Lollery, you have not missed the thing. It is just that I did not post it. I am not setting the deadline this early yet, as I am still looking into the number of turnout. But if u want to play safe, register before 11th May 2013. I will be posting updates one hour later. Update: Edited. And thanks spammah for the well wishes. I am determined to make this a good event :D/>. CrimsonFirebird OGM

It is similar to this except for 1. Why no ubersaw? I thought that is the staple of the medic. 2. U prefer to ban gunboats. Other than that your version of the ban list coincides with mine.

Edit 6: I have decided to release the tournament format, as I realized that non disclosure will introduce confusion to the community. However, it is a bit long and my apologies for that. Any queries is welcome, and I am flexible to change the schedule if needed be. Edit: This is a earlier version of my edited post. Pls refer to the first post for any updates. This is a rough schedule of what I have in mind and it should be treated as such. I will release the final schedule a week before the actual tournament. Tournament Format: • If there is less than 8 teams, the tournament will be postponed to a later date until at least 16 teams joined. • If there is exactly 8 teams that joined the tournament: Single elimination Format of 8 teams will be used. The event will be dropped from 2 days to one day instead. All matches except Grand Finals will be a BO5. Grand Finals will be a BO7. • If 8-16 teams registered, Group stages of 16 teams will be used. After which 8 teams will advance into single elimination format. All matches except Grand Finals will be a BO5. Grand Finals will be a BO7. • If there are 16 teams, double elimination format, BO 5 for each match. Semi Finals till the Grand Finals will be a BO 7. There will be no winner bracket's advantage. • If there are 16-32 teams, which is the ideal scenario, there will be group stages of 32 teams, followed by double elimination of 16 teams. • If there are >32 teams but <100 teams, there will be a preliminaries match conducted before the actual tournament date. Top 32 teams will be seeded into the group stages. After which 16 teams will be picked for the RO16 match in the double elimination format. • If there is more than 100 teams, Swiss system format (Will be decided by server capability of OneAsiaGamer and Asiafortress) will be used, and 7 matches of BO5 will be played. Top 16 will be seeded into the double elimination format. If we do have the time, Top 32 will be seeded in group stages followed by double elimination format of 16 players. Schedule of tournament This is done with the assumption that OGM utilizes 8 admins and 16-32 teams are expected. 1. For Day One • Using this binary beast as reference, there will be from group A to H. • Teams A-D check in at 1230 hrs to confirm their attendance for the group stages. From then, 2 admins will be handing each group. Each match in the group stage will be a BO5. The event will start at 1300 hrs The admins are expected to complete the stages 3 hours later. An hour leeway will be given to them. This event is expected to end at 1600 hrs, with 1700 hrs at the latest (1hr per round, with 3 rounds in total) • For Group E-H, they will check in at 2000 hrs for their matches to be conducted. Similarly, their event is expected to end at 2300 hrs with 0000 hrs at the latest. • Top 2 teams in each group will advance to the RO16 double elimination format • http://binarybeast.c...21304183#groups This is our reference group stages (Bludota OGM Dota 2 Open division) 2. For Day Two • The top 16 teams will check in at 1230 hrs, with the event starting at 1300 hrs. • Schedule of the Day 2 tournament: • Note that LBRx means loser bracket round x, x is an integer from 1-6. o 1300 to 1400: RO16 o 1400 to 1500: RO8 with LBR1 o 1500 to 1600: LBR2 o 1600 to 1700: LBR3 with RO4 (Winner Brackets Semi Finals) o 1700 to 1800: LBR4 o 1800 to 1900: RO2 (Winner Brackets Finals) + LBR5 o 1900 to 2000: LBR6 (2nd/3rd Place Play off) o 2000 to 2100: Grand Finals Reference for the Brackets: http://binarybeast.c...304183#brackets

You are not alone. My poll also suggests that kritzkrieg and DH should be banned. Quickfix should be banned too, but it seems that some people are welcome to the idea of allowing quickfix into the Ultiduo comp. Yuko: ? Do you mean only allow these weapons? CrimsonFirebird OGM

Valid reasons should be stated here

Since I do not know whether to allow it in the end, I would want to bring up this poll to see what u guys, the community think.

.

