Anyone interested in a 2v2 tournament in the next few weeks?

[GodlikeDennis]

As successful as the last tournament was, since only 1v1s were played I feel a lot of people felt excluded because of the more competitive nature. So, if a more relaxed 2v2 tournament were hosted right here on this site rather than GR, would you be interesting in playing?

I say this because I feel our little community needs to truly create a buzz. Lots of people feel that nobody plays EF so why should they bother. If we showed them that we even organise our own tournaments, more people might pick up the mod.

Who would be up for it?

Am in, as long as I dont have to fool around with my router and fiddle with ports. I feel more comfortable fighting with someone.

You shouldn't have to. As long as you would be able to connect to your partner, he can host and you'll be able to play with everyone.

Count me in, what time?

Not really since I'm not organising one, just gauging interest.

please list the maps first if you would like to play on maps from automatch I'm in, if you're going to have final on acheloous river I'm not interested :p

I don't think that "this community" has to stay "alone" though... asking gr.org for help/support (they've got a lot of players around their site and a lot of experience organising tourneys) would definitely help this thing out so I don't understand why you don't want it.

Any map but Vire, Lyon, Achelous, Gilroys are potentially on the table. It would be the same setup as the last tourney, players can decide between themselves what maps to play (not one of those mentioned above). I would suggest rails, duclair, lorraine, etavaux, pointe, macgechans(?), wolfheze, kursk and tannenburg as excellent choices. Many of the other EF maps aren't that great though.

The reason why we don't need GR for this is it is more of a fun relaxed tourney. Many people didn't play in the last one because of setting up the screenshotter/posting replays on GR/1v1s are competitive. It would be more of a day where everyone rocks up and knows exactly who they'll be playing and be able to have a good structured day of EF (with some bragging rights if you happen to win). We should still require people to post the replays in the tourney thread but nothing beyond that.
