Quake III Arena classics winter 2021 tournament

[adminless]

unlikely, though I'll see if I can do something. sorry.

[fau]

Saturday 19:30 CET is fine. My maps: hub3aeroq3, pukka3tourney2

[adminless]

ok, great news, thanks for get back to us. cool then we can close that fight, as jutuli picked pro-q3tourney7 that had came out as tie-breaker I pulled another one now as replacement and q3tourney3 came out this time, I don't know if you both prefer to agree on another one instead? just let me know, in my opinion q3tourney3 should be just fine as tie-breaker. so if nothing else changes then the other semi-final of this fpsclasico Winter 2021 mini-tournament between players fau and jutuli will take place this Saturday 9 of January of 2021 at 19:30 CET and it will be disputed on hub3aeroq3, hub3tourney1, pro-q3tourney7, pukka3tourney2 and q3tourney3. ok, I'll PM you here on the forum the match details later today.

that's good then we are all set for the semi-finals, all that is left from this cup are the finals that, unless something else change, will be held on Sunday 10 of January of 2021 at 18:00 CET and 19:00 CET (thrid place final and grand final respectively). just as a reminder remember that the loser of this semi-final (fau or jutuli) will be the player "A" of the third place final against semisek (Sunday 10 18:00 CET) and the winner will be the player "B" of the grand final against aimer (Sunday 10 19:00 CET). for this reason I will ask you (all) to please stay tune the Saturday 9 night to close the finals details after the semi-final. initially for other than fau (that picked the very same maps as aimer) I don't see any other overlap among your maps choices so far then in case of lack of communication/agreement the maps will be called, hubaeroq3/pukka3tourney2 for aimer, hub3tourney1/pro-q3tourney7 for jutuli, ztn3tourney1/pro-q3tourney4 for semisek and hub3aeroq3/pukka3tourney2 for fau if he doesn't make it to the grand final (if he does, he will have to name other ones or I'll pick what I see fit). anyways, just saying, remember that until the Saturday 9 nigh (Sunday 10 00:00 CET) you have time to pick/change any maps you wanna play on the finals, that's only in case of lack of communication/agreement.

[fau]

Ok, so if I get to the final and need to choose different maps - I choose dm6 and ztn

[...jutuli...]

I am ok with any map.

[adminless]

ok, perfect then it's done, I just PM'ed you now here on the forum the fight details, any problem/question or anything let me know. otherwise see you in-game the Saturday 19:30 CET, good luck to both and have fun.

[PacMan]

I am ok with any map.

Fau coming to get you ,

Just kidding I just like his play , and your just to hardcore

[aimer]

alright so i'll also choose hub and pukka for the final too then

[adminless]

ok, no problem until the Saturday night you (all) have time to change if you want, if not then probably the options I see so far are:

• fau winner
  • third place final (jutuli vs semisek): hub3tourney1, ztn3tourney1, pro-q3tourney4, pro-q3tourney7, bloodcovenant
  • grand final (aimer vs fau): hub3aeroq3, pro-q3dm6, ztn3tourney1, pukka3tourney2, hektik_b3 (<- came out as random now instead of ztn due collision)
• jutuli winner
  • thrid place final (fau vs semisek): hub3aeroq3, ztn3tourney1, pro-q3tourney4, pukka3tourney2, bloodcovenant
  • grand final (aimer vs jutuli): hub3aeroq3, hub3tourney1, pro-q3tourney7, pukka3tourney2, ztn3tourney1

if nothing changes the dates will remain the same either way, that's it, Sunday 10 at 18:00 CET third place final and then afterwards, 19:00 CET, the grand final. anyways I repeat, this is just for orientation so far, will be confirmed on Saturday night after the semi-final. until then you have time to make any adjustment you see fit on this so just let me know.

[PacMan]

Out of curiosity if someone doesn't turn up they forfit and player who turned up auto wins?

