Yes

Not entirely sure, asking the Tournament organizer in a meeting tomorrow, but there is a high chance that teams will be seated together.

32 for 6v6 and 16 for Highlander, but may be adjusted depending on signups

Format/structure depends on signups, scheduling and rules are TBD, our admin team is on this to get some news out hopefully this weekend (whitelists, map pool, rule sets etc.)

We're also setting up a discord for Copenhagen Games to coordinate travel and accommodations, as well as being able to answer questions and help for organization during the tournaments.

HudPassTimeBallStatus/HudPassTimePassNotify and the various other 'HudPassTime...' res files.

If you are on a local server: sv_cheats 1; vgui_drawtree 1 and tick 'Highlight Selected' and find the hud elements by expanding the tree with vgui items/elements

ozfortress starts next Sunday on the 28th with season 21

Are you also including Highlander rulesets in this discussion, they do play 5cp and koth, doubt you need to mess with ABBA(BA) on payload.

Time to get CTF rules sorted once and for all! /s

-----

TLDR: get rid of halves!

The current winlimit or windifference 5 for 5CP is fine as is BO5 or BO7 on koth
Golden Cap: unlimited time, timelimits on LAN except for the final stages of playoffs.
As long as the winlimits/-differences are made clear in the rules it's up to the organizers to pick what suits best for their tournament/matches.

I've started on a small FAQ in the main post answering some concerns/questions, this will be updated when we know more and when there are other questions that need more answers.

The tournaments will be scheduled so that you can participate in both. Streaming of games will alternate between KritzKast & Essentials.

Let’s make this the most competitive community LAN yet!

What happens if I get knocked out early in the 6v6 or Highlander tournament?
There will possibly be a ‘lower bracket’ for remaining teams to keep you occupied on the Friday, provided there are sufficient signups.

More information about the Highlander and 6v6 Tournaments at Copenhagen Games will be announced soon, we're working on finalizing PC rental details and confirming actual prizepools numbers for both tournaments.

Tournament scheduling will allow you to participate in either or both game modes.

- LAN Event Organization is Copenhagen Games
- Tournament organization and production of event coverage will be done by Esport United (like ESU Community Rumble).
- The following twitch channels have been provided to broadcast the event on:

• Essentials.TF - 6v6
  
• KritzKast - Highlander

Update: More information in the main Copenhagen Games 2018 thread

It honestly keeps surprising me how the 6s community thinks they are the only game mode entitled to a LAN.

Same with RGL and Ultiduo, if people are willing to put in money they get to say how many players per team need to show up. If that happens to involve an actual LAN space as a player you can show up an play for the money and bitch on the forums but you're not the one with the money and don't get to decide what happens with it ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Also, less teams => bigger chance of winning and a bigger cut of the prizepool, right?

Tournament UI - SpectatorTournamentGUI.res
- Sorting is class based (scout -> spy), but can be inverted with delta_x and delta_y

Matchmaking (Casual/Ranked) - HudMatchStatus.res
- Based on when you joined the server (?), can not be controlled except for min/max width of the panels

Readying up (MvM/readymode 2) - HudTournament.res
- Sorting based on when you joined the server, can be inverted with delta_x(_comp) and delta_y(_comp)

Scoreboard - (MvM)Scoreboard.res
- Sorting based on points of the players

Copenhagen Games is from 28th of March to April 1st as an annual Danish LAN...

Various fixes have been applied to WietHUD, more detailed list of changes can be found here.

Changes

• Fixed MvM lobby warning icon positioning
  
• WietHUD logo in main menu is not affected anymore by texture LOD
  changes
  
• Gift wrapping dialog item backgrounds are now correct
  
• Disabled the Randomize Seed option when applying a War Paint
  
• Tournament Mode player panel fixes
  
• Updated default hud files

Direct download

You have to edit almost every BackpackBorder declared in the clientscheme.res

Take a look at WietHUD's weapon skins and regular backpack border overrides to make them a single color instead of just the outline for the majority if not all of the border names you would have to edit.

In addition to that: showschemevisualizer clientscheme in console allows you to see borders/fonts/colors which have been defined in the clientscheme for a nifty overview.

You're not the first one to ask

Remove custom hud, see if it you still crash, if not, remove resource/ui/mainmenuoverride.res and resource/gamemenu.res or update your hud.

Update your hud? That should have the new main menu

cl_hud_killstreak_display_time 0 // Disable display and sound of killstreak notifications

that's done with hudanimations in the HudHealthBonusPulse and HudHealthDyingPulse events.
