OPEN TO:
-any new clan without any finished wars-any spot is primarly open for them
-any low/lower ranked clan (ranked 21 or lower) that wants to prove themselves-they fill the rest of open spots
-maximum of 16 clans signed up to 26th October


[spoiler=general guidelines]1.This game is about fun and enjoyment and it should stay so. Any problem should be easily overcome and I don't want any of the wars to become flame war. Play fair and don't get unreasonable.

2.This is Newcomers Cup, so if any clan is a bit late or slow on joining, don't hold it against them. Most are here to learn before thrown to wolves.

3.Except me there are always CDs to turn on.

4.I will updated the thread as soon as I can with all the results.

5.I am easy going guy and believe that going for any punishment is the last resort, as I said at start, this is game and lets try to have some fun, all issues can be dealt in friendly manner.[/spoiler]

[spoiler=Rules of engagement]1. Each clan member can only participate in 15 games per clan war
2. Wars are to be played in 2 sets:
1st set only home games from higher seeded clan
2nd set only home games from lower seeded clan
3.Each map can only be used twice per clan per clan war but can only be used once per game type (i.e. once for triples and once for quads)
4.There will be no freestyle, speed, manual deployments, beta maps, or nuclear spoils games allowed
5.12 H agreement is not requirement, but can be negotiated by engaging clans
6.no trench warfare[/spoiler]

[spoiler=Organization]For each clan war, the higher seeded clan will setup a thread to run that particular match.When asking for privileges, just stay that this clan war is part of Newcomers Cup.

In each clan challenge thread. A list of players participating for each clan should be kept up along with a running tally of how many games each player has played in. If someone feels a player has violated the number of games they are allowed to participate in, please bring it to my attention. If they are found in violation, the opposing team will get to pick any games from the last batch played equal to the number of games the went over the limit to restart without that player participating.[/spoiler]

[spoiler=conflicts]The 1st step is to work it out between yourselves, next step is me and last would be CDs.

When sending and joining be careful about restrictions from Rules of Engagement.

Please do not join games later then 5 days.

For using maps more the stated, the other team will choose map and settings to replace the last joined game/s.

For excessive use of players, the other team gets to which games they wish to replace, again by choosing map and settings themselves.

If at any time anyone of you needs some time ask!!

All complaints are to be looked up in case by case fashion.[/spoiler]

[spoiler=awards]Each clan war is to be issued a medal as it normally would.[/spoiler]

[QoH]

Unlucky draw for HH. We just finished playing MD!

[benga]

Unlucky draw for HH. We just finished playing MD!

Yeap just saw it as I made the bracket,
but as you have won last time it should be good for you

[chemefreak]

Well done as always benga. Good luck to all involved.

[bragsie]

looking forward to the war, looks like we have stiff opposition to start with

[Ickyketseddie]

looking forward to the war, looks like we have stiff opposition to start with

We hope so! Good luck in the first round!

To be fair althought its the newcomers cup i dont see any 'Easy' opposition!

Good luck everyone!!!

[The Voice]

I know they just formed, but I'd never want to draw Les Hussards du Dragon (which is very hard to say, so I'd like to just call you the Hussies ) Good luck to all!

Predictions ROUND 1
TNC vs LHDD - LHDD win
OSA vs IGNI - OSA win
1RFG v. MB - 1RFG win
HH v. Man D - Hmm....I think Man D has this.

Predictions Round 2
KOA v. Man D - KOA win
LHDD v. DYN - Hmm. Not sure, tho I wouldn't be surprised to see LHDD upset the older clan
OSA v. AKA - I don't know much about either. I'll go with AKA as an uneducated guess
1RFG v. GR - I could see this going either way. I'll guess 1RFG but it'll be close.

[QoH]

HH v. Man D - Hmm....I think Man D has this.

After we brutally destroyed them the first time we met? I know I"M leaving the clan and the site and such, but still! There are some top notch players in HH.

TNC vs LHDD (but this one will be very close I think. TNC has a lot of experience, and I htink that is what will pay off in the end)
OSA vs IGNI
1RFG v. MB
HH v. Man D

Predictions Round 2
KOA v. HH (will be a tough one for both clans i think, but HH should pull it off by a game)
TNC v. DYN (Another close one, but DYN will come out on top)
OSA v. AKA (OSA is very strong-see battle OSA vs. BoFM)
1RFG v. GR (I could see this going either way. I'll guess GR but it'll be close)

Predictions Round 3
HH vs. DYN (I don't think they have enough firepower to compete with DYN at this point)
OSA vs. GR (GR are too good for OSA I think)

Finals
DYN vs. GR (GR will pull this one off)



But what do I know?

But what do I know?

I could be wrong about HH vs man d. I wasn't aware you'd played / any precident. However no way HH makes it past KOA (sorry).

[QoH]

Pshhhht... I think I might have to make a guest appearance in that war just to prove you wrong. You won't be KOA anymore... you'd be DOA (dead on arrival)

[mviola]

You won't be KOA anymore... you'd be DOA (dead on arrival)

Oh man, that's so original. It's only been said on the first page of every single one of our wars...

[skillfusniper33]

Well thats a lie, I know for a fact that it didn't happen in the IGNI War thread at all

[IcePack]

Pshhhht... I think I might have to make a guest appearance in that war just to prove you wrong. You won't be KOA anymore... you'd be DOA (dead on arrival)

I've beaten you in the past, i dont think your presense will be the making or breaking of KOA. We have much more talented players than i if we break a sweat

IcePack

And we also have much more talent than just me. But I gotta help defend that jab at HH.

It wasn't a jab / slight @ HH. But with it's current roster and experience, I just don't see it happening. Feel free to get past MD first, then you can try to prove me wrong

[General Brock II]

I guess I'll put out my predictions.

Round 1.

TNC vs LHDD - TNC win (LHDD looks powerful, but they're new)
OSA vs IGNI - Igni win
1RFG v. MB - 1RFG win
HH v. Man D - HH

Predictions Round 2
KOA v. HH - HH win
TNC v. DYN - DYN
Igni v. AKA - Igni
1RFG v. GR - 1RFG

Predictions Round 2
KOA v. HH - HH win
TNC v. DYN - DYN
Igni v. AKA - Igni
1RFG v. GR - 1RFG

On one hand u give the win to TNC cuz they r new, and the other u give HH a win over KOA?
Interesting KOA did just win like 40-10 vs MB, has beaten LoTz 28-...10? Maybe already, previously beaten Igni and GR....

Looks like we will have to show off so everyone stops underestimating us.

[Keefie]

KOA - Kiss our Asses Coz that's all you'll be seeing of us.

[grifftron]

KOA - Kiss our Asses Coz that's all you'll be seeing of us.

That too had been used since war 1 for KOA lol.. i sure hope a brand new clan that only played in a war or two takes it all! Gl all!

Feel free to talk smack after you get thru the first round how embarrassing would it be to smack talk and not even get thru....?

IcePack

[chapcrap]

All I know is that KOA is gonna be coming hard at whoever we're up against. So, you better be ready.

1RFG v. GR - GR

=>

KOA v DYN - DYN (but will be a close match)
IGNI v GR - IGNI

=>
DYN v IGNI - I will let you guys fight over who you think will win this one, but it should be a close match

[chapcrap]

TNC vs LHDD -LHDD
OSA vs IGNI - Igni
1RFG v. MB - 1RFG
HH v. Man D - HH

=>

KOA v. HH - KOA
LHDD v. DYN - DYN
Igni v. AKA - Igni

=>

KOA v DYN - DYN (but will be a close match)
IGNI v GR - IGNI

=>
DYN v IGNI - I will let you guys fight over who you think will win this one, but it should be a close match

KOA has already beaten IGNI, so if DYN is good enough to beat KOA, then you should probably pick them to beat IGNI.
