Welcome!
 

Good to see you on the forum Count, lots of good info here! :cool:

Tournament starts 23 Oct?
 

It's Thursday 20th Oct, 3 days to go, is everything going to schedule?

It does seem like we need an extra week maybe?

Anyway, these are the suggested teams on xbox, leader first. Let me know if this isn't ok for anyone.

Sgt Madmax fury & Jimjamjaro [confirmed]
Robotic Pope & xtomisx [confirmed]
Count von bek & Panzergranate [confirmed]
Bucketmanroc & EvangelusE
Bobbysockser & Sergius186
U2117AZ & Nineinchdaddy69

I'd like to go with these 12 players, I don't think we can get 3 more in time, and as I said before I have never seen Redman before on Xbox IL2 so I suggest he concentrate on the PS3 side.

Beautiful. This made my day robotic pope, thank you for showing so much interest in making this work.

Xbox players are now complete

Yes, I also think its a good idea to delay the tournament a little, Please use the extra days to get confortable with your wingman.

PS3, what is going on with teams? We also need 1 more player. I will team up with whoever ends up with no team mate at the end

Sorry, I just woke up and I'm typing this on my phone, I will update teams and other things later at night, it's currently 7am for me, keep posting, I have not disappeared just a bit busy, thanks again pope

Ok, so instead of October 23, the tournament will begin Friday October 28, this is final. No more changes.

We will have a date for the live randomizing of the tournament groups soon

Robotic pope,
Can you please check with team leaders if they all have any sort of device to take photos with? (camera, phone) this is how they will have to report results, as soon as I have a confirmation I will contact them via e-mail

Thanks Edal, its the least I can do. The camera results thing maybe a problem for some, I will ask everyone though. Although I think we will probably all be flying our matches at the same times so I can probably referee any match that needs a camera. Also I do trust all these chaps so as a last resort i'm sure a writen record of a match from both leaders will be acurate.

Hi Edal,

I *think* I am with "The Few". This is assuming he is in the GMT timezone.
I have no idea what map we are on, but I have sent him a PM to ask.

that is agreeable with me. sergius i sent you a PM.

Disengagement.
 

Panzer,Jimjamjaro,U2711AZ & myself tried a few matches using the tournament rules tonight.
We all seem a little confused on the rule of disengagement.
This must be understood by all involved to ensure a smooth and successfull competition.
:)

my take on the disengagement rule is that once any one aircraft is eliminated the fighting stops ,you basically rtb until you don't see the enemy on radar anymore .
thats why the rules about having a mic are needed.if that rule is waived i suggest that both sides must form up near there base.in other words if you die you must hang back waiting for a visual of your teammate.that seems to be in the spirit of the rule edal has in there,please correct me if i am wrong.
