Me vs. LunarSakuya is going to be on the midnight of Saturday the 20th, east coast time (GMT-5). So I guess it's more like 12 AM on Sunday the 21st!

Lybydose and I will be playing Oct 20 around 9-10 pm :O
winber1
Me and nekoroll are planning at 10PM EST right now.

I have a retreat that starts on Friday and ends on Sunday. I will probably be home by then, but I will ask the organizers to make sure. Right now that's pretty much the official time we settle on, but I will try to confirm this as soon as possible just to make sure nothing stupid happens.

Awesome.
Floks
Sorry if this isn't obvious, but when we choose a map to play, what are the guidelines.

I'm assuming no mods, but is there a difficulty requirement for each map? Or are all difficulties available for the listed round 1 beatmaps?

As it says in the OP, play the hardest difficulty of every set, unless otherwise specified.
Floks
Ok, and what determines the hardest difficulty? Lowest on the map list? Or the one with the highest ranked score? I guess how do extreme, another, advanced, angelhoney, etc. rank against each other?

Edit: I just don't wanna pick the wrong dif by accident xD

AngelHoney is the highest difficulty in Votarum stellarum. Extreme is harder than Advanced (as per jubeat) and Another is harder than Hyper (as per beatmania). I do think it's silly not to have all the difficulties specified in the OP, so I'll talk to Sync about it.

I was thinking that too. I think 1 or 2 of the maps have a hyper diff lower then the another diff. I always just thought hyper was jumpier and another was more streamy. Each difficult in their own aspects.

Unizer vs. sCam
8 pm est on the 20th

I think it's Sabamiso. But it's debatable, probably.

I'll get the pack up and specify all the difficulties in the OP

also updating the schedule

edit: Added the prizes in OP! (still need to do the pack...)
Derekku
Looks like the pack is done. : )

Also, 'Sabamiso!' is definitely the highest/hardest diff from that song. However, the drain is kinda harsh which is probably why 'Insane!' was picked instead?

That was totally a mistake... thanks for pointing it out

Oh wow I'm pretty excited about this. Good luck to everyone, I'm rooting for Lybydose to go all the way!!

how does this even work? how will the songs be chosen?

also, if this is best 3 out of 5 how is there going to be a tie? lol

Question - since you can now revive while playing in multiplayer, what are the rules regarding fails? Some clarification would be nice.

I believe its each person gets to pick their own song to play. Each song is played twice. Or we each get to pick 2 songs each, each song played once. In case its 2-2 there is a dedicated song (we don't know of?) that is selected by the ref for us to battle it out to the death with.

You choose whatever map you want to play from the list of round 1 maps

You get to pick two maps each. If it ends up being 2-2, then you will go into a tiebreaker.

Read the OP again. Check under the round 1 maps. It's listed there.

The person with the highest score wins, regardless of whether or not they fail.

Who'll pick the first map for the match?

Ah, another question...

Are there any rules regarding funspoiler settings?

Say, one of the players has played the map before and has 90% dim, no SB and no skin, but the other player has not played it and therefore will be playing without these settings.

Doesn't seem quite fair to me, but I dunno. Is there any way this will be handled or will it just be left alone?
Garven
It'd be nice to leave everything at default but I dunno if there's a way to track at all. I'd say it's more the responsibility of the player to at least practice each possible map beforehand.

Hmm, that seems to almost defeat the point of a tournament to me, so I kind of disagree with that responsibility. Well, I personally put more weight on a player's ability to sightread over their ability to play a map many times and get good at it. In any case, I guess I'll have to play through everything to turn off skins and such anyways.
Garven
Although I agree with the sentiment, if you're presented the list of maps to play, that line of reasoning is kinda moot, haha. If you want, we can agree to not practice those maps until the rounds and have the judge choose maps for us for kicks.

Nah, that doesn't sound quite right. I think being able to practice is okay, although it's not something I'm personally up to doing, but I wouldn't stop anyone else from doing it if they felt like it. It's only the funspoiler settings that really throw me off, but I guess I'll just have to go through and play each map at least once for that.

Pretty sure those people in OWC get 99% FC during their matches because of praticing.

You're allowed to use them. We gave you a list of maps to practice beforehand, so we expect you to take that advantage if you want to use the fun spoiler settings.

Nikki has allegedly dropped out.
sCam has to leave due to some real life issues.

That means SapphireGhost and Unizer move on to round two. Sorry you guys couldn't play this round! Hope you still have fun until your first match though. Will update the bracket later today.

Good luck to the two teams playing today! Remember to post an MP link so that others can see the results!

I didn't want this tournament to last so long. Should I move it to weekdays, or what? Seems people are already having troubles. I just might.
SapphireGhost
I'm fine with playing on weekdays as long as match scheduling is flexible enough, and it's also more convenient for the tournament length. I still think it's good for someone outside the tournament to select maps, especially a balanced and difficult tiebreaker map. Most stuff seems to be going well, though.

Okay, somebody else will pick.

I'm not sure about keeping the schedules, though. Some people are having troubles.

Maps will be here tomorrow, so will the pack. Keep scheduling, dates will be pushed back for now.
