April/May/June 2010 2v2 Demigod Community Tournament - Results Thread

from Demigod Forums

This thread has been created for the purpose of tracking results in the April/May 2010 2v2 Demigod Community Tournament. 

Current status:  WINNER! - King_Of_Thorns + Zen_God

Round 1a began at 5PM on 4/21/2010 and ended at 11:59PM EST on 4/30/2010. 

Round 1b began at Midnight on 5/1/2010 and ended at 11:59PM EST on 5/7/2010.

Round 2 began at Midnight on 5/8/2010 and ended at 11:59PM EST on 5/23/2010.

Round 3 (SEMIFINALS) began at Midnight on 5/24/2010 and will end at 11:59PM EST on 5/30/2010.

Round 4 (FINALS) began Midnight on 5/31/2010 and will end at 11:59PM EST on 6/5/2010

Players responsible for hosting and scheduling their own matches.  Then, the winning team must provide a replay and a link to the pantheon stats here for tracking purposes, for every game played.  Please feel free to use this thread get your matches scheduled.

There will be a need to disqualify teams that aren't making the required effort to get their games in without penalizing another team that's doing whatever they can to get a match scheduled.  It's probably best if teams that are trying to organize matches go on record in the forums.  For instance, if I was playing against say AtMa and Ba, I'd post something like the following in this thread:

Atma + Ba:  trouser and pacov are generally available M-F from 5pm EST - 1AM EST.  Please let us know if some time in that slot would work for you or recommend a time slot that works.  I'll PM you in a few days if I haven't heard from you or we can discuss this on lagwars vent. 

Something like that.  If it comes down to disqualifying teams because they didn't get their match in, the more info and tracking you have indicating that you did your best to get the match scheduled the better.

Here is the FINAL bracket  - UPDATED 6/5/2010

Tournament Rules:

  • You may only select characters as indicated in the grid below:

  • Each match in the tournament will be the best 2 out of 3 games
  • All matches will be played on cataract with default settings (the only exceptions being AI HP on Very High and AI Gold/XP on low)
  • After teams are formed, they will be randomly placed into a bracket to determine who will fight who.  Everything will be random initially in round 1.  In the following rounds, the winners from one game will play the winners from another based on location in the bracket starting from the top on to the bottom.
  • Each team will play 1 round on light side, then 1 round on dark side.  If there is a 3rd round, the team that had the fastest win in game 1 or 2 gets to pick the side they want to be on (keep in mind the following rule).  
  • The team that is on the dark side must pick their characters and ready up first.  Then the light gets to pick and the dark side does not have a chance to adjust their characters. 
  • To track your wins, you must do the following - post the replay at gamereplays.org.  If you have issues with gamereplays, upload the file to rapid share and provide us with a link.  Also, provide a link to the match in the pantheon and let me know if its a win or loss.  The winning team should do this for each and every match.
  • UberFix 1.02 must be used (http://forums.demigodthegame.com/374315).  UberFix is a mod that fixes many of the bugs in Demigod.  Check the modding forum for everything that is fixed by UberFix 1.02. 

How will we handle crashes:

If there is a game crash, the players involved in that match should see if they can come to a consensus on the probable outcome of the match.  If there is no clear winner, the 2 teams should replay the match using the exact same demigods and sides (light/dark).  If there was a clear winner at that point in the game, then that team should be awarded the win.  If the 2 teams disagree on the outcome, a third party will review the replay of the match and render a decision.  Be aware that the 3rd party must agree that a specific team was going to win or the results will be thrown out and the match redone.

How we will handle invalid game states:

The lastgamereplay file is still created in the event of an invalid game state, so it is still possible to review the results of a match.  In the event of an invalid game state, players should attempt to resolve the issue exactly the same way as game crashes.  If you believe foul play occurred, submit the replay along with any screen shots, etc, as evidence and we will review.  If there is a CLEAR consensus that a team is willingly triggering invalid game states, that team should be disqualified after a thorough review of the facts. Please be reasonable, though.  We all know that Demigod has its bugs and its still pretty easy to encounter an invalid game state even if no one has intentionally triggered it.  If your game does crash, it might be advisable to take a screen shot of the crash as proof.  Be aware that we know invalid game states can occur without any sort of foul play, so please be mindful when submitting requests for review. 

Prizes:

Outside of prestige in our small community, there is also a cash prize thanks to community contributions.  The total (and probably final) amount paid for this tournament is $200.  If you would like to contribute to the pot, please pm me and I'll get you the needed info to send me a payment.  If individuals do not come through on their pledges, I will not be personally covering the difference.  My goal is to collect the pledged amount before the tournament starts and I will be providing updates as I receive the pledged money.

Please thank our contributors and consider contributing to the prize yourself.

Ok lets say this is offical then. Due to scheduling (lack of), me and passfail are disqualifying ourselves. Good luck to you guys in the tourny. Anxious to see the outcome and was really hoping to keep playing. We should def try to match up outside tourny for fun though.
End of quote

Ok guys.  I appreciate you guys clearing that up and sorry that things didn't work out.  I'll update the bracket. 

@Jona - so, you guys got your tourney games in?  If so, thanks?  Replays are required.  Would someone from those games please post them and link to them here?  Thanks!

edit - nevermind - i see mcshane put the replays up.  Thanks!

Orcun, Shane: We'll need to meet up. I know all three of us tend to play rather late PM (I prefer playing starting around 11 or midnight). Thunder is the only one here with poor and unreliable internet so I think we'll have to schedule around him. 

