Shouldn't it even out? Warpath 2 times and dustbowl 2 times?
I'm a little confused.
The three team format is kinda confusing but it does even out. Here is Team 1:

Team 1 plays Warpath on Saturday 7 PM
Team 1 plays Warpath on Saturday 8 PM
Team 1 plays Dustbowl on Sunday 8 PM
Team 1 plays Dustbown the next Saturday at 8 PM

EDIT: Darn y'all replying while I type!

I think for a true reflection of dustbowl you have to move the events server so my ping isn't 120 while spamming chokes.

During a match, what will the 4 players not part of the 12 player team be doing?
Will there be anyway for those 4 players to watch the match?
Will substitutions happen during a match or is the 12 player selection final for that specific match?

Also how about the idea of adding either VI or VIII to our name to show what map we're representing? Or is that too much of an us vs them sort of idea

Wait...I thought that was the idea on RED...isn't that just called defense?

(1) The 4 players will be alternates for your team. If someone is a no show, or drops during the match, your captain will pick one of you to jump in game. Leading from this, substitutions from your team can happen at a captain's discretion at any time before or during a match. If no one on your team is free to sub in, an admin will randomly pick from the alternate pool to fill that slot.

(2) For the naming thing, that veers a little too much towards the us vs them. I would recommend you run MATEO in your name instead to pay homage to me.

On an unrelated note, you may notice I'm a member of your steam group. I am actually not on any team, but I'm part of each team's steam groups to help facilitate any planning.

(3) Source TV should be up for team subs/alternates to watch the matches. I'm not 100% on this, but I believe it either has a 3 or 5 minute delay to prevent nefarious activities from its use.

Team Members and info thread updated with information on reserving the events server for scrims/strategy and also on the use of teamspeak.

We appreciate the Source TV feed. I like it a lot, it's a luxury. I think it's a 5 minute delay.

Typically, all team members will be in Teamspeak with TF2 running. That way, if someone drops another player can take over right away. Or perhaps a team might swap a player strategically. Basically, you watch the game on Source TV while listening for your captain to call your number- from the future.

I was wondering why you wanted access. And my response was to close off our forums....

Source TV does delay about two minutes. If an alternate is needed, the admins for the event should have a list handy and start contacting folks on the list to find a sub. Might be worth starting a group Steam or TS chat for the alts so they can be easily grabbed.

I would take umbrage at your use of the word "turtle". But I stole the text of your signature the other day.

Nah, use multiple Pyros. And a single Medic. Especially Otaru's team.

Otaru's team definitely needs multiple medics. Otherwise I'll have to focus too much on healing and leave my ubersaw holstered more than I'd prefer.

Easter Sunday

Post by sn-fweep » Thu Mar 21, 2013 8:02 pm

Sunday the 31st is Easter. I move we reschedule for three consecutive weekends not to include Easter Sunday. I suspect I'm not the only one who has family events to deal with.
