Okay so in the registration it has for first qualifiers July 12 (NA) / July 13 (EU) and on the newspage its Europe: July 12, 2014 at 10AM PDT (17:00 GMT)
North America: July 13, 2014 at 10AM PDT (17:00 GMT). I think theres a mistake somewhere

Just fixed this, sorry for any confusion, dates on the blogpost were correct.

Can the team name be different from guild name? I’m thinking yes but wanna make sure

Yep that’s fine

Blog Post With Rules/Dates (Please read before signing up!)

Direct Link to Signups

Any questions people have I can try to answer them as well. Let the games begin.

Adding a Common QA section from stuff im often getting through tells and PMs:


  • Q: Do we have to play in all four weekends?
  • A: Nope, teams are only going to play in one of the qualifier weekends and the finals for teams that make it that far.
  • Q: Can we change rosters?
  • A: Yes, but only until July 7th, after this its locked in and NO changes will be allowed.
  • Q: Do we get a confirmation email?
  • A: Nope, the next time you will be contacted (unless there is an issue) will be to confirm your play date after we have sorted that out.
  • Q: Are there any reserved seats/byes being given to teams?
  • A: At the moment no, signups are first come first serve (by first date preference). Individual qualifiers will be seeded by MP.
  • Q: Will Asurans/Legendaries be banned from this event?
  • A: No they will not.

JUNE 30TH UPDATE

Signup form will remain open until 11:59PM PDT on June 30th (Today). This translates to 2:59AM EDT and 08:59 CEST on Tuesday Morning. Make sure you have your team’s signup submitted by this time as NO submissions will be accepted past this time.

As a reminder teams may still request roster changes until July 7th by emailing me at john@mistpedia.net with the appropriate information.

RSVP Emails will be sent out to invited teams over the course of the 30th-31st. Make sure you check your inbox for this and respond to it ASAP!

If you do not get an email in the first round do not be disappointed! We are expecting a decent number of teams to decline their invitation and more waves of emails will be sent out pending any declines.

More information on the brackets and play day procedures along with scheduling, casters, and locations of ToL2 streams will be coming soon, Stay Tuned!

JUNE 30th UPDATE 2

The First Wave of Invitations has been sent out to NA Players. EU invitations will be sent out a little bit later as we are still sorting out the last few spots. The following NA teams need to contact me either in game or through email as the email they had listed was invalid

  • Everything Podinzar

JULY 1ST UPDATE

The first wave of European Invites have been sent. The following teams need to contact me due to invalidated emails.

  • Ministerium für Zeitgeist
  • Vendetta Resurrection

Can you tell me if any of the Outplayed by Children roster is invalid? Our team captain is basically Mia and I can’t access his email or him to check. If you could email any other member of the team that would be great.

I just had a quick glance at the spreadsheet. Pretty sure your team’s names are correct.

You can but a theres a few things to go through:

  • You will only be able to have game text in Chinese
  • You will need to buy a separate account through a service that sells chinese games unless you know someone in china that can buy and activate the account for you because it requires a real name to be linked to it.

Need in-game "replay" with FOW option

in PvP

Posted by: BLUna.7928

BLUna.7928

When it comes down to a replay system and comparing it to Starcraft or a MOBA the thing you have to remember is that those games operate on a 2D plane which has to be rendered back to the player in a completely editable (rewind, fast forward, etc) form. Im still semi-new to programming and I don’t know too much about graphics but I would imagine rendering a third dimension back to the player with all of these features would be an even more difficult task to accomplish.

While Im not saying it isnt a possibility in the future I wouldnt expect it anytime soon.

@OP, We have your information, as stated in the email that was sent to all teams, so long as you replied with your roster you are fine.

@Rezz, the reason I haven’t been replying to my emails is because I already sent an email to all EU captains with all the information I have available in addition to the message that it was being worked on, making it rather pointless to reply with the same information once again. Mark also posted some time ago with this information on another thread. I am also somewhat busy with Semester finals at the moment, and as such I do not have a lot of free time to work on GW2 projects, let alone play the game. We have all rosters confirmed now and that was the only thing holding it back on MP’s end. If I get an opportunity tonight Ill see if I can send out one more email to NA teams as well.

@Maylo Im almost positive Sireph had sent that out, if we were missing your team’s information that may have been why but Ill check with him on that.

Edit @Maylo: Money wasnt sent to your team due to a clerical error, you should get it today.

Mistpedia is Recruiting!

Posted by: BLUna.7928

BLUna.7928

Hey there guys! Mistpedia is currently in the process of expanding our operations and as such we are looking for people to help us out in bringing news, tournaments, and more to the SPvP community! If you are interested in helping us grow, we are currently looking for people to fill the following roles:

  • Administrators: We are looking for people who want to help organize and run events and tournaments in all scales from small weekly events to large scale 64+ team tournaments, mainly in North America, but also in EU fairly soon as well.
  • Editors: We are looking for people interested in maintaining and growing our wiki, which is currently one of the largest sources of SPvP team and tournament knowledge on the web. This will require you to know a little about mediawiki and how it functions, but this is a fairly easy process and we are more than willing to show anyone interested how it functions.

