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

gio
Viitapiru
Jazzy

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.

Funny fact is I once ripped the starting song from youtube, but I didn't know the author of it. Now I hear it again in your vid. Can you tell me?

Re: Aces High 1v1 Dogfight Cup 2016

UPDATE: I lost to Karlsson 4-6. Had a beer before a match and this costed me 2 points.
Moral of the story is obvious.

Pfft I'm just waiting for the moment that sleven is drunk enough to play the match.

Naah, if we played it now it would be a long wait for the losers' bracket to catch up. So training is a good choice indeed
