For this tournament, please, make sure that there is a ranking chart frequently updated. It is not pleasant to search through the posts to see who won a week ago :?

@Hanyuu YOu should read the OP. Apparantly, we don't have a mapset selector, yet :P

And srsly. Stop spamming. I don't feel like wiping out this thread every time. It's easier for me to restrict your posting privileges in this forums.
Macacito
isn't Hidden an inappropriate mod?
Aqo
[Edit] Talked to farto; gonna do my best on helping with the map selection process. I have a lot of map lists already, gonna sort out and provide the best for everyone to enjoy.

GladiOol send me this over FB.

So, I posted that I wanted to be captain of the dutch team.
I posted I want 8 players in my team because the last 2 years we had problems with getting enough players.
I post that when bad maps appear, I'll leave, but the team won't

And I ended up with saying HD might give a few problems, but I'm okay with that.


Why on earth would and admin who reads this be so butthurt that he edits my posts, then delete my posts and then ban my posting privileges.
Really? I just want to know why. I'm not even being rude or anything.

NL true owc #2 champions!


Gladi edit: Loctav, if you don't like my posts contact me in-game or PM. Don't EDIT and DELETE my posts and then BAN me for YOUR actions.

Limit stays on 6. I am not butthurt. Learn to post properly. If he's willed to post proper, I revoke removing his posting privileges. I don't accept spamming here and it results in what you've seen. I warned everyone on first page already.

He posted properly. He's sorry if it mad you mad in any way, but the fact do is that NL played a few rounds with 3 players because of the problem they had with getting enough. Why can't they just have 8?

Again, Gladi wants his posting rights back etc. so he can discuss this with you in a normal matter/way. There's no need to ban him for 2 hours just because you don't agree with him.

Any chance of including a losers' bracket for this? ie. double eliminations format

It'll take a lot more time on scheduling though..
