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!

Yes but people like me have no chance in winning a prize.

it's for fun

I will sign up just to support the tournament. Meaning I will play.

Yes I know but if there are prizes obviously we are going to want the prize correct?

Now there are going to be a few people that been playing quake the past couple of years that are going to dominate because they are good at it. I feel like I don't have that good of a chance at winning. Anyways I will sign up.

it's not about the prize... the prize is there for novelty

it's about enjoying the game and playing together, in an organized format. sure winning will be fun.. but think about this.. will you ever get a chance to play against some of these people if you don't sign up? how often do you see 2v2's played anymore? even in ql?

just trying to get some activity in .32 and have people remember that there's more than 2 gametypes... (duel/ctf)

I understand that.

So then sign up and register and all that :3

All there is are 12 player servers anymore, except for free for all and TDM. I miss the other servers

I'm surprised you guys haven't signed up yet. I thought you loved me...

I have seen 2v2 TDM in quake live.
