Please let me know what you liked and what you didn't like about the 2v2 cup.

I'd like to keep it going if everyone still wants to play, so think of new maps, find a new partner, think of a crazy new team name.

I am thinking of including euro's in the next one, having 2 divisions and they would not meet until the bracketed section of the tourney. Also for EU v NA matches I was thinking doing a best of 7 like Baseball/Basketball/Hockey playoffs might be fun/different. Just a thought to get the juices flowing.

i like playing new maps even if they suck, but i dont like that cavs is the final map, shoulda been one of the first maps.

this, also I had a lot of fun with the tourney thus far, but I think a best of 7 would be a bad idea purely because of how long it would take.

best of 7 would be for the finals only. And only if it was eu v na


I kinda like the format of 3 new/fresh maps for group play and then 2 older/known maps for the bracket play.

yep, definitely had fun, but the thing about the best of 7 is crazy even if it's only for finals, I would definitely not want to play a 2 hour match, I find that 40 minutes can be long in some maps already, 2 hours, yea right lol. For the eu vs na match, imo I think it's stupid, I always thought those things were stupid because of ping difference even if you do 1 round each server it's just really horrible, the only way I play euro's now is in LAN's and that's only in css cause of course there aren't any LAN's in hl2dm lol.

Nobody said it had to be done in one day.

Best of 7 could get dragged out along ass time if the teams are well matched and could take several days to play. Maybe best of 5 would be a bit more reasonable?

I would also think you would have a rule that states you have to do two rounds minimum at each sitting. Also there is the issue of who gts combine on the last round if it goes to 5/7? Do you give rebs to the team with the greater total kills as a "home field advantage" sort of thing?

well i was thinking of baseball/basketball format

Game 1 - Home
Game 2 - Home
Game 3 - Away
Game 4 - Away
Game 5 - Home
Game 6 - Away
Game 7 - Home

baseball the earlier games are best of 5, But there is a lot of big IF's before we get to that point.

Lets not get side tracked on this point until some of those things happen, like euro's caring about our little cup.

Post the Pros and cons to what we just went through. As I look to get some rule changes, and sign-ups for the 2nd Cup going next week sometime.

Anyone that wants to help feel free to let me know via pm or post.


Also we have the 2v2 cup group if you can help spread the word now maybe we can get some stv info going.

Hmm...as for extending this or expanding rather...I wouldn't mind seeing a 1v1 cup also....kinda like how Warzone was setup with the A/B ladders and such.

Although it would require a good panel of admins to organize and supervise the fun.
