Heh,now that I'm done with my DotA game (actually disconnected due to Linksys Ip Conflict problem),I'll comment now.
Ok,so you want a casual tourney,that'd be great since groups that train together would dominate the tourney,so a mix of people would be awesome. Only thing is it's gonna get messy,so I suggest you have like an hour(plus half an hour if needed) of briefing and mixing before competition starts. Before mixing,split experienced and casual players into 2 groups,then start mixing.
Right,since we're done with the mixing and briefing beforehand,players need to get to know each other a bit,so another 10 min for Ice Breaking session. Yes,I know it's gonna be long,but what can we do,you're mixing up people. Ok,fine,for the moment I can't really comment cause I don't know what mode you want for your tourney. The mode is the most important to decide. Best to decide now than later so people can comment on why certain maps are imbalanced for certain modes. Preferably Hardcore Search and Destroy(it's exactly like CS,please don't tell me you don't know how to plant a bomb,briefing will teach/teammates teach), Hardcore Team Deathmatch (plain killing) or Sabotage. I recommend 6 people per team.
Well,6 people is a good number.For example,if a player is at his peak on that day,let's say each team players set to 7,one person kills all,that person gets a chopper for the next round.So,for the next round he calls in the chopper,waits for his chopper to do some massive killing(the chopper AI is pretty smart and shoots through walls) and gets an easy win(1 round) for his team. But if players set to 6 each,the most you can get is an Airstrike which is good if aimed properly but that's the most you can get.An airstrike. <Based on Hardcore SND mode>
I prefer it to be in the morning till evening. I doubt people would want to come to tourneys that are late night,some might not make it.Although,morning can be the same too...hmm....just my POV that it should be in the morning so you have more time to start and finish up.
Just to let you know,I'm not usually playing it on a PC, I'm actually an COD4 X360 player,so I play almost every night online. But nowadays I like to head over to TBun in the afternoon and play.Different feeling playing it on a PC rather than on the console,and I still prefer using a controller
@Holyboy: Thanks for the welcome! xD I'm usually checking the X360 threads but I'll update myself on this thread cause I'm interested.Haha...
Pika out~~~
