SUMO TOURNAMENT!

To be held on Saturday TBA at 8:00 P.M. GMT (3:00 PM EST)

For those who don't know what sumo is I'll give a brief explanation.

Sumo is an all gunner gametype where you can only use slam, grapple, melee and jetpacks. The map is grenADEiii, and one gunner from each team dukes it out in the center (annihilator area). When a gunner is defeated, another one jumps in to take his fallen bro's place. Due to previous problems, jackbot control will be necessary.

For the tournament, there will be multiple games held, depending on the amount of people entered. For each group of people, there will be three games held, and whoever totals the most kills comes in first place for that game. The top 5 or so players will advance to the next round. Once 10 people are left, there will be four games held. The top scoring six will advance to a 3 v 3 game, then a 2 v 2 and finally a 1 v 1. Whoever wins is crowned #1 sumo of January.

Note: For each game, only 10 of the twelve players will be competing, whoever is host may not compete, and the other person will be for filming. If by chance the host and filmer end up on the same team, the lobby must be remade until the host and filmer are on separate teams.

To sign up for host, post your results for the speed test thing.
To sign up for filmer, post your high quality recordings, and the four highest quality recorders will be chosen.

Could I suggest Saturday/Sunday?

Americans will have school, college, work n' stuff at 3PM

Will do.

To the Americans who work on Saturdays, get a job that takes less space in your life. I'll bet that Syd gets called for work that Saturday :lol:

However, thank you for taking Europeans into consideration. 8PM is super, so count me in

I'm in, I need more Grapple kills!

I'll volunteer to host, if this is good enough.




Btw, I did this in the northeast part of Canada, I live in Kansas

Why wouldn't I sign up for this? Count me in.

I'd like to play. I can also host.


This was tested from the other side of the country, so most people shouldn't have too much trouble connecting to me, and most people say my host is great.

Edited for Ping Test.

Also, will there be backup host and filmers? I think I can make it, but stuff could happen in between now and the tournement.

Why do you think I have four of each? =P

Now I feel silly.

No way i can do this at 3pm eastern, a guy's gotta sleep. If the time can be moved i can do it and host

Sleeping at 3pm on a saturday? What the flux?

Besides 3pm is the best time to allow both people from EU and the US to play at once.

I've said it a million tiems, i'll say it again lol, i work 3rd shift.

Oooh, that's teh sux.

8 PM GMT? That's.... 9 PM for me. Brilliant guys, just brilliant.

Please, sign me up. IG THOMBOW.

Of course I am in.

Last night when I was recording the Sumo matches I think I have found a good quality settings but I just forgot to change the size and framerate of it. I will do some more testing this week.

sign me up too compete.

Please make sure your lists fit how many people will be actually in game and filming.
I am in,
just put my gt as Scented Midget. I will be playing as either Super Boy Meat, or my new account I am too sXe

I think, for Jackbot control, everyone should jump off a cliff, switch to assassin, rape the jackbot and jump off again. #repeat sumo!
