Well, time for me to do something with my life. And that, my friends, is to bring you a new EoFF Event!

Once every two months, assuming this goes off well, I will be organizing a tournament of a different online game.

Be it PC, Console, or downloaded (Any that require a download I run will be free, and I'll make sure to test it out and scan it for virus's before linking), I'm willing to run a tournament for it.

In addition, I will be keeping a list of each tournaments winners, and they will be known forever as an EoFF Grand Master of the game. (By Forever I mean until the game is used again in a future tournament and they have their title stripped away.)

Given most free games are giving me serious Server issues right now, (At least the ones I know of), Our First official Tournament will be none other then the Cult Class, HALO! (Well, not Halo, Halo 3, but saying Halo alone sounds a lot better. :p)

Depending on the sign ups will depend on how the tournament will be set up.

If there are a lot of people, it will be a Bracket, if only a few, we may just run it as a round Robin.

Admittedly, I do not no much about Halo 3, so I'll be looking into other tournaments for guidelines on putting this one together.

So come one, come all, to the Halo 3 Grand Masters tournament!

Contenders for the title of Grand Master!

Sorry AK, no Go.

There will probably be another tournament by July though, but the chances of me running another Halo 3 are slim. :p

More then likely, it will either be Mario Kart Wii, or Brawl, as I believe them europeans will have it by then. :p

*nominates 'Immaterial and Missing Power' as a downloadable game that can be played online if you know the other person's IP address*

I technically have Halo3, but have never played it. I bet I suck. Plus, my gaming time is around midnight to 6AM eastern time.

1) Nominate downloadable games later.

2) Before I forget, all online Console and PC games you would be interested in having a tournament for, PM them to me, and make sure to mention the system they are on. Those lists will be used to determine future Tournaments.

Edit: Well Bleys, it's not to late to brush up your skills and join. :p

Join the club then, chief. Gaming time, that is. I'm actually decent at Halo 3. I'll probably get boned in a tournament regardless.

Y'know, this is something I've always wanted to do on EoFF, just never did. Glad to see someone's running with it... even if it's for a game I don't have nor play xD

The next game, for balance, should be SSBB :]]]

I would be down with participating, but I've got my finals in the next two weeks.

Ouch!
04-29-2008, 10:28 AM
If this final takes place some time after May 9, I'll be available. Before then, likely not.

If you had done this before GTA IV I would have been down to death but now, there are far more important things to play. :heart:

Psy had this idea. The Browns versus the Blues. The Browns represent Eoff 2.0 and the blues are Classic. Duke it out to see which skin is superior.

That's crazy talk. I don't care if people who like the brown skin are like Char freakin' Aznable at video games, the blue skin > the colour of turd.

1) It's likley it'll be a a week or so before the tournament itself actually starts, so it will be after may 9th.

2) I know GTA IV is out, but it's still pretty new, and I wasn't sure if the multi-player was actually some kind of Vs. or not.

I would be down for a Halo tournament if it's done when I'm around. But my 360's borked right now and I'll be gone most of May, so I'll likely be sitting it out.

Also, do you have Halo 3? Just sayin' it might be a little difficult for you to run a tournament if you don't actually have the game in question.

NeoCracker
04-29-2008, 09:30 PM
Saddly no.

But I can just walk down to my friends house, as he has it. :p

If I'm doing this regularly like I plan, I can't just stick to games I have, as right now that would limit it to Mario Kart Wii and Smash Bros.

Give me a set date, and I'll check if I'm available to play.

Crap. Set date.

How about, May 12th?

05-10-2008, 07:53 PM
So is this happening in two days time or what? :cool:

And what kind of set up are we gonna have? Like a free for all or something? 'cause if so, BR starts on The Pit kthxbye.

You could always make a throwaway XBL name that you only use that one time if you don't want people contacting your family or anything like that.

You damn straight it's happening, even If I only have like, 3 people.

I really need to time these things better.

So, lets go for a Slayer Match, first to 25 points.

The Stage will be The Pit.

So, unless a Massive amount of people join in the next two days, our GRAND MASTER will be decided on a single round. :p.

Hmm, thought you would have done this by now.

I'm down to play now that my finals are done. I'll probably suck since I haven't been playing Halo 3 for a couple months now because of GTAIV and COD4.

Oh, and you should totally do a GTAIV one. The multiplayer on that is sooo much fun.

Personally I'd say one of the race modes would be the best, but a standard deathmatch would work too.

NeoCracker
05-11-2008, 12:15 AM
Hey, I said quite a while Back it wasn't going to be until the 12th, I needed to give people some time to get their finals out of the way. :p

Seriously? Can you do that without it costing money? xD

Uh...yes? Free one month gold trial, anyone? Not that it matters, as I'm pretty sure you only need a Silver account to play in custom games anyway.

People do it all the time just so they can face low ranked players because they're too afraid to play people of their own level.

it's only a step below people who party up with nubs so they get matched up with nubs, boy I sure hate those cheapos what dirty dirty players they are

05-11-2008, 08:22 PM
Eh, actually now that I thought about it I'd probably be willing to just use my XBOX Live account but, I'm having some trouble joining certain games, because I'm on a restricted setting, and we don't know how to change it to open :/

I'm fucking terrible at Halo but I'd play for fun. I'd like to say yes for definite but it's my brother's xbox so I can only play when he's not in/not playing GTA IV. :jess:

NeoCracker
05-12-2008, 12:57 PM
Well, looks like we only have 4 people who can play then.

You four will now commence in a round as soon as you can.

Remember, The Pit, Slayer set to 25 kills, and keep the Weapons on the Default.

Ready set, GO!

It might be easier to just add everyone's gamertags and play whenever there are a few people online (and playing Halo 3. If I'm playing Lost Odyssey, frack off)
