MTA 0.3 Playback League

[[FMJ]chode]

After many discussions me and dom have worked out a format for how this 0.3 tournament will work (mentioned in a different topic) and we have ended up with this, which is a little like how the old EULeague used to work.

The MTA 0.3 Playback League (we thought it needed a catchy name)

Clans so far

FMJ

DNA

FsK

XII

UVA

RP

PCP

bTk

TTH

NSA

VCK [|||||||||] 90%

TmM

Official Playback Site:http://www.mta-fmj.com/playback

Rules for the league format are as follows:

Dependent on how many clans enter they will be split into 4 groups occouringly. At first this will be random and all the groups will be equal. Each clan plays every other clan in thier group twice to gain a type of seeding which would be based on wins/loses and rounds won/lost. The top four seeds will the be put into the top group, the next 4 will be in the 2nd group and so forth untill everyone has a selective group.

From here each clan then plays each other clan once in what we will call a round. After every round, the top and bottom of each league will swap places with its respective upper or lower league. eg the top of league 3 will be swapped with the bottom of league 2. The top of League 1 will be crowned the champ of that round and that will be recorded and name gone down in Playback history!

Rules for the matches are as follows:

1) No modding/cheating/trainers/hacking etc.

2) No pausing during any round, and is recommended no pausing at all.

3) 3 rounds. 1 attack, 1 defense, 1 Mayhem:

-Teams should choose a specific base with easily marked parameters to define the base area.

-Only 1 unspecified member of the team has to be in this area at all times whilst defending.

-Once both teams are ready one clan will attack the others base. And the second round this will be reversed

-Once a person dies then they are not allowed to respawn and they are out of the round.

-In the Mayhem round anything is allowed bar any of the ground rules. Helikills/Carkills allowed. Weapons may be picked up (inc spaz) before the round has begun. Athough there is no official time limit for these, they may be stopped at any time at the referee's discretion ie if they are taking too long

4) If a player crashes and is deemed in combat by the refferee they are out of that particular round. However if that player is deemed out of combat then they may respawn.

5) No defending in the Mayhem round. This would be setting up all/most of your members in specified positions in any base-like area that may seem pre-planned, however fighting can occur in these areas.

6) Even sides are preffered but on the event of unbalenced sides then the dissadvantaged team will be allowed as many respawns as players they are missing

7) Helikills and weapon pickups are not allowed during the first 2 rounds of attack and defend although they are allowed in the 3rd Mayhem round. Carkills are alowed in every round

8 ) All 3 rounds muct be played whether or not the winner has already been determined by the 2nd round. The 3rd round should be most fun anyway so id hope not to much persuasion will be needed.

9) The referee's word is final. These rules are here to aid people in having good fun fair matches, and any attempt to abuse these rules to win matches will be frowned upon

10) In the event of a clan not showing for any official matches then the match will be forfeit to the opposing clan. Further punishment may be taken for repeat offenders which may include exclusion from the league.

These rules may be subject to change by US!!!!!1!!11!!!!!eleventytwo!!omfg!!himum!

What does that have to do with stopping this tournement?

[El sTuD`X ™]

MTA 0.3r2 was good,i wouldn't forgott that

[Hieu.JZX26]

NSA are interested, we will have a clanvote if we confirm to play. I JUST LOVE THE OLD ROBBER SPAWN AND THE JUMPING STUBBY

[zerb]

Hope to finally see the old mexicans come back in action. M60 is quite useful in clanwars in 0.3

[The Azer]

U can sign Majestic Twelve/XII up , isn't TmM interested?

[njr1489]

why this? VC-MP will be released in a few days

0.3r2 is the best for tournaments in MTA. It is just perfect the way it is, and doesn't need customization at all. I would play, but with the PC problems I have now, they need to be sorted out.

[MrJax]

We're still up for it, and finally..a good set of rules.

[mirror]

=bTk= might be able to put us on pending.

Thanks for all the support guys, we hope we can help you all have some good old 0.3 fun. Me and Dom are working hard to get this up and running as fast as possible (but no earlier than the 15th as Dom is away), so if clans could spread the word and make there mind up asap it will be that extra bit helpful.

I am checking this thread regulary and editing the first post a lot for easy reading, so that is where most updates will be found but i will post about any major updates like the following:

Playback site now online for quick reference to the rules and other information. This is where most of the results and fixtures will be posted so bookmark this now

The url is http://www.mta-fmj.com/playback

Thanks goes to Oli for hosting the site

[DominionSpy]

(but no earlier than the 15th as Dom is away)

Just to clarify that - I'm not away right now (evidentally), but I am away from the 10th to the 15th and it's obviously not going to start in the next 4 days .

[njr1489]

I think I might get VCK to play. I just need more members to know.

BTW for anyone who needs 0.3r2 there is a download link here:

any time chode

[Vicer/Spitfire]

Any particular server it will be hosted in? I get like 350-400 ping when I play on a English server

[[FMJ]chode]

Servers will most likely be in Europe, with hopefully some in the US. We are not fussy about pings though , "laggers" have as much right to play as anyone else.

[=TmM= DuffBeer]

Who said we ain't

So, I dedicate a LamaBurger, to our Lama friend here.

/me eats the burger.

UPDATE: A 'mySql' database has been made by DomSpy for the site which will make it far easier for us to update once the league has started.

Intrest seems to have lowered resently for some reason We are putting a lot of work into this and we will not just let it die. Once DomSpy has got back off his holiday the tornament will begin and all clans currently on the "Clans so far" list will be sorted into tables and matches decided.

[Oli]

sounds good
