Alright guys we're finally going to have another tournament.  The tournament will begin on February 19th.  Registration begins now and will close on February 17th at 12pm central time.  Teams should be submitted to me in forum pm's and I will update the thread.  Please make sure that all team member's names are spelled correctly.  Each team must also specify a captain and a co captain. The format will follow a similar style to air raid 6.

 

Keep in mind once a player is placed on a team in this thread he is locked in.  You can submit a partial team and then continue to add players to it all the way up to the cutoff point.  Anyone not registered by the end will not participate.  There will be no exceptions.

 

Team size:  5 players with 3 alternates so a max of 8 players per team

 

Tier: 6

 

Plane stipulations:  Any plane that can be currently purchased in game for either gold or credits is allowed.  Key thing being that the plane is available to everyone if they so choose to purchase it.  Only one of each plane is allowed so only one 410 or 109f can be in the air at once per team.  You can bring a maximum of two heavy fighters.  The other 3 planes can be any light fighter or multirole you wish.

 

Prizing:  There will be gold payouts for this tournament and they will be in amounts to make it worth your while.  As of now the exact amounts are not known, but will definitely be finalized or at least minimums set within the next week.

 

Purdue1987 and I will be overseeing the event and we look forward to good participation.  I personally love the tournaments we have and will be flying in this one, purdue will not be and he will be the final say in any disputes that should arise.

Im sure he meant the event (tournament) .

[CrayoIaCrayon]

Well that depends on if the teams choose to.  In the past I think dracs and nooblets were the only ones who did

[Mackunaima]

I don't have a team..

I'm sure they will come back for this.

[BobozeeBear]

As the reigning champions I would sincerely hope to see nooblets  defend their title.

I hope so... but they are rusty now...

[CrayoIaCrayon]

Aren't we all though?  Too many bots lol.  No real people to challenge anymore

[TeamTerrible]

What time in the day will the actual event take place?

 

[CrayoIaCrayon]

Same time as before.  All battles will start at 830 central time in the evening

[ReRoll_Everyday]

So after all that drama JLNN caused over AR8, all that's going to happen is kpop's and Marco's AR6 is going to be reused but with Jetway running it?

[SkywhaleExpress]

Mmmm... tournaments...... CLAM WARS!!

[209]

Yep Yep Yep more drama just like all the other Air Raids. Mugsy, Yoott and Haswell knew how to put on Tournaments !!!!

0830 central, well not gonna happen for me ...........Have fun all !!!

[Porkins_Jr]

I think something like this is desperately needed so kudos to Jetway.

 

If we had stuff like this going on a ...let's say monthly basis...I think it would alleviate a lot of the people saying "There's no competition anymore! I'm uninstalling!"

 

After all, reacting to no competition by leaving the game is like protesting an empty fridge by going on a hunger strike. You're just making things worse.

I completely agree, the thing is Marco has been PMing GhostPrime and other WG employees about ARs every single month since AR7 ended and they kept giving weak excuses as to why they cant fund the tourney with payouts.

Yes, but if your fridge is empty and one grocery store does not have the type of food you want...you go to a different store.
