Journals
Need more teams to sign up for the 6v6 cup, there are already some promising teams signed up and allot of decent skilled teams which could perhaps battle it out in a ranking tournament after the group stage is over.
If you think that running this cup over clanbase is a bad idea, please write it down in this journal. Could be that some "mixes" would like to signup but lack the motivation to make a CB clan to be able to do that.
Depending on the succes of this cup RAGE-GAMING could be interested in organizing another 6v6 cup with prizes (don't expect anything crazy). But something to get the 6v6 scene active.
1 channel to gather the 6v6 community, join up and lets gather some ideas.

but this is going to
Yes, it did.
same amount of players will play, but you'll meet only with half of it
GREAT THING YOU'RE DOING, CONGRATULATIONS
CB & ESL will follow any trend that's going on, especially if a large usergroup from CF and some important figures start acting on it. Nobody likes to community to get split-up that's why the 6v6 scene would recommend making that seasonal switch for online & offline competitions.
& Let's not forget that the 5v5 format was FORCED while a 6v6 tournament was still active.
hf being disagreed by cb,esl,cc,aef and any serious tournament- dont bother reply back
Like allot of people mentioned no need to torture the whole community for 5% or less that actually do go to these lans.
I understand you want to make a statement, but this is just the wrong way.
Try making a decent proposal.. & i'm not talking: 'ey let's do 6v6'.
I mean make a plan, a real one. A plan that has to be considered by the admins.
I'm willing to help, I've had an idea for 6months now.. but with this discussion going on it will just sound as another flame to 5v5 which is not my intention.
6v6 is the better format & is without any doubt better for ET's LAN future.
5 % of the community playing on lans, makes everybody willing to play this game. I think everybody here likes the LAN, even the players that don't go (like me).
I never went to a lan, but still I can see why Krosan (& others) have a valid argument in the whole 5v5 vs 6v6 discussion. Being a bit understanding, could help you into getting a real discussion.
This is just the 1st step of gathering people with the knowledge and creative ideas on how to get 6v6 started, nothing yet about getting 5v5 removed in any way.
It isn't impossible to convince them you know.
When you just start a "new" 6on6 community outside the 5v5.. you have to realise that this will divide the community into 6v6 players & 5v5 players. That's not a good thing, I'm sure you know that. You are doing exactly the same thing as you blame the admins for, making a decision for the community without consulting "the rest".
Sounds to me like you are willing to get some kind of revolution..? Small people against the powerful?
On the other hand, I dont agree with Lazio on season switching idea, it would be wrong to think that switching from 5on5 to 6on6 and back 3 times a year could work, as I already said in some other discussion, what if LAN happens to be in middle of season? Teams would have to choose whether they want to pracc 5on5 or 6on6 + they would need to face situations where somebody would basicly get kicked because there is no room for 6th in LAN.
I'm also not defending clanbase or anyone else by my arguments, I'm just saying there is a better way to defend your statement.
There hasnt been more lans since 5on5 came.
And btw, read the column comments before you come here lol
what lans?
all of u noobs been talking bout these new lans for year now and still i cant see one fucking lan announcement
Dickhead.
Next time u argue bout shit, maybe answer
What the hell is wrong with you anyway? Insulting random people on a website? If you have a more serious problem, I would be glad to talk about that too.
on topic, if you wouldn't know yet, i'm fucking supporting 6v6.. 5v5 isn't even close to enjoyable (not as spec, not as player). But I don't like the way some are pointing it out, that's my discussion.
And about the lans, Krosan stated somewhere that there might be some lans coming in 2011. Untill this year is over, I won't talk bad about him.. he made a promess - give him the chance to keep it.
And what happens if there aren't any lans anymore for ET? Who will you follow than?
No! We are just - by our own democratic will! - going back to where we were at.. without the admins interfering, forcing a format nobody wanted, saying that we are too stubborn for a change and hence forcing it on us. Everybody will follow and we will complete our mission successfully. SIX ON SIX will be back!
We are not willing to play something much less enjoyable for the sake of a small group of players which go to LAN every year. TosspoT is saying that it was a nightmare to host CIC6 in the 6on6 format. Of course hosting a LAN means fatigue to the organizers, what did the think?! The truth why we are now doomed to play in 5on5 is: TosspoT doesn't care about ET anymore. No, he only cares about the money - else he wouldn't invite COD players to join us on LAN. We needed to adapt to 5on5 only because the COD scene plays 5on5! That is ridiculous!
It is only for the sake of TosspoT's wallet we are now playing 5on5. The people which are not with us yet need to finally realize that. Everything else is a made up story! A blatant lie! We do not need to listen to lies!
Discussions with the likes of Krosan and TosspoT have shown we can achieve nothing by just plain talking to them, we not to act!
Let us get ET to its former prime, to what it was! Let us abandon the 5on5 format.
Nearly nobody likes 5on5. We all want 6on6 back!
Let's switch to 6on6 by our own democratic will!
on a side note, you're totally right
And the one in the middle above each profile.
When raza was still owner from xfire, no single ad.
After tosspot became the owner, it went from a nice peaceful community website to a commercial website.
I can understand the banner(s) from i3d for the hosting, but further not.
And flash banners are a crime.
