That is why I am getting my own Chicago server this time.

SILDEEZY IS BACK?

Is it really a shotgun jump to jump at the enemy and shotgun them in the back after they jump past you to keep them from scoring?

I agree with you Kairu, but I also agree with Rainman. Shotgun jumping can be annoying to play against but is hard to enforce against it. Shotgun jumping can also be really effective and is used by a lot of top bballers especially in tournaments and can be a great advantage if you are good at it. So I honestly don't know if I should ban it or not, it really depends on what everyone else has to say. But I agree with you on trying to ban it from the tournament.

Ok, to specify, goaltending is standing on the hoop to keep someone from scoring.

Hey everyone, I will be buying a Chicago server in the morning from nfoservers. I got the suggestion to do the tournament over 2 days, instead of one. So the tournament will be January 23rd and January 24th, hopefully sometime at night. I am not really sure what times to do the tourney, so I would like to see what would be most convenient for the Team Fortress 2 community. The first place team will get 2 keys (1 key per each player). I am welcome to take donations for the 2nd and 3rd place prizes, feel free to add me. The tournament will have 16 teams playing in it. Sign ups start tonight. I would like to have at least 4 backup teams incase a few of the main teams that were planning to play can not make it. I will do a first come first serve and will be fair for everyone.
RULES: 1.) Your primary weapon may only consist of the stock (or festive) rocket launcher, or the original. You may not use the rocket jumper, direct hit, liberty launcher, etc.
2.) You can only use shotgun (or festive shotgun), not gunboats or other secondary weapons.
3.) You may only use the shovel as your melee, the escape plan, market gardener, and anything that is not the stock shovel is restricted.
4.) Shotgun jumping is allowed.
5.) Do not goaltend, you will be warned the first time for it. If you do it a second time, your team will be disqualified.

I am sure there are other rules that should be put into place, so if anyone thinks of anything or has a suggestion, feel free to post it. Thanks. I can't think of anything else that is important to the tournament right now, so if I think of anything I forgot, I will add it to this tf.tv thread.
If you are going to play in the tournament, you must post who you are playing with, and a name of the "team". This will help me to keep the brackets organized with an easy team name to go by.

Hey Cherry, yea. Seattle is fine. I will probably only use 2 servers atidre, i dont know why i was thinking 3. And yea dane, i am buying keys tomorrow and will probably put some to the winners of the tournament. Donations are also welcome, just feel free to add me if anyone would like to donate.

Well, gargle. The first tournament that i did that was very unorganized had 2-3 servers but it still took a long while.

Dreamboat, when is kevispwn's tourney? I will try to find it. I would like to sign up for it. Gargle, i would like to have enough servers so i can get the tourney over with kind of quick. The first one i played in was unorganized. We had 2-3 servers but only 1 caster total. So it went very slow, no one really likes a slow tournament, do they? And thanks Scilliant.

Just trying to get a server right now. Once i get that out of the way then I will do sign up's right affter TechDude.

Yes, i know grant. which makes doing this a lot harder. But i'm hoping everyone will move on from the past and we can work this tournament out.

I will make it more organized flat line

Yes, i have grant. This will be a success though. This will be a lot more organized. I have just finished playing in 2 tournaments, one of them was very unorganized and the other was an mge 2v2 bball tournament and was not fun. I want to make this one very organized so everyone will enjoy it.

Hey, I am starting to do some planning for a bball tournament that will be January 24th. I will need 2-3 servers and maybe a caster to stream on twitch.tv. I will be taking in 16 teams for the tournament, signups will be after I can get a few servers. Not sure if there will be a buyin or not. I would rather it be convinient for all the ballers playing in the tourney. Post your thoughts and replies here. Thanks.
