zero Tolerance, Heavenly Hell, STK and Foubia all qualified for the double elim tournament. The best third place team was Heretic who also qualified.

Zero Tolerance dominated the tournament, getting to the final without losing a match.

Heavenly Hell and STK were also strong contenders and competition between them was fierce. STK beat Heavenly Hell in the early stages of the tournament, but Heavenly Hell fought their way back through the losers bracket to meet STK once again in the semi-finals.

Tensions ran high in this match and both teams produced some of the best play of the tournament, and arguably the most exciting game. In the end Heavenly Hell managed to defeat STK 2 games to 1 to make it through into the final with Zero Tolerance.

The final was incredibly close with both teams playing excellently. In the end Zero Tolerance won the first game (MultiFlag) 5 captures to 4. The next game was Team Slayer and again Zero Tolerance just clinched it (50 kills to 41) and claimed the first prize.

Congratulations to both Zero Tolerance and to Heavenly Hell, and a massive thanks to all the teams who attended. We look forward to seeing you at the next one!!

TF2 10v10 was the highlight of night being popular throughout. Also avaiable was 5v5 Modern Warfare 2, 4vs4 Left 4 Dead 2, Street Fighter, Halo and Fifa.

Prizes were given away for highest frags/scores and everyone in attendance came away with something.

Highlight of the night was PC Gamers exclusive "community rocket launcher" which boasted multiple rockets at once and no cooldown time, it caused havoc.

To end the night Gamerbase Staff took on the PC Gamer staff in a 5v5 Modern Warfare 2 challenge. Needless to say Gamerbase won the round with some outstanding play :).
