Attack Tournament (Official)

[LF]

Here is the official announcement for the upcoming tournament in ?go ATTACK

When: Draft Day will be Sunday, November 27th at 5PM EST. The draft will be followed by a few meaningless (Call them preseason) pickup games to get to know your team. The first meaningful games will be played on Sunday, December 4th starting at 3PM EST and the final games will be played on Sunday, December 18th.

Each team will play 2 games every Sunday, thus 6 games overall. The winners will be decided first by win:loss record, with tiebreakers being decided by goal +\- ratio.

Draft Note: To prevent the draft from becoming another form of torture like TWDT, we will be speeding up the process by assigning every player to a "package". Each package will contain 5 players and there will only be 5 rounds of picking (Yes, 25 people per team). This should move the process along rather quickly. Captains will be chosen the day of the tournament based on who shows. So if you think you might be chosen, make sure you have a team name ready! (Immediately following this post will be a list of every player signed up for the tournament. It will be edited into packages as the week progresses)

Gameplay: Each team will have a 25 man roster which should give everyone plenty of roster space to field a 10 vs 10 each week.
Each team must have 7 players to field a legal lineup
Each team MUST field 2 Terriers, 2 sharks and 1 special ship (Warbird, Javelin, Lancaster) at all times
Every game will be a 25 minute TIMED match with a 5 goal mercy rule in effect (Final day will be 30 minutes with no mercy rule)

[LF]

Just to keep everybody in the loop, the draft for this will be postponed until next Sunday December 4th. Thanksgiving really messed me up and a lot of things were incomplete/not ready to go today, and that's my fault. I assure you all thought that we will be more than prepared next weekend, so make sure you are prepared to play some meaningful games!

Draft is Complete! Each and every single person should now be on a messagebot channel where your captain will be able to contact you in regards to upcoming tournament games, so pay attention to your messages! If you have any questions or want to be added to a team late, contact me or diakka in game.

[PapaRaazi]

Team 1 wins, gg, lets start the next season with new teams

[Jason]

this draft was poorly run if diakka, wing and lf all managed to end up on the same team. those three are basically the founding fathers of attack. (minus flared, didn't wanna forget you bro!)

[vaped]

Awwwww ..... I missed all of this!!!

Oh well -- Can't make it to any of the game times anyway. The NFL has my soul during those hours.

Good luck to all!

[Jerome Scuggs]

agreed jason, but there's a huge factor which is that maybe 15 people on all teams have played more than one game of attack. i consider myself a more frequent attack player (iirc undefeated as well but 98% of the time I luck out and get added to diakka's team) but even then ive played it max 10 times and probably 6-7 realistically. alot of these players who are "newbs" I see in pub and I've definitely seen the same statement a few times which goes like "i don't know what attack is but I read the ad and signed up".

when I look at it I see each team has at least three people who not only know what to do but are also good, but team 1 definitely has a very clear advantage before the tournament with the wz/diakka and lf factors. speaking for my team at least, I know we'll be able to hold our own!

btw does anyone want to start a thread on attack tactics? the biggest one for me is that recently ive seen teams deploy both terrs offensively as opposed to 1 attack 1 home. while in theory that should be justified/fair because you leave your own goal exposed, in reality there's nothing to really defend and based on pure numbers the double-terr attack will give a team more points, quicker than a 1attack/1d team could. so obvious answer is both teams using double terr attack and at that point it's just monkeys flinging poo at eachother and in the mayhem the laggiest team always won. in my mind attack is more strategic and tactical than that.

[Jerome Scuggs]

Ps. mikkiz is laggiest attack terr and the guy still loses eat my taint

this draft was poorly run if diakka, wing and lf all managed to end up on the same team. those three are basically the founding fathers of attack. (minus flared, didn't wanna forget you bro!)

As much as I love taking flared's credit and stealing his lines, I had absolutely nothing to do with the "founding" of attack lol. I'm just the guy in charge of putting it all together.

In regards to the fairness of the draft, I'm not sure what I could have done differently to make it more fair.

1) I put all 3 of us in different groups nowhere near each other and surrounded by people I've never even seen play the game

2) I made wiibimbo a captain, thus guaranteeing he would not pick me, yet he picked me with his first pick (5th pick overall, while diakka was 10th pick and wz was 15th pick)

So I do agree that team #1 is going to smang of all you irl so ez, it's not the fault of the organizers we all got on the same team, but that of the captains for not picking us sooner! The draft order was entirely fair and everyone had a fair chance to pick any one of us at any time. Bottom line is, it's Dezmond's fault.

Please let people know about the doors on each base and their purpose. Newer players do not know it exists. Kind of like keeping it like a help counter that pops up or something, along with other helpful tips.

Maybe shouldn't be in this tread, but something to see.
