|SOG| Tournament Spring/Summer 2018 Edition - Info

Post by KeeRIeS »

Introduction:

Hello!

As SOG has been working pretty well nowadays, especially I have met many of you on our SOG servers almost every evening, there came an idea to my mind. I mean it has been coming to my mind for quite long time but now, as you're reading this short introduction to the main content of this post, the idea has grown up and now has even got its own moustache... So here I am at the end of this intro to present this idea, that will hopefully succeed being something great, something special and it will become high standard for next |SOG| tournaments in future. Argh, it was supposed to be a secret... So now I can say:

WE'VE GOT A TOURNAMENT








Details:

The tournament will be divided into 3 categories:
  • SOLO
  • Teams of 2 players (LL EQ only)
  • Teams of 3 players (Lethal EQ only)
Every player can be registered in every category, which means any of you has chance to become Master of the |SOG| Tournament Spring 2018 Edition by winning in all 3 categories.


Equipments:

a) SOLO category
In this category players can take whatever equipment they want.

b) Teams of 2 (max.) - Less Lethal
Every of the two players has to have only Less Lethal Primary and Secondary, which means pepperball or Less-lethal shotgun as primary weapon and taser as secondary weapon. The tactical EQ is up to the team's leader.

Only 1 player per a team is allowed to equip Optiwand.

c) Teams of 3 (max.) - Lethal
Disallowed EQ is: grenade launchers, pepperspray, Less-lethal shotgun, pepperball, taser, c2.
Players are allowed to take anything not mentioned as disallowed.
Only 1 player per a team is allowed to equip Optiwand.



Note: In every category the team can consist of maximum 1, 2 or 3 players but there is no minimum number of team members for any category, which means for example: you can register a team of 1 player in C category [Teams of 3 (max.)]



Maps:



There will be 3 maps per a team played in every category (applies to SOLO category, too)


a) SOLO category
  • Map from |SOG| Custom Maps Pack - weight of 2,0 played on TSS
    MAP 1: Creepy Hotel

  • Map from SWAT4 TSS - weight of 1,75 played on TSS
    MAP 2: Sisters of Mercy Hostel

  • Map from SWAT4 Vanilla - weight of 1,5 played on Vanilla
    MAP 3: Old Granite Hotel

    Maximum score: 525

b) Teams of 2 (max.) - Less Lethal
  • Map from |SOG| Custom Maps Pack - weight of 2,0 played on TSS
    Map 1: Genovese&Feinbloom

  • Map from |SOG| Custom Maps Pack - weight of 2,0 played on TSS
    Map 2: Art Center 1.0

  • Map from SWAT4 Vanilla - weight of 1,25 played on Vanilla
    Map 3: St. Michael's Medical Center

    Maximum score: 525

c) Teams of 3 (max.) - Lethal
  • Map from |SOG| Custom Maps Pack - weight of 1,5 played on TSS
    Map 1: Carvale Community Hospital

  • Map from |SOG| Custom Maps Pack - weight of 2,0 played on TSS
    Map 2: New Library

  • Map from SWAT4 TSS - weight of 1,75 played on TSS
    Map 3: Stetchkov Warehouse

    Maximum score: 525


Score:

In every category the final score is the score gained on each of 3 played maps. In case there are more than one player/team with the same score, time needed to end a map decides which player/team wins.

NEW! Note: In case of civilians or suspects that are hardly complaining, melee attacks is allowed. This applies especially to the 'Teams of 3 (max.) - Lethal" category, as tasers and pepper sprays are disallowed. In case of civilian or suspect being hurt or (in an extreme situation) killed, the penalty points will not be included to the final result. The Leader and Referee should then pay even more attention to taking a correct screenshot of final result that will include proper note in chatlog explaining the penalty score.


