BF1942 Mini League Tanks [FALL 2019 SEASON SIGNUP AND RULES]

This tournament is hosted by SiMPLE. tuia kindly agreed to start a server for this event, which should be live on Friday. Many thanks to him!

After discussing with a bunch of players, I have decided to start a new Mini League season. Since the last two season were infantry seasons, this time it will be tanks only.

The rules are basically the same as the previous infantry competitions, but for tanks. Tank maps will be Conquest, and 2v2. There is a possibility to play 3v3 matches, if both teams agree.

Rules and general info

- No camping main bases with tanks
- Only tanks can be used to kill your opponent, all other weapons will be disabled
- If your tank is destroyed but you survived as an infantry, you must suicide to respawn at your main base
- All camera views are allowed
- Game mode is Conquest only, for all matches
- 8 teams of two, three or four players
- 20 minute rounds, two rounds per map and two maps per match
- All contestants must wear their team tags during live league matches
- Screens must be taken after each round by team leaders. No screens = the match doesn’t count
- Recording is not mandatory but highly advised for everyone in the competition
- No ragequitting during matches will be tolerated. Doing so will result in a penalty for the offending team
- No ringers are permitted
- No chatting during live matches (using k) is permitted except for “gg” and wishes of good luck before a match
- Teams must engage themselves to play all their league matches
- No locked maps, a team can choose the same map throughout the whole competition if they wish
- No cheating of any kind will be tolerated. The league server will have PunkBuster enabled. Cheaters will be removed immediately from the competition and their team banished
- Running your game in Windowed Mode is not permitted for anticheat purposes
- One referee per match, his/her role will be to film the whole game. Individual recording of the matches is also highly advised.
- Match days are flexible, going from Thursday to Sunday. We will try to have all teams have one match every week, so the competition doesn't drag on for too long
- After season cup with the four highest ranked teams at the end of the season
- Results table accessible on this topic
- No switching teams during the season
- All teams must show up at their matches. No forfeit wins are accepted, if a team can't play their match on time, they will do it when they are available but will receive penalty points
- Same penalty system for offences is applied for this competition
- The competition will be hosted on tuia's server, and official tank league matches can only happen there
- No league matches can happen after 18:30 CET on Sundays

Map pool

- tl_tank_arena
- tl_tank_arena (tamplier version)
- tl_cambrai
- tl_aberdeen
- tl_agheila
- tl_sunset
- tl_hellendoorn

Point system

The point system in this league is identical to the previous Mini League infantry competitions. The most important thing to remember is that the victor of a match is determined by the total number of tickets, not the amount of rounds won.

That way, in a match where both teams won the same amount of rounds (2 each) and where one side has a larger amount of tickets, the match does not result in a draw, but in a victory for the side which has more tickets.

In short, the number of remaining tickets of a team is the first thing the referees look at when determining the winner of a match. The number of rounds won comes right after in the unlikely event of a tie for the number of remaining tickets for both teams. Below is a recap of the point system to be used for the upcoming league:

1) Victory (V) = 3 points
2) Draw (D) = 1 point
3) Loss (L) = 0 point
4) Penalties = -1 point

Re: BF1942 Mini League Tanks [FALL 2019 SEASON SIGNUP AND RULES]

Ok guys, I decided to stop the registration process today, even though I originally said that it was going to last until November 1st. This is because we have more than enough signed up teams (10) and having more will be a logistical nightmare for the organizers.

The competition still starts on November 1st, 2019.

Thank you for your comprehension.

Re: BF1942 Mini League Tanks [FALL 2019 SEASON SIGNUP AND RULES]

Team leaders: your team can have up to five players if you wish. Although team registration is now closed, you are allowed to add new team members to your respective teams until November 1st, 2019.

On that note, my team, 3v., is looking for an additional player. If you are interested, please PM me.

I guess you were right. We have 9 teams now, [SH-88] was removed due to trolling. Please check the updated schedule guys. Every team will have a "bye" week (meaning no match) since we have 9 teams now.

Re: BF1942 Mini League Tanks [FALL 2019 SEASON SIGNUP AND RULES]

All right guys, I have another map update to post here. This update only affects tl_agheila, tl_hellendoorn and tl_tank_arena_t and fixes a few bugs on these maps.

If you downloaded previous versions of either of these maps, delete all of them, including the patch files (files ending in 001) for tl_agheila and tl_hellendoorn. Replace these maps with the files below, which were all updated on November 1st, 2019 @ 10:43 EST (GMT -5).

tl_agheila
tl_hellendoorn
tl_tank_arena_t

Here is an updated map pack, containing all the latest tank maps, including the ones above:

BF 1942 Mini League Tank Maps (Final Update)

I'm also going to create a new topic for all the files needed to play the tanks league. Please check the BF1942 Tournaments section for that thread, as well as possible other new topics that might pop up shortly regarding the league.

Re: BF1942 Mini League Tanks [FALL 2019 SEASON SIGNUP AND RULES]

Hey guys, we are looking for two more referees to help us arbitrate and film the matches. To join the team, you must have a computer with a working version of ShadowPlay or OBS, or any full version of any gameplay recording software such as Fraps. You must also know the rules of the league well and be able to apply penalties if necessary.

In addition to this, you must be available from Thursday to Sunday, from 18:00 CET to 22:00 CET. If you would like to join the team, simply PM Flettnerman or me and we will go from there. Thanks.

=[§R]= has decided to leave the competition. So, I will have to redo the match schedules. If you have set a date to fight your opponent, please cancel it, as every team will have new opponents from now on. Thank you.

Re: BF1942 Mini League Tanks [FALL 2019 SEASON SIGNUP AND RULES]

An incident happened on Sunday, November 17th, 2019, implicating the match between 3v. and AK| being played on a server that wasn't the official tank league match server. This was due to a communication mistake from me to Flettnerman. Just to clear this up: in the future, matches can only be played on the Tanks 2v2 League server. No other server can be used for this competition. PCWs of course can be played on any server, it doesn't matter.

On top of this, matches cannot be scheduled after 18:30 CET on Sundays. This is because players participating in BF League have clan wars at 20:30 CET that day, and these players are needed for their respective clan wars.

This is just a general announcement to say I will not participate in the next matches of 3v. for an indeterminate period.

So, I have asked my partners dary and Denny to look for a new partner to replace me. I will assist them in doing so as well.
