Lol, thanks for putting me on your list Potorikan but I a**ure you it won't be me up there in the top 3 unless I could sneak my way through.
There's way better duelers on that list then I am, at least at the moment so I suspect top 3 will be.
Phant, Kali, Rico
But there is a lot of great duelers on that list, I suspect there will be upsets.
Good luck to the rest of you duelers.

Nah, this is different. This thread was created to get people pumped up for the upcoming tournament. Kinda like how one would make fight predictions in UFC matches. Remy and ric0 are gonna be shoutcasting (LMFAO) these matches I think. Should make for an extremely entertaining event. Nonetheless, my vote wasn't even on the ladders. ForceOfGod would beat everyone of us with his Jedi Mind Tricks. Guy's in Beast Mode 24/7

Well I've played you all enough to know who's who, there's no beating around the bush.
When I said upsets, players like me, weaponized, wopr, sick, D-capt, Hcruix, a lot of us that could go either way, win or loose. But when it comes down to who's gonna win, its pretty set n stone unless someone is just having a off day, that's when upsets happen.

Well.. I could lower the quality a bit and still achieve the same amount of space. It won't go down that much, its still better then most video's I have seen on youtube, also sound is included, could disable that and put some custom music on it later when editing =)?

If it says till the 17th I would believe by the end of tonight is the lastnight. That would be my guess but maybe not.
Its like when a bill is due u have until the 17th to pay for it. If Paw could get someone to challenge him or anyone then he could still make top 16.

Also you guys might wanna see what Wopr is up to, I know he was gonna try and livestream as well but I know he was busy so don't know if he got a chance to get all the stuff together.
But its good so many people wanting to livestream, Wopr just wanted to make sure this all goes as plan and falls through.
Venom if your quality is outstanding I say record the finals and just let the other guys livestream everythang.
So when the finals come someone can livestream and Venom can record the finals then post it in the Frag Vid section for future reference to newer players as well as us.

lol in the finals you should have 2 ppl livestream each spectate a player and somehow embed it into a page so you can see both POVs at the same time, that'd be pretty cool, duno if thats possible though
edit: found a random livestreamed show on ustream.com, couldn't this be used? It also gives an option to embed a chat

Quick Question about shoutcasting: How is the shoutcasting being done? Is WOPR recording your voices thru ps3 sound output or Ventrilo /something similar. Im sure everyone knows about the glitch where the players can hear spectators until the player dies so if the shoutcaster is in the server casting and WOPR is recording voices thru ps3 sound output isnt there a chance that the caster could accidentally give away info (timing, location, etc) to the duelers? I havent been keeping up with things so if this was already discussed....my bad.

I am planning to do a livestream as well as recording the matches at the same time. I should be able to record the shoutcast audio as well seperately, which could be added in to the final vid with editing. We did some preliminary tests using Xfire for shoutcasting, and it should work out well. I just need to calibrate the volume of PS3 footage vs xfire voices to get equal volume for both. Shoutcasters should be spectating as well, maybe one watching each player. I will probably be toggling between players, focusing mainly on the dueler who is leading. Playing around with settings on Justin.tv, I've tweaked settings to allow for good quality/good framerate.
Are all matches wanting to be livestreamed? Or just the Finals?

When I was watching the shoutcasting from quakecon 2009 I noticed how the spectator mainly focused on the one who had the momentum (basically map control).

Yeah if there is a no show then the player that shows gets an auto win....if neither player shows then the person in the losers bracket that would have faced the loser of that match gets an auto win.
People not showing are not going to stop this from proceeding.
I individually PM'd each person last week and everyone currently in the top 16 did say they intended to play so I'm not expecting a bunch of no-shows....but if that happens we'll deal with it as it comes.
@killinugood - send me a PM with what you want to do. If it takes me putting up a quick and dirty tourney page with a few html tables that contain embedded content (the live stream) or something I think I could do that...lets try to hook up sooner than later so we can test it out....lemme know.

This thread was made merely to get players and spectators hyped up for the event. Players who get praise will usually get hyped up and bring much more action to the table.

There's the difference that EU players are used to playing on US pings, US players aren't used to playing EU hosts most of the time. I once got lucky enough to beat a top dueller on Eu host.. I don't count myself better than him though

he also went on to say, if anyone is willing to give up their spot whatever money he wins, will go to them.

lol i think its amazing 16 ppl are even playing in a tourney... im not bringing the doubt cloud back into town im just saying its not like there were ppl fighting to get into this tourney or something and im sure a few ppl will be no shows.
anyhow to answer the same question your responding to: i would suggest livestreaming the whole thing, obviously not every match.. matches need to be played at the same time or this thing will take a month. but livestream the matches with the good players playing. |
We also need to show some love for the other players as well. Give some other decent players some TV time :) I really want this tournament enjoyable to all participants and its viewers. :>