We are also interested in the following roles. While we may not currently be recruiting for these rolls, some applicants may be accepted in exceptional cases

  • Shoutcasters: Fairly self explanatory, if you want to cast, we need people to be on our streams. Make sure you send us an example of any work you’ve done previously so we can see.
  • Blog Writers: We are looking for journalists that wish to cover tournaments and events and write articles on them. We are looking for people that are able to comment on the current teams, meta, and state of the SPvP scene, so make sure you are familiar with the scene and game if you wish to write for us.
  • Content Creation: We need people that want to create awesome assets for our events or possibly even create videos for our youtube channels. If you have experience with any of this, shoot some examples our way so we can take a look.

If you are interested in any of the above roles, go ahead and fill out the application below and tell us what you’d like to do. If you have any further questions go ahead and toss them in the thread here.

ToL NA - Play Times and Procedures

in PvP

Posted by: BLUna.7928

BLUna.7928

Alrighty guys here is how the schedule is going to work for participating teams (all of this information with more specifics will also be emailed to all RSVP’d NA teams tomorrow night). For Match IDs, please check the brackets

The bracket will be split into eight individual pools. Each teams’ pool will determine the start of play time for each team. Each pool will start thirty minutes apart from each other. Once play starts at your scheduled time expect to play through the round of 16 consecutively. You may be given a short break (5-10 minutes) if you so request it between each round. The pools will start at the following times:

  • Pool 1 (Matches A-D): 12PM EDT // 9AM PDT
  • Pool 2 (Matches E-H): 12:30PM EDT // 9:30AM PDT
  • Pool 3 (Matches I-L): 1PM EDT // 10AM PDT
  • Pool 4 (Matches M-P): 1:30PM EDT // 10:30AM PDT
  • Pool 5 (Matches Q-T): 2PM EDT // 11AM PDT
  • Pool 6 (Matches U-X): 2:30PM EDT // 11:30AM PDT
  • Pool 7 (Matches Y-AB): 3PM EDT // 12PM PDT
  • Pool 8 (Matches AC-AF): 3:30PM EDT // 12:30PM PDT

These start times are strict. A 5 minute grace period will be given before the game is started regardless of if the team is present or not. Due to this, we recommend teams join the server about 10 minutes early (server passwords will be given in the email being sent out, server names are listed below) to avoid any issues. Unless you are in Pool 1, please check in with your admin to ensure you will not be joining the server in the middle of a game as this may cause issues. Admins may attempt to contact you approximately five minutes before your match, however if information on your team’s application is incorrect some admins may be unable to accomplish this.

Each pool has four games in the Ro64, please check below to see which Server/Administrator you will report to for your Ro64 game:

  • Server/TO1: A, E, I, M, Q, U, Y, AC
  • Server/TO2: B, F, J, N, R, V, Z, AD
  • Server/TO3: C, G, K, O, S, W, AA, AE
  • Server/TO4: D, H, L, P, T, X, AB, AF

The Admins for the first round can be reached at their IGNs:

  • TO1: TheRuler.1290
  • TO2: Soniti.6451
  • TO3: Resol.9530
  • TO4: kaigen.9416

When/If your team makes it to the Round of 16, your game may be played immediately or you may be asked to wait as the stream will be starting with the Ro16 and we may want to showcase your game on the stream. If we do not want to showcase your game you will more than likely play it immediately after your Ro32 game and then be given a break until the Ro8 play starts. All Games from the Ro8 onward will be shown on stream.

Once the Ro8 has been completed, play for Saturday will end. For any teams remaining at this point, you will need to checkin with an admin again on Sunday morning. Play will resume on Sunday at 4PM EDT // 1PM PDT

That about wraps it up for how were going to handle things, I just wanted to toss out a few reminders so teams make sure they have no issues playing on the days of:

  • Ensure your roster is either the same as the one you have submitted or you have updated myself via email at this point. If your roster is different you need to contact me via email ASAP (john@mistpedia.net) so we can work out issues because your team WILL NOT BE ALLOWED TO PLAY if your roster does not match our records.
  • Any and all emergency roster changes must be made by Friday at 11:59PM EDT. NO CHANGES WILL BE HONORED PAST THIS POINT.
  • Remember that your substitute may only be used in the event that your main roster player is not present. You MAY NOT use your substitute as a tactical swap mid tournament.
  • Please ensure to minimize the risk of any disconnects or issues with lag. We will not be honoring resets from disconnects unless it is an issue affecting every player in the game (Server Crashes, etc).

