Forum:Wiki CoD tournament

Ever since the CDWC began hosting events, I've had the idea of a Wiki Call of Duty tournament, but there hasn't been a suitable time frame to host it. After the CoD4 event, there is no definitive move; do we start the cycle over, or do we branch into another series? I present an alternative: in late July/early August (or earlier) (school holidays for most people) we host a MW3 tournament.

Organisation
Depending on the number of users interested, we have two options.
 * 1) A straightforward FFA tournament. This is the easiest to run, and would be best with small numbers. Similar to the FIFA World Cup or NFL, we could have groups of 4-6 players, followed by a knockout stage.
 * 2) A team tournament. This is my preferred idea, and the one I planned for. It would involve 2-4 groups of 4-6 4-man teams (if that makes sense) which would then follow the same structure as above.

We'd also need a prize for the winner

Game rules
Subject to change per discussion. These are mainly for balance.
 * Standard TDM/FFA time/kill limit (core).
 * Default Maps
 * No Stealth Bomber in Support
 * No FMG9s

Interest
Put your name down if you would be interested in such an event.
 * I can organise the PS3 but I need people for 360/PC/Wii.

FFA would be a lot better imo. Then no one would have to worry about making teams etc or being left out. 17:58, April 29, 2012 (UTC)

We could simply have 2 matches in sequence; one for TDM, and one for FFA. IDK how teams would be made, but for balance, they would have to probably be randomly picked (No 1337 team for me...). 18:15, April 29, 2012 (UTC)

Sounds awesome! I'd be interested. Not sure what the prize could be though, or if the prize has to be monetary or physical. DrRichtofen (  Talk  ) 18:45, April 29, 2012 (UTC)


 * Medal/ribbon probably. 18:46, April 29, 2012 (UTC)
 * Sounds cool. DrRichtofen  (  Talk  ) 20:13, April 29, 2012 (UTC)
 * The winner gets pride and a sense of accomplishment and skill. Duh. (We don't need a prize.) 23:41, April 29, 2012 (UTC)
 * Screw pride and accomplishment, I want a blue ribbon. 02:22, April 30, 2012 (UTC)
 * ^This. Give us the damn awards. Also, Elmo was the one who suggested a prize if you have opposition DM567. DrRichtofen  (  Talk  ) 15:51, April 30, 2012 (UTC)

FFA would be better then TDM, since it'd be your skill against everyone else's. If we did TDM, good players might get stuck in a team full of bad ones. Also, no restrictions on weapons/kill streaks. Conqueror of all Zombies 18:51, April 29, 2012 (UTC)

I just had another idea; how about 2v2 Dom(like in MLG matches)? You can choose a partner and enter. 3v3 may be viable as well. 18:52, April 29, 2012 (UTC)

Sounds like fun, I'll go with the 1st choice. Hopefully, I don't end up being the host again like at the WaW event. BTW I don't have the Map packs. 18:56, April 29, 2012 (UTC)

Sounds good, but I'll do crap in it (As usual, lol) and their won't be many Wii players (Again lol).

I would join, but I would have to use my friend's PS3, though. I am nacho 21:53, April 29, 2012 (UTC)

FFA please :D WhinoTheRhino 23:33, April 29, 2012 (UTC)

Sounds fun. I'd go with the team tournament sounds a lot more fun. Prize could be a medal/ribbon. Leon S. Kennedy AKA Shepard 01:16, April 30, 2012 (UTC)

This sounds really, really fun. 01:45, April 30, 2012 (UTC)

About the PC branch, who will take care of hosting. And, how (Offline mod enabled or not?) ? 02:29, April 30, 2012 (UTC)

Sounds fun, and I agree with CoaZ, there should be no restrictions on the guns and killstreaks. Also would the tournament be core or hardcore? 20:08, April 30, 2012 (UTC)


 * Core, unless there's a unanimous vote in a group for hardcore. 20:11, April 30, 2012 (UTC)
 * Hardcore  20:16, April 30, 2012 (UTC)
 * So if there are enough people, there would be a separate hardcore section? 20:22, April 30, 2012 (UTC)
 * Yes, we could have a group if there is six or so people to make one. 20:24, April 30, 2012 (UTC)
 * Should we wait for the roster fill up more and then ask? 20:40, April 30, 2012 (UTC)
