if it was any other time of year nobody would bat an eye at sigafoo, because he's definitely casted comp before, in a variety of formats, including 6s.

the proximity to his dumb tournament is purely coincidental and shouldn't degrade from his casting performance.

30 minutes before the event start, a queue is opened for people who don't have a full roster and still want to participate, this queue will try to make new teams are people tag along, so yes it will be random players.
If you want to play with your friends but you don't have a roster, remember to create a party (top left), add your friends, and then add to the queue as a party to find remaining players for your roster.

Have fun

I am actually really, really surprised that 30 teams have registered in about a week. Crazy.

If more than two teams sign up in the next 18 hours, we'll run part of the tournament on Friday. If you're projecting your team to be in the top ~20 teams, don't worry about playing on Friday. If you project yourself to be in the bottom half of the tournament, check back on this thread in 17 hours or so and I'll have more news regarding seedings and such.

Again, here's how it works:
1) Seeding is determined by tournament admins who will look at your roster and determine your placement.
2) If more than 32 teams sign up but less than 64, the 32 teams with the highest seeds will get a by in the first round and will play their first matches on Saturday. The remaining teams will play their first matches on Friday.
3) If 64 or more teams sign up by tomorrow then everyone will be playing matches on Friday night.

=====================================

Regarding substitutions: I had people asking about how to add subs to their rosters. You should be able to add them directly to your team but doing so may deregister you from the tournament so don't forget to re-register after you've changed your roster.

FACEIT_MikeyTwo important things guys: 1) If you decide to change your roster, for example swapping one player out - you have to re-sign the tournament and sign back with the new roster (Applying changes to roster on website =/= changing roster signed up for the tournament) 2) If you don't have a team, you can sign up solo - 30 minutes before tournament starts. It's a cool way to participate and also meet new friends, crash and burn in first round or maybe further into the tournament (dont let your dreams be dreams)

There also appears to be some confusion around how the pick ban system works. Each round is Bo3 so the pick/bans will look like this: ban ban pick pick ban ban pick. I'm not sure if it happens through the website or once you're in the server, will report back ASAP.

One more change, unfortunately. Due to limitations of the FACEIT platform at this time, we cannot have substitutes so the 6 players you have on your roster need to be used for the entire weekend. Sorry for any inconvenience.

Your roster may currently have more than 6 players on it but once tournament check-in starts it will ask you for 6 players and those are the 6 players that will be allowed into the servers for the entire weekend.

In addition, the match cannot start with 11 players in the server. 12 players must be in the server for a match to start.

Yeah unfortunately two top 10 teams had issues tonight which is why we delayed registration/check in by 20 minutes. dog1 unfortunately couldn't play because we didn't have sub capabilities built in by the time the tournament started, and evil mr didn't check in because their cpt was not online sooo rip. Sorry to any teams who couldn't play because of those kinds of circumstances.

Other than that this thing started and we're good to go! Seeds 1-32 play tomorrow, seeds 33-44 play tonight. Matches tomorrow start at 4pm pacific, and I recommend showing up a bit early just in case. Good luck guys!

Bird noises were about 40 minutes late, but didn't get default loss vs us because invite? idk

We don't really care at the end of the day, and they needed the money they might get apparently so whatever. Just kinda dumb considering the last team we played got a default loss vs us because they were one second late. Rules should more clearly state that if you message admins you can apparently be really late and still play your game. It's sorta unfair to other teams who wouldn't have known about this.

Good luck to them regardless, I didn't go negative in the first map

The reason your first game was a forfeit loss and not the second was because when I asked the other team in your first game they said their player wasn't going to show up. When I asked Bird Noises if Rolling was going to show, they told me he would, and then he did.

There is no special treatment towards invite teams, we just want to avoid as many forfeits as possible, and in your first game there was no way it could have been played since they didn't have 6 players.

it would've been nice if you'd made a more clear rule about the time till default can be claimed. We waited far too long for that game and if we'd known the rule beforehand there would've been no problem.

Absolutely, that should have been communicated better. Unfortunately the FACEIT system in it's current form is VERY strict, and if we didn't manually extend times half of all the games would end up being forfeits.
