Josko/rockfist team???

They should do it! This may be the best field of doubles partners I've seen.
Hey fishy... Signups are missing your name

Get in here fishy!!!
Josko is busy with Fall I would guess…but a rock/Lou combo would be good too.
If 2 of 3 games are non-trench, I would play. There are some maps which are very playable and strategic in trench but random map + trench can easily lead to a game where team with lucky first start wins, which is not so much the case for random map + non-trench.
Meaning you might not win over 50% with this game style
Grow some and join in who cares…Naruto lite maybe

Haha that coward wont join anything outside of his comfort zone. If you bring him in then I will join as well despite that I dont like format with two games of random + trench.
Recently I joined many trench games versus reputable CC players and won more than 50% vs MTIceman41's team, hudds' team and Bogan God's team, but these trenches were on maps where trench is very playable, which is not case with random + trenxh dubs. At least 100 of 250 maps are unplayable and very much based on 1st start with doubles trench settings. Also would be nice to see zombie instead of nuclear as maybe nobody yet sitewise has platinum zombie medal while platinum nuclear is already achieved by many players.

Jokso:
But with players I normally play with like pix and Dave we won3/4…
He beat me with players I don’t play with extensively…and you basically told teggee what to do each move so let’s be real.
I would do 10 Europe 1914 trench adj nonspoils against you…I get 4-7 wins.
Again you are good but I think you demean people and have poor attitude.
Swimmer might need to adjust the peen ratings after this
Too much talent in this tournament…jokso is worried about his legacy if he looses

You probably need some iron in your diet…thin and pasty is so 90’s
Only people like you…good with 99% others

Commenting on the format - I want to play because it is dubs (takes me less time than trips/quads), it is random map (keeps it interesting for me), it is a light game load (I like to keep my active game load relatively low), and the settings are fun, allowing for some creativity in the strategy. And I have a dream teammate - what's not to like?

Some tournaments try to be too E-P-I-C. Fun and simple is the goal!

Depends on your definition of "fair" would you like me to code in a bye for you so I don't get flack?
Plan is to have it randomized. I have done that for most things in the past rather than seeding or selecting friends or whatever. What would your proposal be?

i would assume it means everyone gets a bye? at least in normal circumstances. but your wording suggested that isnt the case. at least to me.

By your definition of fair, it appears not

I can remove you if you prefer, just let me know.
