ET Reborn LAN Schedule

With two weeks remaining to the LAN it is time to announce the LAN schedule.

LAN Schedule

In the LAN schedule made, we tried to maximize the number of matches each team has to play. At the same time we have tried to let each match day finish at a reasonable time. Further, in previous LANs the main reason for the delays were caused by the set ups. Therefore, we've decided to give teams one hour (in most cases) to set up their PCs before the start of each match.

The LAN schedule can be found here: ET Reborn LAN Schedule

3on3 Schedule

After many requests we have decided to play the 3on3 tournament on Friday only. Both group stage and play offs will be finished on the first day of the LAN. As can be seen in the schedule, the 3on3 ET Reborn LAN will feature a total of 14 teams. These teams will be divided into two groups of seven. Each team has to play 6 matches in the group stage. The matches in the group stage will be best of 1. This implies that draws are possible! The maps in this stage of the tournament will be forced.

All the 14 teams will advance to the 1/8 finals. The number 1 in both groups will be automatically qualified for the quarter finals. The other teams will fight each other in a BO3 match to decide what team will advance to the quarter finals. The ranking in the group stage matters, because the opponent you will face in the 1/8 finals will depend on your ranking! More information about this can be found in the schedule. The 8 remaining teams in the quarter finals will play another 3 matches to determine the top 8 rankings.

Please note that the 3on3 play offs are single elimination only. Nevertheless, with this set up we tried to maximize the number of matches for each team.

6on6 Schedule

The 6on6 LAN will find place on Saturday and Sunday. Like in the 3on3 format, we have tried to maximize the amount of matches each team is playing. The 6on6 tournament will feature a total of 11 teams. Teams will be divided into two groups of 4 and one group of 3. Each match in the group stage of the 6on6 tournament will be a BO2 match. Please note that draws are possible. To save time, the team with the highest seed will have to start attacking in the "longer" maps like Supply and sw_goldrush_te. The 6on6 group stage will find place on Saturday.

A total of 8 teams will advance to the play offs. Each number one, two and three in group A and B will be automatically qualified for the play offs. In group C only the top two teams will advance to the play offs.

The lowest 3 teams will play against each other in a Consolation tournament on Saturday night. This will consist of a group of 3, where each team faces each other once. The play offs with the 8 top teams will find place on Sunday and are played in a double elimination format.

FIFA or Poker tournament

Additionally to the ET tournament we will organize either a poker or FIFA15 tournament. More information about this will be published later. This tournament will most likely find place on Friday night.

A special thanks to United Kingdom Merlinator who helped us with the schedule.

Is this the final decision?

Voting for poker, too many people are already experienced with Fifa15 :)
We are always open for suggestions and we will change the schedule if needed. I don't think there's much to change about it anymore.

Text has been edited about 3on3 format.

I reserve a seat for poker
[*] toxic's schedule
The two schedule are very much alike. In the end it's up to us to decide which schedule suits best. We have used the input of both toxic and MerlinatoR.

Don't feed :(

coming to rekt some noobs in fifa15
One hour for setup? What are u doing here, ive never been on lan and never will be, but whats the point of that long scheduled Time for settings. I mean, I understand 30 min , but one hour?

Can somebody Tell me about It?
It takes just 1 person to delay a match dramatically. To reduce the risk of getting extra delays we implemented 1 hour setup time so we have it covered.
Parent
Most of the time, you gotta wait for someone of your team who suddenly went missing (smoking, drinking, doing w/e but what he is supposed to do)..
Parent
lol ever been to lan? :D in any game? :D
Parent
That explains everything.
Parent
I can imagine delays, Im curious what do u set up before ur game. Or is it just a case of players who dont likes deadlines - for example, "Id like to drink 4 beers during preparation to my game"
Parent
Drivers for mouse/keyboard/headset, some 500hz bullshit and shit. Takes time and everything doesn't always go smoothly.
Parent
LAST CALL FOR PEOPLE ATTENDING/THINKING ABOUT COMING: IF YOU WANT TO PLAY ET FOR A LAST TIME ON LAN, MSG ME, STILL LOOKING FOR PEOPLE!!!
what is line-up so far?
Parent
Im sure there will be poker games at lan either way (as always), but a bigger poker tournament would be awesome too if you can get it arranged!
We can not have a Poker tournament with money. It is forbidden by the law and Wzzrd doesn't want to take any risks.
Parent
Yeah that is understandable. Gotta stick to the private games then.
Parent
Thanks Merlin!
Poker!!@
okay fifa 15 is for me
about the 3on3 tournament... why not have the 1/8 finals cross-group? so A2 vs B7, A3 vs B6, A4 vs B5, A5 vs B4, A6 vs B3 and A7 vs B2
this would prevent teams from having to play the same oppo again on the same day, which may be a bit predictable?
on the other hand teams in the 2nd group could end up losing games on purpose to get an opponent of their choice. Also, an extra set-up round would be needed
Dunno, just an idea
Like you mentioned at the end of your post, this would require two extra set up periods. The time a set up period takes is highly unpredictable and could easily lead to delays. Therefore, our aim is to minimalize the amount of set ups.

I agree facing an oppo of the other group would have been more interesting. Unfortanetely it is not practical and will therefore most likely not be implemented.