NA Brackets Finalized

Is this it: http://mp.challonge.com/ToLNA ?

My question is that based on your EU seeding and NA seeding all of 8 you chose have 1 team in different bracket groups except for 1.

On the NA side bracket group E-H has two of your top 8 hand-picked teams seeded in the same group. Whereas bracket-group AC-AF have none of the seeded teams of the top 8.

My point being, any team in the E-H cluster has a much harder time getting into the top 8 than a team in the AC-AF cluster. Was this intentional? It seems odd that you’d only stack that one bracket group with more than one top-pick.

AC-AF has a 6 seed…so idk if this was changed since when you saw or maybe you overlooked it?

Team ‘Elusive’ may be listed as a 6 seed but they were not mentioned as one of the top 8 seeds.

Team Teamwork was, however, listed as a top 8 pick but now they appear as ‘9’.

Logically it looks like numbers got messed up somewhere and Team Teamwork was listed as #9 by accident instead of #6.

I’ll edit the source for the top 8 NA seeded teams in a second.

NA

  • Good Fights
    Apex Prime:
  • Outplayed by Children:
  • Team Lonely:
  • Team Teamwork:
  • No Good Intentions,
    Obeesports,
    It Aint Ez Bein KPz:

Being in the 8 preselected teams did not guarantee a top 8 seed in the brackets. Ellusive was formed extremely close to the tournament, with this in mind along with other reasons they were not picked for preselected teams. The reason they were placed within the higher seeds is because MP staff members such as myself had seen them improve in weekly tournaments or team arena play over some of the teams listed after them which is why they are within the higher cluster.

Just as a last minute update, the brackets should be finalized in the next few hours. I apologize in advance for their instability, but due to teams dropping out with roster issues and new ones being added in it has reshaped positions for teams a couple of times. Once I have a confirmed 64 Ill lock it down and update this post.

Are teams that you don’t know just randomized for their seed?

Essentially, Ive been checking with a few EU community members to make sure I dont miss any teams to be in seeded positions, its been a few days since I checked so I may do one more checkin before I finalize the brackets. Everyone else gets a random seed.

In regards to rationalization for each team that was pre-invited:

NA

  • Good Fights & Apex Prime: Easily two of the top contenders in the region dominating tournaments regularly.
  • Outplayed by Children: A newer team to come onto the scene, but they have already shown in the team queue and in the Mistpedia Weeklies that they can contend with Good Fights and many of the other teams.
  • Team Lonely: This team consists of two members from SYNC, the second place team from the PAX Invitational; Tany, who along with Caed, dominated the weekly 2v2 North American tournaments for 12 tournaments virtually uncontested; Quilja, previous team member of vVv who placed second in the Mistpedia Invitational among other tournaments; and new team member Necitor. The combined achievements of this roster marks them as one of the teams likely to perform very well in the event.
  • Team Teamwork: Third place finishers of the Mistpedia Invitational. The team competes regularly with some of the other invited teams such as Ngi and Obeesports.
  • No Good Intentions, Obeesports, and It Aint Ez Bein KPz: These final teams were invited based on either their performance in a tournament or their performance seen within team queue.

EU
With North American I was familiar with a lot of the teams because of my ability to spectate team queue games through the Authorized Shoutcaster Program. As I do not get as many chances to spectate on EU, these choices were slightly harder to make. I had spoken with a few EU members of the Authorized Shoutcaster program and some of these teams were their suggestions.

  • Car Crash: First place finisher of the GW2 PAX Invitational and a team that performed extremely well in tournaments in the past.
  • Made in Meta: Similarly to CC, this team performed very well in tournaments in the past and as such we are fairly confident in their ability to make a competitive comeback for this event.
  • The Civilized Gentlemen, Fifty Five Hp Monks, Read it Backwards: These three teams constantly battle it out during the ESL weekly cups and during these cups they are the top performers in virtually every week.
  • Destructive Influence: Consisting of previous members of Cheese Mode, who for a time was arguably one of the bests teams on EU, we were confident in this team’s ability to do well in this tournament.
  • I Love Lunch and Otist Team: These teams were recommended by EU members of the Authorized Shoutcaster Program

Apologies in advance if people find these explanations lackluster. If anyone has further questions in regards to how/what I considered they may feel free to contact me.

Let's Guess the Team Comps for the Finals

Wow. Can’t believe no one says decap engi yet?

decap engi sucks in high level teamplay. Its only good for soloq

vVv played a “Decap Engi” in their comp and it kind of worked. Extremely cheesy though. Their whole comp revolved around being annoyingly tanky and just never loosing points.

Quick question: On the signups it said that a 6th player was optional. Do you need a sub/6th to be considered a full team?

Nope, as long as you’re a full 5 thats good enough.
