The "We Hate Field Trips" Mini Rumble (August 3rd @ 2pm EST)

(1/8) > >>

Urz:
"I'm sure everyone can recall a time in their childhood where they had to deal with the prospects of an undesirable field trip. Whether it's to the box factory, an American baseball game, or the Spire dis-assembly line, you know that hours of boredom are ahead. But wait! If you just 'misplace' that permission slip, you get to hang out in the classroom playing video games with your buddies, as you have a sub with no planned assignments."

-Abraham Lincoln

The "We Hate Field Trips" Mini Rumble is a one-time event being run for those who don't necessarily want a "trip to the box factory", and would rather play some competitive GOIO on their Saturday. The structure is a four team, single-elimination bracket, which will be first-come, first-served (sign up in this thread).

The format is simple. Each set is a best of three with no restrictions on weapon or ship choice. There will be a total of three sets played in the bracket, and the only rule for substitutes is a player can't fly with two different teams. The map pool is as follows: Canyon Ambush, Duel at Dawn, Northern Fjords, Paritan Rumble. The map order for each set will be randomly generated.

To sign up, RSVP in this thread. There are only four guaranteed spots available. You may also contact me on Steam.

would you be willing to run more groups of 4 teams if you get some help monitoring it?

The first four teams are guaranteed spots. If however eight teams sign up, I'll run two brackets.

Squash:
This would run simultaneous to, or at least dangerously close to the Spire tournament, which was
A) Announced first
B) Muse official stamped

So The Paddling will skip this one.

Charon:
Not just Duck unity on this one. Setting up an unofficial event in close proximity to an officially sanctioned tournament seems like a pretty disrespectful move. Not to take anything away from Mr Lincoln up there, but his statement about the spire dis assembly line only further confirms that this was the intent.

RAFT 's out.
