I literally do not understand why people keep wanting new servers when they stop being played on. It's driving me insane. The amount of servers that have had different gamemodes on and people are going crazy to play it when an event comes up, then nobody bothers to rejoin it because they see it empty. Event spam, event spam, event spam. It's just ridiculous. ZRiot is the perfect example where some people have tried to keep it alive with a fucking fixed schedule to populate it, and it's still half and half. Not many play it regularly, randies don't join it that much. Why does this happen? It's pretty simple you know. People go to the servers that have people on all the time. They become a part of that server, get to know the people and find that they would want to play there again. For us, you pick it up like a new toy then throw it away when you get bored and go back to your old toys. People cling on to the last servers that fill up like a fly to shit. They ain't gona move. We have too many servers, and too little a playerbase to fill them. MG, PB, ZE, TTT, ZRIOT, Surf, Deathrun, Scrim/reg, Cinema, SurfDM, Trikz. These servers do not even get themselves filled all the time because of various reasons, but the ones that have been self sustaining tend to be the ones that have a shit ton of effort in to make it unique. MG has been lacking a bit lately but Paul made that server the top MG server for a long time because he dedicated an unhealthy amount of time on it. ZE is falling down again, but it's up and down. The amount of time I spent on surf skill was unreal, and it has a good following consistently (sometimes the only server with people on early in the morning). Same for deathrun - MPQC's time, PB - Caution and others. When we make a new server, like I said, it's made and then falls down because there is nothing special. It is the same as the hundreds of other servers, there's no reason why it would work. Some mods are for fun, I get that. A weekend of rally race, reg, whatever. They are fun but we need to start thinking about the possibility that CSS is becoming old, outdated, and frankly, people stopped caring to make new mods for it. A new server needs dedication to keep it popular. Think about it. Paul has made several of his own maps, these are pretty much unique to SG. MPQC fixed up a lot of maps for Deathrun making it unique for SG. Surf has like over 300 maps with a timer on - pretty much close to the next best server KSF. And so on.

By the way you don't necessarily have to wait round by round to play against a team. To quicken the tournament you can just play a team that you can get a hold of and arrange a time if need be, so literally one team could have finished it all and one team hasn't even played their second match. Also since it's likely to be difficult to get times when it's an American team V European team, chances are you match is going to be late on an evening or on the weekend. I would try and get at least 1 match per week done for every team, so we do make progress. Remember it is best to 3 as well.

Tournament has started. You can arrange times to play yourself or wait for me to give you an estimated time to play for. PM on steam or vent when you are playing. If I can't spectate the match then take screenshots of the scores for all 3 rounds. I'll confirm with both captains who won.

I would expect all premiums to do as much though, otherwise what would be the point in buying them?

Someone must have deleted it

Vote is 5 yes 7 no. Rejected.

Any update noob?

Just going to point out since Xoddox's team has 7 players now, please remember it's still a $300 prize that needs split. If you want it split between 7 that's fine, but ideally you want 5 so you can get more if you win. Either split it in 7 (about $43 each) or use a permanent team of 5 with 2 subs that will play in an emergency.

How often would a separate forum be used though?

Game Freaks team is full TCP's team needs 2 more. Mapper's team is full. Nishok's team is full. If you already have a full team but they haven't signed up please pm me. Xoddox one of your guys needs to be a member gamer +. You must 2 or more in your team.

Theme Park World was the one I was thinking of. Forgot Time Splitters, also a great game.

The 8 teams have been made and added. If you're wanting a team to join, look through the ones with remaining slots available. The tournament will start once every team has managed to get 5 members.

I haven't got anything planned to broadcast each mach, but if someone wants to spectate the games and stream them it's up to them.

For all the people wanting a team CRY ME A RIV3R - Tournament Animosity - Tournament and maybe Rattlers - Tournament Just click join team and wait to see if they accept you.

Be aware of rule 5.

This SGSL was supposed to be a trial, according to Caution, so I didn't put a proper prize. Next SGSL should have one.

http://www.steam-gamers.net/forum/community-announcements/52713-sg-lol-tournament.html#post661065 I suppose. Those that can't enter should probably post in http://www.steam-gamers.net/forum/community-announcements/52713-sg-lol-tournament.html#post661065 saying they want a team invite. Octa already did. Swag.

Fo' real this time. Link to tournament page - > http://www.steam-gamers.net/forum/tournaments.php?do=view&id=22 Liink to make a team -> http://www.steam-gamers.net/forum/teams.php?do=addteam Custom teams. If you are to be a captain of a team, create a team. Or join a current team your captain made. 5 v 5. Summoners rift. Round Robin. Best out of 3 matches. $300 prize split 5 ways. ($60 each) Supporter status and 20k credits each. (Non transferrable). Runner up - same as 1st except no money. Good luck. Rules 1) Your must turn up for your match when scheduled. Failure to do so will mean you forfeit. The times will be posted once the tournament has started. 2) Use the players in your teams, 2 subs allowed (7 slot teams maximum allowed to enter). Once you have played your first match, you cannot change the members of your team or else you will be disqualified. 3) You must give me a paypal email address for me to send the money to you if you win. Failure to do so will obviously mean you get no moneyz. 4) A regular 5 v 5 game on summoners rift must be played. Notihng else. Win by destroying their nexus. 5) Players who do not normally go onto SG but want to play will need to sign up on the forum first if they haven't already. Additionally your team needs to be comprised of at least 2 member gamers or above in SG so a group of randoms don't just steal the pot of gold. This is an SG tournament after all. How a round robin system works: Essentially you play every other team in the tournament, so you play 7 matches. You gain points by winning, and whichever team has the most points after playing every other team wins. If there is a tie then those teams tied will play each other until a winner is determined.

It's gay with 10 teams.

Ok, I've got some other people (not within SG normally) wanting to play this too, so I'm going to go for round robin with your own teams, not random. I understand this is unfair for those that don't normally play in a team, but if you always play solo on LoL then you may not want to enter then. Get the people you normally play with, SG or not, to become a team with you and join up. I'll edit this post and chatbox with the tournament links to click once I set it up.
