@booshy89: Boom!

Nice one Booshy!

@KratosMD: You wont, I think everyone in this thread has been addicted to RL, but after an absence its not the same.

The loot boxes and crappy showroom systems have put a dampner on the previous experience. But our tournaments are evenly spaced so you can enjoy other games.

How late this running to?

10pm. 8 x 5 (7 x 5 if you don't reach a final) minute games = 40 minutes, so it should be 10:40. In reality setting up games etc will probably take us to 11:30pm. The most important thing is we all start at 10pm and we all 'duck' out of parties when the two games against each team are over. The big stumbling block I've found is people running late or a dodgy connection for someone on the night (honestly this really mucks everything up) I've counted this incase a teammate or opponent isn't on you have to play with a pro bot. After the 6 group games we just have to quickly count up (in advance im thanking @booshy for this) and then the cup games of which there can be a max of only 2 start. Everyone will play a minimum of 7 games. 8 games if you win your semi final.

Practicing atm in prep

Thanks for the tournament last night. It was a good laugh and we all got to speak to each other for the first time in ages! Coming up are the current rankings.

Rankings as of 2.11.16

Ok as promised here something a bit different. Using the rankings above we will see some movers and shakers.

Anyone can call out another player for a singles match with no modifiers (using the ps4) with anyone a maximum of 2 places above them. The person above has 4 days to respond and play the game. If the bottom rated player wins they swap places with the player they called out. If the bottom rated player loses the positions stay the same. If the player doesn't respond within the 4 days they automatically swap their spot. If you call out another player and they have already organised a game you can either call put someone else or wait until their game has been played.

As an example 9th is Hego, 10th is TripleGK, 11th is Quintumply and 12th is Noisy (me obvs). I can call out either Triple or Quintumply to play a game as they are 2 places above me. If I call out Triple he has to respond and play the game within 4 days - however if he organises a game with Hego in the meantime and informs me, I will then try to call out Quintumply. If Quintumply then fails to respond within 4 days I will swap places with Quintumply and restart the process.

Hope this makes some kind of sense as it does in my head. If its a crap idea let me know 😊

@themcnoisy: Sounds a good idea, could be interesting if enough people take this up. It'll be suicidal of me to take sequence on unless anyone has any information on any time away he has planned
I'll enjoy 2nd spot while I can anyhow lol

@A1RB4G: Haha, check his diary he must take a break sometimes.

@TripleGK: Well it has to be Quintumply or me, as its a maximum of 2 places above you. Be looking out Triple I'm gunning for you bro!

@themcnoisy: This sounds great, I'm looking forward to this I can progress now and really improve. glances at rankings ok it's all down hill from here, five constantly amazing players are above me, lol bring it on

@Simon_Fitzgerald: You have nothing to lose though! If you battle someone above you and lose it just means you stay in the same place. But yup you have loads of tough battles ahead of you.

@Neolit: Thanks man, good times. Rocket Leagues initially about practising hitting those high percentage floating towards your own goal situations. Easy to miss when you time them wrong then your screwed. Should take my own advice as I scored 2 own goals lol.

Now I realise I'll never get past DangerMouse...

@Speedy67: DMs really good. Actually I would like to see DM vs Sequence vs Airbag in 3 separate matches. Tristrams and Jevon are great players too but on your day speedy and as you know you can nick a win as you have some skills yourself.

On that note does anyone know if Jevons still around playing RL? Haven't heard from him for ages.

its up to you guys to organise these games yourselves until the 1st of December but I would like to see;

Speedy vs Tristram
Robo vs Triple
Hego vs Simon
Patrick vs Sam

and this especially;
Sequence vs Airbag vs Dangermouse. Dm should stream it too!

If you don't get a reply for a game request within 4 days you automatically swap places!

Anyways I'm hoping for a win against Triple tomorrow and to climb the rankings.
