If you guys have any ideas or suggestions for a Private Beginners Tournament that I may or may not host, make sure to leave a comment!
-
I like this Idea... A newcomers tourney would be awesome
-
Thanks! Oh, also thanks for moving the thread. I am new to the forums.
-
A quick question though for any Moderator out there. I would do the Tournament through making a private match with a password, correct?
-
Anytime :) This definitely deserves to be a community event... I'm sure some of the Vets would also be willing to help you out on this... was there a particular format you had in mind?... Yes, you would essentially have to manual organize your brackets and create private matches...
-
Yes, you definitely would.
EDIT: Dammit Shink!
-
Not my Fault! :))
-
Hey guise can I come?
-
Morblitz is a level 5 gunner! Totally a beginner :P
Please, Morblitz. Think of the children!
-
It will be... a learning experience ;)
-
I was going to make it level 5 and below. Also, help from the "Vets" would be nice. I have no clue what the format would be, so fi you could help me, that would be nice :)
-
Oh, and Morblitz...You can be in it if you are a level 5. Would it be possible if I am hosting it, for myself to also be in the tourney? I have the perfect team :)
-
I do actually have a legitimate question about the levels. If I was say a level 10 engineer but a level 2 gunner or pilot (for instance, I'm a level 4 pilot, so technically I qualify if it was that format) would I be eligible to participate if I only stuck with the role that I have a low level in? Or are you considered ineligible if you have -any- level over 5?
And about participating in your own tournament. There is... precedent, for that. So, sure, I don't think anyone would have a problem with it.
-
Yeah, I'm a level five pilot, but I'm certainly not a beginner. Same goes for Morblitz. It should only allow people with all levels at five or lower.
-
I am a pretty rubbish pilot, though!

I was thinking more of your gunning.
-
I really don't know. But, since it is a beginners tourney, I am going to have to say that you have to be level 5 or below for all classes :/

Ah but wouldn't it be interesting for people to try to take on roles that they're not so accustomed to? :) Like, my piloting would be considered terrible by the standards I normally play in, but maybe competitive at a lower one. Although I guess the knowledge that someone might bring to a game would be pretty powerful.
Anyway, that's just for fun arguments sake. I think 5 and under for all levels might be the way to go.
I actually know a bunch of people that are fairly new to the game that might be able to bring a full team to this. They're really interested in competitive play after watching the cogs, and itching for more coordinated games. This might be right up their alley.
-
Ok cool. But there is one tiny problem...I am flying back to the States on the 24th...Therefor, i wont have all my equipment....only my laptop, mouse, and headset
-
Maybe we can gather 2 quick teams in the next hour and put together a small test round.....good idea or not?
-
Started a Thread with signups just to see if people would actually want to do it.

I agree with this... I'd like to see a tourney with no Cogs players :P It'd be interesting to see what the up comers are coming up with tactics wise...

You may not get many responses here, as I do not usually see that many low lvl players posting (If you're out there, prove me wrong)... this may require some promoting in-game/GOI Facebook and whatnot
-
Hey..I post on the forums a lot and I am a beginner >.< Also, why does it say I am a level 2 engineer below my name when I am actually a level 4?
-

I don't know about no Cogs players at all, but here's one without the top two teams: https://gunsoficarus.com/community/forum/index.php/topic,805.0.html
HEYO!

I'll be acting like this for like 24 more hours, tops.
-
I won't have the time for that tournament :( I will be on vacation...
-
I'm sure it can wait until you get back.
-
The Skies Tournament can't wait 'til I get back. Lol
-
I'm confused. Whats happening with the beginners tournament, it's being postponed, right?
-
Lol sort of. I am leaving to the States for 2 weeks on Thursday. Then, once I get back on June 11th, Howard, Matt, Morbie, and I are all going to get in a call together to plan it all. Howard said that once we get it all worked out, he might get Muse to help host it.
-
Sounds pretty cool. Goodluck! I'm hoping the people that I know that are excited for this tournament don't level up in the mean time :p
-
If they do, as will I, I might make a few exceptions :P
-
I've been meaning to talk to you about that. Since levels don't really mean much (there's quite a really good players with low levels, and high level players who aren't nearly as good) you might also want to consider play time. Though that's a bit hard to measure, unless you go into each and every persons steam profile to fact check. Although you can kind of take them at their word if it does match up with their levels, I guess.
My overall point is, yeah, the people I know may actually hit the level cap for this tournament if they decide to grind out some levels while you are away and during the planning stages, but it doesn't necessarily mean they aren't beginners.
-
I agree with you. Don't judge somebody's level. I have been playing for only 3 days now and I am a level 4. I say we trust them enough and take their word for play time. Goo idea.
-
I have been playing for 3 days, and I have 33 hours played.
-
Seriously. Why Does it say I am a Level 1 - 1 - 2, when I am actually a level 2 - 1 - 4???
-
iTwin, Try logging out and back in again... They might be having an issue with the lvl sync again
-
Tried it....does it work now? Hmmm....
-
write muse :D
-
write muse :D
why do I get the picture of iTwin writing a carefully worded letter to Muse, and then snail mailing it to their office... This picture in my head amused me
-
Oh so it "a-MUSE-ed" you, eh? lol
-
Wait, so you want me to ask Muse to see why it is doing this?
