wazaari · Post by **wazaari** » Fri Dec 22, 2006 10:59 pm

Hi ts players. i was thinking that would be nice to start a Team Competiton.
What i am now asking you is this:

1) Would you like to have a Team Competiton?
2) How would you like it to be?? (rules, etc)
3) Should it be open just for real ts teams or for everyone??
4) Would you be interested in helping me on this project??

Hope lots of you will coment it

Regards,
Waz

It would be nice to race against other teams. We have some experiences from that, haven't we

2) How would you like it to be?? (rules, etc)

IMO there isn't so many options about the game mode:
a) ghost
b) non-ghost with gentlemen's rules (like last time... *ehm*)
c) non-ghost with beefing

Ghost would give the least arguing about race behaviour but ghost isn't fun. I wouldn't include fuel/damage option to the list because we have seen what it's like in the JJTs. So either non-ghost with gg and some arguing or rough racing. I might have overlooked some options though.

Last time we had, what, 3 drivers? per team on the track and on those tracks with non-ghost it was a bit tight and rough. 2vs2 or 3vs3 would be good for typical TS tracks with some semi-serious racing. Bigger teams could make A and B teams

3) Should it be open just for real ts teams or for everyone??

I would limit the cup for real teams. What's the point otherwise? There are so many excellent drivers without teams so they could make one superb team and after the cup split up. No point in that. Also it should be denied to recruit new drivers to the team just before the cup to enhance the team. It would be like: "We get MK/T/J/M and beef u all"

4) Would you be interested in helping me on this project??

You? Me?. Well, in other things than hosting, maybe. Next year is a bit unknown yet, so we will see.

1) yes
2) ghost, all cars (random, or something like that..)
3) only for real teams, no fake teams allowed. Who cares if we are only few teams?
4) I suggest to organize a competition like this: establish when the competition will start (let's suppose February 2007), allow only teams who existed 1 month before the competition (players must play with team tag for 1 month at least). I'm in as hoster too, if needed, and for some organization (from February).

I would love to have a team comp.

1 - Yes! could be nice

2 - I think there should be different types of racing. Not just a ghost cup, or a single EZ cup... but rather multiple cups (something like the Triathalon cup).

Perhaps once each team has entered (when sign ups are done) each team can pick a setup (tracks and car). A Mini cup for each team (very short cups of course).

IMO this is the most fair.

3 - Only real teams of course.

4 - Perhaps i can lend a hand

I think it is important to have a cup for each team, then each team is happy. If it is just a single ghost race / cup, then i think some teams will be turned off right away.

Nice idea, Waza

1) Of course.
2) The rules in TL vs Ippon match were pretty good.

My suggestion:

- League, where all teams face each other twice, home and away match (this is mainly because of the lag issue, which will be present anyway). Home team can decide the server, tracks and cars. Two cars to be chosen and random. Tracks and cars should be announced week before or at start when we make timetable.

- Non-ghost, starting order 4 (best lap), 12 tracks and 5 laps per cup, 3 drivers per team and one substitution (in case one can't participate because of lag or dozens of other reasons).

- Points: 7,5,4,3,2,1 best lap:0 (it defines the starting order allready). Points for each player will be counted together as team points. The team with more points, wins.

- When starting server, first lag test and then substitution can be made. After cup starts, no substitutions. If someone disconnects/leaves, he can be waited for a while in name of good sportsmanship, but if he doesn't come back, then that team will continue with 2 players.

- Leaguetable: 2 points for win, 1 for draw, cup points made-cup points against, if two teams have same points at end, then the "goal-difference" will decide. If still even, then the one with more "goals" wins.

- Other: Only european teams/servers, because i don't think we can handle the lag over continents.

3) Just real teams, and as stated, team must have been existed at least a month before AND the members of team have been in that team at least month before.

4) I did allready something by posting this

Well, no, Ippon vs TL completely sucked. It was rough race, wasn't it? You just can't be fair in normal race. I think ghost is the best.

Another good thing could be the possibility to let many players play (e.g. for "big teams" like TL and Ippon.. maybe the possibility to join with multiple teams, kind of

). It's more fun for everyone.

Poi ne parliamo su msn, waza.

As I suggested. Just depends of the game mode and drivers on the track. Puna made some nice suggestions about points and such.

well maybe we can have teams like TL, Ippon, and Swoot, and then people who arent on teams can just have a team tag of their choice for the period of time the comp. goes!
What do you think?

Not really. Those player won't take part to the competition, that's for sure. No fake teams.

Don't forget [URL], and if scorpio does go to it I have to have one more team member.

Ok dede, but when will this be, what tracks, and qualification?

We wont forget you inferno!

Team cup would be good, but not only with existing actual teams. Would be good if players like sign up and teams are formed randomly. Everybody gets 1 partner or so. That's imo of course..

Yeah I understand what you mean, but what I'm trying to imply here is that restricting this cup for actual teams only will leave out a lot of good players [and this doesn't mean I'm a good player..] We once had that default tracks competition where teams could be signed up [like 2 drivers, their tag and their team colours]. That was fun and should be done again.
But of course, nobody has to pay attention to my opinion

I'm only thinking out loud here. If you want to do it your way, I'm not the one to say you shouldn't.

I know what you mean but this cup is done also to involve people in team question.
I really think that team life in ts is great so it is a pity to see lots of players without a tag.
organising some excellent team cup could maybe make them change their ideas
