Aces High 1v1 Dogfight Cup 2016

Hi all. Due to recent interest in hosting another competitive event, I have decided to host a dogfight tournament. It is my honest opinion that cups and tournaments bring more life in the game and that more should be hosted. As such, I have decided to host more small to medium scale cups in the coming months. There will be at least one other DF cup as well as an infantry cup coming up but that's not yet confirmed.

The DF cup will take the form of a 1v1 with the usual rules of engagement. Those rules will be explained here more in details once I am familiar with them, but if someone knows them, please PM me or reply to this topic.

Players can choose the map of their liking for the 1v1, it can be League DF maps or vanilla maps. Server and map choice must be agreed on by both players. The 50/50 rule will be applied, meaning if an American player fights a player from Europe, there will be one match in the American player's server of choice and the other in the European server. If one player doesn't have a server to play on, both matches will be played on a server agreed on by both contestants.

Matches will consist of one round per plane, i.e., player A starts with Spitfire in round 1 and plays with BF109 in round 2 and vice versa for player B. Matches will be no longer than two rounds. Since some dogfights can take a lot of time, score limit to win a round is set to 5.

I have decided to host a cup with 16 contestants. Sign-ups are first come, first served. The cup will be a double elimination knockout tournament with a winners and losers bracket.

I'm open to different suggestions for cup systems.

Current sign-ups for the tournament
SleveN
hanzee_panzee
LL22
Sonic
joint
gio
Viitapiru
Jazzy
dikzak
Néroné
Maxwell
Beyazz
Sommarel
Chibi
KarlsoN
sharp

Possible (yet to confirm) cast
Whoopz

*VERY IMPORTANT! It is your responsibility to play your cup matches. I will not be the police and run after people to beg them to play their cup matches. If you don't show up for your match, then your opponent wins by forfeit, no exceptions. There will be no rescheduling of matches, except in the event where both contestants cannot make it.

For any questions regarding the cup, please PM me. Since this is a 1v1 tournament, there is no need for complicated sign-up forms. If you are interested, just say so by replying to this thread and I will add you in the list of confirmed sign-ups.

EDIT: SIGN UPS ARE CLOSED. THE TOURNAMENT HAS STARTED ON JANUARY 24TH, 2016.

I haven't played against Jazzy yet. I've played against ROM sharp, but I guess whoopz already posted the result.

I haven't received any screenshots confirming the scores.

Guys, please follow the rule regarding score reporting. Do not PM me the results of your matches if there are no screenshots to back them up. If you PM me your match results without the SS, I will not update the bracket.

Now I need the screenshots for the hanzee_panzee vs KarlsoN, SleveN vs romsharp and Jazzy vs dzizak matches before I can update the brackets.

Thank you.

C'mon isn't it enough that both participants agree of the score? Screenshots prove nothing in dfs! Absolutely nothing!

So why didn't you sign up in the tournament Dary

Well, not because i am scared of the skill. Still think Karlson is a good pilot... you don't need to be good at dfs to be a good pilot.

Without screenshots, I have nothing else but your word that you won ''10 - 1'' or whatever. It doesn't matter if two people confirm that the score was 10 - 1! I need a way to confirm this myself, and screenshots are the only way. Plus we need a record of every match if they don't all get filmed.

Since SleveN gave me his screenshot, it would be unfair that others don't do the same. So please, show good sportsmanship and follow the rule.

BTW I have updated the bracket. SleveN moves on to the next round in the Winners Bracket while romsharp goes to the Losers Bracket.

Re: Aces High 1v1 Dogfight Cup 2016

For some reason I am so popular, that the guys wanted me in TS:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7YnHCAaYbK8

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pQrh1X3oCMw

I was considering cutting these to make them shorter, and add some proper commentary, but then there would probably also be no ingame sound. So I was like meh, 2lazi!

Re: Aces High 1v1 Dogfight Cup 2016

Thanks Whoopz! I will watch them with sound when I'm home.

So I have updated the brackets. Jazzy vs Dikzak ended up in a 4 - 3 victory for Jazzy. He will advance to Round 2 where he will face SleveN, who has won 10 - 1 vs romsharp.

joint has won 10 - 3 vs Beyazz, but since they weren't aware of the screenshot rule and didn't accept to do a rematch with SS I have given them a chance and joint will advance to Round 2. Beyazz goes to the Losers Bracket. Make sure you take screenshots of your rounds in the future though guys. Very important!

Chibi vs LL22 is supposed to happen today @ 5 PM (please confirm GMT), so stay tuned guys! And don't forget your screens!

hanzee_panzee and KarlsoN, may I see your screens? I need them to update the bracket. If you haven't taken them, and your match was before I talked about screens, then I will accept the score as KarlsoN mentionned it but make sure that next time, both of you take screens of your rounds.

Sonic, Sommarel, Vita, gio, Maxwell and Nerone, please confirm your match times or talk to your opponent to set up a match date if you haven't already.

Thanks and good luck to all!

Ok make sure you have them for your next match. I will update the bracket for your match but be advised that SS will be mandatory for your next matches guys.

Let's see if hanzee has the screens.

Re: Aces High 1v1 Dogfight Cup 2016

In an extremely tight match, Chibi managed to score the winning frag to advance to round 2, in a sudden death match. The score was tied at 9 - 9 after the first two rounds. The final score was 10 - 9 to Chibi. GG Guys!

Here is the screen: http://www.hostingpics.net/viewer.php?i … 1fight.jpg

Bracket has been updated.