Sometimes in life When you want to succeed You need to sacrifice, even parts of yourself. You need to face the possibility of failure and to fail yourself. You need to have the need to succeed as your need to breathe. This is what this video reminds me of, the stern determination that I had 2 years ago, lost during NS and currently regaining it. The will to succeed. CrimsonFirebird's Final Twilight. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WTFnmsCnr6g CrimsonFirebird OGM

Gb will be in a whitelist if I put up a whitelist, I do only consider blacklist. Still thinking about what you have said for kritz though. I will pass on a edited reply soon, though imho, i think it will not affect gameplay much, though my depth of thought at this point is not that deep yet. What do u think about Quickfix though?, and Vaccinator is strictly OP :D/>/> Edit: I will put up to a vote. I did a google search, and the general consensus is not to allow kritzkrieg for the above mentioned reasons (the ones that you put). It gives the argument that weaker sollies could get away with just kritz and direct hit too. But still without these 2, the dimensions to this game is limited. CrimsonFirebird OGM

Russkan: Is that that much of a game breaker? Cause from what I could see it introduce another dimension of gameplay. Needed your opinion on this.

1.) and 2.) Thanks guys for the support. I will not fall back on my word for the funds that I put in, since I have announce it though. Like Joe said, I am only prepared to sacrifice that amount, but that amount only, as there are more important things than e-gaming that I would like to pursue. I still have no idea on what in game prize should I give though, I am thinking of making a some sort of trophy, but it is an idea. 3.) Shounic and Joe, I think that one refined metal is fine for both of you, and perhaps I am thinking a bit too much. It is just that i have considered the possibility of an average player joining the tournament without much metal in his inventory at my time of thought. Thanks Teddy for your kind consideration. 4) Yeah, I am receptive to donations. But for now I will accept metal donations for this tournament as the decision lies with the rest of my mates in this aspect though. And yup I will give due credit. And thanks Madman. Your statement kinda reminds us of the time when we scramble to fix issues pertaining to our first SCII LAN tournament. It was not funny, we kinda burnt ourselves (financially, emotionally) trying to pull this tournament off. Took us a revision on our morals and our motto in OGM to get back on track. And we are glad that we pulled it off in the end. CrimsonFirebird OGM

andy897221, just an advice, put your ign :D/> And no matter the results, take their advice seriously. CrimsonFirebird OGM

Update guys: Edit 2: I have decided to put in further money till SGD $30. This decision is screwing up with my pocket money as 1. I am not as rich as most of you think. I am from a lower middle class family and we are living by the skin of our teeth. 2. Most of my money is funded towards getting a good double major degree in maths and physics in my university, and physics, being my forte, is where I would want to really excel in. This is just my little way of contributing back to the community for them being there during my dire times of need. Edit 3: I will be imposing a 1 refined metal entrance fee to the competition. It pains me to generate a barrier to entry as I know that a lot of people still have not the ability to make one refined metal but all of this is going towards the prize pool in the end, and not into my pocket. I sincerely hope that you do not hate me on this, but if you are really a bit short on making a refined metal, come talk to me and we can make a concession. Also, I do accept any metal donations to this rumble. Your contributions will be greatly appreciated and will be reflected under our list of sponsors.

Okay, I will consider that Fuzz. I know Tharnos. I will see what I could do to increase the prize pool. CrimsonFirebird OGM

Sure I will. (If I have enough money that is) CrimsonFirebird OGM

I have been discussing this idea with a good friend of mine (Not inside OGM) and he suggests this idea too. Now for the reply: First: I do not want to raise a barrier of entry to the players, especially the younger ones. I want to include everyone in this tournament, and I want this rumble to be a catalyst for the whole tf2 community to be together Second: I do not want this game to be too competitive, in such the way that competitors will fight with their teeth and claws, to promote elitism, selfishness and any other negative emotions related to the reason why I don't put a registration fee. Third: I want to contribute a little to the TF2 community, for without this community, I would have fall into severe depression during my NS days. Just to give a little something back to them. It is my wish to see this TF2 community, (be it pub or pug) grow, no matter how small it is. With Regards, CrimsonFirebird OGM

I am not a musician by anyone's standards, but that tune is sure nice to listen to. Now if they remix the spring variation Any more J-pop/ Japanese made music that you listen to? CrimsonFirebird

V is a nice remix of that classical winter version of the 4 seasons. Yay. To see another touhou fan here lol. The world is small. And yeah. I prefer SigSig though

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vEi7aQ7O58U Been trying to get an A for this song.

Yeah that is doubles play. I am doing that, and I am lvl 10
