Killing Floor Tournament, Hosted by ASH!

Post by VØLTÅG£ »

After some discussion and planning, we are going to host our own Killing Floor tournament in our servers in the very near future. Even though the tournament will be hosted by us, individuals registered on our forums are also welcome and encouraged to participate!

How do I join?

To join, all you have to do is register on our website (if you haven't done so already), and then submit a contact form, title the Subject 'Killing Floor Tournament Entry' and simply state that you want to be entered.

What Happens after I submit an entry to join the tournament?

The leaders will compile a list of all the people interested for the tournament. Then, anyone who plans to attend needs to meet in our [url=ts3server://ts.armoredsaintsofhalo.com?port=9987]TeamSpeak server[/url], on Saturday, July 26th at 7pm EST, where we will hold a draft for teams of 3 to play on Hard difficulty. No perk level restrictions. If you cannot meet at that time, we will place you on a team on your behalf. Unless stated otherwise, all team assignments will be FINAL to ensure that teams do not become "stacked" and to keep the process running smoothly. If we have enough numbers, you we will draft for alternates as well in case a team member becomes unavailable. If everything goes smoothly, we will host our first game on Tuesday 7/29/14; a specific time will be given at a later point in time. If you do not have TeamSpeak, you can download it here.

Due to the short notice, we may accept late entries if more participants are needed.

General Rules:

* Your team will choose, from the participants assigned, a leader to represent and organize your team.
* Each team needs a leader who can be contacted for information and speak on behalf of the team.
* Each player (including the leader) may only participate in ONE team.
* As team leader, it is up to you to keep your team updated with all the information, rules, dates etc.
* To complete a game, you must clear all ten rounds AND kill the Patriarch.. If no team is able to do this, other factors will determine the victor; for instance, who got the farthest, and in the shortest amount of time. Other factors will be addressed below.
* When you are given a time to show up that is agreeable for both teams, you are expected to show up promptly. You will have an extra 15 minutes to show up. If you do not have a team of 3 present and ready to play within 15 minutes after your game was supposed to start, your team will forfeit.
* All teams must be ready 15 minutes before their set time starts.
* Teams will have a total of 7 minutes to allow for disconnections before the game will be resumed without the missing player.
* If you have a sub, he must be ready to instantly join the game if a player is missing/gets disconnected.If a player is missing/disconnected, we will pause the game.
* All times will be in EST (GMT -5). If you do not know how to convert the times to your timezones if you do not live in EST, time to learn.
* Before the first team plays, one of the official killing floor maps will be randomly selected, this map will then determine whether your map will be picked from the easy or hard set of maps. If the first team during a tournament gets the hard map set, ALL teams will play one of the hard maps.
* One warning will be given to a team before disqualification.
* Inappropriate behavior during the games will not be tolerated and will result in disqualification. Demonstrate sportsmanship. Do not disrespect players and tournament managers, excessively swear, or make sexual/racist comments.
* Voice chat is allowed both with the in-game interface or an external program such as TeamSpeak.

In game Rules:

* No cheating or glitching during the tournament, if caught, your whole team WILL be disqualified.
* We will only allow official maps however KF-Mountainpass, KF-Hospitalhorrors, KF-Hell, KF-Moonbase and KF-Farm will be not in the map rotation due to game balance.
* The team with the best time score wins the round/tournament! If no team is able to complete all 10 rounds and subsequently kill the Patriarch, the team that managed to get the farthest will move on (waves, and in the instance that both teams die on the same round, the amount of zeds left when they die will determine who wins.)
* Players are allowed to use the 15 minutes before their time starts to warm up.
* No suicide can be commited for extra weapons and cash during the game, doing so will disqualify your team.
* If all players die during one wave (including the Patriarch battle), your team will lose.
* Players are not permitted to switch perks during their game. The perk you select during the spawn screen will be your final perk so CHOOSE WISELY.
* Death time penalties: +30secs for each death, all extra time will be added to your final time.
* Players are not permitted to stick explosives to themselves.

Rules are subject to change.

Well assuming we'll have ten teams, the roster will look something like this:

Here are the maps that will be used for the tournament. Maps will be chosen randomly according to what round you are in. The same group of maps will be used for both the 1st place and runner-up brackets. Competing teams will play on the same map to ensure fair play.

Matches will start at 8pm EST tomorrow for the first 4 teams, and 9pm for the remaining 4 unless told otherwise. Only 4 teams will play at one time to ensure we will have enough spectators to watch over the matches to make sure their is no foul play or misconduct.

So at 8pm tomorrow, Wizard's team and my own will play, as well as Jook's and Crash's. Then at 9pm, the remaining 4 teams will play. The maps for the 4 matches will be chosen at random and won't be announced before the match being.

Here are the maps that may be used in each round:

First Match

biotics lab
west london
Manor
wyre
offices


Second Match

bedlam
biohazard
fright yard
Sirens Blech


Third Match

abusement park
steam land
forgotten
foundry


Final Match

suburbia
departed
filths cross


Good luck, and have fun!

Hey guys, just wanted to say I'm sorry for the delay. Between the mess of figuring out who played when, getting a hold of people who knew who won, and a lot of personal things that have kept me extremely busy over the past week, things are starting to settle down and I will get this tournament back on track and under way by tonight or tomorrow. Thank you for your patience and understanding!

Round 2 will commence this Friday, August 15th at 8pm EST. I would like to wait to start the runner-up bracket until all beginning 6 slots are filled. If this time does not work for a majority of the teams, PM me and I will try to work something out. Thanks!
