Back To Basics 2.1 Sign-ups!!

<< < (2/4) > >>

Chase.:
I just wanted to let you know that I appreciate your effort in organizing an event like this. Sadly, this week my team wasn't available, but I'm constantly trying to get them to join :)
There is certainly interest in a casual / 'less competitive' event. I think one reason we have few sign-ups is that most players still see themselves as beginners (we certainly are!), and don't dare to join. Maybe it would help if you called this thing explicitly a "Beginner Tournament", "Novice training brawl", or whatever is suited.

Thank you for the encouragement! This event doesn't exclude any team, regardless of level, which is why it's not specifically called one of the above names you mentioned. However, it definitely is more oriented towards teams that just want to work on getting a competitive team started, getting a team back into the swing of things or maybe just a weekly event that they don't have to organize themselves. In the rules it mentions that as we set up the matches randomly but if we feel there is an unnecessary "stomp" we reserve the right to re-shuffle the matches. If we were to have something like 2 newer teams and 2 experienced teams sign up (assuming they are 4-player teams) than one of each would be on a team to try to "balance" and our hope would be that the older team would help educate the newer team. This event is all about practice and giving an event that's not competitive so teams can build up and work towards doing more competitive things like the SCS and tournaments like Cronus.
 
Hope your team gets a chance to sign up for this week!
See you in the skies.

If there is another such event, i would be more than happy to scour up a couple of friends, and join. last time i wasnt sure what Guagadu was trying to sell me, so i regretfully declined. now knowing that it is a practice event for members to get into competitive i think its a great idea, and would gladly join, in case there is another event as such...

It is supposed to happen every Sunday.

In my opinion the old time should be brought back. So many people arent home by 5 pm and 1 hour or 30 mins should be just enough time to take a break if youre going to participate in scs afterwards.
