Custom map cup
Information
The custom map cup is being played this weekend. As stated in the previous newspost, these matches can NOT be rescheduled. Noshow will be punished by forfeit loss. We've made a new ruleset specificly for this cup, you can read the rules here. You will play 2 rounds on 1 map against each opponent in the group play. After all those matches are played, the top 2 of each group goes into the final match of the group. Find more specifics in the rules, read them carefully. The times for the first matches of each day are set, the other matches might be pushed a little bit if some teams take long to finish their matches, you will be required to be around most of the evening, but we believe that these times also gives room for breaks in between the matches. We estimate that a match will take between 30-60minutes.
Hope you will have lots of fun playing this weekend, here are the matches!
Update: "No close spawns mod" have been added to the rules. Find a link in the ruleset. It will prevent close spawns, and prevent "bad marine spawns" on ns2_triad in the cup. which causes random cross spawns in north/south tech points on triad. The East/West techpoints are simply too unfair for marines as starting locations. Huge thanks to Mendasp for creating this mod, and the ns2_nsl maps which we are going to use for season 2!
Reminder: The signups for the Invitational Qualifiers are closing on monday the 18th of Febuary! Matches will be played the 23rd-24th of Febuary, and if you're top 8 in the cup, you will proceed to the 16-team Invitational the weekend after at the 2nd-3rd of March. Hurry and sign your team up, if you want to compete for a 5000$ prizepool by UWE and 2300$ worth of gaming gear from Logitech G-Series, with the grand final being played in Cologne, Germany on April 12th travel and hotel expenses covered by UWE! This is for EU/US teams only, due to UWE's budget for this!

Hello,
There was an error. This is not the Bites&Spikes who is registered but Spikes & Bites!!!
These are two different teams. Thank you for the correction.

Confusing... :(

How is it confusing? All the matches are there to see, with times and days. If you have a suggestion how to make it better, please post that instead.

My mistake on Spikes & Bites, sorry. Did something similar with CiB, I will correct it before the weekend.

I meant that having a team named Spikes & Bites, and a team named Bites & Spikes is confusing. The post is fine :) -- although, it'd be nice to have the workshop ID of the maps.

are these all starting at the exact same time? What is the casting situation like?
14 February 2013, 19:55
@semihandy Ah I see, I will put links and IDs into the post/rules soon.
@oddity we have had a few casters signed up, but far from every match is covered. Group A, B and C are EU based, they will play their own groups simultaneously. While Group D and E which are NA based groups, including 3 SA teams play their groups matches simultaneously.
