Ehm... as player of the group G, I have real difficulties to connect at 7:00 , 7:30 and 8:00 GMT, because on here at Venezuela is -4.30 GMT and this means I should been connected at 2:30, 3:00 and 3:30 am, regardless if it's a sunday or not it would been a way too difficult for me. Would like a beetter hour for this lol

I'd still have a few questions regarding the tournament:
1.) How many players per group will advance into the next round?
2.) Will there be double or single elimination stage after the group stage ends?
3.) Is the whole tournament in a BO3 format or will it change to BO5/BO7 as players keep advancing?

3.) Quarter&Semi final will be BO5 and the Final will be BO7

There is one thing I don't get: how is this BO3 and there is a tiebreaker?
Does tiebreaker pop in when it's 1:1? That's kinda dumb, imo

it's not that hard
I understand that is is easily FC able, I just don't think a tournament with no ranking requirement (eg. ranks 5k-10k only, or something like that) should have an AR8 map, especially not one that is generally a DT map for the majority of players above rank 2,000. It's not really a matter of having maps that are playable by everyone in the tournament either. When I sign up for a tournament I sign up expecting difficult maps, as all players should. Difficult is a relative term of course. Don't get me wrong, I understand the map pool will get harder as time progresses, but I personally think the map pool is still too easy for a first round pool.
And we all know what "too easy map pool" means in a tournament...

Hey.
About two weeks back I tore a ligament in my left arm. I thought I'd be good to play by the 11th but 24 hours beforehand it's still not looking great, so I will not be participating. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Make sure you guys follow the stream! You can find it here, http://www.twitch.tv/qpad
Unless I can get my matches 3 hours earlier than when I currently have them, I will be unable to attend. My nephew's birthday party op q_q
Hopefully it isn't too late to have my matches earlier.

There's no mention how the freemod bracket works in this tournament. Can you elaborate?

The freemod bracket allows you to choose whatever mods you'd like, except DoubleTime and HalfTime.fartownik wrote:

Both players does not have to choose the same mods.
Each player have to pick atleast 1 mod however you can pick more than one mod if you want.
As for map picking each player can only pick 1 map from the freemod mappool.
Sorry for not being clear enough about it, I'll update the main post.

better than games at 3am to 5am :p
Is it possible to move my 18:00 match to an earlier time? I can play my other matches but over 18:00 isn't really doable for me

Us working on the QCup schedule has not taken timezones into consideration, if the 4 of us would've taken that into consideration for 128 people you probably wouldn't have seen a tournament untill late summer. Because of this, we made sure to mention several times on both the schedule and main post about how you had time to change your match time by sending Dellel a PM, you could do this until yesterday actually and our schedule has been out for 23 days now. To make sure everyone knew what time it was in their own timezone we even linked to a website where you could easily convert the GMT times to any other timezone.
You also contacted Dellel a week ago and made sure of your match times so you should've been well aware of these times today. I'm sorry that 10 am on a weekend didn't work out for you, seeing how people keep waking up very early in the morning just to play in our tournament, and we're really grateful that people are dedicated enough to play so early in something we've setup. Also seeing how you're living in Germany your match was actually scheduled for 12 am your time, if you now were in Germany during the time of your matches.

Good job!
We've a new schedule for next week now! Make sure you check it out https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/ ... =207248613
Make sure you contact Dellel in time if you want it changed also if you require any help converting your timezones just ask me Rosatoppar or Jojajim2.
The new map pool is also out, you can find it on the frontpage here.

Since it's group stages still I won't complain about the current pool but there needs to be a MASSIVE jump in difficulty for the RoX since majority of the players who are still in this are sub 1k and a large percentage being top 100. I would say that by the time finals are about the star difficulty be pushed to 6.2ish stars average.
No one likes an acc tournament especially when 90% of maps are easily SS'able.
Also no more TV sizes please

there's no reason to worry about the difficulty being too low for the finals
the initial draft for it has landed at an average star rating around 6.15 stars, and that's with some of the maps suffering from "fake star ratings"
so the actual average imo would probably be something like 6.4 stars atm
also can't promise anything about TV Size but we'll try to keep them to a minimum from now on

The tournament requires us to have "time at hand", but there's one problem.
I can't see any GENERAL schedule so I can't really make future plans regarding participation.
I mean, is there a week-long break now or not?
Is next stage a group or KO?
I'd like to see enumerated dates of matches and their stages.

Are brackets visible on http://binarybeast.com/x15042624#brackets definitive?
It seems weird to play against the 2nd of my group while it's not the case for almost every other matches.
+ Is it simple elimination?
Thanks

There'll be a week-long break now yes, the next stage is the elimination stage so it'll be a KO, the current bracket that you can see on the former link is currently a draft and not confirmed finalized, currently it's seeded based on pp-rankings.
We'll continuing schedule as usual the coming monday with the player schedules beeing released, as long as nothing else comes up this will continue untill we finish the tournament. We will also start taking timezones into consideration now that we can handle it better with the amount of players participating.
So basically it didn't matter if you placed 1st or 2nd in your Group at all?..Blueson wrote:

Right now this is the case yes. I have a few arguments as to why I've decided to do this, the first one is that some players recieved free wins because of no shows during their matches. This would automatically grant them a higher spot in the former groups and if this round would be seeded by that I feel like it'd give them an unfair spot compared to those who had to play all of their matches to get the #1 spot in the group. I also believe that the overall bracket will be more balanced this way, we've individual matches who are fairly unfair right now, but if you look on the bracket as a whole it feels more balanced than it'd be if we went by 1st and 2nd in each group.
I do however believe there are arguments against this aswell, first of all there are people who get matched against their former opponent straight into the KO stage, this is probably the biggest reason why I don't want to go with this as the offical bracket just yet as it feels weird matching people up with their former opponents, it also renders a part of the group-stage useless and sadly means that those who played all their matches to get the #1 spot in their group will be left treated unfair.
I am open to take any feedback on the brackets right now though so feel free to respond or PM me, I don't think I've considered close to all the sides of this right now. Right now though I'm looking to change the matches between former opponents and for the most part leaving the bracket as it is right now.
so erm.. what's next? : )

Currently updating the main post about this
i always get eliminated before the fun maps start to appear :^)
I have a question : It's now BO7 but can we now pick 2 maps per modpool to "compensate" for the extra maps to play ? Because if we can't it means that we will HAVE to pick stuff that we don't like to play even though there are maps lefts in the modpools...
Both my opponent and ref are missing so far, and it's 10 minutes past my scheduled match
