Should Alienware increase the number to a 256 team tourney? Or should they just expect over 50 teams to drop out before the tourney starts?

Also, do you think they will seed this at all? Or will Loaded play EG in the 2nd round?

I've already asked about seeding. It's going to be random but a cevo admin will have a say on the obvious teams.

There is no way there will be 256 full teams ready to play. Good chance that 128 full rosters will not be reached.

obviously tf2 is dead

yeah, i'd say like 60% of these teams will actually play

and i remember the awesome job cevo did seeding their last tournament

whatever, it should be fun

king of bad

2 - Yup.

Email me at gclay [at] cevo.com if you guys have any questions or suggestions.

that's not how it works #6

I'm guessing about 80 teams will be participating, but I'd be happy to be proven wrong.

terribles are now in

Pretty sure there were terribles in from day 1 #10.

#9, TWL already has 130 something teams that have 6 people on their roster, so hopefully this can get 128!

FUN

Over 220 teams now. Get your rosters full to lock-in a slot.

Update...

198 teams signed up.
46 are ready

Think we will get 128 ready teams?

dj you have no idea how hard it is to get 5 other people to sign up, everyone seems to be incapable of registering for websites without careful instruction.

#20 i believe they are now blight

60 teams tops

sake CODFUCKINGPROFESSIONAL

I think there would be a lot more readied teams if most leaders knew to hit the refresh team status once 6 people joined.

Raped, Quebec.

sometimes i topfrag in pubs

:[ so typical

Update:
217 teams
61 teams ready.

Less than a month left, I'm starting to think we won't get 128 teams ready by the start of the tourney

I was born and raised in the ghetto

obviously, you're asian, surprised you even got the money to board a ship and get here

our team is signed up, but we are too lazy to get everyone added to our roster

how many teams are there that only have one player?

Coming together well. Get your teams fully registered.

tourney is going to be an utter failure, i guarantee it

This comment was edited at 11/18/2009 4:35 PM

Update:
224 teams

72 ready

Only a few Mid or higher teams like Chuckles, Expertise, Helix, koG, and exult have not readied up...the best of them being low/mid, low or unknown teams.

Registration ends in 11 days...assuming that schedules will be made soon after.

Unless the admins make a big push to ask for teams to ready up, I highly doubt they'll get 128 teams for this tourney. Not to mention the number of teams in that 72 that has already broken up or decided to do ESEA and TWL instead. (I can see a few).

I'm not going to be as harsh as #38...but Alienware admins...get on it.

I'm not clear on why some members of this community feel compelled to call everything dead or failing. It's almost as though they take pride in expressing negativity.

We're here bringing sponsorship and support for your community. We hope you join and have fun.

In the last 9 days, we've gone from 46 ready to 72 ready, and from 198 total to 224 total. There's also a healthy number of teams with 4 or 5 members currently on their roster - close to ready.

probably cause this community is full of faggots

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HAFuU94iRq8 - Get to know me!

lmao youre one to fucking talk stingray

Fagots are the most qualified to call others out on being fagots.

Update:
233 teams signed up

82 teams ready

6 days until registration deadline.
10 days until the first match.

What can the Alienware guys do to get 1/3 of the spots filled?

http://tiny.cc/NmOvj

buy everyone who registers cookies?

Essentially the Alienware staff has done everything that it can...from posts here, on CommFT, on Steam news, and on the Steam forums to emails sent to all CEVO members that play TF2, etc. At this point the teams that have to fill in the holes are going to come from the lower levels since (as far as I can tell) most of the recognizable names are signed up. If your team has 4-5 members on it, get ready as soon as possible so we can deal with the remaining slots.

Bump the Steam forums thread too because we can fill quite a few spots with teams of friends who normally wouldn't see these forums or CommFT:
