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.

Re: Aces High 1v1 Dogfight Cup 2016

Beyazz is alive. Beyazz confessed to Jazzy. Beyazz came here first to win the tournament but then Beyazz realized that it's not very nice to the pilots that are good, like Joint, Viitapiru and Hanzee, don't get him wrong, he doesn't want to be arrogant. Beyazz just wanted to beat Jazzy and then lose the tournament on purpose, but the table didn't follow up to his expectations.

It's a defwin for you Hanzee. My apology to you sommarel, you deserve a 2nd chance, however you would never stand a chance against Hanzee anyway. It wouldn't make much difference whether I would let you win or not. If you look at it on that point of view, it's not too bad but in the practise I'm still sorry you french bot smile But I still think you enjoyed that dogfight against him wink

Last but not least, my biggest apology to you Mamba. It's good in that way that it doesn't really affect the table.
And a little sorry to Beyazz, he was supposed to be the legendary pilot in the aces high. The guy who barely can't take off with the plane (possibly) ends up in first place. Would have been a funny first impression with a smile on his face smile

I guess I'm disqualified and I understand that :-))))

Ok I got it:)

My opinion is that its a scummy move, but hey, he is one of the best pilots and nothing would have changed. Skill gets to top, no matter the name. I had fun in this tournament, ty Mamba for hosting.

Well, I guess I will record someone else  in the final match hehe big_smile

Re: Aces High 1v1 Dogfight Cup 2016

You're right Mamba. Lack of respect to your tournament, I'm sorry even tho it barely affected the table.  I appreciate
your glow to keep things active.

"Guys if you want to act like kids and not play serious in the tournaments, then I will not host any cups in the future."

Nono, don't get me wrong. I was playing serious with SleveN.

Nah but Mamba, I'm sorry. I respect your engagement to this tournament and I failed to follow the rules and should be disqualified, that's fair play. 

But sometimes you are also very silly! https://www.bf-league.eu/index.php?opti … 6153#36153 pointless flame no one wants to read on bf-league. I guess we both have something to work on. Once again, I'm sorry.

Me and viita can have our own unoffical final you can record. I believe it would have been a nice montage.

In first, i was really surprised that this challonge has been run without problem.
That is sad to ruin the time of the organizer and the players implied in this tournament.
No end is deserved in this challonge.

However, if others challonges will be hosted, i will be in, not to win but to have some pleasure to play between us.

The tournament is still live just so everyone knows. So you can keep on having your matches until Vita finds an opponent.

Re: Aces High 1v1 Dogfight Cup 2016

Hanzee and me couldn't finish our match tonight. Every dogfight took like 10 minutes on avarage and most of the times we crashed into each other (which we didn't count as a point). After more than an hour, we were tied at 4-4. (3-1 , 1-3).

http://imgur.com/wUjYSO5
sorry for bad language on the screen smile Vita suggested to fly in the corsair which I hate.

After that we decided to play in the zero to determine the winner and ,of course, we crashed 2 times. Then we tried the Corsair and surprisingly we crashed again. Unfortunately Hanzee didn't have much time and had to leave meaning we had to postpone the last round.
