BRDS Vs IRL Clan - Cup Competition

everlast75

Right - I've talked to some people, who have talked to other people and with the blessing of Almighty Mod, we have the possibility of a "Boards CoD Cup competition" sorted.

It will be a weekly event - with 6 from each clan. The simplified rules are three games..


1) One from us - probably Core Dom, with nothing banned

2) One from IRL - HCCTF, with nothing banned.

3) Neutral - Barebones TDM on Core or Hardcore (Core decided by previous week's winning team)

We hope we could get this going regularly - say weekly - with times and day arranged in advance.

IRL clan will start their own thread - their members will not post in ours, and vice-versa to keep things handbag free.

That's the plan. There are more than 6 members from BRDS up for it (or at least there was) so there will be a list - the first week will be the first six posted on the thread that shan't be named and is now closed. If one or more is not available, then the posters after that who threw their hat into the ring on that thread.

Thereafter, I suggest we each have our side chosen at random week to week. I think IRL clan will do the same - keep it fresh and give more people the chance to play.

How does that sound lads?

everlast75

P.S. Any posts bringing the tone of the thread down will result in the whole idea being shelved... I have been warned.

Sounds good to me

Mr. Manager

Always said you weren't a bad lad everlast!

Smashing plan!

And I feel I have to congratulate you on organising this given the difficulty in getting things through to the IRL clan.

Cool, so I'm in the first match? If it's on this Sunday to Wednesday night this week I can't play though because of exams, any other time, I'm free

Yep, you were in the original six of the previous closed thread. Don't think I can do Sunday either but literally any day after 22:30 pm is perfect for me

Haha nah man, can't stand it when people act like they have been cheated in every gamemode they've been beaten in.

I'm not getting into it as it's not fair on everlast' thread.

I'm gonna get a gamebattles clan set up soonish and i'll only be playing by mlg rules.

Good luck though! Watch out for noobtubers and campers.;)

CORaven

May be a silly question, but are the IRL clan 100% up for this?

Faolchu

wont be involved but best of luck lads

Indeed - I sorted out the finer details with the main man over there before contacting r3 and asking him for the nod for this...

Times and players to be sorted is all (or at least it had better be )

Thanks for all the best of luck wishes - I'm hoping this will be work out.

P.S. What would be the preferable times - the main man on IRL said Fri/Sat - how are ppl fixed? Maybe post your name and your preferred time (or time you can't make it) up here.

Don't seem to remember you ever saying that

Not at all difficult - I think all the hard work was done by yourself, Yimrag, Shammy and others.

Fingers crossed it gets off the ground...

Mr. Manager

I'm free to play this game tomorrow night and Sunday night. Unfortunately can't play tonight as I have a going away do/birthday to attend.

everlast75

Good to have you onboard (no pun intended) Cereal.. fancy starting a winning streak again, this time on Black Ops eh

I think the other lads have about 30 or so members, so they need a bit of time to sort out their logistics - which is fair enough, so I don't think anything will happen this week. Besides, less haste more speed... I'd rather have things water-tight (as much as possible anyway) before things get started in ernest.

We need to get our own list of interested members together too, so have at it lads!

justsomebloke

Just wondering if you are planning on having this as a weekly event would it not be best to pick a time and then see who is available at that time, as it is generally easier to pick a time and see who is free as oppose to trying to find a time that suit 10-12 people or however many are playing.

justsomebloke

Also if numbers allow it may be an idea to try and have 'B' matches at the same time if possible following the exact same match rules as the 'A' match to give everyone a go but with only the result of the A game being counted i.e. the B game is more a 'just for fun' game

everlast75

Like I said, the other lads are sorting out their group into who is interested and when are the best times for them, so for the moment I'd like our lads to do the same? That's why I was looking for people to post their names up and when would be good for them generally.

Of course, I'm open to suggestions.

For me, like Cereal, 22:30 most nights would be fine.

