Here's a "Vote for next cup" poll. Let this thread be for archive.
After quite some thought, I decided to propose the "beat crap out of each other without shooting bullets" cup.

In short:
A single (or maybe double) elimination tournament. No crits, no unlockables. Fought 1 vs 1, same class, 9 rounds (1 for each class), first one to 5 wins... wins.

And another thing one should be aware of:
Class - Min. hits to kill (highest dmg possible) - Max hits to kill (all lowest posible dmg) (data stolen from tf2 wiki)
Scout - 3 - 5
Soldier - 3 - 5
Pyro - 3 - 5
Demoman - 3 - 5
Heavy - 4 - 7
Engineer - 2 - 3
Medic - 2 - 4
Sniper - 2 - 3
Spy - 3 - 5

That's the idea in general. If needed, I am willing to make a staging map (not like a ring, more like a VALLEY OF DEATH). Also, I am also willing (if the idea passes) to donate prizes - in cash which is to be molded in spapoints for first 3.

I also like the idea of it being one class only, especially heavy or scout (though the first one might just give me some upper fist) with 9 rounds of beating each other to death.



Edit: Bolded stuff is edited.

I must admit.

I don't like this idea.

so, 9 rounds.. that would need 512 participants o:
also, I think for melee.. crits should be turned off ^^"

I think he means 9 rounds per match, so a 5:4 would be possible.

What

9 rounds of 1 vs 1. Each pair fights 9 times (or at least 5 times).

Also to think of it... No crits would be better, yeah. Otherwise like half the rounds would end in half a second.

Thats pretty much what I said, isnt it?
And crits in meelee just S U C K

I rest my thread.


Also, you should move the suggestions thread to the main cup forum, it's kind of silly to have in in 1vs1 soldier cup subforum (which would be why I didn't notice it at first - since I simply hate playing soldier)

you shoudl just have a tf2 race

how people move and what route they take would be quite a challenge, not to mention getin in each others way

I'd Vote Demoman

You should continue to make the map anyway and perhaps it could even be used in the SpA cup. And a TF2 race sounds abit boring unless you have like logs with gaps or something to make it more challenging.

could set up random sentry guns lol

Blame the guy who re-arranged the forum.

CURSE YOU, the guy who re-arranged the forum.!

Also I haven't started actually making map yet, but I promise to... attempt to make progress.

Maybe a map with loads of trains... that would be hilarious

I like the idea of a double elimination cup, but I'm not sure (most likely not) that the cup site can handle this ^^
I vote for this cup though, it's a good and fun community idea~

That's also one thing I had in mind.

You couldn't spin a minigun up without being dead the next second - kinda like in Frankfurt. Oh wait, that would be an airport.


But nah, I'm working(ish) on an alpine style mirror map that could potentially work as an arena map. But I don't want to really promise anything because most of my old projects were trashed.

melee cup would be boring =|

No mellee rules!!!
