The below is left for historic reasons only
Any Newbs that want to join, send me a PM with your details

Groups will begin to be sent out on Tuesday-Wednesday

Each round is 1 set of 3 matches taking place in 1 night!

Format would be something like the following:
Groups of 4 players, playing all 3 permutations of 2v2, all matches played on a single night as follows:
First Match: 10:00 pm: Player 1 & Player 2 VS Player 3 & Player 4
Second Match: 10:10 pm: Player 1 & Player 3 VS Player 2 & Player 4
Third Match: 10:20 pm: Player 1 & Player 4 VS Player 2 & Player 3
Top 2 players from each group go through, plus the best third placed teams required to make the numbers work.

I'm thinking we will just keep going in the above [3 x 2v2] format for each round. That way we can go from 16 players to a winner in just 3 rounds. (16 > 8 > 4 > 1)

Let me know your PSN name in the sign up. First round would be sorted by time and dates available.

I'm definitely up for it if the time/day we are playing suits, Sunday & midweek after ten I should be ok but Friday/Saturdays are a bit up in the air

We'll be able to spectate on matches too, you can request to watch via their profile page
 
Do we need to pick a partner?

I'm in, but I've never even played Rocket League online, just with my mates.

No need for a partner. Each round you will be given 3 teammate-opponents. You play 3 matches with and against them, 1 match with each teammate.

Don't worry about it! It's just a lot of fun!

I'll try and match you with people who can do a similar timeframe.
 
Post work bump

I'll do something about the PSN names being visible later
 
Is there still some space in there? Sign me up if there's still some room.

Loads of space.

The more the merrier.

I'll probably 'close' registration on Tuesday afternoon, and start working out the groups, but people can probably still sign up even then
 
I really like this format by the way. It looks really good.

By the way, will we have two winners in this tournament or one in the end?

The final group will give a gold silver and bronze I guess, so we'll get an outright winner
 
I might be interested as long as doesn't crash with work.
Psn thingie is Dliramoth
 
You are right, of course ;)

Anyway, how do you plan to avoid players lose on purpose in 3rd match?
If your teammate has high score, and you want to avoid him getting more points? :p

Work is unimportant. Rocket League is life
Seriously, though, what will the schedule be like? Will we have to play matches during the weekdays? What will happen for people like me who are in a different continent?

There are no teams. Each player plays for themselves but will get put into all possible combinations with other players in their group. In the end, there will be 1 winner.

Top 2 go through to the next round it says.
I might benefit from my last teammate not going through, and want to throw the match.
How do we avoid it?
I refuse to believe everyone will play fair :p

If everything goes perfectly, I'm hoping we can start playing one set of three matches a week. On Tuesday I will send everyone PM asking what the best time/days for them to play matches is, and just try to match people together (who cares in the first round right?)

Then each group of 4 has 1 week to arrange the set of matches. Last time most people played from about 9pm-Midnight British time, but I leave that up to people to sort out.

In the later rounds, It's going to be more difficult because I cant match people together, but easier because there are less people to sort out. It maybe that it just doesn't work for everyone though, but who knows!

It shouldn't be possible that it benefits you to lose a match, but who knows. Maybe there will be something I am missing!
 
I will probably start working out the groups and logistics of this tomorrow morning, so please sign up tonight if possible
 
Where am I on that list? Do I put my details on there? I'm confirmed to be registered for this tourney, no?
 
Yeah I'm up for some games

PSN: Monkey_Plunkett

I really should be starting Ratchet and Clank by now but the anticipation of this RL tournament has me wanting to make sure my game is on point.

Watch me fail majestically now I've said that :nervous:

I need to finish mine, it's quite short. I've stopped just before the final boss I think.
 
Reminder - Please sign up tonight if you are interested if possible!
