There's gonna be like three teams.

Pointless.

Two stacked teams and the rest stumbling around
Easy solution to this. Do a draft. I remember the last successful one we did (Chrismas 2012 I think) had a lot of participation and everyone had a lot of fun.

Having one team full of the best players constantly beating the shit out of a group of bad players is no fun for anyone. I've been on both ends. It certainly isn't any fun to watch yourself respawning the whole game, but for the good team is also gets boring to just sit there and spawn kill all game. The last invent we played the final scores on 5v5 assault were 3-2, 1-1, 4-2, and 1-0. Killing wise the top 5 always had 2 people from one team and 3 from the other. Close games are always fun, shutouts get boring fast and make the shitty team leave, thus no Halo gets played. This is a video I made from that draft league and from invents in both HPT and PX vents during that time. Everyone had a lot of fun and most games were close.

Draft would make sense yeah. It'd also be a bit more interesting cuz teams won't be preset or something. Idk I have no issue with either idea. I just wanna play some halo. Think these past few weeks have been p good

Muzzle has a good point. A draft would generate more teams. With players like myself...who's team hasn't played since 2010-11 its hard to find people to play with.

There will also be those teams who would like 2 stick 2gether like iclan and noone.

But I doubt this tournament will happen anyway. gl

Although I agree as well with the draft idea, and that some clans may wish to only stick together, who ru again nigga?

draft thread + draft signup sheet

If 32 signups, top 8 players get picked as captains from the list, remaining 24 get pooled as drafteez

8 players pick their team ==> braqet generated => single-elim turnie => pcrs for sam to jerk off to in return for hopefuly some ben n jerry smoothie money

oh and ^^ is for 4v4. I think they're easier to setup/play and have more variety of options. u can easily play KOTH/TS/CTF/CBCTF whereas with 5v5 its pmuch limited to assault. rest is upto the ppl

idc for sam's moni tbh. He's gona force us all to play in 1 vent/teamspeak and on the day of the event its gonna start to get ddosd anddd then this whole idea will go down the shitter.

I will only agree to abide by sam's rule if he puts in $1000

also id love it for there to be a set rotation. IE: bo3 = KOTH CBCTF CTF, bo5 = CBCTF TS KOTH TS CTF?? :D

we need to play more koth tbh, that shit could be fun. or oddball, but with a timelimit of 15 or so, so the games don't last forever n every1s got 100bombs

The draft that I remember, we had like 4 teams of 10-11 people each. We did 2v2s through 6v6s, and people that were online at the time played. Putting only 4 people on a team and saying show up at this time to do the 4v4 is kind of unreasonable. People have school, work, life, etc. My world doesn't revolve around Halo, and I wouldn't mark my calender for a Halo match. I doubt many other people would either except for those who have absolutely no life. I'm in a group of 4 people for a class and we have a hard time finding a time to meet that works for all of us, I seriously doubt we can do it for 8 or 10 people on Halo.

"Hey boss, can I go home early tonight?" | "Why?" | "There is a match I have scheduled for Halo and I need to play in it."
See how well that goes.

blade you can post screenshots of you beating people like louie in 1v1s as much as you want (seriosly with your sound, set up, and stopwatch you shouldnt lose a 1v1) but it doesnt change the fact that he is 20x the player you are.

The organizers (grenade?) need to think about that and other aspects as well.

But that's right voo, you dont need ANYTHING from me.breathe nigga.

If would be nice if other people wanted to contribute to a prize, but I can give 100-200$ to
HPT in December, like i did this month. I think most people play for fun though.

Louie, do you ever get tired of being wrong? refer to sig.
Voice servers have been the epicenter of "competitive" halo since the beginning and still are today.
When you dos it, for no real reason, I hope you get the ego boost.

Where do you think the PCRs come from? You could probably play halo right now if you actually wanted to.
People still have an interest in hpc and if more HPTs could LEARN NOT TO ALIAS, cry, or be immature and so honor themselves and this amazing community,
it would be better than it is now!
But you don't really want that do you, Louie.
