The RUGC Team Fortress 2 Open Tournament!!!

The RUGC Tournament Brackets have been created. I did this completely at random. A friend of mine placed random colors on the bracket without me seeing the bracket, and I randomly assigned the colors to teams.

Because 10 teams is a difficult number for a bracket, four teams will have to play all four weeks, while 6 teams begin their official seasons on week 2. Those 6 teams who aren't in the 'play-in' games on Week 1 will play exhibition matches from the team across from them on the bracket (i.e. Fruit vs GL One, Reloaded vs Trees, Great Lakes Two vs West Too).

Maps and Schedules

Instead of slotting specific times for games, games will have weeks. That means that you are responsible for contacting the other team and getting the game done sometime during that week. We are working on server space right now, and we plan to use Lobby as a front end.

*Week 1: August 1st - August 7th

*Week 2: August 8th - August 14th

*Week 3: August 15th - August 21st

*Week 4: August 22nd - August 28th

Map Schedule

Third Maps are Tie-Breakers if needed.

*Week 1: CP_Badlands, PL_Upward, KOTH_Viaduct

*Week 2: CP_Coldfront, CP_Gravelpit, KOTH_Sawmill

*Week 3: CP_Freight, PL_Badwater, CTF_Turbine

*Week 4: CHAMPIONSHIP; Each Team Selects a map, tiebreaker TBD.

Rules

Maps will be played by regular tournament rules; 30 minute time limits. Complete Polycount Sets are banned, as are Lasers (and anything that may come after the laser update), and of course, The Sandman.

I'm sure there will be plenty of questions so feel free to contact me on steam. Also, if you are a team captain, please PM me so I have all your contact information and I can create a contact list so that you can most easily organize games / scrims with other squads.

Also, we have some server space; but again, let me know if you've got spare server space to host games.

Thanks! Good Luck!

EDIT: A scheduling webform will be added soon. Also, a losers bracket will be organized as soon as we have losers.
