Calm down guys, you aren't authors writing books. We play star wars, everything we type sounds gay automatically.

I'll hit Danny up.

Actually I'm planning on publishing my first work "The Nuances and Etiquette of Star Wars Republic Commando". Expected release date is May of 2014.

You can go ahead and put me down as a 6.

I vouch for this guy. I'm going to rate you an 11. Wouldn't be fair if you could have a full team of 4.

I'd like to play...its just hard for me to get long periods of playtime, but could be quite possible on the weekends.

HEY, LETS RATE PEOPLE ON DECIMALS ON A TEN POINT SCALE.

Multiply by 10 rather than use decimals please. Otherwise I'd like to be ranked a 3.14159.

Thanks

Also, Sort alphabetically on the spreadsheet. It's much nicer if we don't play Where's Waldo before a match.

Let's keep the spam minimal and posts on topic. Raiderx demands order.

Alright, spoke to a few of the voters and we agreed on letting captains gather their own teams as long as they keep their team within the point limit that has been set at 13 for their team of 4. This means you won't be forced to play with people you don't like, and can even choose to play with friends as long as the points add up right. We will begin putting teams together on the 18th, and then the first 'test' week of this will begin on the 20th. After that wins/losses will be resetting every 2 weeks, allowing for a new champion at the end of each period. This also means (for the few that had concerns) that you can be on a new team if you would like.

Team captains will consist of, but are not limited to:
Dever
Jones
Lebros
Deity
Orvy
Dominator
Gletch

Message me to get added to the list, we have several more people whom I've spoken with that can be captains after winter break. Also note that (you can check my math) you need to have at least one player that is a 4 or higher on your team to add up to 13. The highest ranked player on your team will be the captain, so it is required for captains to be a 4 or higher.

After the first 'test week' of trying out this whole thing we will make adjustments that need to be made and kind of see what works and what doesn't.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but are the captains going to assemble their own teams individually, instead of a draft? Will the captains try to "recruit" players? Do players try to sell their skill to the captains? Players will have their choice of team to join if multiple captains are recruiting them? Will the test week teams be final (with players allowed to ask to switch or w.e) except in the case of a catastrophic system failure or one team having unfair advantage (aka pariah)?

Also, I might be able to get a mic at some point in the not-too-distant future.

Good thing Jones is a captain or else he'd starve to death trying to sell his skill.

*side note* Is this as of right now? Cause if it's a cumulative list of rankings, I think I should at least be a 3... I mean I did beat most of the 3's on the list in 1v1's and some of the 4's... but that was back when I cared for this game.

I'd love to get together and do some 1v1's with other people, and some scrims if you guys need me. It's been a while though, don't expect too much.

we went through everyone individually and came to a concensus based on a number of factors. There are players ranked lower than others who could, potentially, beat the higher ranked player 1v1. We took various things into account though when rating and took the mean of our input to create the current ratings.

You lack in team play and are subpar in objective based games. Sorry not sorry

Don't be offended by your rating. If you feel like you should be rated higher, you'll have an opportunity to prove it.

Regarding the tourney, when will it start? Or has it already..?

If you paid attention AT ALL you'd know this.

Yes Cryo, captains will now be picking teams on their own time, messaging players to make sure they agree to play for them. I'm not entirely certain what you mean by selling skill to the captain, but captains will only be allowed to have 13 points on their team of 4. For example Dever's team could consist of Dever[5], Morph[4], Hikaru[3], and Jwap[1]. Adding up to 13.
After captains get their team figured out I'll be posting a list of competing teams here. Do not worry if you're not picked, there will be plenty of subbing. There is a limited number of captains so not everyone can be on a team.
Haha, thanks Blitz, again team picking starts on the 18th and the matches start on the 20th.
