I'd like to participate but I'm a lovely two-star, whatever that rank is called. Is there anyone else participating that's at my level of play, or should I just not bother so that I don't weaken one team considerably?

Just creatin' some rivalries off the bat.

A request, if you will. That we allow Mr. Pink to play in this tournament so I can draft him into my team (if I am a captain)

I wish to create the ultimate heel team. :bahgawd:

We're taking any and all goons. The biggest goal is fun M I RITE.

Already at 21 people so the turn out is gonna be high. Any suggestions on what to do if we land on an uneven number? Also I know that we have a few regulars that aren't goons. Anyone able to reach out to them?

I would love to do a tournament but it would depend a lot on when the matches are scheduled and how they are spaced.

Not sure if it would be doable, but a mini league would also be cool. Like 8 players per team, each team would play once or twice a week and then a playoff.

Edit: Might want to change the google doc to a survey so people don't gently caress with it

Whoever is running the spreadsheet should probably lock it and add people who post in here. I think this is why it's done that way.

With the turnout I'm seeing and a couple of the regulars still missing, it looks like this will have to span over a pretty large margin of time. So your league idea may have to be the way we go.

Roughly half of the people will likely bail when it comes time to actually play games.

Is it possible to setup a caster setup/gotv in the pick up game servers? Only a handful of people are in spec to ready up for the next match but I'd imagine more would want to watch a tournament being played rather than a random pick up game.

Yeah that was one of the reasons I was thinking a mini league with 8 to 10 people per team might be better.

I'm gonna leave signups up until Friday to give time to people. From there I'll make a post with everyone's name and the vital information (Obviously Favorite Catchphrase is a must). Then we can decide on how we want to make the teams up.

Doesn't matter. The spreadsheet was made primarily to see how many people we have interested. As long as you can identify yourself to your teamates once the teams are arranged you're all set.

My tournament team has a very flexible schedule and is available to dumpster the rest of you for our free skins pretty much anytime.
Probably more likely people will show up and play if they make their own teams with friends. With some random draft I bet most people just don't show when they don't like their team.

Thanks to Necco for making a good point, I think after setting up the teams we can have a few weeks for some practicing / scrims that will let us see how teams are. I'm also hoping the idea of getting some kind of prize is enough to keep people interested.

Both of the goon servers already run gotv, so anyone in spec in the actual server can cast

I'm sure we can scrape togther some crappy skins at least. I have tons of duplicate stattrak blues worth nothing that I am too lazy to sell on the marketplace or bet with.

You could let people sign up in their own pre-made teams and also have a separate area for people trying to form teams/free agents to help them get more teams going. I'd say low chance of this playing out at all with random or some sort of skill averaging drafted teams.
