Hello there, Mr. Cake! Many of you probably have seen me flying around, especially Orangey and other nice peeps. I've always thought you were the nicest peeps around, and we both love flame throwers. So let's take the fight to the Crimson Skies, together!

 (also, I like cake).

Though I am unsure who this "Mr. Cake" you speak of is, we welcome you all the same! Free free to change your clan tag, join the steam group and hit some pastries up in-game!

I am Mr. Cake.

James T. Kake, if I'm not mistaken.

I'm calling you that now.

Gonna keep calling you Games T. Cork.

A dual-gat pyra used to be a crazy armor shredder... I wonder how a dual-magma pyra would work with all of that disabling goodness... Fire all over, and the hull is offline... Because the weapon has an arming time, having a ship specifically made with the magmas would actually benefit since they'll both be in effective range. That, and a second ship could have banshees for explosive goodies.

Community Events / "The Cogs" Week 9 Championship

« on: September 18, 2013, 10:59:51 pm »

Hey everybody. The day has finally come... The Cogs Championship. The winner this weekend will take hold of the Tournament Champion title. In the case that Raft claims the Tournament Champion title, they will ascend to a higher plane and become the Grand Champions of the Cogs, because they currently hold the title of "Weekly Champions".

http://challonge.com/z1dxhbwp

The first match of the day will place the Rhinos and the Gents on Northern Fjords.
The above victor will face off against Raft on Battle on the Dunes for the third match of the day.


Paddling and BFS will fight it out on Canyon Ambush for the second match of the day.
The above victor and Brood will share a Duel at Dawn for the fourth match of the day.


The championship match will place the finalists in Paritan Rumble.


Qwerty'll be casting at www.twitch.tv/gunsoficarus so make sure you stop on by! Good luck to everybody!

Today cake flew it's first cogs match, and I will say, that we cut it close to victory, it was probably the most spectacular thing I had ever been a part. Today we showed them cake can fight, and I hope to continue flying with you guys in the future.

That was an extremely close and exciting match. Awesome to watch! You guys did an exceptional job with your debut.

Congrats to the Gents and BFS! We'll see you next week! That was an insane series of matches... Wolfpack, Cake, and Flying Dutchmen put up great fights!

The final scores can be seen here. http://challonge.com/zpn1g98e

For the sake of ending the tournament in this program, there had to be a victor, so I picked the first option- both the Gents and BFS qualified and did not face off against each other.

Thanks for all of the sent-in rosters so far! There's a couple hours left if any other clans are still interested in signing up.

This series of matches will hopefully start at 4pm eastern tomorrow. As for the caster and stream location, I'm finalizing the info, and will post it here when I have the definite answer.

Once we pass the deadline for signups, I'll randomize a single elimination bracket, as well as the maps that'll be played, and post it on this thread by modifying the main message. That way, it won't get buried under multiple pages. The maps'll be the same ones available in the previous weeks: Battle on the Dunes, Canyon Ambush, Duel at Dawn, Northern Fjords, Paritan Rumble, Labyrinth.

Lemme know if I forgot to mention or address something, and I'll comment as soon as I can.

Community Events / "The Cogs" Week 8 Open Qualifier

Hey all! Info about the open qualifier!

Week 8 is a open qualifier tournament, in which any team in any standing may compete for a position in the week 9 finale. The overall format of this tournament may change dramatically depending on the number of participating teams, though. More details on each season’s Week 8 is posted on the forums in advance. Either three or six teams will advance from Week 8.

All teams are invited to sign up for Week 8. They don't have to have participated in the Cogs previously in order to enter- the roster is open to all! Teams currently in the top four positions(Raft, Brood, Paddling, and Sky Invading Rhinos) don't participate in week 8- they're already qualified for Week 9.

Everyone who is interested needs to give me their roster ASAP in order for me to make the brackets. It is because of this that I will need to be strict with late sign-ups. Friday at 11:59am Eastern will be the cutoff. Friday at noon- eastern time. Any later and clans wouldn't know who or where they were playing the qualifier.

Send me your roster HERE on the forums via a message. That way, I have everything nicely organized and I can't lose anything. Don't comment it, because there's always a chance it could get buried if a conversation takes off.

Week 8 nutshell info:
Positions 1a, 2a, 2b, 2c are all getting into Week 9.
Everyone who wants a chance to play in the grand final needs to sign up for Week 8.
Week 8 will be single elimination.
Brackets will be decided sometime after noon on Friday.

I'll do my best to answer further questions in the comments below. Otherwise, congratulations, Raft, Brood, Paddling, and Sky Invading Rhinos! And good luck to everyone else!

BRACKETS <-- so fancy

The rosters are in, and the brackets were generated. http://challonge.com/zpn1g98e

The Gentlemen and Wolfpack will be the first match of the day, and they'll face off on Battle on the Dunes

The victor of the previous match will go up against Flying Dutchmen in the Northern Fjords

The final match of the day will have Cake and BFS fisticuffs it out on Canyon Ambush

Two winners will come out of Week 8, and they will go on to play in Week 9. Best of luck, everyone!