Prize:

The tournament is free from any fees,. It is played only just for fun, so there is no money/gift card prizes. However, to encourage you to take a part and to do your best, we offer you a special forum rank for the winners of every category. Moreover, in case a player wins every category of tournament they will have the rank of Master of |SOG|Tournament Spring 2018

9. If two players want to play using the same IP address, they should report such case when signing up and on setting a date for their tournament games with a referee. The referee should verify (i.e. using a Discord server) those players' identity to prevent one player playing as two different players. This applies especially (but not only) the SOLO category. More info will be provided to players in moment of reporting such a willingness.

10. Usual server rules applies to the servers while the tournament game is being played. Especially no cheating (wallhack, radar, auto-aim or any other mods and applications affecting the working of the game), bug and glitches using (this includes for example: shooting randomly to get a suspect out of the room; using C2 trick through walls - when the point of C2 usage is the suspect(s) localized behind the wall; climbing railings, boxes, tables to avoid being seen by suspects in predictable locations). C2 trick (opening the door and then detonating) is allowed only in SOLO Category. Breaking of any of them might result in penalty points or even breaking the tournament game and the need of playing the game again or in extreme situation even being disqualified from the tournament.

11. The referee as well as registered spectators are not allowed to comment in chat any gameplay of the Team. Also, the participants should only communicate with each other, ignoring the presence of referee and spectators. Breaking this rule might result in removing the spectators out of the server, the need of replaying the tournament game or even being disqualified from the tournament.

NEW! 12. The last non-played map in every category by a team can be played only after the rest of teams have already played 2 out of 3 maps to be played. This is to have the last round deciding on the final ranking for the Tournament.

NEW! 13. Team Leaders for each category have to set a date for Tournament Games with the correct Referee for the map they want to play. Only one map can be played at one time by a team. Therefore, Team Leader has to check who is the team's Referee for the map (link) and after that, contact the Referee. The date has to be set AT LEAST 24 HOURS BEFORE CHOSEN TIME.

Enrollment started

Post by KeeRIeS »

Dear Team Leaders!

I am glad to inform you that you can now enroll your teams for Tournament Games. To do so, please contact a Referee that is assigned to your Team for a chosen map you want to play. Remember: you can play 2 maps at once only in special cases when the Referee agrees (mostly only when it was difficult to set a date for a longer than usual time). This is to have the competition as long as possible and for you not to be tired on the second map.

Your Referees:

Hello Dear Teams and Teams' Leaders!

Thanks to our |SOG|Management (special thanks to |SOG|Sander) we will have access to 2 passworded TSS and Vanilla servers for tournament's purposes. We decided the servers will be also free to use for training purposes as well as for tournament games itself.

Team Leaders will be given the password after prior making reservation (preferably via Discord PM). In case, there are 2 teams willing to do a training, the one that made reservation earlier has priority - please respect it in such situation.

You can make reservations from now on, keeping in mind the server will be up probably from today's afternoon (GMT).

Servers will work with Vanilla and TSS Maps listed in |SOG| Tournament Info Thread. For Custom Maps Training, use the Custom server. Tournament servers will be working w/o Jessica.

Cheers and good luck!

What to do in case of a bugged gun

Post by KeeRIeS »

Explanation what we do in case of Gun Bug

In case, the mission in completed in the Tournament Game but there are still guns missing, the Referee notes the time when the last civ/sus was arrested (the info about completed mission appears) and all the TOCs are done. The Team keeps looking for the missing gun(s).

When the Team finds any gun, the Referee overwrites the noted time.

If the gun is still missing, the Referee end round manually and the last overwritten time is the result time.

Any visible and found gun has to be picked up by a Team Member.


IMPORTANT NOTE:
Please also try to book the dates and time of the Tournament Games with advance with your Referee. Remember the Team that has set their date earlier will have priority and the availability of Referees and Servers are both limited.

For clearance:

Tournament Game clock starts exactly when the mission starts. Referees are reconnecting to avoid being counted in to the final score (as spectator you are counted in as a dead officer).According to the methods of time measurement, please make sure all Team's Members REMOVED/RENAMED ScriptedVO for both Vanilla and TSS BEFORE JOINING THE TOURNAMENT GAME AND START PLAYING W/O WAITING FOR REFEREE TO RECONNECT
See how to do it! (link)
