If you think you're interested, do say so here.
At the moment, this is a thread to gauge interest levels only .
If there is a strong and quality interest level, then stay tuned.

Here are some more hypothetical details:
a) People will join in sets of 3. One team = 3 people. Thus, you will need to police yourselves. If someone you're considering for you team has sticky hours and you question their commitment / ability to play, you may want to consider not taking them on.
b) It will be up to the teams to host and organize their matches. Each round will proceed at one week intervals.
c) If you have a micro window of availability, consider not entering. Success of tournaments is contingent upon players' flexibility. In the event of a DNP, the team that has shown greater willingness and availability to play.
_____Rules Draft 0.1
1) 3-player teams are self-formed and then announced in the official thread. Post openings or interest in the official thread [when there is one] , or form via in-game chat or email to ho.
2) Once the tourney commish has gathered a bracket-able number of announced full teams, a non-seeded single-elimination bracket will be randomly dealt. [I want a seeding process ]
3) Each match round will have a time limit of one week. Set up a thread for your upcoming match so that each player on your team and your opponent's team can post available match times/days. You can do this by email, but the thread is better so that the commish can see who the delinquent team/player was in the case of a match not being played before the one-week deadline. The team that puts forth more of a flexible scheduling effort will move on to the next round.
4) Each match consists of 2 or more fifteen-minute games. Match scoring might be a good option here (win=2, tie=1, loss=0) as it would most often result in 3 game matches. As we have seen in PSL, splitting a two game match is quite common. Here, though, it would keep going until there is a winner. I would imagine this would result in a majority of matches resulting in 3 games. This can and did happen, so make sure your agreed-upon match start time leaves enough time for players to play at least three games.
5) If your team shows up to an agreed-upon match time with less than 3 players, you must play with the team you have at hand. Unless, for some graciously altruistic reason, your opponents decide to imitate doormats or have WAY too much time on their hands - or your no-show has an outstanding reason for no-showing - it can be rescheduled within the 1-week round window. If it cannot be rescheduled, the team that initially showed up at full strength will move on [see c above]
6) The two teams playing the match are responsible for setting up their own server (or talking a server God/dess into cranking one up for them). Mind the lag, folks -always opt for proven servers and keep in mind that remote or overseas players can call forth hordes of lag demons._____

KJ is looking for Poison teeth and Hercules.
Are they game for a team up?
respond to baba's email or dar/kj's locos address.

Hop Chop!
Rosters lock on thursday-ish.

Okay, maybe this is a stupid question, and maybe a little late considering I'm already on a team, but what is the game that will be played? Nowhere that I can find does it actually say. I made the assumption that it's team battlemode, but maybe others have made the assumption that it's scrum.

So, ummm, what is it anyway?

Infinitely Confused Monkey

Where is the MAX, Paisano, Daisy Duke ticket?
Also, the Evil*Twin, Monkey, Ben - (Baby Prey) Ticket?
Bring on the heavy weights!

Bolo's getting a little carried away with his Role!

Infinitely Confused Monkey

I believe it's scrum, however I too and a little confused. I can't find anything throughout the thread that says what it is! I'm just looking at the teams and they SEEM like scrum teams...

Sil-"almost as confused as monkey"-barcalis

Yes this is scrum every one ! B)

Sent ya an Email KJ... :)

Well,that's going to make it a bit challenge for our all-heavy team. XD

Keep your heads down little ones!

What's scrum again Monkey? Is that where I drop my heavy into a game and just kill everyone that tries to pick up that weird ball with a flag stuck in it? And what's that big green tunnel? Some kind of time warp? LOL! ;)

Well, if we did go in with 3 heavies for scrum, it would be a first I bet...although a short lived first.

That ball is like a pylon or a marker buoy. You're not supposed to hit it. I think it's to assist parking.

I think you're supposed to drive into the green warpy thing, but I'm not sure why. It sure is pretty.

I think you're supposed to drive fast in "scrum" though, so we may have some problems. I guess shooting everyone in sight will pretty much be our only option, especially now that we've already paid our entrance fee and had team t-shirts made. Guess we shouldn't have spent the prize money so soon though, eh?

I have to admit...I would LOVE to play against your Heavy team...Makes it kinda Weird but it would be fun (I think) :o Would be fun unless those heavies kicked our butts! J/K :P

I'm interested... I tried to recruit Burnsey and Mess to be on my team but couldn't. I just e-mailed MaxCR, Cadc, and Ben. Hopefully I'll be able to get a team together for this in the next hour or so.,
