There's a few options. I like the option of having 3 servers, 6 teams a server. 2 make it to the finals. This spreads it out a bit and has 3 teams fighting in each zone. Better yet, that is when startegy comes into play. Do you want to take the risk of attacking the other zones while your teammate survives in yours. This can be good, but what if he dies, then you die too. It comes down to strategy, skill, and of course, a bit of luck ;).

Come to think of it, I'm in favor of this idea. No semi-finals, but 2 teams from 3 servers move on.

Congrats to whatup and psyko :)


I was an extra, so i filled in for hay-lin because i guess it was already known that she couldn't show up i guess. Dimbi (her partner) didn't show up so I needed to play by myself. Anyhow I think the pool was a good idea for people who can't tell two weeks upfront if they are going to be available. kudos.


There was something odd happening one of the matches: I was leading with 890 points and sub&rico being second with 850 points. There were three people left alive: sub, emo (team blue) and me. Emo dies and sub gets 30 points for that, and then the zone collapses and we both get another 30 points. But then they won? Even though i had 920 to their 910 points?

I like the 6 teams a server idea, maybe even make it so there's three teams per zone :)
There's no place like ::1