[Semisek48]

Sorry Admineless, my English is limited so i need to ask you (or someone who knows) for clarification one importnat detail... the maps you wrote for example for case Fau will be winner (that means me and Jutuli: hub3tourney1, Ztn3tourney1, pro-q3tourney4, pukka3tourney2, bloodcovenant) are forbidden maps, recomended maps, or almost final pick?
I ask becouse i thought we can not choose the same maps twice, but it would be better for me if we can.

[adminless]

@pacman no showing/rage quit and similar after have agreed to a match obviously lead to disqualification and the match being given by a 3:0 (or 0:3) score to the other player. furthermore, "flagrant" violations (i.e. you didn't show for no reason plus no communication and/or lack of "respect") leads to competition (not public gaming, i.e. UnFreeZe) ban (i.e. you won't be eligible to participate on any more tournaments) for a on-case disclosed period of time (can be either from a year to permanently). additionally well proven cheating here will lead to in-game ban everywhere (same as if you would have cheated on any of the pubs here).

@semisek no needs to apologize, English isn't my first language either so likely many of the things I write could be worded better plus many times I write way too much. ok, I'll try to write simple this time. recommended maps, I mean, that's what will be final picks by Saturday night unless you communicate that you want to chose another ones before such deadline. you can change those picks (in any of both cases) anytime you want before the Saturday night deadline. every fight must be played all on different maps (itself) but obviously there can be map repetitions among different fights. to put it on the example you named, as of right now, you can chose any map from the pool besides hub3tourney1 and pro-q3tourney7 (btw I just noticed that you copied/pasted the wrong one) because jutuli have already picked those regardless of what you have picked on your previous fight. in other words, one can specialize in two maps that he can name his "home" maps and pick them on every single fight (this was the case with miro btw, the "hubs"). as long as you keep being the player "A" of the fight your picks will have preference so you won't have to change them. of course, at the same time is also convinient to adapt your choices to your opponent (ex. if you're going against a freak railer don't pick a rail dominant map even if that's your "home" map) hence why it's always asked on a match basis. ok, let me know if I cleared the confusion this time and of course if you prefer to chose another maps instead of the named there that suits better your needs for any of those fights.

[Semisek48]

Thank you, now it is clear to me. Ztn and tourney4 is what i want to play again, so for me all is good, and I will be looking forward to Sunday games.
(no pukka3tourney2 but q3tourney7 = my mistake, now i can see it.

[adminless]

ok, perfect then we're all set. yes, I just write that as orientation as I said, to help people figure out his fight plan so we don't get into last minute issues/stress/discomfort later. I don't think that there will much changes from that, probably all that is left is just wait for the other semi-final to unfold basically. anyways, don't worry that by this Saturday night you'll have in your inbox on this forum the definitive details for your third place final so there will be no place for confusion.

ok, so here we are with the results of the other semi-final of this Quake III Arena classics winter 2021 tournament. finally on his debut at fpsclasico competition player fau displayed a strong play on a almost flawless victory over veteran player jutuli that unfortunately couldn't find his chances to significantly press him. this performance here definitively positions fau as a strong contender for the final cup tittle against current and defending champion aimer. on the other hand jutuli, as well as semisek, will still have its fair chances to redeem themselves on the upcoming third place final. but so far let's drop the official match scores:

cool, then we're all set for the tomorrow finals, this leads to the fau winner scenery posted before about the potential pairings. that's it, third place final jutuli vs semisek (hub3tourney1, ztn3tourney1, pro-q3tourney4, pro-q3tourney7, bloodcovenant) at 18:00 CET and then the grand final aimer vs fau (hub3aeroq3, pro-q3dm6, ztn3tourney1, pukka3tourney2, hektik_b3) afterwards 19:00 CET. then, sorry for the rush, unfortunately the dates turned like this (it wasn't possible to organize this semi-final the past week), but please confirm those fights, or make any adjustments you see fit to them of course, within what's left of this Saturday as unless someone states otherwise those will be the final official fights for tomorrow by the end of the day. once done, I'll confirm you by PM every fight as usual. ok, that's it for today, thank you to everybody for participate and developing the competition without any incidents.
