Clash of the Platoons (Episode I)

Post by xX1AcidRain1Xx »

Calling out to all TX/G Platoon members!


CLASH OF THE PLATOONS (EPISODE I)

Today, I bring to you a battle royal, where brothers will take arms against the other, 1st Platoon against 2nd Platoon in the new epically designed CLASH OF THE PLATOONS (episode I) to claim the prize!
This tourney evaluates both Platoons for their stealth, team work, and humiliation abilities. That's right! This month's tourney will be for the following game modes

Search and Destroy
Capture the Flag
Demolition


These games will be held and scored according to certain actions performed throughout the game.

Individual Scoring Rubric
Universal Scoring
Applies to all game modes unless otherwise specified

Ways to Earn Points
For every 10 Kills in any game mode = 1 point for that player
1 Riot Shield Kill = 1 point for that player
Earn and USE a moab = 3 points to that player per kill they get with that moab
Completing game objectives such as planting, defusing, and capturing/returning a flag.
Kill an enemy with a care package = 5 points

Ways to Lose Points
Be killed by a throwing knife = you lose 1/2 of a point
Be killed by a Riot Shield = you lose 1/2 of a point
Be killed by a falling care package (decoy or non decoy) = -5 points

PLEASE NOTE! THESE POINTS ONLY MATTER IF YOUR PLATOON WINS THE TOURNEY!!!

We will plan for three days of duels, the first date for these duel is....
THURSDAY, MAY 31st, 2012 *7:30 pm GMT*

** Time for event may be reconsidered if attendance is poor**

The Platoon that wins the majority of these matches will be crowned victor of Demolition

The Winning Platoon
This is decided on by who has won the most matches total, tiebreakers are only used if we reach an even amount of wins per platoon per mode, The Prize will most likely be 400 MP to the Top 4 in the winning Platoon will receive the Microsoft points equally, if less the four, it will be handed out as equally as possible, if not, the remainder will be saved for future tournaments.
They may also be an award system where at the end of the tournament we can give certain title (as in signuature titles/awards, nothing to change their position in this group) that exclaim things like "MVP of the _____tournament" which will be placed the the official Class of the Platoons Episode I video, where I will have game footage, but I wont give it all away just yet

RULES
Mostly likely we will play them online even if random people join in (that is if we dont have six on six), it would test these members on their capabilities not only with those who they are familar with but those who they aren't. If someone from a platoon wants to join in mid-process, they will have to wait for someone else to leave or for non-txg-platoon member to rage quit.

If you aren't in a Platoon yet, try to show more motivation in game and on the forums and contact some of us once in a while so we can consider it

THANK YOU AND GOOD LUCK!

Sounds awesome fun bro, shame I can't make it, i think 8 pm is the latest I can come at any time, have fun though :xD:

I have 1 concern though. If we get 1 point for returning flags, won't it encourage people to camp by the flag and wait for people to try and take it, as it's easier and is almost as rewarding

Like I said it was bound to change times, it's now at 6pm GMT (same day). Also about the CTF thing, that is the point of this tournament, to evaluate players based on their abilities. If someone is lame enough to constantly try to take the flag without killing the camper, fine by me. There are suppose to hunt down the camper in a strategic way.
