The Sunday Community Skirmish is a double elimination tournament event that runs every week with occasional breaks. All matches are 2v2, time limited best of 1s and are normally streamed live on Twitch. Any team of 8 players is welcome to participate.
This signup thread is for the Skirmish at 7pm UTC on Sunday July 5th. (3pm EDT) The event is normally streamed by Fourth Oracle, as well as other streamers who vary from week to week. The details of all streams will be made clear on the day of or day before the event. The event has an expected runtime of 2-4 hours.
Signups should be posted in this thread and include a Steam/Skype contact and team name. Signups close at midday (UTC), or 8 AM EDT, on Saturday the 4th of July. Please try to avoid last minute signups.
The bracket and map rolls will be available soon after signups close. (brackets at http://goiocommunity.challonge.com/ (http://goiocommunity.challonge.com/))
Participants will be contacted when their matches are starting, although it's encouraged to consult the bracket and keep track of the streams so you have a decent idea of when you will be playing.
The complete rules can be found in this document. (https://docs.google.com/document/d/1BEfqkDYqYDfaZ_-irntJt3yG4sowL0xgUtlToKwyK2E/edit) There is now also a brief summary of the ethos behind the rules and structure of the event.
Please only sign up if you are confident of your ability to produce a full team of 8 players.
Parody/Troll/Alt account teams will not be permitted to sign up
The event will continue to follow DOUBLE ELIMINATION format with best of one matches!
Time limit per match remains at 20 minutes, without extra time. Have a look at this (http://goiocommunity.challonge.com/sundayskirmishtest) if you don't know how double elimination works.
New Teams Guide:
- A team needs at least 8 players, all of whom should be available at the event's start time and for the duration of the event. You do not need to include an official roster in your signup. Teams are not required to have any clan affiliation and players are not required to always play for the same team (however playing for multiple teams on one day is not allowed).
- Signups close at midday (UTC) (8 AM EDT) on the Saturday preceding the event. Your signup needs a team name and at least one contact, preferably with an emergency steam/skype contact. At least one of your contacts needs to be in-game when your matches start, otherwise we may be unable to find you and have to skip your matches.
- The event bracket, map rolls and a full schedule will be available in this thread on the Saturday preceding the event.
- When we are preparing to start your match, an organiser will contact you in game with the password and invite you to join them in the lobby. We normally start preparing lobbies 10-20 minutes before the event start.
- Matches do not start at a set time, so it is best to be in game and ready to go for the entire duration of the event until you are eliminated (or win).
- The stream links will also be made available in this thread. It's often helpful to watch the streams to have an idea of when your match will be starting.

The world is out of balance. That balance must be restored. For too long man hath trodden down Gaia as a rutting beast trode the ground. And like a virus man infested Gaia, and made her unwell. The unmanaged arrogance of civilization brought Gaia to her knees, and gave us the Age of Dust. Some have seen our current Age of Air as a partial return to the way things should be. They believe we have lrnead learned from our mistakes. They are wrong. Whoever fights monsters should see to it that in the process he does not become a monster. And if you gaze long enough into an abyss, the abyss will gaze at that hot chick over to your left.
The rebirth of technology and industry, even on the small scale we have seen, represents nothing more than how little we have learned. Man looked upon the world lain waste by his own hand, and he decided not to adapt, not to change, but to return to that state which brought about the collapse. We of the Order of Chaladonwill not allow that to happen. We will put our bodies on the gears, and the levers, and the propellers. We will make it stop.
We will come to your tournament, and we will show you the might of Chaladon. We will show you that we will not allow the same devest
ation we witnessed long ago be wrought again.
