Intresting pairs, maybe I should drink only 10 beers before matches instead of 15 and half bottle of vodka.

Everyone in FRR knows that the more you drink the cooler your mech runs. So better tell the 'Amenites' to load up on the drinks

And Dok + rest of the lance 'Discovery Channel', were coming for you in the finals

But what happens in case of a draw? Rematch?
Also starting time? Anything alot later then 22:00 will be difficult to make. But then we had our matches around 24:00 the first evening.

We will finish the matches! I will work out how we actually gonna do it and will inform you guys in time.
And I am thinking 10pm just as the past saturdays. After all we have only 8 matches instead of 30!

[Sgt Helmet]

Either I fail at forums or the info is not available. So when exactly the next round is?

Doublecheck in case I missed the info. So far i've gathered 8th and 10pm (assume CET), but obviously the date is wrong so I gather it must be the 15th then? Which was the next date set in the first post.

[Klappspaten]

Yes, it will be on the 15th February probably on 10pm central european time

Dont get me started about that ... I still trying to figure out how to make it do what I want.
I will get it running for the elimination rounds.

[Jarl Dane]

You can do it, Klap.
I have faith in you.

There you go, the brackets for the emilination rounds are online.

[Klappspaten]

We WILL start on saturday at 10pm central european time!
That is the same time as the previous weeks.

We also wont have any draws, you win or you loose and if you take 15 minutes to do so.
But I hope we wont see any 15 minute matches, I want you guys to be rough to each other!

[fluffypinkbunny]

Klappspaten likes it rough.

We are still using same method for starting positions as in previous rounds? Not the default ones?

[Doktor Totenkopf]

I 2nd (!) this question. Would be interesting to know and might influence loadouts.

[Klappspaten]

Yes we will continue to give out starting positions and we sill try do do 2 games per drop.
I really really wont do something like that again before we got private matches ^^

[fluffypinkbunny]

I personally would like private lobbies, placing units in lances before drop, and even picking form a few starting locations before drop. so people can start close to a location that you WANT them to, not somewhere random in one of 3 spots

I cant wait for that to happen.
The random drop thing is good for PUGs but its disastrous for organized teams.

True enough. Practicing get so much easier and meaningful, when we can pick up opponents, make deals on drop deck tonnages and so on. Right now you must always prepare for worst, which is Varyagians with their 4*733C + 4*Spider 5D + 4*3D Get's ******' boring pretty fast and sucks so hard that could start up a russian truck from exhaust pipe.

Sadly the story of Team Helmet ended right away in the quarter finals.

But even so we had a lot of fun and want to thank the teams we fought for good games and a special big thank you to the organizers for getting this up and running. Most fun I've had in MWO in quite some time.

Cheers!

[Sgt Helmet]

Thanks for the opponents and organizers! Great fun!

Had some purpose for playing MWO for a while.

A Dragon challenge tournament next? Real FRR style!

[Reno Blade]

Great games!
At 0:30 o'clock we were pretty tired and made a few mistakes costing us the victory.
The hard push in the finals was too much for me

[Doktor Totenkopf]

Great games. Nail biting final...1 vs 1. You gotta watch the streams.