I don't think he'll be at his home apartment until Saturday, or so, however. I'll bug him to post here with some more clarifications...

OK. I am planing on a short vacation next Monday. It is not set yet but if i go i won't be here for 5 days, so would be good if we can get our game before Monday.Other than that i am pretty flexible.

We really should have practiced a lot more. I think me and Jona only did 2-3 games of 2v2. This game was just ugly. Other than that you two were great.

@ atma and ba

I'm available from 6 to 10 pm every week day except tuesday and i'm pretty much available anytime on week-ends and i can easily contact renz through xfire so just jump on vent at 1 of these times and we can get our games going

Reply #410 from Demigod Forums Top

^^ should be good match.  I want to commentate / watch.  If that's okay with the teams, hopefully the matches are good and I'll post the vent recording.

Reply #411 from Demigod Forums Top

rawrrrr - there's a chance I won't be able to make thurday night due to another early morning install I have going on tomorrow.  I'll check in with one of you on vent or here if it doesn't look like I can make it.  Odds are I should be a-ok though.  Worst case, I should be able to play friday. 

Reply #413 from Demigod Forums Top

So uh, Janook and Mangus, what time tomorrow do you guys want to play, I would prefer playing later in the evening for that is the time Zen god is usually on. You guys better not put this deadlining extend crap, I don't know if I can take anymore deadline extensions.

Reply #414 from Demigod Forums Top

I'll schedule a time whenever I damn well feel like it. 

It's unlikely to be this weekend, I'm extremely busy, sleep deprived and out of practice.

Reply #415 from Demigod Forums Top

hey RAWRRRR - I'm out for tonight.  Sorry for the short notice.  I can make tomorrow night if you guys are free.  If that doesn't work for you, let me know what would be a good alternative time. Thanks!

Reply #416 from Demigod Forums Top

hey no problem.. I'm actually out tonight too.. and more than likely tomorrow.  My computer literally died on me :(  Was about to post on the forums.. and my computer turned off.. wouldn't turn back on.  Got a new power supply.. that wasn't the issue.. so I think I need a new motherboard.  So... getting it looked at.. won't be able to be back on until it gets fixed.  HOPEFULLY tomorrow.. Otherwise... I probably need an extension until Monday.  Shittyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy.  Anyway.. next time I get internet access I'll keep you updated.  On a neighbor's comp atm

I'm ok with the extension if you need it too.  Hopefully you can solve your problems without too much trouble!

Reply #418 from Demigod Forums Top

That sucks Rawrrr, My computer kept giving me a black image on my monitor before the tourney sign up process began. It was the graphics cards initial problem but after I got it replaced, it still kept giving me a black screen. Turns out, all my individual pieces were working just fine, it was just that my Asus motherboard was a damn asshole with all it's fussy assholing. I had to dish out £100 for a new motherboard (Glorious Gigabyte) and now everything works smoothly. By the time I had made the deadline for the tourney, Renz had teamed up in mith and that is why I'm now with glorious Zen_God.

Moral of the story - Never buy ASUS motherboards.

Attention Hedgie-Orcun-Orcun's Partner-Pacov

It was a Festivus Miracle that I didn't lag spike or disconnect during our two games with Exile and Shred... in fact the only reason I even attempted to try was our game was almost overdue when they advanced and were ready to play us.

If I play at work its extremely distracting, I can't use vent, and of course theres a chance I might actually have to do some work in the middle of a game.  If I play at my GFs house, I have to use her landlady's wireless which is lagged out more often than not and seems to disconnect more often than my work connection.

So, to make a short story long, I don't see us playing before Orcun goes on his mini vacation.  I'm available to set up a time to drive for internet just like in that South Park episode between the 19th and the 24th if we can get an extension for our game.  What do you guys think?

Reply #420 from Demigod Forums Top

So I talked to Thunder and told him to post here... but alas he hasn't (probably been super busy ;;).

Anyway, he went back to work on Wednesday for his fireman schedule and has been doing that for the last few days. Then he is driving 3 hours on Saturday to get a puppy! <3 Then Sunday... he probably enjoying the benefits of purchasing said puppy :P 

All-in-all I think he said he wasn't going to be available until Tuesday (the difficulties of being a fireman-gamer, I s'pose) which puts him in conflict with Orcun.

I'd really like to play this game, however, so maybe we can try to get it in on Friday or something with his crappy and unreliable Work Internet, though if it is going to be crappy and unreliable on Friday after we try we'll have to push it back after Orcun's game.

mmmm....., didn't he... just post.... 15 seconds before u? o_O

On a side note, wtf does your new name "Siili" mean Hedgie? Is it just "silly"? :|

Reply #422 from Demigod Forums Top

well. I didn't refresh the page 15 seconds before I posted so I didn't see it :P 

Siili - See - lee - means Hedgehog in Finnish.

^Actually nomi, hedgie is lying.

Siili means Sealy, as in a Sealy mattress. Listening to his voice is like sleeping on a Sealy mattress. :zzz:

Reply #424 from Demigod Forums Top

Well i got time tomorrow and on Sunday if you guys can make it. I am still not sure if vacation is going to happen but if it does happen and if we can't get to play tomorrow or this weekend, i'd gladly play after the vacation. But then i suppose we'll need an extension from pacov. So basically i am flexible time wise apart from possible vacation days. I understand Thunder is busiest of all of us, so i think we can play when it's convenient for him.

I can't play Saturday, but am good for pretty much any other time.  Well late Saturday probably, but not during the day.
