Make the Cake: Battle of the Birthdays

(1/8) > >>

James T. Kirk:
The first Cake hosted event!
And just in time for the birthday festivities!

WATCH OUR AWESOME VIDEO HERE

Good, so you’ve gone and watched it? Now for some details...

Time:

* Saturday 2nd of November at 9pm UTC (usual Cogs time)
(it would be amazing if you could be ready and in Crew Formation an hour early!)

How does it work?

* A “Team” will be entered by the contact person and consist of 4 members crewing together on one ship.
* Competing Clans can enter up to 3 “Teams.” Those ships will act as individual “Teams” and score points at a per-kill basis. (kill-stealing is encouraged)
* Substitutes can be shared among clans, but as soon as you play for a “Team” you are locked to it, even if the other “Team” is from your clan.
* Switching ships and load-outs during Lobby is allowed, but the “Team” has to stay together.

The Tiers of the Cake:



* Bottom Tier : the Base Tournament
Ships will compete in 4 different matches to score points. Should more than 6 "Teams" sign up, the "Bottom Tier" matches will spread over 2 or more lobbies. "Teams" with the most points will advance to the "Middle Tier."

* Middle Tier : the Finale
Participants will be the 4 (or 6) ships with the highest scores from the Bottom Tier. 3 matches will be played and after each match, 2 of the ships have to switch sides.
* Top Tier : (in Kirk’s voice) “Ultimate Cake Topper!”
The ship with the most points at the end of the Middle Tier will gain the grand title.
Maps:

* Any and all Deathmatch Maps are allowed.
* The next map will be determined before your match and told to you by your referee.
Points:

* 2 Points for winning a Match per “Team” with the winning color.
* 1 Point additional for the “Team”-ship that made the kill.
Rules:

* More than 50% fire weapons
* All sides of a ship should have at least 1 fire weapon
* No gunners allowed on Heavy Weapon ships. Heavy Weapons will be loaded with Incendiary Rounds and Heatsink only. (No vanilla rounds!)
* Everyone is obligated to say “happy birthday” at the end of each match, or at the VERY least “gg HB!”
* Ship changes, load-out changes, and any sudden replacements have to be announced by text or voice to your announcer and co-players. (It’s just polite)
* Specific restrictions are applied to certain ships.
Classified as “Fire Weapons”:

* Banshee Light Carousel
* Dragon Tongue Light Flamer
* Hades Light Cannon
* Beacon Light Flare Gun
* Phobos Light Mine Launcher
Sign up:
As previously stated, a clan may enter up to 3 “Teams”, but they require individual Clan-tags.
(P.S. It might end up on a Tier of our Cake-score board, so if your Clan-tag is short for something, write down the long version next to it.)

* Introduction
* Clan-tags and Crew
* Steam profile of the contact person   
Let me give you an example:

But I don't have a Clan!
Well, this is your chance to find 3 friends and make one!
(But be sure to have substitutes in case one of you can't make it)
Other than that, we'd love to have you!
See? It's that easy!


I STILL HAVE QUESTIONS!
Please check up on our FAQs, we shall update them as much as we can!


Sign UP! And see you there!
Happy Birthday from the Cakes!

N-Sunderland:
What are the rules with regards to ship usage? It's not actually stated within the rules whether you can switch to another ship between matches.

Dutch Vanya:
RSVP: Can attend. Will burn things. Ship pending.

Gryphos:
Question: Are Cake members available for subs if necessary?

James T. Kirk:
The post has been streamlined and updated.

Questions have been answered in an FAQ area if not re-defined in the rules.

Thanks, all!
