Tourney Time!
 
After discussion with you the sacgamers, both on our forums, VE's forums and the Poll we have decided on the tentative details for our next tournament (New Improved).

The Tourney Will take place on Saturday the 23rd of June, at 10Pm GMT / 11Pm CET / 2Pm PST / 7am Australia.

I think you'll agree this is probably the best time we can affix for such a global event. http://www.veforums.com/smile.gif

The Tourney shall take place in 2vs2 form at a Min lvl 4 using straight gods.

Everything about this tourney is open so we welcome any comments and suggestions.
Make a date on your calender, this ones going to be great! http://www.veforums.com/smile.gif

Yes that is a very bad date. Not only is it the day after the diablo 2 x pak is realesed is exams for most Canadians. Also apparently alot of people are on vacation. http://www.veforums.com/frown.gif Could you please reconsider the date?

Ummm either way I don't think I'll make it no matter what. Do it before i have to study for exams do it after am on vacation ah well.

TheMad June 4th, 2001 07:20 PM

Yeah, this should be right after finals for me, so I could probably make it, though I might be a little out of practice because I'll be studying instead of playing for a couple weeks before the tests.

We'll discuss a different date, perhaps the 30th but the time and day of the week is unlikely to be changed.

Ohh and bumP?

I know this sounds like a pathetic cry for help, but I think several of us would like to play in the tournament but don't have a teammate. I'd like to play now, since it's a lvl 4 tourney, but asking people in the lobby isn't exactly what I have in mind. Could those of us that need partners reply to this thread stating such, so we could get in contact and start practicing together now?

illuminatus June 5th, 2001 04:51 PM

Bump!

Good Idea Muffy, I think I'll start a new thread for that now.

Diablo, the sign up will be ready a week or so before the actual tourney as we need to sort out a few details. http://www.veforums.com/smile.gif

JohnyFire June 5th, 2001 05:13 PM

Is it official that it will be straight gods or not? I pretty much need to know so i can make a nasty custom or keep useing my straight god.

Archon June 5th, 2001 05:32 PM

diablo your talking like a non newbie I LIKE IT! But i want to fear u before i stop making fun of your newbieness

Archangel-Frost June 6th, 2001 06:24 AM

So is the tourney still on 23rd or 30th, i would prefer the 30th because i wont be at home the 23rd. Plz tell me so i know it is worth signing up for it.

Diablo is not a newbie Archon if you mean "rate of skill at the game". He has beaten Goblet's raiding technique.

PennHead June 7th, 2001 09:09 AM

Alas, if the tourney is on the 23rd I cannot possibly attend. The 23rd is my 3rd wedding anniversary.

In a battle between wife and sac, wife wins every time. This shows a clear inbalance in the game. I have yet to witness sac ever defeating wife. Sure, it could be argued that the amount of micromanagement that wife requires offsets this strength, but I don't believe this to be true. Proof of inbalance can be seen in wife's anniversary spell, which renders all sac abilities useless for approximately 24 hours. The sheer power of this ability is somewhat offset by it's long reload of 1 year. However, an inbalance clearly exists that I hope Shiny will address in patch 4.

Or the tourney could just be pushed back to the 30th.

Please!

Mm-_- June 7th, 2001 12:56 PM

If the Toruney is past the 27'th I cannot attend. I will be gone for 2 months for VACATION. Oh thank the heavens http://www.veforums.com/biggrin.gif

TheMad June 7th, 2001 04:34 PM

23rd is OK with me, though a couple days later would be best for me because I'm going to spend a lot of time studying for finals, which are coming up soon.

EvAde June 7th, 2001 05:12 PM

does it have to be a saturday? from what i'm seeing, a lot of people are going to be on their summer (or winter in my case) breaks starting somewhere between the 23rd and the 30th or earlier. if most of the people who can't attend one or the other of these dates are going to be on their breaks in that week anyway, y not have the tourney on the wednesday or something like that?

(BTW, i like the 23rd and not the 30th :P ... we should do a tally of which date is more popular)

------------------
Anyhoo...

Archon June 7th, 2001 06:00 PM

your right Mm-_- i rated a persons skill on there post count. Anyways i dont know what to say! Anyways cool.

Its either a Saturday or a Sunday ... Simple as that.
We will probably move it to the 30th due to popular demand.
But week days are out of the question... for obvious reasons. http://www.veforums.com/smile.gif

EvAde June 7th, 2001 07:42 PM

o well, i'll have to prolly miss out on the 30th http://www.veforums.com/frown.gif
