    As I said earlier in the thread im game ball, we have two GT in the house and we are both interested in playing but obviously we can't play together or against each other so, we can just enter one GT and the both of us play if that makes sense.

    Also date dependent.

    I'm not sure if it'd be on one date, trilla, I was thinking of something over a number of weeks. Lets say that we'll try to get 30 people ready to go by March 17th and take it from there - sound doable?

    Sounds good.

    I played for about 45 mins last night, and the last thing I did was to confirm a Prestige. I'm P2 now, so will be starting from Level 1 tonight. The 17th (ish) gives me a bit of time to get some unlocking done. :)

    off topic slightly, anyone find the network crap last night? I had a KD of 17/2 in scrapyard TDM and with 2 mins to go "CANNOT CONNECT TO XBOX LIVE" :mad:

    I've gotten some ideas on this, but no time to post them now - I'll come back tomorrow. Basically:

    1. Set deadline for registration
    2. Draw up schedule
    3. set deadlines for matches
    4. Enjoy


    So, if you're interested in taking part, check back tomorrow for details.

    oh yeah, forgot about this. Right, so things are starting to pick up in work and I'm not going to have much time to organise this - so we'll give it a go, and if it doesn't go smoothly - SMOOTHLY boards.ie!!! - we'll knock it on the head. I'm more than happy btw if someone wants to take over the reigns or create a website or whatever. But I'm not going to have the time to chase people up for results or make sure matches are played or whatever.

    Btw - can someone please start a public social group (http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/group.php?do=create) so that we can keep details in there? You can only create one apparently :(

    ok - I suggest we go for a start date of April 1st. Here's what I reckon we should do:

    Format will be 3v3, TDM, 3 maps per match.
    Each team will play home and away. Home team picks two maps, away team picks one.

    To register your team post in the teams thread in the social group (I'll edit this post later with the link)
    To register just yourself, post in the players thread. On the 31st of March, we'll form teams out of the players thread, and draw up a schedule.

    Each team will play every other team home and away, and you'll get a week to play each game. teams can organise the time amongst themselves, but

    You should be able to commit to at least 1 hour anytime between 7 and 11, at least two nights a week.

    If you can only play weekends after 11 or all midnight to six am mon to fri - don't join.
    if your ma or your missus watches the only telly in the house all evening - don't join.

    It'll be a nightmare trying to organize six people like that.

    that means, if one team offer to play the game any day between 7 and 11, and the other team only want to play outside those hours, the other team forfeits the game. Miss two games (for whatever reason) and your team is out.

    Sound cool?

    Ok, if someone could create that group and post the link here, we'll get the ball rolling. Make sure the group is public (or if not, that you don't mind giving people access manually)

    most likely a lot of games will be played at the weekend in fairness.

    Its a group rather than a thread I've added rules as best I could - restricted to 1000 characters
