All maps will be the ones made by EA. You and your opponent can decide what map though. They have to be 1v1 maps. Win/Lose - If you win, send the replay to me. ([email protected]) And report to me that you have won, and the loser will confirm this. Please no bickering as like "it was unfair" or anything. If you HAD to leave during the match urgently, you will be allowed one rematch if your opponent agrees. Dates - The Tiberian Sun has risen! IE: It's begun Rules of play - No rules except cheating. That is all. Rushing is fair game, every tactic is fair game. I personally think the Mothership tactic is cheap, but it's still fair game, I should have been ready to counter it.

Sonic 296 Posted June 29, 2007 You can make this tournament an official CNCNZ.com tournament , and I will send the overall winner a C&C 3 t-shirt. Now you have something to play for Share this post Link to post

Love you. I figured I might not as well bother with it since you said you've tried with other C&C games and no one stuck with it. But okay! Now that a prize is in it, I think more people might get interested. Many thanks Sonic! I really appreciate it. And I'll make sure to put on my serious face in these games.

Luk3us 63 Posted June 30, 2007 New question: Should we wait till 1.06 before holding this tourny? 1.06 doesn't have any balance issues attached to it, just a bunch of hot fixes. So its not really worth waiting around for it. Share this post Link to post

Gben 20 Posted July 2, 2007 Saw the add in the siggy - thought it was a great idea - so I'll bite. Forum name:C&C 3 alas: Access to hamachi?: y/n Will you be available in July 6th to probably say 16th: y/n Time zone: Forum name: gben01 C&C3 alias: gben01 Access to Hamachi: ? (I've only just learned of this beastie - so I can access it if it's best but never used it) Availability: Will try my darndest but shouldn't a problem - as I'm bound to kicked out in first round. (is it going to be a knockout or round-robin?) Time Zone: Sydney (GMT +11) -gben Share this post Link to post
TheBlackOut 7 Posted July 2, 2007 It will be a knock-out. You lose you're out. Hamachi is essentially a virtual-LAN, you join a hamachi network and you can play through that and C&C 3 will see that as if we're connected through a router, thus we can play network games. Less change of a mis-match etc. Link to hamachi, http://www.hamachi.cc/download/list.php Download it, install it, create a name, and join the network "CNCNZCNC3" without the quotes. I'll PM contests the password. You can test it with me or someone else and see if it works. And that way we can determine if there's going to be an issue before the tourney begins.

Gben 20 Posted July 2, 2007 Good idea about testing - next time we're both online - I'll chat you up and organise a test game... Knock-out's fine... and only fair. -gben Share this post Link to post
mormreed 0 Posted July 2, 2007 Sonic you should throw in a CNCNZ t-shirt for second place Share this post Link to post
Sonic 296 Posted July 2, 2007 Sorry don't have that many go around. 1 overall winner = 1 shirt. TheSoVietBlackOuT, as the games are played send me the replays. I'll post them up on the main site. Share this post Link to post

Saracen 16 Posted July 2, 2007 Could we extend this even further at all by creating a part of the site dedicated to this tourney.. perhaps we could get reports from the winner on each game. It's a shame Zee is having trouble getting online. I could not think of a better person to actually commentate on these games and have the replay cast with his voice in it, the amount of jokes he could make and the variyng degrees of seriousness would be great Although I think Zee could do commentary to the semi's and the final if he were to use fraps or something to do some post game commentary. I think that could be quite witty and interesting. I dunno, I'm just thinking we could put a little extra spin on things. Also, would it be worth advertising this on the main page to bring some more interest forward. At the moment we only have 3 people, and it'd be great to expand it further if we struggle for signups.

TheBlackOut 7 Posted July 2, 2007 I never really took on the fact that you guys would be so supportive of this! Well, we could. But I have a strange indication that Zee's parents are gonna keep him off for a long time... But yah, I'll extend it. I never really set a definite date anyways. As the extra attention on the main page, I donno. I thought this would be need frequent CNCNZ.com visits and regulars. If we advertise this on the frontpage, we'll get people from gamereplays.org and other sites that just want the prize. They get knocked out I doubt they'd stay a member here, they win, I doubt. I donno, your call on that one. Share this post Link to post

Side Vote:- Advertise on Main page v Signature Advertisement My vote is for 'invitation only' atmosphere, like originally stated, players must already be part of the community. At least for the first one... it can be our tournament beta! And thanks F15 for thinking about playing too... now I have someone to battle for the wooden spoon! If you don't have enough Tshirts to go around... maybe the worst player in the tourney can get a Renegade Mouse Pad!!! I like the idea of some commentaries on the games - or maybe some the finals like suggested. Or maybe someone with the time and inclination can do a 'best moves of the tourney" montage. . . . Of course then Zee will have to recreate classic tourny battles in lego for a future episode! -gben Share this post Link to post
Sonic 296 Posted July 3, 2007 Well put it this way. I will only send the free shirt to loyal forum members who actively post here a lot. Not someone who just registers, posts once then disappears. Share this post Link to post

Sonic 296 Posted July 4, 2007 Come on peoples need more people to get involved...Lets break it down shall we. I've played up to mission 5 of GDI (I think), never looked at the Nod missions yet. Play a total of 2 games online (wasn't fun), and now I haven't even loaded up C&C 3 for over a month now. Do you think I'm ready to play and actually give someone challenge? Plus I'm the one putting up the prize, that's my involvement. Share this post Link to post
