Camelot Team17 cup

@Lancelot,
This is your cup and as the cup moderator, you can specify any rules you want. That being said, it's a good practice to take the recent game changes into account. With the newest update of the game, there is absolutely no reason to have rules such as "no rope knocking". Furthermore, regarding SIBASA and deadcode, I see a conflict. SIBASA said he was not happy with deadcode's scheme but plays anyway. So I see 2 outcomes:

1. SIBASA wins, the games stand. (except you as the cup moderator check every replay file and void the games regardless of the outcome)
2. SIBASA loses, he can complaint and the games will be void.

Either way it's in SIBASA's favor.  SIBASA's right move should have been to avoid playing and complain and he would get the free win because deadcode refused to play the official cup scheme.


@deadcode,
The default rules are to play with the cup scheme, unless the moderator says in the cup comments how much he/she is flexible about picking the scheme. Maybe a moderator wants to experiment with a custom scheme and he/she can't have players play with their own. You know you can start your own cup right? There are no restrictions:
User panel => Cups => Start a new cup

Thank you for intervening in our dispute.

I canceled both games in Group 1 vs deadcode because they were not played in a cup scheme

When you guys reach the Playoffs, i'd like to stream the finals!

SD weapons drop more balanced here than in the new league scheme.

The old league scheme had a low chance of SD weapons, which often resulted in draws because it's easy to darkside on a dual layer cavern map. The chance of each SD weapon was increased from 1.2% to 3.6% in the current league scheme. The WL scheme went further and increased the round time by 2 minutes so it's a bit harder to darkside.

The scheme currently being played in the league is more balanced in terms of low power weapons and a lot of trash in crates. It is considered an incredible success to pull the SD weapon out of the box. I will add another possibly unstable drop of SD weapons - three or four in a row. This fact does not fit with the balance, right? Plus, I will also say that the share of luck in the scheme plays a greater role than in the cup scheme. When one collects good boxes, the other collects trash, and this plays a decisive role. But then it turns out that the garbage weapon needs to be changed in terms of strength.

I don't agree. You don't have to go to war with bad weapons, that's what the girders and teleports are for. You can delay fighting until you get better weapons or until those "bad" weapons become useful. Of course, if a player knows just one playstyle and can't adapt to different situations, he is in trouble. Equal crate percentages make it more interesting imo because you need to choose the right strategy according to the weapons instead of playing the same way every game. Bigger weapon pool also favors players who are creative and have good weapon knowledge.

Deadcode's games are void, but scheme 223 is allowed?

give you 48 days for the group stage

In this dialogue, I will finish, and then I go to drink tablets

I don't see the cup being played. Should I ask it to close it again?

playoffs paired, hf

I've been going through every Cup that is still active and finishing them by progressing those who were last active.

There hasn't been any activity in this cup for over a month now, though I see there is still an active deadline, i've progressed Senator as they had reported a game which had not been progressed yet.

If there is no activity, as in any visible effort by anyone by the end of the current deadline, since Lancelot seems active he can progress and play Senator, as i'm aware they are still active, the winner will receive Gold and the loser will receive Bronze then the Cup can be finished.

I will personally PM all the players in the cup and inform them the Cup is still active and the current situation.

I see no point in continuing the cup and after the deadline I will submit a request to close the cup.

Run and SIBASA just played their match, this is promising, you are active yourself, I saw Mega`Adnan on the ONL Discord yesterday i'll message him on Discord as well.

That just leaves VoK and FoxHound and they have both been active in the past few days.

You guys got this!

I have reported the game with senator

Feels a bit weird to have only played 2 matches to finish the cup though! lol
