Draft Night: 4v4 mix

DOn't have quite enough imo.

I'd like to try a different format to drum up support for it

This Thrusday Night 9pm est I'll hold DM's first draft night.

As this format is much looser then the NA cup would be this should be able to be a fun night of fragging for all.

From 8-9 We will Get Any and all hl2dm players you can get into one vent server. At 9 the gates will close and the draft will begin. With 32 players being the goal. Then 6 players with Rcon to a server put it in your comment and that will be put into a Channel to be captains, at random. Then i'll go to each captain and have them pick from the 28 players in the draft pool. Once everyone is picked team 1 vs 8 // 2 vs 7 // 3 v 6 // 4 v 5 the winners will then go on to the semi-finals and then the finals.

After being away from the game for a while i was able to find 8 players within 10 minutes to do my own little 4v4 the other night on a saturday no less so i think this should do well. And could be a weekly thing if ppl really enjoy it.

would be good practice for playoffs maps for all as well
dm_amplitude_r1
dm_lostvillage
dm_lockdown_r3

got a vent server.

Too late for meh, soz!

Draft Vent server

Chicago2.nationVoice.com 3923

Get ready to spam this vent server to everyone on your x-fire // steam friends so we can get the goal of 32 players and get this draft rolling

If you make it a bit late just hang in vent if anyone needs a ringer for someone that drops.

Don't have vent? download it at http://www.ventrilo.com

create a name
then enter the server ip then port
hit connect thats it


If you are aliasing please put your game handle in your comment so we know who you are!


At about 8:45 I will pick captains. I will ask everyone that has a hl2dm server with Rcon ready to go with the maps and cal.cfg to put their server info in their comment then randomly place then in their Team channel.

At 9:05 est we will pw the player pool channel and only ppl in b4 the time cut off will be allowed back into this channel, Althou stick around if you missed the cut off in-case ppl drop/have to leave in later rounds etc.

9:07 we will begin picks going from 1 to 8 then from 8 to 1 until each team is full

9:15 teams 1-8 2-7 3-6 4-5 will be paired up and enter the high numbers server for Round one on dm_amplitude_r1

TBD winning teams will stay to be matched up against other winning teams to play ROund 2 on Dm_lostvillage

TBD the final two teams will play the championship match on dm_lockdown_r3

Please do not use ringers of any kind as the draft will hopefully keep teams as even as possible, leaving for some very good close matches. ANd maybe bring in some new clans to CAL. And most important keep the fun factor as high as possible.

Look forward to seeing everyone on thrusday i will keep bumping talking taking questions.

If someone drops x-fire me and i will check to see if anyone is in the extra player pool section in the draft vent server, again plz don't use ringers lets have some fun.

nice nino, something to look forward to! count me in

Looking forward to it.

i still pretty much new to the game, but if you dont have enought players to fill the slots

i would love to play

btw-nino, its damn good what ur doin, we need more ppl like u and the 2ntense guys around

i think you should sign up matter what wedo, dont think theres a predetermined number of slots or w/e. but.. yet again count me in.

if we go over 32 we will try for 36,40 so on and so on

we will try to keep out the byes if possible

Join up 8-9est pm

i wont be able to play, i work tonight and wont be home until 11 or so EST time.

right at 32 great stuff little crazy since it's the first one for hl2dm but everyone got some good action in

It's a shame I couldn't attend Sadly, I had work.

If this by chance does become a regular thing, it'd personally be easier on me were it a Friday or a Saturday. Then, I don't actually have to get up in the morning
