community choose 5v5

no it didn't

tbh we should try both types and see what's more popular when it comes to playing in cups/leagues, not only in polls :)

hf :>

5on5 :<

5v5 for sure!:)

many signups i see

well 5v5 got voted, so here it is, first batch of 5v5 cups, and as far as I am concerned, last batch of them from me and going back to 4v4. It's really not worth making cups and wasting time for 3 teams.

that was the same with 4v4 mate :) remember quad ctf cup with £1000 twice? Like 2 teams.

That's not only the fault of available teams. You had to register and pay for it to compete. Sure you could win more than you paid for signing up, but look how many people already complain about the fee id asks for playing Quake Live. Even if it is old content, paying ~22 euro's to play the content available isn't a lot at all.

It was just a bad format and having people individually pay a fee to enter with a whole team is just a bad choice.

I would like to see a double elimination bracket 4v4 CTF tourney with 8/16 teams where they pay 10 euro per team and top 3 get some sort of prizes. I would say a 8 team invitational with DE, where good teams face off against each other might be a good idea. We need something worth playing for so that teams get formed and organized and currently it is just a mess with teams of mercs that just play for a day and break up again.

Maybe in cooperation with organizations like Zotac or find a company like steelseries that are able to put up some prizes in return for publicity.

I would get a team together to play for 100 euro's first place only in a bracket tournament for CTF. I don't care if it will only result on me getting 20 or 25 euro, it is just fun to compete for it and buy a steak from it after if my team wins! ;D Else grats to the winners and try again next time :p

The second cup had 3 players teams, and each participating player had to pay to play.

Remember the first Quad cup, with like 16 teams registering?

I think even more good 4v4 teams would be available now, since some split up and joined up with others. Not sure about that though :p

Let's all play TDM, CTF is seems to be dead. Thaks to retard crew :D

So where are the teams like GRAND and DP? And all those other teams that supported switching to 5v5? It shouldn't be too difficult to gather 5 on a monday evening?

I can't play, because I am not near a gaming PC at the moment :( But with these sign ups I guess it is not really worth playing.

I like cups being organized to play in structurized brackets, it replaces having to search for practice matches. The community splitting really hurts these cups it seems. Can we try a 4v4 cup in a week or two with good announcements and perhaps some small (mousepads, ESL pro accounts?) prizes? I would be game! ;]

The community clearly wants 5v5, all three clans.

Hopefully we will go back to 4v4 now.

thought k1ck won't play at all, regardless of teamsize.

Both k1ck and eo are currently not participating for the sole reason that several of the players refused to play 5v5.

if im not wrong, ive seen eo play in 5v5 this esh cup (as bloodface), so it's only k1ck atm

Last time I asked hazrd about eo, (which was about 2 weeks ago) hipshot was currently playing for GRAND, hazrd for nEu, draven and gerppa were not in any clan.

But then again, one daily cup is probably the best way to tell whether a clan is actually active.

you said participating. they participated that day obviously. learn to express yourself before trying some fail sarcasm.

"The present participle is a participle that ends in ing. It can be used with the auxilliary verb 'to be' to form the continuous tense."

No, seems like I can express myself fine. Your comprehension, however..

merriam webster quote?

we only played out of the boredom and ONLY in that ONE day cup, also to see why we arent playing 5v5, and blade has explained them already well enough to go further with that.

aside from go4 cups powered by steelseries and some premium esl acc only cups on esl you won't really find any prizes. and even if everyone who played ql had esl prem acc i still doubt there would be prizes (for ql that is).

Well the prizes is just an extra. I think having 1 day cups with a bracket system could work well with a 4v4 format. If it is announced in time, broadcasted well and maybe the admins or other people associated with it could try on asking around to recruit teams to enter the tournament. I would dedicate some time to test out if a 8 team bracket tournament with 4v4 CTF is possible in the upcoming 2 weeks or so on 1 or 2 days, but need some help with that. Will see when I am back in a couple of days :)

cause my gfx card died and we are only 5 with me.
and ye we probably get 50 signups if this cup would be 4o4!

So if the cup was 4v4, GRAND could have played without you. Just counting numbers mate!

Not any mode has 50 signups (except a duel cup with prize money) so that statement is irrelevant! ;]

did u ever hear of irony?! :F

and if the cup was 4o4, we didnt even consider signing up.

CTF 5v5 FAIL CUP

funny thing tho, as the cup goes i see quite some clans looking for 5v5 ctf praccy :D
