Were you guys okay with signing up each week? I was just trying to simplify things for you guys. Since everyone has a TL account I would PM them checking to see if they were available. You make a good point though Cryoc, that it could shorten the time to play each other if the person is not available. Also, @Terror, thanks for posting that. It is nice to know that people are signing up with discretion.I'd hold off on signing up until you guys can answer: would you rather sign up each week or risk having shorter time to play your bo9?

Same here, I am busy every 2nd weekend.

Also, people may want to snipe someone, rather than going against unknown opponent, because from what i read, the winner stays and awaits another opponent, right? So being the 1st one to play is somewhat a risk, going into unknown :D

So are you for or against weekly signups? Lol

I say weekly signups are better, less time waiting to see if people are actually available or not, they signup when they are going to be available. Also if we have this thread be for all signups, it will probably become inactive quickly and be hard to find, so lead to less signups in future. Although both of those problems could be fixed even with an all in one signup method as well tbh.

@BisuDagger you said you set out with a goal to have 4 foreign maps and the last map that would be considered is Crown and Sceptre. Well you ran the public poll, and more people voted to have Crown and Sceptre in (it was 17 to 16 when the time ran out, and its currently 19 to 18 still anyway). So I assume you are going to go with the majority and put it in the map pack right? Would be nice to have that confirmed.

I agree, this map is pretty nice

also, Someone might want to snipe, but it isn't guaranteed that that said player will even get to play the KOTH.

Also, just cuz someone wants to snipe doesn't mean they actually CAN :D (get some)

That would be a nice thing to confirm. I'm updating the OP and LP.

The poll was close and to me signifies no red flags. CAS is now replacing Pathfinder.

Up to one previous to the current season will count. I think that is fair.

I'm concerned that there might be 20+ signups from good players and they'll crowd out the best players who may not even get matches because random draw.

Just realized that the OP links to the old version of Overwatch. You should relink it here: http://www.panschk.de/mappage/comments.php?mapid=4704, which is the iCCup version.

Isn't that a positive thing though? We could just have only the guys who have hit C/B on Fish recently play, but that would limit the player pool to a few guys. And I understand that there is a huge difference in skill among A- players on Iccup. And I still don't care.
I like the way it is now, some oldschool gosus (Predator, Naugrim) will get a change to play. Or some of the newcomers to A ranks (ty2). It will be fine.
