Draft Night TWO!!!

We had 32 players playing all at the same time

we had more then that but ppl didn't really understand a few things and we need to add a few rules/guidelines.

One thing to note is the 8 to 9 time period is for getting ppl into the ventrilo server and picking teams. I saw a bunch of ppl leave during this time because they thought it would have started or thought it did start already and they missed out which they didn't.

I think 2 of 3 is to long we will go with one round per tourney round winners play other winners loser play other loser ( can't have ppl wait from 8-9 then lose and then leave they want to play) so it will be a triple elimination. So we will play for every place 1-8.

Don't alias, nuff said

In 5v5s for cs.s you can't have ppl from the same team on, of course you will want them on your team, but the point is to play with different ppl. we had a few with 2 from the same team which i didn't think was a problem at the time because this is ok in dods althou you have 6 players not 4 so lets go with this aswell.

I know i had some other thoughts but it's early plz use this post to post your thought concerns about draft night TWO!


And bi-weekly or weekly?

weekly, and i support the teams idea.

other then that we need more slots on the vent, vent needs to be config'd so its less annoying, and i think every week 1 map should be dropped for a new map.

Having this a weekly event is a great idea. And for this being the first time it didn't go to bad.

Good job nino

maybe try a friday or saturday, cause i talked to a bunch of people that couldn't play cause they had work the next day and i was thinking for teams next time maybe have 2 heavy hitter and 2 newer players on a team, would make the odds alot better and would make for some good matches, just a idea tho

team 2ntense is going to try and upgrade the vent server to a 100 slot before the next event, we got a deal right now but upgrading will cancel out that deal, and i think hav0c said we'll be looking at $40-$50 a month, we'd really like to help this draft out anyway possible.. but if you'd like to help us help you, send a few bucks to [email protected]

Why do you need to spend big bucks on a vent?
You could just start an IRC channel for free and it would do everything you need, and those who do not have mics or have broken sound or whatever could still participate.

stown3d was just thinking outloud while he was high, 2nt vent is fine if the cs team needs vent for draft night they can use my 25 slot vent. 50 is perfect. Irc is just a terrible idea.

tell me the last time the hl2dm channel had over 50 users in it and that might be a valid alternative.

ps. record users on #hl2dm at once was 33, i highly doubt we can come to expect last thursday's turn out if we switch to irc.

Sorry the turnout wasnt too good. =/ I was 60 miles out in the ocean doing an overnight fishing trip. If you decide to try it again, maybe earlier on Sunday or a week night would be better, say 6PM or 7PM eastern???
