From experience i would like to suggest removing rules

1. No time wasting duels.
2. No excessive running.

which are problematic because they are subjective, and instead instate the new following rule

1. All tournament duels must take place in the private rooms of map mb2_duel_training

because in these dueling rooms there is OBJECTIVELY no possibility for excessive running, and in case of time waste the players can hack a 5s objective that will kill the other player, winning them the duel.

Yeah what stassin said. The rooms on MB2_duel_training are perfect for a 1v1 tournament. No distractions, small enough for no excessive running and it'll give FPS boosts to players aswell as isolate sounds.

I am am considering hosting a EU one as well, just gotta do a poll on times since I am NA.

I appreciate the input, I will actually change that rule and the map being used.

Let's say, purely theoretically you disappear right after. Do you have any people who will vouch for your initiative? Someone known, who can be used as a proxy between you later?

I would hate for such a thing to happen so that is why I am asking. Also provide your PayPal (let us make sure you have some ties just in case). Idea is great I would love to participate myself, but seeing someone out of blue who is eager to put money is unusual. Let us make sure everything is straight.

Down boy....

I will join this tournament.

Question: no melee but kata is allowed. This is the mouse 1+2 grapple, yes?

Also I am in agreement with others on timewaste and excessive running as well as it's fix by using a duel map

The first 6 participants know me well, I have been around since 1.3. I am formerly known as Swizz. If you want my PayPal it's [email protected].

Also i made a new account yesterday because my old account was aod_swizz
I am no longer in aod. You can trust my word this tourney will happen.
