Help needed with MNC 360 Ladder and Tournaments

Hi there,
New to the community but very active in gaming.

Here is what i am trying to set up:
1. a MNC Ladder (or maybe two)
2. Weekly tournaments

I have everything needed to create and manage those smoothly. Link will follow later.

Targets:
a) I am trying to get the ladder(s) up and running from tomorrow. Team will be able to register straight away etc.. (more about that to follow)
b) First weekly Tournament set for next week on Saturday. We may rorate between saturday and Sunday week on week so that those who can't attend on of the day will have a chance to get in the following week tourney.
Of course if people are interested we can have more than one tourney.

Note: team performance on the ladder increases their rating. Tournaments are seeded and use that rating to place teams on the brackets. So be active on the ladder to secure a nice see for tournaments

Oh last thing. I have both PC and Xbox360 so i will be supporting both platform. No jealousy!

hope to hear from you guys ASAP. I'd like to move quickly on this and get started, tomorrow!

ps: I will be posting the same on the PC side

One comment about Leagues.
We can handle mutliple types of matches in a single playday.
e.g. we could have a league with the following match format:
3 * 6v6
2 * 5v5
...

several match combinations are possible.

Looks like 6v6 is the most popular after all.

Here are the banners I have prepared:






Once I have set up the event i will post the link and give a bit more background on the platform that will host the competitions.

Still looking for people willing to help

For the league we probably need a bit more time for the teams to organise themselves and people to get use to the league/ladder/tournament platform.
Maybe the League could start like 1 of March and in the meantime we have few tournies / ladder games.

Your site looks pretty well made, I'll try to spread the word for you.

I'm supporting iamKira's initiative fully.

He has years of experience with competitive gaming and knows what he is doing. And I absolutely love that we can have one large MNC community, Xbox and PC players combined!

Awesome job Kira, thank you so much, I <3 your site!

This looks awesome!

Nice work and let me know if you need any help.

At this stage most people want 6v6 and a League as well as tournaments.

I need a bit more feedbacks on the rules and possible teams to join and will create the tournament.

We need at least 4 teams.

I'll make a new post today/tomorrow with more details about the xbox360 tourney.

Destiny would play.

As for the gameplay settings, just make sure to keep them default.

I have at least 2 complete teams right now whod be interested in playing
Third team being created..
Fourth team might be created.

good stuff guys. i'll definitely set things up later today.
We should we aim for the tourney to take place during the weekend of 26/27 of Feb?

Feedle or anyone else..consider me for a team ok? i'll try to make Italian churros be part of this but i'll enjoy other team because i want to play more and more!

I'm out for weekends, but don't let that stop you. I fully support competitive gaming in general, plus it's good for the game's evolution (more players and better players for this small game).

I'm sure the many teams among the forums are all going to jump on this. If nothing else, I like your username.

hey thenaks you can always help getting teams to participate though

rules wise seems straight forward, let me know if you are oaky with it:

1. standard settings
2. no custom classes
3. any combination of classes
4. unlimitted change of classes
5. no bug abuse
6. team leader of team 1 contacts team leaer of team 2. one of the team leader create a private room and invites the other team leader. then both TLs invite their mates.

how does that sound?

No custom classes would kill it.
Just keep it on default and it will be perfect.

Whoa, where did that play come from?!?

Somebody trademark that, Mickey Cantor Enterprise!

1. yes.
2. no. default classes are awful and would make less strategy, since different classes can be played different ways.
3. yes. best strat is one of each anyways, but teams should be allowed to do whatever.
4. yes. don't know how you'd really regulate this anyways.
5. yes.
6. just use FN's way of doing host/map picking. seemed to work.

okay the no custom classes was a bad idea

Everything else looks fine and straight forward.

Now the tough one: what if there is any accusation if cheating.
there is basically no way of verifying except across several tournies if several teams complain about a specific team.

There's probably no way we could find that many teams in short enough time to do a tournament.

i think we could go gradually.
Maybe a tourney with at least 4 teams to start, then 6 or more?

Not sure we need to wait 12 teams before getting smthg going.

should we start small and take it from there? or you guys want to wait for larger?