If there is enough to go around - by all means we could have two teams, but for the moment I want to get things off to a steady start...

x43r0

I'm good from 22:00 almost any night

shawpower

As I said in the other thread before it got locked, I'm way late for this match up. But you can put me down for any future friendly matches down the line. If it gets to a situation where things aren't played in that friendly way (similar to our boards MW2 matches ages ago) then I'll quickly drop out. But for now, you can put me down on the reserves list.

Jev/N

I should be free at some point, defo Sun night, prob not tonight and maybe tomorrow night - very decisive, I know!

Only read the whole post now... I'm on most weekdays from 21:00 for a few hours as well

Mr. Manager

I've trawled through the previous locked thread for peoples names who want in and this is the list (in no particular playing order) so far. If you want to add to it, be my guest!

Right lads - times for playing - we are generally available weeknights/weekends or wha'?

x43r0

I'm good weeknights after 8pm and weekends after 6pm

Mr. Manager

Any night after 10 pm suits me down to the ground. Obviously the nights I'm not in work can be played earlier but as a bench mark, 10 PM it is

everlast75

This is a "getting the band back together" kinda moment

Any chance we could lure Cossax into the mix?

Haha, I cannot commit to this just yet. Moving house and Idk when I will have net up and running. Hope to though.

everlast75

Cool - well ya know you'd be a welcome addition Raven!!

Right so - just received reply from IRL clan leader - they're ready when we are and are flexible on the times insomuch as we are, which is cool.

There are those that haven't mentioned their prefered times on here - so I'm gonna suggest a weeknight at 22:00.

The format is

1) One from us - probably Core Dom, with nothing banned - to be confirmed when the BRDS group to play confirm

2) One from IRL - HCCTF, with nothing banned.

3) Neutral - Barebones TDM on Core or Hardcore (Core decided by previous week's winning team i.e. this time us)

We encountered a bump insofar as we are unable to do barebones; so it was proposed we agreed to play TDM with killstreaks and perks disabled? It seemed the easiest option and as the option is available in set up.

Our team will be selected (I suggest at random, but others may prefer first come first served) from those that have put their name forward in no particular order which are..

Feedback welcome lads!

Good man Everlast. All sounds good to me. I'd be available most weeknights @ 10pm, Fri or Sat would have to play be ear, but Sundays usually good for me too.

As far as choosing a team, my suggestion, if there are 12 people who are interested, everyone should get a game in the first 2 weeks or matches.

Week 1:
Organiser plus 5 randomly generated (include subs)
Week 2:
6 people who didnt get to play week 1 (include subs)
Week 3:
See how the first two weeks go and agree a rotation format of some sort. Most people would be fairly flexible about subbing in or out I would assume. Just try to make sure everyone gets their fair share of matches.

everlast75

Sounds like a plan :cool:

justsomebloke

Mr. Manager

Good work everlast, nice to see some head way on this.

If at all possible, could we push the start time back to 22:30? I only finish work at 22:00 and it's a 20 minute drive home .

I'm free any night after 22:30 - Obviously the days I'm not in work I can play before.

Off work tomorrow if that's any use.

Jev/N

Sounds good to me, I'm free every weekday night from 21:00 or so, so no issues there

Gonna start working on getting Marathon Pro for CTF, just prestiged!

If it's tomorrow, I can play anytime. Unfortunately, I'm back to work for Saturday, Sunday and Monday. Can play from 22:30 onwards though if it's any use to yee

Benrobjohn

Can play this Fri and Sat then bout 11ish most nights.

everlast75

22:30 this Sunday night it is. The following is the situation regarding players as I see it...

Everlast75 - availiable
xxELKATSUMOTOxx - available

If Sunday at half ten is ok for vast majority, it might be a weekly event at that day and time.

If I don't hear from the above by this avo, I'll have to go ahead and make the draw out of the remainder. Benrobjon and Elkat might be able to see the scéal with Floyd and Paddyman respectively..

I'll send friend requests to those that are not currently on my list in due course.

Busy tonight and tomorrow night, but Sunday all evening/night is grand for me

Mr. Manager

Sunday at half ten is perfect for me. I rang paddyman just there but his phone is off. He was working last night so I dont imagine he was home till about 6 or 7 am. Will give him a bell later.

docdolittle
