M.I.A. Quake 3 Tournaments

Majorly Insane Amateurs is hosting their first set of Quake 3 Arena tournaments set to begin in September. The tournament includes two gametypes: 1v1 Duel Cup and 2v2 TDM Cup. Both tournaments will have their branches of physics in standard VQ3 and CPM modes. You may sign up for both the Duel and TDM Cups, but it is not wished upon the admins for players to sign up in both modes. The rules are as follows:

All matches before semifinals and finals in both the Lower and Upper
brackets are to played in a Best Of 3 Games format, while the semifinals
and finals are to be played in a Best Of 5 Games format.

The higher seeded player chooses heads or tails, then the lower seeded player types the following command his/her console, "/callvote random 2". The winner of the coin toss eliminates a map first, then waits for the other player to eliminate. The maps are then picked with the winner of the toss picking, then vice-versa. In the semifinals, and Grand Final, there is no elimination method.

The tournament bracket is in a Double-Elimination format. If you lose in any match aside from the Grand Final, you go to the losers bracket for a second chance. After that, you are done with the tournament.

There is to be absolutely NO hacking, no spamming (to a degree.. if you hit a movie shot, it's ok), and no disrespect to ANYONE in or out of the server. Good sportsmanship is REQUIRED in order to play in this tournament!

lol 2v2 tdm, kill someone and camp the shit out of the dead body +1

It's not freeze TDM. It's default, old-fashioned pickups. So you spawn, gear up, kill, die, respawn.

Although oddly enough it seems 2k10 TDM is populated more often since school resumed.