I got a question, Wopr said we could start playing the matches the week prior to the finals on the weekend.
So when is this thang officially on its way and when 2 players decide their gonna play to get in the first rounds how are we gonna get the word out to get it brodcast.
Was just wondering cause I remembered Wopr saying the first set of matches could be played early or something like that.

bah ppl like bumrush and weezy should be in the tourney, the ladder was a joke cmon really how many real matches took place? im guessing around 5 maybe. im all for ladders, but a ladder that is anything but active shouldnt keep 2 top players out of a tourney

whoa whoa...Paw asked to be able to play in it and it was voted that he
could enter but the same rules apply to him as everyone else. He
didn't just get a golden ticket to be in it...he knew that up front.
I would like to see the top players here as much as anyone else. There
was enough time for anyone to join and get in the top 16...But these
guys CHOSE not to...and now what at the last minute I'm supposed to
boot someone off the list? I won't do that.
Honestly I don't like the idea but if Paw or whoever can get
everyone on the current tourney list to agree to let him sub-in and
then find someone willing to give up their spot I won't stop it...but
I'm not going to replace people that played to get to the top
16...or make it bigger and make myself more work....and yes pretty much everyone in the top 16 (with a few
exceptions) played ladder matches to get there.
You're right the ladders didn't explode with action but there was certainly a lot more activity than ever before....so it was small success, but it's better than a failure.
As far as Bum goes this is the first time I have seen any interest from him....the day that ranking closed...idgi...I'm not sure what you guys want me to do here....this has been posted for a loooong time.

i honestly didn't know the criteria to get in to the tournament. All I ever saw was a thread titled "iAM having a tourney soon" and I just a**umed that it wasn't happening any time soon. Then, I saw this thread on my way to work this morning and was like "WTF?". I'm also interested in joining. I may not get top 3, but i think i can get top 6 at the very least

In case my other reply wasn't clear enough I just want to point out that non-active ladders had no part in keeping Bum or Paw people out of the tourney....it seriously would've taken a couple of minutes of their time to PSN a message to me or incremental, phantaci etc to have a ladder match...play it...record it on the ladder...done!
I even made a point to make a post on Friday to remind people to check...not sure what else I could have done. In a matter of a few days Rico went from just joining the ladder, on the bottom. to 4th...but other people that have been there for weeks couldn't manage it.

There is an announcement thread at the very top of the page that says "iamgaming 1v1 tourney" but yeah I guess having another thread that said "soon" could be confusing. The way we did it was to have the top 16 people on the duel ladders as the entries. The cut off date to get into the top 16 was today so it's too late now but we will be doing more tourneys in the future so you will get another chance. Next time I'll put a date on the main tourney announcement maybe that will help.
I hope you guys understand that we have to keep moving forward and complete this. It may not be perfect but we can't stop and try to re-organize now...I think doing that would kill it...gotta just push forward and hope everyone learns from their mistakes here...we've all made some.

im not argueing that they didnt have plenty of warning, for some reason they didnt show enough intrest and do what they needed to do, my point is basically that this isnt some super official corporation or tourney, basically something to excite the players and provide some good entertainment for the viewers.. hopefully helping the game in the end... so im just saying for the viewers sake unless this is a 1 day scheduled up tourney that it would work to have bum and paw has subs for no shows or even let them play eachother for a seed or if someone was willing to sit out... this is for the viewers sake.. having a tourney with ppl like remy rico phantaci kali these are very well known duelers and bumrush and weezy are top players aswell id just like to see them in because it makes it even more intresting.. for the viewer atleast i dont play so i can see a players point of view being diffrent then mine.
i brought up the ladders because those people arent really doing anything, all the wins i ever see say forfeit next to them, its great that some people stepped up and got some matches in after you announced the tourney.. but how many of the ppl in the tourney didnt even played a ladder match?
edit: holy ****wow.. just checked out the ladder and weezy is 2-0 with a challenge issued, thats a better record then 8 of the contestants

Lol, Dead, no offence to Bum or Paw. U wanna know what Paw did, this is what he did, he challenged peeps till he made it to 16th seed then he stopped, made the ladders even more inactive and a player below him moved up and kicked him off 16th spot. Its no ones fault but his, he should have seeded way up the ladder to keep this from happening. Its his fault, bottom line. As far as Bum, I cant beleive he never saw this or Paw and Phant didnt tell him details.
Just saying this is the best stab anyone has made at anythang for this game and Wopr has done a hell of a job. Not saying u was stabbing him. To me I wish Paw and Bum was in there along with Maiden as well. I wanna see the top players play this. Id even set out if it was just top players but I did work to get up there considering I did challenge 8 times. Paw just didnt show much interest after he got to 16th.

i know woprs made a good job n put a lot of effort in, but the ladders were so inactive i think it wasnt the way to go for seeding, if theres ANY top players who do legitly wanna play, paw,bum, maiden etc i say let them in it, i just think there will definitely be no shows n also the more top players involved the better
