breaking up people playing randomly = opportunity for group of friends to game the system = splitting the prizes between the friends = waste of time for organizer
hope that makes sense as well.
if you don't know what gaming the system means then yeah, you probably should just stick to whatever is easier to understand since that works for you.

good luck.

One thing, the age limit is rather high. I highly recommend that you allow gamers who have parental consent and are below 16yrs of age to play. If this is okay for CEL2007 i don't see why you shouldn't do the same.

Hm...

So king kong, what are ur response to what I have proposed to u?

Yepz waiting and waiting. Today's SnD was rather... alright... Need more practice if we were to play in the tourny. But I think if King Kong wants to play Search and Destroy in the tourny, the teams should be fixed or the rounds will be very mixed up since everybody aren't going to be very coordinated.

Lol todays 1 was not bad la besides a few @ holes team killing....SnD really need teamwork and hardcore mode is dam cool..

Hardcore mode is only fun to play on those modes and when the game isn't overly packed.

Added on January 17, 2008, 6:33 pmAlright, I think quite a lot of people knows about the tourny but don't bother to check this forum for it. The other day I typed into the game and said "Go check lowyat.net for ..........." and I heard somebody saying out loud to his friends "What la this guy.. Hahah"

GRRRR!!! GRRRR!!!!

Wazap shifty....GG hope 2 see u on the field more often....btw Kong any news? its been awhile man.. and are we going 2 have any weapon banning? cuz Ashley told me that day that P90 is generally banned from most tornys...if so plz inform so can train other weapons

Hi Shifty and Holyboy.

Seriously, we need conformation regarding the tourny. Rules, players, modes, etc. Without that, cant do much other than trying to complete all the challeges.

@Xionus, still waiting for comformation fron King Kong. If victory is based on fixed teams then the price will be larger but splited between members and if each team has 8 players, the price becomes rather small even if it was RM4k for the winner. I suggest this:

More players = Bigger Prices

1 player = RM20 ---->Entry cost
8 players = RM 160 -----> Entry cost per team

If there were lets say.... 10 teams = 80 players -----> RM1600.
Don't ya think it is kinda little? RM1600 divided by 8 players gives RM200 and not to mention, there are 2nd and 3rd place too and maybe some for the organizer?


On the other hand, if it was an individual match and if 80 players join equating to RM1600 and maybe there can be 1st - 5th place or till 3rd place, whichever you deem reasonable.
1st place = RM700
2nd place = RM500
3rd place = RM200
4th place = RM100
5th place = RM100



Or you can get sponsorships to increase the price weightage but I'm not an organizer so I'm not familiar with this kind of arrangements.

everyone, im still planning on this, its not just a matter of the prizes but many other aspects not seen by you guys.

i'll try to firm things up before CNY, but the tourney will mostly be sometime end Feb.

hold on to your ammo clips!

Ok kong thks 4 replying thought u dono go where d nvm bro we know its hard 2 set up a torny... just keep up posted ^^

Somehow I think haviig fixed teams would be quite fun. I've just been thinking... If you had fixed teams, you encourage more teamwork which is much much different from just a usual day at the cafe. Most of the time, I enter Tbun, get a com, sit down and play a TDM. Even if I had my friends or cousins tag along and on the same team, we don't do much team work but rather, we fend out for ourselves. But if you had fixed teams and gave the teams more time to train, you will see a whole new level for CoD4 being played in the tournament. I hope you guys are on the same page as I am here.

Its just a thought.
Fixed teams = More Teamwork = Pushing up CoD4 to a new level during the tourny.



Oh, when is Chinese New Year anyway? 6th of Feb 2008? Hmm..

zz Ash u set a team up together we GG d lol i personally dont mind but i cant get a team together lol its just me and "BlackDog" but if the torny is to intro ppl to this game then Random is ok...but if ur going 4 new level of game play then of coz team setting is much better

Me and my other friend are looking for a team to join as well,maybe we should form a small team.. i love playing tactically with a team

I suggest the hardcore mode. Especially if it's anything below 5 vs 5. For one thing, teamwork actually really matters, nobody can run around on their own using a grenade launcher. That's likely to get you spotted fast and killed. Since there's a spawn time, the team that has the most players for the longest time will obviously have an advantage. The grenade launcher becomes less gay with a reasonably sized map. Nobody is forced to stay too close and be taken out with one shot. And since there is no mini map usually, you can't fire in the general direction of red dots and hope to get a kill. There is a question about perks though. For diversity and strategy, I suggest that everyone uses an account which has all the perks activated and simply change the handle. A form of "hack" would do the job . There is a problem with teams since not everyone can set up a team. So I suggest that those without teams enter a pool which is randomly set up into teams. Those who have teams will obviously have no problem. Besides I see alot of the same ppl playing COD4, could just recruit ppl over a game.

Holyboys, teamwork is important. No matter how skill a player is, if him/her or the team doesn't have teamwork then the team is as good as dead since with good teamwork, traps can be set up and so on. Nothing has been confirmed yet regarding random or fixed teams so I guess we'll have to wait. CNY is soon so I guess we shall have our answer soon.

Shifty, yeah. Teamwork would make the game much more fun than the usual pubbing style. Spawn, catch fishes, die, spawn catch fishes... LoL... Thats why recently I've been focusing on the challenges... Still remember the one I finished on you.

DeOmen, hey there! Nice to see new people here. Thats good
Yeah, thats what I proposed. In small matches, Hardcore would be sweet but in big matches, hardcore is a no-no. Enter page 3 of this topic and look at King Kong's 1st post there. There is a file to download and it contains a rough idea of how our tournament is going to be like. It hasn't been confirmed but thats just a guide line for ya.
You propose that everybody should be level 55 and using the same profile but just change the multiplayer name? I don't think that is possible because that will cause a clash of CDkey. The game will reject all the other CDkey except the 1st player who entered the game with it.
Regarding the Pool of Players, that would work but some people might be unhappy.





Well, because this game is new and I think my clan is the only clan around Tbun Aman Suria area, some people would have a lot of trouble making teams. In this case I think a notice of the tourny should be made about 1 and a half months before it takes place. Giving enough time for people to make clans and therefore no lost players. I can't wait till the day CoD4 becomes like what Counter Strike used to be.



P/S: Actually... my clan is just me in it... HAhahha! I like the X-Lw. Thats all. LoL.
