Kenny's Team Keep-It Tourney

I am proud to present Kenny's Team Keep-It Tourney. This is a team event. Here is the breakdown of how the event will go:

Players will be broken down into teams (up to 4 teams total). Each team will fight over keeping the "IT". Every time someone on your team holds the IT, your team get points. The team with the most overall time holding the IT wins the round. Time stacks from round to round and the team with the most overall time held at the end of the night wins.

Points of interest:
-This is a time based event (not Laps)
-Each Round will be 10 minutes
-Damage will be Cosmetic
-Anything goes (No rules)
-All players/teams can go anywhere and do anything (working as a team will be key)
-IT player/team will be chosen randomly before the match begins

The rules are pretty simple and as follows:

This is an LNS Tourney and anything goes. The event will be 7 rounds, 10 mins each.

Date: Friday April 12, 2013 (<- THIS FRIDAY)
Time: Racing starts at Midnight Eastern Time (12am - technically Saturday morning)
Car Class: S-Class and lower (that's right, anything S or below)
Damage: Cosmetic
Collisions: Always On
Starting Grid: Random
Tracks: TBA
# of Races: 7
# of Laps: 10 min Timed Event

S7 Members ONLY!

The winner will be decided by the highest total cumulative time holding the IT. ex) If your team finished all 7 rounds holding the IT for exactly 3:00 minutes, your total race time would be 21:00. Highest overall time held wins.

how will teams be decided?

Sounds awesome! I assume there is a built in mechanic to keep track of time spent "It", as that'd be a pain to manually track lol

We did do something similar to this after an event about 3 weeks ago. I'd imagine it should be possible.

Teams will be random I assume. And yes, team settings and time spent as it is tracked in game as a setting, in theory. Might try and test it later this week to check the settings.

Sweet, I'll definitely be there. Sounds like it should be a blast.

I can't wait. I am not sure how it will work but I like the idea of a teammate helping.

Is it definitely just teams of 2? Teams of 3 might be interesting if enough people show.

No, there is no set number of people to a team. It will mostly depend on turnout and what we as a group want to do.

I'll probably be participating in this one. This one seems like it will be the most hectic event since there are no laps. Everyone will be going whichever way they can to become "it".

Sounds fun

Exactly, and no one can just end the match by finishing the race. We have to fight to the last second.

I would like to request 2 tracks:
- Camino Viejo Mini
- Soccer Field

Not sure if the Soccer tracks are available but if not I assume maybe the open test track might be a good one. Also, TopGear would be interesting.

I think the sticky sand on top gear is problematic. I remember staying it for huge amounts of time in FFA tag on that track because it has such a huge sticky sand area.

Good call. We don't want cheesy wins.

Yeah, so definitely need to check out tracks before running them. Most have natural boundaries so it isn't an issue.

Indeed. We need tracks with little on no sinky sand. Grass is OK with me, just no sticky stuff.

Impromptu Forza night to get a trial run in for this tourney and maybe a bit of soccer or cat and mouse/messing around fun. Who's down? Like 8 or 9 tonight est?

Workin till like 10:30/11pm.

I can probably be on at like 9:30-10 EST, that's when the baby should be out.

If only there was a way to turn off sticky sand

I am down.

Did you guys get to test out any of the tracks?

Yes Interseptor and I got on and tested things out and found some good tracks for this tourney. Mainly the test tracks that are open and have wide areas to Manuver
