wipeoutHD "WEAPONS ON" World Cup!
Thats right! Finally after lots of debating, multiple drafts, difference of opinion, overly complicated rules, plus aaaaalllllll the other stuff, we finally have it ready - Its the wipeout world cup! (Thought it would be good to announce it along with wipeout FURY
Cheers to SaturnReturn, Mad-Ice + others for finally getting things rolling. (and EPSILON for the awesome idea!)
[ THE RULES ]
---------------------------------
* 10 teams compete on PHANTOM to see who really is the best of the best.
* EVERY MATCH IS WEAPONS ON, ALL 16 TRACKS
* points are scored in exactly the same manner as the normal wipeoutHD tournament structure.
* Every team is always involved right until the end - All 10 places are decided so the finalist's will only play 1 game more than the rest.
* Try to have at least one standby player ready in case of long term disconnection.
* Games should be invite only
* Teams should agree on host in advance, can split hosting if both agree.
* Coordinate via the PS3 chat box. Set up a chatbox before the race and all join.
* The highest socring pilot for each race will be awardrd the "Most Valuable Pilot" for that race
* Keep track of ALL players scores --- either via a screenahot / photo at the end, or use the chatbox to keep track.
* If there are many complaints in the chatbox of dead weapons pads or frequent broken barrel rolls during the first 8 races, change host for the 2nd set of races.
* TIMESCALE -- Each team will have ONE MONTH to play all the teams in their group IN ANY ORDER YOU PLEASE before we move onto the next round We were going to do 1 race a week, but leaving you guys to organise 4 matches within 31 days should be easy enough!
TRY AND ORGANISE RACES NOW, OR IN THE NEAR FUTURE Ill mark next to each race the date itll be taking place if you guys know in advance.
* DISCONNECTIONS -- If it happens within the first few races, obviously feel free to start again. If its 2 races from the end and 1 team has a clear winning advantage, dont bother. If it becomes a REAL problem, try another team mate or re-arranging it for another day. Forfeits are of course an absolute last resort.
Just use a bit of common sense if something starts to go wrong. Not every race is going to go 100% according to plan, just try not to go mental about it
* QUESTIONS -- PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE, post them here
