*Full Thread Update & Sign ups due 22/08/2022*

This is the main thread for the tournament series that was announced on stream a few weeks back.

Here is the VoD (starts from 1:03:40) where we discuss both with Tardet/Pieter and some questions from chat. Bear in mind that anything shown here was placeholder while the tournament is organised in the background.

Shhh Heri & rikkert

More details will be coming out about this soon. But for those of you who doesn't know, there is a link to the VoD in the post.

Feel free to have any discussions etc. if you like although there isn't a ton to talk about. Start date is still slated for June/July as we are still finishing up with EIC.

Just so everyone is up to speed, I have decided to put this on a temporary hold to start after the summer break as we have a lot of stuff already done/going on.

Instead of July looking at an August start.
Title: Re: [ECS] European Challenger Series - Season 1 *November Update*
Post by: John Price on November 15, 2021, 02:18:04 pm
What? An update?!?! Outrageous!

For those of you don't know during the months of July-September I was in and out of the hospital frequently with multiple health issues. Since then been trying to focus on myself, moved into a new place which has less traveling etc. involved. Few weeks ago finally my blood tests are finally coming back clear so I can actually go back outside, get my vaccine and get back to drinking with the lads!

Once again, plans are all still in place and we will be looking for more to join the team. If potentially interested hit me up on steam or PM me.

Hey Guys - I know I don't update this as much unless people message me directly and I do apologise, getting this ready whilst also completely revamping the ruleset for EIC in my spare time gives me a lot to do these days!

Happy to say, that we are almost ready to release everything related to this tournament/circuit and also give a start date/signup date at the same time. I want to try and make sign ups for this go live in July, once sign ups for EIC are closing so not too far off. I am sure most of you (looking at you French NW community!) would prefer not to have things like this start in the middle of the summer anyway  ;D

Rather than ONLY having the old guard of people I have known since the dawn of time in MM/NW release as admins I wanted to come to FSE and ask if anyone would like to potentially join the admin team. What this would mean:

1. Input on the rulesets, tournaments included as part of the ECS brand/circuit itself
2. Assistance with bringing in new players/teams
3. Depending on level of admin (regular admin or a moderator/head mod) assisting myself with setting up the circuit itself in the beginning (a lot to do as only 1 or 2 people!)

What I am most definitely looking for, is someone to assist with the stats etc. At the moment I would like to be able to create a rating system kind of similar to HLTV rating 2.0 for Counter Strike. Once we have that planned out I can automate that entire process by just copy pasting players in game stats into the DB which would then do all of this for us. Eventually if this is something people like we could even create some basic scripts that can output server logs into these stats/ratings so would be completely automated. Also means we can easily convert stats from other tournaments such as NWWC etc. into this rating system without being borked. But would need to test a system like this once the tournament actually goes live so would need 1 or 2 pairs of hands in the meantime. But if stats are not your thing, but want to help out with the next big GF tournament series in NW then please don't hesitate to DM me.

I appreciate that this isn't a ton of info to go off just yet but by all means feel free to DM me if any questions or interested in joining the team on either Steam or FSE!

Bench warmer? The reason why I want to play league 2 is so I don't need to sit on the fucking bench!!!
Also Alf and Fietta are a better bench duo tbh

Hey guys!

So as previously mentioned, I was waiting for EIC Sign Ups to go live before I give specific dates etc. for the start of this. The notion was always to have sign ups for this go live around the start date of EIC.

So for now, expect sign ups for this tournament to go live on 22nd of August. 22/08/2022. Wouldn't be much point of doing it sooner than that due to Summer holidays anyway.
