Title: Time for a timetrial tournament!
Post by: DarkOne on May 22, 2010, 09:33 PM: Haven't hosted one of these in a while!
And I think it's time for another tournament :) So I'm going to host one next weekend; Saturday 29th of may 18:00 (or 6PM) GMT.
Use http://www.timezoneconverter.com/cgi-bin/tzc.tzc to see what time that is in your time zone.

The scheme will be timetrial but the format will be a little different.
The tournament will have preset maps for each round and there will be no pairings. Instead, everybody races at the same time and the best 50% will go to the next round.

Post by: DarkOne on May 23, 2010, 12:24 PM: I'll ask a couple of people to host games :)
Would also be nice to have the replays all somewhere uploaded too.

You should be familiar with the idea as a RRkit veteran, Crazy! I've used it a couple of times in RRkit tourneys already and it all happened without a hitch :)
