== Speeders and Crazy Tronners Challenge Board ==

A similar tournament can be run for Speeders and for Crazy Tronners Fortress, to be run on the same day and at the same times. It just needs to be set up by players...

;Communication
We need to make sure we have a reasonable form of communication so can we enter the server within a few minutes of each other. As far as coordinating the team MSN seems to be working the best. Remember windows includes the MSN client and you can use your hotmail account to log in.

Durka has graciously set up a chat-room for us: [[Wraith Squadron - Chat Room]]

Also Durka made a new forum so it would be easier for all of the clans to communicate, organize wars, tournaments, and view stuff about certain servers. [http://armaclans.freehostia.com Armagetron Clans]

;Holes
As far as holes, if you see one and you think you can safely make it GO FOR IT. However unless you are SURE your partner can take the zone successfully DON'T make a hole. We are better off having you alive.

;Win zone
We won't take the win zone unless the other team is gong for it, If they do all rules are off, make them sorry any way you can.

;Placement
Manta probably needs to be on the out side.

;Defender
BlAzE is defender, kamakazi is backup, if one dies head back, don't leave defense alone.

Things can change so use your judgment as to what needs to be done and where you will be needed.

Ladle-4/Challenge Board

69.59.72.81: /* Challenge Board */

{{Ladle-4}}

The Challenge Board is designed to make the pairing of teams easier. '''Team Captains should take careful note of how to make best use of this system.'''

The following list is provisional structure, timing, and location of games based on maximum of 8 teams. Additional rounds will be inserted if required. There is a choice of servers to allow predominantly American teams an opportunity to play in a low-ping grid.

=== Quarter Finals 7.30pm GMT ===
* Team 1 challenges Team 2 on Fortress or Z-man's Tournament Fortress
* Team 3 challenges Team 4 on AST Fortress
* Team 5 challenges Team 6 on US Fortress or Wildwest - Fortress (bugfarm)
* Team 7 challenges Team 8 on LOD Lords of Destruction Fortress Server

=== Semi Finals 8.15pm GMT ===
* Team 1/2 challenges Team 3/4 on AST Fortress or Z-man's
* Team 5/6 challenges Team 7/8 on US Fortress or LOD Lords of Destruction Server Fortress Server

=== Finals 9pm GMT ===
* Team 1/2/3/4 challenges Team 5/6/7/8 on AST Fortress or US Fortress

Server allocation depends on what servers are available on the night. Check the discussion page to see recent availability of servers providing Standard Fortress Settings, and feel free to propose alternatives. Ultimately, Team-Captains will decide.

=== Challenge Board ===

* Team 1 is... [[Wraith Squadron]]
* Team 2 is... [[Tronic Monkeys]]
* Team 3 is...
* Team 4 is... [[Holers]]
* Team 5 is... [[SteveTaylor]]
* Team 6 is...
* Team 7 is... proN00bz
* Team 8 is... .Tronners in pyjamas|

Please note, it is for Team Captains only to issue challenges by locating their [[Ladle-4/Team List|teams]] appropriately on the board. Your placement on this list establishes the entire bracket for the night. Consult your team and determine who you wish to play and where; consider ping, and the subsequent play-offs after the first round. '''The last date for alteration of the Challenge Board is 00.00 GMT 1st October 2006, the day of the 4th Tronic Ladle.'''

Please do not replace another team-name with yours. '''Fill only vacant spaces.''' In this way, Team Captains have a way of jockeying for position.

=== Provisional Brackets ===

This will be filled out on the 1st October, and confirmed before the first game. Results will be added throughout the competition.

It's a bit flaky on my browser but please give it a try and see how it works for you.
:It was flaky when I was sharing the hosting on my server that has a bunch of stuff on it already. I transfered it back to the main host and it works perfectly. No more troubles signing on. ---[[User:Durka|Durka]] 13:03, 9 September 2006 (CDT)

Retrospection: In the 3rd ladle match, which was on September the 3rd , it looked like all team mates wanted to defend our zone. So we let ourselves not enough room to evolve or device our game play. There were only 2 or 3 attacks during 2 matches. That’s not enough to win. So I think for the future it would be not wrong to arrange the best position for every team mate as well as a second position to fill in for someone in case of being prevented on the given day. Otherwise everybody plays like he wants to and we try to find out our strategy during the next ladle match. Maybe it is funny and a little bit chaotic, but that way (without conception) i think we only can make the 1st place with a lot of luck. We don't need luck, we could be better. I know it. (AshitakA)

Very good points AshitakA, I think part of the problem was my arriving late, some of our players being out of town and some having other responsibilities at game time and then substitute players who we had not practiced with. In the end we never did get our act together. Over all we did do very well against THE best team but we played as if it was an everyday match and our organization sucked.
It did not work out this time because of everyone schedules but we probably need to have a pregame meeting with all the members who are present to decide who will be where in the line up and doing what. We may also need to work on getting a few more members as having subs seems to really through us off. So far our core members are all very good at team work so we need to keep that in mind for any one else. PS hope you can stay with us goodygumdrops.
Ash is there any chance you can use MSN or IRC? right now you are the only member who we can't easily contact. --Manta
