| #15 - Inital Groups Up | 2016-10-12 10:56 | claire |

After a little discussion between admins and some advisors, the initial groups are up.
Feel free to comment and let us know if you think people should be moved around or swapped between A and B.
With the number of people we have, splitting into As and Bs left groups a little small, but they would've been too big to combine into a single group.
Not decided yet, but perhaps we'll do smaller playoff trees for the smaller groups (2 from each) and a bigger tree from Div 1 since it has much more players.
Things taken into consideration when placing players:
- Previous placement
- Results from previous seasons
- Player preference
- Likeliness to actually play a game (I'm looking at you Hibru)
- Random guessing
A and B split was done using a random group generator, we can balance these out more if you feel one side is more stacked than the other.

| #15 Map Vote | 2016-09-11 13:18 | claire |

The map pool will consist of 9 maps total, just like last year. The top 4 most-played maps from season 14 are automatically in the pool. You will vote on the remaining 5. The list of votable options is made up of most of the remaining maps from last season plus a few others.
You have 2 weeks to vote. The polls will close at 23:59 CET on September 25th, giving you a week to decide if you want to play in the league with the finalized list of maps. Only votes from players who are signed-up at the time the vote closes will be counted. Any votes made or edited after that time will not be counted.
In the event of a tie (the 9th map and 10th map have the same number of votes), the map with the earliest qualifying vote wins.
The 4 most-played maps from season 14:
1. q2rdm2
2. q2duel5
3. ztn2dm2
4. koldduel1
Pick 5 of these to finish the pool
- frdm3
- omf
- ptrip
- q2dm1
- q2dm2
- q2dm3
- q2rdm1
- q2rdm7
- q2rdm10
- tastydm2
- ztn2dm3
All of these maps (and their associated assets) should be available on all the Packetflinger servers. If not, they will be in the next couple of days. Simply connect, join a team and type vote <mapname>. There is also a pak available to download if you want to check out the maps offline, just save it to your baseq2 folder and type map <mapname> from the game console.
Try not to discount maps youve never heard of or played, try them all, you might find you like some of the lesser known maps.
The crew also reserves the right to change the options (unlikely).

EDL #15 is upon us!
are open now and will remain open for 3 weeks, until 23:59 on October 2nd. Please remember to send us an email at quake2edl@gmail.com so we have your current email address when you sign up. Failure to make sure we have your email address will result in you not being seeded into a group.
Maps
We haven't decided on maps yet, but there should be some news about this soon. Most likely we'll end up with a small pool of the most played maps from last year and a vote for a couple more. Keep an eye out for this.
Time Zone
Remember the official time zone of EDL is Central European Time (GMT+1). Make sure you set your time zone on your Q2Scene profile to CET so times are shown correctly and you dont miss scheduled matched.
Rules
As always please read and understand the rules. You will be expected to play your matches according to the rules and breaking them (whether you knew it or not) will result in warnings.
Anticheat
In case you weren't aware, R1ch compiled a new version of anticheat.dll this summer that works with all versions of windows (7, 8, 10) and released an approved version of Q2Pro that works with it. They're all available to download at . Unless you have a good excuse like running on linux or a mac (and can prove it), we will expect you to run an anticheat-enabled client and play matches on an anticheat-enabled server.
Please idle in our IRC channel #edl on irc.quakenet.org, it really makes scheduling matches and finding people much easier. is a great free IRC client.
Anyone who wants to play is welcome to join, no matter what nationality, location or skill level you are. As long as you agree to follow the rules and play your matches on time.
Have fun! |
