New PS3 tournament/ladder/league (discussion)

So there will be a lot of people around, it's a good time to start forming teams, sometime during the next week.

Hi Kozz, they didn't say but I'd think they'd want to know what they're sponsoring before it starts. My guess is that they'll want to sponsor some tournament similiar to Ace of Aces, for individuals. Easier to market that.

Anyhow, I don't see why your competition shouldn't start, even without prices.

I hope the near-death of these forums doesn't make people stop posting though. That was nearly the end of everything.

I agree it would be easier to have prizes for a 1 on 1 thing. What do you think of the top-8/second-8/unranked ladder scheme? Where you'd make a challenge to the next highest group instead of to individuals, and play the first one to defend, and they get points if they win, if they lose, you take 8th spot in their group.

I'll wait one or two more days for comments on team rules and then post a draft proposal for a ruleset, maybe as a poll.

Then we can form teams and kill each other.

That may be possibly the best summing up of the human race I've ever read. Genius.

working on revised rules now, based on all the comments here, will post them in a day or two. Hopefully team formation can more or less coincide with the "battle of the planes" thing lost cause is organizing (friday and saturday, I think)
