I would like to apologize ahead of time for the condition of today's events. I had indicated that all the necessary configs and fixes would be in place for the Frag Fest events -- and going into it that was certainly the intention.

We had some issues with our platform code in the testing environment, not being able to work these out in time for the first Wednesday Frag Fest event meant that we were unable to release the most current mod update.

Unfortunately this forced us to run today's event on the old mod version with the black screen issue and improper configs in place.

We expect to have all new updates available by Sunday's Frag Fest event. Again, very sorry for the inconvenience today. I do hope some of you were able to have a good time despite the shortcomings.

I'm putting together a team for tonight and so far every single person I've asked has said "What's that?" when I mentioned the razer tourney.

tscdangoI think posting things like this as news articles on TFTV (especially with front page images) would be really helpful. I almost missed this forum post, and to be honest there isn't much happening in the news posts anyways.
If Dilusive or someone else from Razer Arena would like to work with me on that we can most likely coordinate something.

You should really make this happen.

There are currently only 5 teams signed up to the european cup tomorrow. Most of the top teams aren't able to play tomorrow so if you're a high team or even lower then this is an opportunity to get some free money. If you're scrimming tomorrow night I see no reason why you wouldn't play in this tournament and support Razer since they are one of few companies supporting tf2 right now and you have the chance to win FREE MONEY.

I'm not sure if the American tournament can actually last seven hours (the European one cannot), but for 90% of teams it definitely won't go anywhere near that long. Might as well play and see how you do and if you end up going all the way; worry about it at the time.

There are only 8 / 16 teams signed up for tomorrow's NA tournament, and we're using ETF2L rules - 5 win difference / 30min. I don't think it'll run for 7 hours, even with Golden Caps. I'd hope not lol.

E: Is there a Steam Group for Razer Arena yet? I think there should be one so people that don't go on TFTV / play other RA games can be kept up to date

We have made significant changes to the platform and the game mods. Myself and the Gaming Grids team have been testing both as much as possible to ensure a smooth experience tomorrow.

Most of the platform changes have been directed at back end administration features so that we can better assist should issues arise.

We have also included automatic demo upload right into your match lobby. We have done testing on this, but cannot (without more testing) guarantee the integrity of all the demo uploads. The demo files will become available shortly after the match score has been finalized.

The Majority of the mod changes revolve around properly supporting ETF2L configs and the automatic demo uploads I mentioned above.

I have reduced the timing between each round from 1 hour to 40 minutes. If I see that I can reduce this timing more, I will do so. This is in attempt to reduce the overall time you are waiting around.

Hoping for a smooth event tomorrow. Should you experience any issues please let us know as soon as possible so that we can address them immediately. Big thanks to everyone who signed up!

See you EU players in 4 hours!

That golden cap was confusing as fuck, I genuinely expected it to be a different config, didn't even rollout to mid, not gonna blame it on that tho cuz we could have easily won that round if we didnt mess up our last push.

Other than that (and no logs) it was all perfect, love the site and the infrastructure of the cups. Can't wait to play wednesday, shame we won't have kiler4fun that day.

Can you help me to identify what exactly is confusing about Golden Cap. Should we look at launching Golden Cap immediately instead of resetting player position and requiring an additional ready up?

I personally like the ready up before Golden Cap as it gives teams a chance to take a breath and discuss strategy.

ETF2L Golden Cap states winlimit 1 and maptimer 0 -- Did something other than this take place or was that config simply not expected?

Ok, so the way etf2l works is, you have a config for the normal game and if it ends tied up at the end of the regular time, the game ends and then you have to run the golden cap config (or change winlimit to 1) starting a round from scratch with winlimit 1. Requiring an additional ready up.

We tied 3-3 with like 5? seconds remaining of the regular 30 minute time, so we thought that was gg, but instead after the 5 secs of regular time left the game just kept going.

Obviously we weren't prepared, I think no one of our players rolled out to mid. We lost mid straight away because we assumed if we were gonna play golden cap what would happen is the game would end and we would start the golden cap round after a config reset like in etf2l.

We eventually settled for that and kept playing, even after losing mid we still were able to push back to their last so I'm not blaming the loss on that but it could have easily been different as we were wiping them on a lot of midfights.

If I understand correctly. When the map timer ended, the game carried on under the current round timer.

Instead we need to immediately reset positions and prompt that ready up as soon as the map timer ends -- Assuming of course there is a tie in score.

Yes that's what happened, not sure if you're familiar with the intricacies of competitive tf2 but Rollouts and Midfights are a big focus of the game, so having a round start during the rollout without people expecting it or ready for it is gonna be a bit of a problem.

And yes, resetting both team positions at the end of the regular time and requiring an additional ready up for the golden cap to start would be the way to do it. (assuming scores are tied at the end of regular time)
