I say we keep the time and cross our fingers that another 1hr+ delay won't happen.

Is there any way to apply for an open team anymore? Click the link and it takes you to apply for a ladle 20 open team...not ladle 23.

Well, this page should be named just "Ladle open teams" and cleaned after every event.

Don't think this way will work in less than a week anyway

If you want to play, I suggest maybe contacting one of the team captains, asking them if there's room for you.

Ok guys, only 12 teams have signed up so far. I want to make the brackets ASAP, but I'll wait if there are any more teams that want to sign up.

If the number stays at 12, that means there will be 4 byes in the first round. Is anyone against giving the byes to the top 4 teams of Ladle 22 (aka Bowl 1)? Since all 4 of those teams are returning (for the most part) in Ladle 23, the teams that would get byes would be DS, Arrow, CT, and TX (will be TX1 since 5/6 of TX1 played on the TX team that won the Bowl...similarly for CTa since CTa still consists of the same players).

Or should we stick to randomizing it again? The advantage of seeding would make the later rounds more competitve...or at least it theoritcally should, not taking away from AW or SP (AW wasn't even in the Bowl

).

And I think this is one of those cases where giving those 4 teams byes is a great idea!

However...

We spent a lot of time voting on this stuff and I think we need to stick to our own rules.

But if everyone else thinks it's a good idea to seed this time, I won't argue against it. I really think we should take another look at the seeding discussion for the next round of voting (L-24 I think?)

It's 15 teams now

There is also BS (Broken Silence) team, who'll probably play, but they didn't sign up yet.

And I think we should let seeding rest in peace. The tourneys are much more exciting without it.

WW has 15 players for a 6 person team, but I assume that they're not sure how many will show up...if all 15 are going to show up, they should make 2 teams.

My team (Cta) has also made a few changes. We've added puuquie and k-yo while removing speed. But the makeup is still generally the same as before.

Is anyone interested in reintroducing the 3rd place match?

I would go for seeding, as the top teams from the last (b)ladle will probably make it far this ladle as well. This takes some weight off their shoulders as they won't have to play THAT long. However, new potential winners will gain a disadvantage.

Yeah totally. But I always felt like 3rd place didn't mean much unless we have regular seeding. But if we vote for seeds in L-24, then maybe a third/fourth place bout would be a good for this Ladle. We can even do it on a different day if everyone is burnt-out at the end of the tournament. Sound good?

Ok my goal is to get the brackets up tonight, but first, 2.5 things need to happen:

1) If there are any more teams that want to sign up, they need to do so ASAP
2) The Server List needs to be fixed since some of the servers either have incorrect info or are not running anymore
2.5) Team Captains need to post their Global ID's in the Team Captain section

Servers Currently Down:

Crazy Tronners Ladle 2
{PinkTomato} Fortress
The Server Pharm: Fortress Freedom
Wild West =Ladle Server=
-=VcL. Ladle Server
Flex's Fortress

I updated the Ladle Settings:

Code: Select all

RINCLUDE ladle23.cfg(http://durka.ath.cx/resource/ladle/ladle23.cfg)
SERVER_NAME 0x7fff7fLadle 23 0xff7f7f(0x7f7fffPlayer 1's Server0xff7f7f)

Changes:

ACCESS_LEVEL_SPY_MSG & ACCESS_LEVEL_SPY_TEAM both changed to -1 so no one can spy
Team Captains can use 5 /admin commands: (SILENCE, START_NEW_MATCH, TEAM_NAME_1, TEAM_NAME_2, VOICE)
When spectators join, no console message is shown
Spectators can't vote (so a mob can't come in and try and poll kick a player)
