good luck to all participants

You can only participate if you are of a Catch the Beat global ranking of #8000 or higher and did not violate the osu! community rules in the past 12 months.

Cause CtB player are much less, I think we should change the ranking limit. Maybe #500 or higher?

8,000 does seem too lenient but 500 is way too strict, I'd say either #1,000 or #1,500 would be better. Will likely not be considered for this year but maybe next year

Except one country could oversaturate the top 1500 such that there would be countries that have only one representative in the top #1500.

Well to be honest if you're the only player in your country in the top 1,500 you're probably not going to even bother trying to participate.

We increased the entrance rank to #5000.

Interesant

yay deadline

When do we know when the captain is picked?

Man the hype this year!
Looking forward to seeing everyone go hard, little scared as to Japans tactics here, think theyre gonna put a team in?

Fruitopia, the country where you catch all the fruits to the beat?

oooo man this is gonna be good

Much hype, Very fruit, So catch. Wow
Hehehe, this is worth a watch!

I just want to know why Uruguay wasn't accepted as a team to participate... This make us (being me one of those participants) feel very bad. There isn't yet an specific answer to this, and posting here is my last hope for an honest response

P.S. "Lack of players" it isn't an accurate answer because we were 3 players (Master, Quique and me) and we have the messages from the reply system. Plus we weren't banned in the last 12 months. Locatv or someone, I need an answer

Send an email to tournaments@ppy.sh to get an answer to your question.

We already did that, the response was "Lack of players"

There are 31 countries on the list now, so they might put you in.

Since wiki update is a bit slow.

Group Stage Mappool.




And groups (thanks to Zirox)

Is it even fair to have a 1 group with only 3 teams? You only need to win a 1 match to go to the Round of 16 while other groups have to win 2 matches.

I totally agree, but who would they be able to put in to fill the blank, all teams entered are those that were eligible

Think of it as 1 team didn't show up to any of their matches in Group H.

Dango

because most DT maps and no mods are picked by hk lol

Chile underrated.

And Taiwan I guess.

Personally the best tiebreaker match of Group Stage I guess.

Oh god the echo

The fuck's wrong with the commentators O.o

Version without echo.

Teams after group stages:
Win - number of maps won
Loses - number of maps lost
Aces - number of maps this player ended with highest score in his team

Look at all these statistics. Isn't he awesome?

With this, i can do some research to measure the probability of winning of each team

btw, how did you get all of those datas?

Thanks Krzysiek, I really enjoy stats like that.

Stats are based on player pp gained from maps played with specific mods. So far they've proven to be quite accurate \o/.

Hope they will remain accurate as you keep update them

best mappools ever, srsly

Teams after Ro16:
Win - number of maps won
Loses - number of maps lost
Aces - number of maps this player ended with highest score in his team
How graphs are made: pick top10 pp maps from each player and each mode.

That ExGon.

ExGon on graphic ...



In PES


He's striker, midfielder, defender, goalkeeper, coach, refeere, goal, audience, etc.

That's the final boss ._.

like Godcat on epic mode ._.

are you serious Krzysiek?

ExGod.

Dat Grahpic O_o

Simple: CtB multi has the mechanic of failing and reviving and surviving. To set a score, at least pass. That's how it works. This won't be changed.

Disconnected players shouldn't be removed? What? How? Ever had a Skype call? If they DC, they get removed. That's intended behavior. Disconnects have been frequently abused in past world cups. Moreover, if you DC, you send no score. We have no data, so you have no score. What are we supposed to take? Dice out the score?

The third point is something I don't understand. Again, if the score doesn't get submitted and passed Bancho (mind, this is also a security measurement), we don't count it.

The score you see is a fake one, as far as I got told. This is a bug, you can report that in tech support. Either way. It was detected as fake score and treated accordingly (see above)

Majority of your concerns are invalid, sorry.

I kind of understand how the multiplayer mechanism works, but is it really that harsh to see a player failing at last and award a 0-score, even though the player got a comparatively high in combo or accuracy? If so, the whole tournament weighs the HP instead of the score and accuracy, which really impede the scoring mechanism. The player have to pass first, then with a high score. So getting a high score is not even useful to benefit their own team because of a fail at the end, really demoralizing.

Another thing is again, regarding to the system. Why is the system so bad that it requires the player to pass such that his/her plays can be recorded. Have you ever think of it, like the system is really able to record the plays. Regarding to the rules, why is it allowed for the players to get themselves revived when they fail in middle and they keep themselves alive at the end to score; but not the players who got a pass at first until the last part they fail, then their scores cannot be counted. These rules are way too outrageous.



Disconnection means intended behavior? Then what does that mean if the player just got disconnected at the end of the match, his score still don't count? Will a player disconnects himself/herself at the end with a good play / high combo, and make their team lose, just because he intended to do so? It seems not really logical to think like this.

Indeed there are intended disconnections in the past world cups, some of them might be abused, however the rules are different from the one this year. Yet you still think that treating them as fails and awards for 0 score appropriate as the solution, why not finding another more suitable way to solve the problem? Better say the mistake is from the system, but not the players. If you mean that the players abuse disconnections trying to interrupt the match, then what is the use of banning players before the world cup begins, is that process useless?

What is the meaning of mentioning Skype Call? It seems irrelevant because it is just regarding to the twitching thing, but the problem is still on how the twitch works (and maybe the system as well), such as how you broadcast each players. What? Disconnected players send no score and data? Probably it is because of the system failure again, it is incapable of handling the records. In overall the blame is not on the players but the whole system.



As you mentioned, scores do not submit when Bancho didn't get their passes as security measurement, then what is *this? How should we count the scores? Using the Bancho server as the score counter? Then what is this match info page for, is that used to inform fault records? Based on this, it proves that Bancho system is not capable again because what the match info page records is different from the score announcements by the staff, using the in-game system for counting the scores.

Okay, what is so-called security measurement?



That was funny to say as fake scores. That further proves again Bancho system is no good at this, and the match info records are far different from the records taken by the staff. In this case you can say every records are going to be fake anyways if they are different from how the staff records the scores.



Note that we have 3 disconnections in *one round, is it really the players' problems or the system failed to run appropriately? In *this round, fake scores again? Or the system is unable to capture different players' records? Disconnected players' records do not count, so why is the score here can still be recorded by Bancho (I believe SakaNa got disconnected at the moment he got 385 combo). Kind of controversial to see two version of scores recorded by the in-game server or the match info thing.

I bet you will say the match info page takes fake records once again, uh. Maybe at first the tournament is fake.

Tl;dr System _

Thanks for the great rules
