Like the byqwtourneys in the past the trickery.qw team is running a 16 team (2 players per team) weekend tournament on November 13th (Saturday) and November 14th (Sunday). The past tournaments interesting structure has been retained and consists of group stages on the Saturday followed by single elimination on the Sunday.

This time around we've decided to change the group stages to 2x 2v2v2v2 Team Deathmatch and 2x 2v2v2v2 Runes. The winner of each game receives 4 points, 2nd place receives 3 points, 3rd place receives 2 points and 4th place receives 1 point. These points are then totalled up so we can seed teams for the second half. If teams are tied on score we will use frag difference to decide seed.

Regarding runes: please ensure you download the runes pak file, extract it to quakeroot/runes/ and bind a key to impulse 100 (activate rune), also impulse 98 (drop rune) and impulse 95 (grapple) if you want an advantage to those who don't bother to read these things :)

In the second half the single elimination tournament begins with the 16 teams playing a 2v2v2v2 (team deathmatch). The top two teams in each game will make it through to the next round where we change to 2v2/1v1 best of 3 (team deathmatch) games all the way to the final (see rules page for details).

Please join #trickery.qw (QuakeNet) on the tournament days for the latest up-to-date information. This will be the tournaments official channel for the weekend. Note one player per team must be in #trickery.qw ten minutes before their matches start, see rules for information. Also ensure you have all the files required - runes and tqwtourney maps
