America versus Europe Scrim: April 17th

[pollenator]

ill be there backing the uk

[SGTRyon]

Interested in playing.

[Elmo]

i will play if you let me 

[JohnnyNashville]

Just a few more days...have we decided on ...

 

a server

a password

number of maps (I suggest first team to win 3)

 

It would be nice to have a admin spectate

I figure mode can be determined by number of players

maps by vote

I can take screenshots of End of round scores and post

 

Thanks to all,

We've sort-of secured the 64 slot US server for this scrim. I've also sort-of gotten confirmation from two admins they'll be helping out so that password thing won't be a problem. I will do a PM flood to everyone who's said they're showing up to confirm and then I will draft the teams.

 

I've already gotten suggestions for modes, but I will hold out a minute for the actual team sizes because I don't think carrier assault will work with two teams of 8.

 

My thinking right now is: 

- one round of CTF

- one round of CQ-S on a small map with limited vehicles (the foresty one with the aztec temple and one LAV and one tank looks pretty decent for small teams with vehicular warfare)

- one round of Gun Master with idiotic/explosive weapons (USAS, C4, M320, XM25, crossbow w/ explo bolts, that railgun thing, mortar, claymore for instance. Still working this one out)

OR

- a round of Demolition replacing whichever of these modes doesn't suit people. 

 

The idea being to have three modes we don't play normally (most of us don't play CTF or Demolition very much and my personal experience is virtually nobody ever plays as a team with vehicles, so that could be interesting and different) 

 

If there are any issues with server availability Jay and Murda will be the ones who are held to be at fault. We can make them buy a few rounds of drinks in York i there's issues.

This is nice, can we do it also in the freeztag server?

 

europe / usa (like)

[DuckyofDeath123]

Eh... drimpy, this is a Battlefield scrim. COD servers are notorious for not running that.

if you are going to do gun master i think it is best to let the server pick the weapons, because the mortar thing is going to be nonsense! i would prefer the map 311 for a gun master! just my thoughts!

So did the US get anymore players or do we just stomp anyone that comes lol

[DuckyofDeath123]

The odds are not in their favor right now but we can give them a few of the Europeans that smell b... I mean that want to help even things out.

15 vs 8... Yeah, we're gonna have to do a little juggling there

First though I will send out a DM spam again to make sure everyone is still on board. Experience shows that 15-8 will likely become 12-6 or something.

DOD - put me down. We claim @Tyntje. 

[Goesje]

We claim @Tyntje. 

 

When they start claiming, things tend to go south?

Eggcellent, Tyntje and Codpiece added to the rota. 

I've DMed everyone to confirm presence, but not everyone has read the message yet. 

 

Still, we seem to have a bunch of accepteds already

[DuckyofDeath123]

For anyone asking: since we're going to be using the XI teamspeak server, just join that and we will hand out the server password a few minutes before we begin joining. the idea is to have an admin holding our hands with regards to mapgame mode settings anyway so tey can set a password on it there and then. (we'll be using the US 64slot server, since it's usually still empty by that time.)

[IJHicks]

hardcore or poof mode?

[Goesje]

Classic

[JAYsus_NL]

Classic

 

You go wash ur mouth with soap!!!

[7Toes]

[kadaverke]

Have fun!

 

I want to give the other team a chance to win, so I will not be joining. Also, I have to work..

[DuckyofDeath123]

That's OK kada, we've got so many Europeans and so few Americans, I think we might stand a chance anyway.

 

Now if everyone will excuse me I'm going to have a quick think on who's going in what team

[DuckyofDeath123]

Oh and though I think poof mode would be hilarious (since it's well possible nobody remembers how that minimap works) we're going for the usual HC mode since we're all so used to that by now.

Count me in!
