Title: Mid-week Madness Tournament (Phase 1)
Post by: Hunter. on May 25, 2014, 03:18:38 pm
Hey, welcome to the Phase 1 discussion of what I hope will be a fun weekly occurrence! This phase includes measuring interest, putting acrossed the base ideas and a general discussion of the foundations of which will be built on.

After having a really fun 4v4 today, I wished that they would pop up more often, since Wednesday is typically a "Whole TAW get together" where we stream.. I thought "why not invite the public to get a 4v4 filled really quickly!"

So here is my plan!

That's pretty much what I would like from the event and if anyone else has suggestions or criticisms feel free to leave them. A logo would be nice too so begin gathering ideas, I will take submissions in phase 2, voting for logos will take place in phase 3!

Thanks for reading and see you in the skies!
Hunter.
TAW

Best of Luck... should be pretty easy to fill spots at the moment, and hopefully it stays that way... but one of the reasons I cancelled Tuesday Night Fights was the lack of people to fill the lobby, and that was only 2v2 :(

That's why I'm trying to spread awareness so soon, and involve community members in it's creation!

Good sutff, if you guys allow noobs to play in this event, then i can try to bring my team(1 ship). We are new in this game, but well organized game against expirienced palyers always better than random public onces.
P.S. I play against TAW guys in quake wars :P

Awesome! Most of our high ranking members started off in Quake Wars! We will probably start the event in 2-3 weeks if you're interested.

I'm going to leave the post until tomorrow, if there is no more feedback I will move onto phase 2, which will be requesting resources and deciding the pool of "bonus rules"

That is a very European time, but then again, this game has become very European. I just don't think you will get many Americans with that (if my calculations are correct that is 2pm for east coast.

Muse definitely should open a european department. I suggest somewhere in poland or germany

Also, signing up as spare crewmember

Hmmm, well this is TAW's EU group so it's aimed at EU. I will have a word with the NA leader and see if he can follow this formula to make his own version, it will probably be a Thursday for theirs!

if we assigned continents by something as petty as geographical contiguity, the concept of "Europe" would be redundant.

but I guess this is not hugely relevant to the original purpose of this topic. ^^

Not to be insultive, but following your logic, Moscow is right in the centre of Europe, yay

That means I can open the European department right in my place ^^

best bit of Turkey is in Europe. Same as Russia... though it is partially in Europe it does not follow that all of it is Europe. So Moscow is just inside the fringes. ^^

Whether we want to or not, we are in the EU! And people immigrating for work seem to agree! =D but non politically I'd rather live in real Europe since England is a bit of a tip at the moment!
