If we don't have to be available for every match, I'm in. Unfortunately my internet at home isn't reliable enough to guarantee anything, but I will join if I can.

We can use the ticket system like before.
I can host a EU server and rent a VPS in US (recommendations ?)
To make sure everyone gets a chance to play and win we can run it for 24hrs or so.
I really want this to happen, since it didn't last year.

Add an optional $5 entry fee to attract the sharks out there =P
Say if you win the tournament and didn't pay the fee, the $ prize only goes down to the next-highest player who paid in maybe? Idk, it might be fun
Anyhoo I hope it's CS, kitteh is excited

Im throwing in 20$ at least.
Does 19-20th of Dec work for everyone ?

If it's not retro only, then I'd love to get another blast of this cheeky motherfucker.
I've had the Source version in various stages of completeness for years and it'd be great to get a feel for it again.

^ indeed me too dim, we should play 
Besides twhl maps, I feel at least SOME of the cardinal de maps should be included--dust2, inferno, nuke--, for some balance in the rotation. [/2cents]
Also, I had no idea vertigo was an original map, lol!

No I don't.
Maybe samurai_jack_mini_map_ultimate?
Who am I kidding
But seriously, out of all my crap CS maps, I never seen awp_2tabere_v2 played. It's not that bad. Good for a few quick shots.

Its Friday and Saturday (19-20th)
Its simple 1 kill = 1 ticket, more tickets more chances to win.
Maybe adding extra tickets for plants/defuses would be more fun.
I am thinking of making 3 prizes that will be randomed out after the tourney, so more chances to win something.

Castle Rimrook plays ok. A lot of little places to hide and such. Though never played too seriously so I'm not sure if it's right for this. If someone else wants to check it out and give a second opinion, that'd be great.

Maybe uncle Ruf can throw it on the practice server Rimmeh
CSDM would be fun too. (maybe you could split it 12 hours of dm and 12 of defusal, or is the server a pita to setup?) Also, do you plan on adding any bots to the mix?
If you make at purely a dm sever, you should really add one of the iceworld maps to the mix

I'm having some fun practicing for the tourney. The only thing that's hard to get used to is you can shoot through every wall, so there is a lot of wallspamming to adjust to
Ruf please use a fun server mod if you can, that shows on the screen when you take damage and give it, and has those audible killstreak messages

Well whatever mod they are using at 192.223.29.61:27015 is really good; It simplifies the buy menu and shows incoming/outgoing HP damage. And yeah, CSDM is ungodly fun, especially in a tight map like fy_snow/iceworld
