My body is ready

 

[MintChipper]

I am definitely signing up Team QC this time! Watch out Squid Squad Spades!
Edit: When is this? I'm using a school computer which blocks reddit if it says it there.
Edit: nvm

 

[Ultramus]

Hopefully we have our normal team this time, so unfortunately you may not see the reappearance of Squid Squad Jokers, or maybe you will, but it might be a totally different roster :p

 

[BestTeaMaker]

Alright guys, early signups are up! I'll be posting the reddit signups in a few days, but for now I'm gonna open signups early for you guys first.

Testing out the new sign-in form and scheduling, hopefully everything goes smoothly.

 

[Zarkith]

Will the signup form eventually be simplified to selecting your challonge team like in BB1?

 

[CutestFish]

Hard to apply for something you don't know the date of.

 

[MintChipper]

Team Quetzalcoatl Gold is ready!

My discord is MintChipper if you need it.

 

[BestTeaMaker]

fixed the date shown

 

[BestTeaMaker]

So, what with several conversations, feedback, and testing, we are going to hold a final discussion on what the final ruleset will be. Because everyone is learning towards TO-selection, we are going to work on a variant of it that will decrease RNG factors as much as possible while making the process easier for all involved.

If you're interested in joining the conversation, join the /r/Splatoon discord chat and ask for one of the mods to add you to the backroom discussion area.

Is there a limit on how many teams per squad can enter?

 

[Danny]

Is there a limit on how many teams per squad can enter?

No.

However a gentleman's limit of 2 is appreciated.

 

[Drez]

To be clear, two teams of four from one squad can enter then? Wording is confusing to me.

 

[Kat]

Dates for this tournament? I'm assuming it's the 26-27th of September with the bottom banner right? Please let me know if I'm wrong as I'm putting down as such on the comp calendar.

 

[BestTeaMaker]

@Kat right, 26th-27th of September.

@Drez basically, only 2 squads from a single team. We don't have a limit, more of a gentleman's agreement.

Updated with ruleset and posted to /r/Splatoon as well.

I've also noticed that some teams have signed up via Form but NOT Challonge. For those who don't know, there is a second page that requires you to click to enter the challonge signup page!

SQUIDpacalypse is looking for a new member for Booyah Battle 2. A blaster or roller would be nice, but open to anyone. Last time we placed top 16, and looking to push it further!
