Occasionally we will be holding prize tournaments on XWIS.
Since the normal monthly ladder, and Hall of Fame caters for competitive quickmatch and tournament play we would like to make these occasional tournaments a bit different.

These tournaments should be fun, and as far as possible challenge other skills and tactics than those used in normal ladder games, in order to make them attractive to players of all skill levels.

If you have any creative ideas for tournaments that fit the above criteria please post them here.

land rush on heck (yr) with 6 players. On ra2 the ffa was totally **** since 2 players went through each time so all u had to do was kill someone by rushing.

Capture The Flag. Basically we pin a flag to aly's forehead then he drives around while we take shots at him, the first one to stop him running is the winner.

Or..... we could do a nice FFA on Death Trap, Defcon, Powder Keg, APB ll, or any other of the tried and tested FFA maps. :)

those are both good ideas I think the capture the flag would work out.

A random team tourny, where all players go random, could be both 1vs1 and/or 2vs2 (Maybe FFA aswell)

all nice ideas so far
I think 1v1s are probably the easiest to deal with but all these ideas can be considered.

A C&C Worldcup for clans of TS, RA2 and YR would be nice at the current time I think
You could base it on the same system that is being used in bobsleigh tournaments,
with multiple nation teams such as [USA1] [USA2] [USA3] [NED1] [NED2] [ENG1] [ENG2] etc.
taking the above list as an example; team USA1 would have the best US players and team USA3 the worst

I think that would be a good kickoff for the clanladders after the WOL > XWIS redirect
Also would it finally show us which country is delivering the best C&C talents ;)

Ok here is my idea seeing as lots of people i talked to dont like qm cause its over run with majorly good player and has quite a lot of cheaters . Why dont you have a custom match hall of fame too then you would have every1 being happy.
Idea 2 i had was 8 player ffa using infnatry units only but this wont work till someone can sort it out so we can play 8 player maps.
Idea 3 is more a fun idea where you race around an assault course as a race picking up crates for health etc the map is easy to make you have it not on short game and start off with a immortal yuri which choses what unit you want to use to the bit of the course you are on so on a water area a dolphin would be fast but weak armoured a aircarftcarrier would be strong but slow
hope ones of these you like

well i custom Hall of fame would be hard to set up and monitor , but the idea of these tournaments is to cater for those players
Perhaps you can expand a little on your crates race idea,

This sounds like fun, maybe you could attach the map , so that some players can try it out and see if the idea can work

what about 4 ppl ffg on a hill a building which u need to capture and hold it for like 5 mins then u win?

this also sounds like fun, maybe you can expand on this idea.

I think it is worth to fix the speed in tournaments to level 4, because otherwise most of the units can not be used appropriately. :(
Thin will make the game much more attractive!
