Eliminator League: Online Competition Idea Draft

[KIGO1987]

Welcome the the wipeoutzone.com Eliminator League!
That right, now you and a partner can shoot those "more welcomed targets" to pieces, and brag about your victories till your blue in the face!

What you need to know :

1. First and foremost - please leave this space for results and banter. All questions, team schedules, challenges etc can go in the social group here -
   http://wipeoutzone.com/forum/group.php?groupid=24
   --------------------------------------------------
2. Teams of 2 compete in a variety of eliminator matches, scores are added together, and teams are placed in a league format based on their total number of points.
   --------------------------------------------------
3. Teams can register at the social group. If youve only just found this competition and its mid-way through, dont worry, you can still get involved! The more the merrier!
   --------------------------------------------------
4. Unfortunately theres no way to stop points being awarded for team killing. The only solution is that team members cannot compete in the same race.
   --------------------------------------------------
5. The minimum race size is 4 players, all the way up to 8.
   --------------------------------------------------
6. As there will no doubt be some players competing more than others, you can play the same player in up to 4 matches. Its difficult to enforce this rule, just try and be aware of who your racing, and not rack up all your points battering the same player over and over again xD
   --------------------------------------------------
7. A season lasts for 20 matches (10 for each team member). Once you reach 20 you have your final score.
   --------------------------------------------------

All rules will eventually be placed soley in the social group

Scoring:
--------------------------------------------------
Scoring works as follows -

1. Each game has a score total of 450 points, you retain all points scored once the game is over.
2. You also score extra points based on your final position. 1st place +50, 2nd +40, 3rd +30
3. BONUS POINT SYSTEM - any player who finishes with over 400 points (regardless of finishing position) earns an extra 25 points.
4. CHALLENGES - 3 times a season you can challenge any player who is up to 2 places above or below you in the "player rankings" table to a 1on1 match. Matches have a 250 point limit, with no extra points. HOWEVER! The loser will lose 150 points You also cannot challenge anyone with less than 150 points.
5. Each team plays 30 games / 15 each (not including challenges).

[OBH]

i realised that nowhere on the thing does it say what speed!!

even though i love phantom, if we have it on flash we might be able to attract A LOT of people

[Amorbis]

Do we need to have a set speed? It would make it more consistent but this isn't regular first-to-the-finish racing. Maybe an agreement between racers before a race? But then again, there is a huge difference between even a Venom and Phantom eliminator match.

[KIGO1987]

I think OBH wants to use the set speed as Flash or Rapier speed, to attract more people into the game.

I might put OBH in charge of this one,

I think he has everything set, and done well enough for this to work.

[OBH]

To be honest im a little drained from working on the WWC
I'm more than willing to help come up with a league structure, but id prefer to just compete this time as supposed to run

I love all this sh*t though, if i was desperately needed to the run the thing, i probably couldnt say no

[yeldar2097]

Where do I buy my partner from?

[KIGO1987]

China eBay, thats where they sell there children.

[Lance]

They gave that up when the gov made them use birth control and never have more than one child per family.

[Vartazian]

CoughcoughVartputtinghimselfontheeliminatormarketc oughcough

[djKyoto]

Kigo, are the teams the same as from the 2v2 comp or this is just a draft, right?

I'd be interested Varz, but you last comment was a bit mean.

[Vartazian]

oh the whole pummeling you?

I meant Pummeling you into the ground.. with LOVE.

[KIGO1987]

Coughcoughcoughcoughcoughcoughcoughcoughcoughcough , ive got H1N1, no **** either, been feeling like crap for a few weeks now

Kigo, are the teams the same as from the 2v2 comp or this is just a draft, right?

I'd be interested Varz, but you last comment was a bit mean.

Like our hebrew insulting friends OBH has told me on a few occasions, this is the idea, 2v2v2v2, and as ive said to him the idea is great, but im uncertain how all of this will work since there is no friendly fire feature in the came. So there are going to alot of friendly casualties in the game, not going to make some people particular happy. But we'll see how much interest is in this first before we go to the next step.

[OBH]

Like our hebrew insulting friends OBH has told me on a few occasions

How many times do i need to say there was no insulting!! They love me man, not hate me!

[Dark_Phantom_89]

Any news on the potential start date?

[Mr Phlanj]

You could play games with teams but only if u had an honor system, if u did the live stream then you could have a pannel of judges to make a note on team kills but the game could get cut short. Another idea is if you loose points for team kills but we would still be stuck on the game potencialy getting cut short.

Just some ideas (but none that helped )

[KIGO1987]

I would like to see this work, but there are still flaws that needed to be fixed out, and also there are factors from the WWC which are going to be a problem as well, the massive timezone differences we are all at. In time we'll see if this works.

[Dark_Phantom_89]

If the competition becomes up and running, I will be recording each of my races, so I could help out with the whole team-kill issue by watching the video and taking note of who kills who? Of course, I won't be in every race so can't do all of them. Just a thought...

[KIGO1987]

Thats probably is a smart thing to do. If this goes into the green.

[SaturnReturn]

Maybe I missed something, but isn't the whole point in a team game the fact that you have to be smart and avoid shooting team mates? If you can just fire randomly and have any team hits ignored then doesn't that take any depth and strategy out of team play?
