As we played an awesome maps war yesterday again (msm vs cc) I got to the idea that we really need to encourage more of that...hence this concept.

Basics:
A league consisting of 6 teams/clans (for the 1st season)
Friendly league, invites only (will filter out trolls, lamers, finnswe border hackers)
Inf CO goldmaps (mp_shop banned, harder maps like hos2* will come 2nd season if we get that far, main point is to ENCOURAGE people to play maps not to scare them away by 30-0 slaps on hos).

Clans with guaranteed spots in the league will be FWII top 3: c4, cC, eN.
Other 3 will be picked out of the teams who apply (will need to provide the full roster as you apply, so we can make biased choices whilst taking activity etc into consideration).
The season would start with all 6 playing each other and culminate in play-offs to which the 4 with most points advance (A1 vs A4, A2 vs A3).

Main hosts would be me + some of the demobase staff and volunteers who I would consider worthy for the job.

My intention would be to make a league that wouldn't be EXTREMELY competitive, rather being something fun that all can enjoy. We have to face the fact we're a small community so there's no point in fighting among each other. This idea should also encourage people to play their "group phase" matches as the point is to get more experience in INF CO on maps rather than just whoring to win. So it would resemble a friendly environment of 6 clans (for the first season at least) who would all want the same thing: to have fun and play more INF CO on maps.

Also the teams that apply don't have to be existing demo clans, this is a separate league from our demo mp_shop scene. It would also be cool to have like a team from gold/full map players (who are adjusted to INF CO + nades + friendlyfire) and a polak team msm/Ks.
FW2 just showed that c4, cC and eN have the cannon power to play maps and also the motivation, I also expect to see it from other teams/clans (whatever you choose to form).

Ideas/comments/feedback is appreciated.

Hos1 is indeed DM map, but hos2 is nice.

I like the idea, thought it's gonna be hard to keep it active. But for me, as member of eN, Ill do my best!
About time someone is trying to arrange a cup/league for demo, since it's quite boring without a cup.

If it's working great, we can expand this with CTF

Haha, yeah meant hos2.

So would we get 3 more teams/clans to take part? Like I said they don't have to be existing demo teams clans, although as far as I know c4, cC and eN are clans that could pull 5 on maps.
I know |she| has players who have maps installed but they never just want to play them. Also there's always the polaks!
I know Proskiller had the idea of an inf co cup also but then he disappeared somewhere.

What say you guise? All that's needed for this to work is participation.

faker?

Probably Niclas' 4th account or something.


Anyhow... Can I getz more teams?
Should probably contact she and polaks through msn, they don't seem to be that active on forums :/

[ETHANOL.]

i'll ask SiK guys

[evant]

can zD get an invite ?

[dvz]

A*s might participate but im not sure about our stability n motivation in demo to show up for every match

[Fastlain]

can zD get an invite ?

if so i join zD for the cup ok!

[HowLinMaD]

can zD get an invite ?

If you can provide a line-up (of unbanned players) and I see some potential that you'll actually play your maps CO cup matches then sure.

-e-
Don't take this as some personal hate against zD or whatnot but I just listed the 3 clans who were top3 in FW2 (the last inf maps cup) and who I believe can get 5 in maps INF co.
Other invites will be sent out only when some clan or team (previously existing or created for this season, doesn't matter) provides their roster and I see the potential there (potential as in potential to get their matches played not as my biased opinion on their skill level).

A*s might participate but im not sure about our stability n motivation in demo to show up for every match

Would be great!
