Possible Cup-style tournaments/events?

[AP0CALYPS3]

So I was looking at all these various leagues in the NW community (cool stuff  ) and I was thinking that there should be some form of invitational tournament or cup type things. Looking at European Football (Soccer) they have several things like that, such as the Champions League and random competition that occur kind of parallel to the various leagues, with invitations being given out due to teams performance in certain competitions. So I was thinking having some kind of proposing something of the sort and seeing what you guys thought:

1. My first idea I thought was to have a single-match invitational thing similar to the FA Community Shield where the winner of the NWL would take on the winner of the TNWL in maybe a best-of-3 series of first to 10 games over the course of a week or so.

2. My second idea was a FA Cup style knockout tournament, where any number of regiments can sign up with maybe the bigger boys of the community not getting in on the action til the later rounds to allow the smaller regiments to get some tournament experience and advance abit. Of course, drawbacks would be organizing that thing and setting up how it all works, which I am not gonna bother myself with x.x

3. My third idea was another knockout tournament, but being alot simpler than my previous idea. I was thinking more of just a straight up invitational tournament with invitations being given to regiments based on their performance in their respective leagues (kinda like the champions league). Ex: Invitations go out to the 1-3 Place of the TNWL, 1-3 place of League 1 of the NWL (if a regiment in 1-3 place of NWL already qualified, qualification would trickle down the list until it got to someone without an invitation), 1-2 place of Semi-Pro TNWL, 1-2 place of League 2 of NWL.

I know theres alot of leagues going on right now, but the way I am designing this is so itd happen "post-season", so after they all finish. Also I think a tournament like this should be kind of important is competitive NW is to survive as there needs to be something really centralizing the competitive scene without merging/removing leagues (The more competitions, the better you ask me). Tell me what y'all think!

1. I like, but what if the winner of TNWL and NANWL happen to be the same regiment? 

2. Could you go more in depth to who/what the "bigger boys of the community" are?

3. I like this aswell, but when you come to think of it, the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd places in both leagues would have to be the same considering both leagues consist of the same core regiments. 


So basically, your ideas overall are just coming up with multiple ways that NANWL and TNWL could coincide..... I like!

Good ideas, maybe the community can use them later season tnwl

[KillerShark]

Sounds good. I think the 3rd idea would work out the best, but the 2nd idea could be very interesting if all the regiments in the twitch event wanted to participate.

Coulda started these ideas when 12th/7thRF/2ndQF were undesputed

I had an idea that I can't be bothered to host myself as I am stopping after NWWC.

A NA/EU Duel League where players duel and do 5 rounds on EU and 5 rounds on NA, someones probably thought about it before but I think it'd be fun. This could ofc be done with lots of different things like 5v5s even NWWC.

Dueling is wonky with a 30 ping difference, it would be super wonky

It is the most balanced way to see who is better overall or even as a side (NA/EU).

[Tammo]

It would be between east coast and non mainland europeans everybody else would have stupid pings

[Sleek]

Europeans don't even wanna go on NA servers because the servers are all in the middle of the US

1.  Then you would use the exact same system that the FA Community Shield used which I referenced: "If the Premier League champions also won the FA Cup then the league runners-up provide the opposition."

2. Thats exactly what I was saying. I dont want to have to go define who the big boys are but itd most likely be based on league performance yata yata yata and I dont wanna have to do that.

3. Eh not entirely true. If the leagues are not run at the same time (which I hope they wont), youll have players leaving and switching regiments which can really mess up things. Regiments in NW are not the most stable thing, and the ones that have been stable, are few and far between.
