Ink or Sink Tournament! v.1.1b Final Version!

[Math]

Thank you!

Short answer: no AND yes

every tournament in the series after the first (testfire) will be archived by Splat Ladder, so long as we get their explicit approval. we're in contact with them.



thanks for asking! for any future questions, we made an Ink or Sink q&a: http://squidboards.com/threads/ink-or-sink-q-a.4019/

When you mean Splat Ladder, do you mean Splatoon Community League (SCL), the main league on this site that all of the teams partake in? Splat Ladder is a ladder system that focuses on individual rankings rather than team rankings, which I happen to run.

i believe we're in contact with both, but that's not really my wing of the committee.

About player and weapon switching: it seems strange to be able to switch players any time, but only weapons after specific rounds.

Rule abiding teams could have an unfair disadvantage if their opponents had multiple accounts for each of their players, allowing them to re-equip after each round.

Considering the nature of the different game modes I feel that swappable loadouts are crucial in developing advanced strategies for each mode- and that such an advantage shouldn't be exclusive to loophole exploits.

TL;DR I propose you keep the player swapping rule, but lift the weapon switching restriction.

we're in discussion about this. (i'm on your side)

thanks for asking! for any future questions, we made an Ink or Sink q&a: http://squidboards.com/threads/ink-or-sink-q-a.4019/

^ To add on to that, just a few questions for clarification.

1. What happens if a team breaks a minor rule? (ie, changes weapons after round 1 instead of rounds 2 or 4)
2. What happens if a team breaks a major rule? (ie, uses unlisted members)
3. What happens if squad leaders cannot agree to a set time or if one squad is unresponsive?

1. we're thinking a 3-strike-style rule, but haven't had much discussion about this

2: major rule breaking result in disqualification of the offending team

3: we're trying to develop a penalty that doesn't result in disqualification. if you can't find a time for 4 of your team members to take 45 minutes to complete your set, that's a big problem, and we need to keep the tourney moving

thanks for asking! for any future questions, we made an Ink or Sink q&a. please, for the love of the zapfish, use it: http://squidboards.com/threads/ink-or-sink-q-a.4019/

I don't see where the confusion is coming from. Nowhere in the rules is it stated that switching players mid set is allowed. It's allowed BETWEEN ROUNDS, but not mid set. Only weapon/gear swapping is allowed mid round..

Why does Squiddernauts get to have 3 teams? :P They have 3 teams of 4, which makes that 12 registered. They can just make 2 teams of 6 :P.

That is a good point, what the heck? Thats cheap as F.

On one hand they have 3 teams. On the other, each team has no back ups..

We are currently recruiting members and we already had teams formed. Each team has about 6 members and only four from each team can enter because they will be there for the tourney. @ZypkerGaming @[EJ]_Locke

Hey guys! I'm currently working on a banner for the tournament and I need your guys' help! Come up with the catchest slogan you can for this tournament. It has to do something with boats and splatoon. Be as creative as you can!

Thanks guys!

Be a boat and sink or use the pink ink to win and not stink
