If you want to take part in the SWBF leaderboards please sign up below either as an individual or as a team of 4. Hopefully we can get a good number of players and have some good games. The rules are below.

Rules and outline:
The swbf leaderboards tournament will be split into two sections one for individuals and one for teams of four and will start on September 1st. Thanks to Led/Buckler it will be hosted by SWBFgamers.

Individuals:
The first 20 (I'm optimistic) people to join will be be given random numbers to order them in the scoreboard. If you want to move up in the rankings you need to challenge someone within 3 places of you(for example number 7 can challenge 6, 5 or 4). If you win you take their place and they move down one. New players have to start at the bottom and work up.

Every player is expected to accept 2 challenges a week but there is no maximum. Admins will oversee any matches where a player requests it but both players can agree to no admins before matches. If you want screenshots from the other player you can also arrange this before the match. There would be a time limit of 20 minutes per match for individuals (then first kill wins for ties). There will be no CP bleed (meaning reenforcements will only go down with kills but CPs can be captured. Ticket count will be 15-15.

Teams:
Teams must have 6 registered members and can change only one member a week. Time limit is 30 minutes per match. Other rules are the same as individuals except teams can only challenge within two places and there will be CP bleed. Ticket count will be 250-250.

Both:
The defender would choose the era and map from Cloud city and Mos Eisley with the condition that 2 people cannot play the same map twice in a row. The attacker would choose the team. Gameplay would be capturing cps but no special units for the sake of balance, there will be no AI.

Rules:
1.Screenshots must be taken of all scores.
2.No mods (minimap always on, transparency etc.) Only crosshairs and player skins are allowed.
3.No cussing/swearing
4.No wall hacking
5.Remember this just a game so be nice and play fairly with other players.
6.No challenging the same player more than 2 weeks in a row.
7.No special units (Jets, Wookie or Droideka)
8.No tanks
9.If an admin is requested for a match the match must start within 10 minutes of the proposed time. It will  then start regardless of how many players are present.
10.Matches are based on the position of the players before the match not the leaderboard. Example: If player 5 beats 4 he is then out of range of player 8 even if the leaderboard has not been updated yet. Its not as confusing as that sounds.
11. Challenges must be accepted within 6 days and played 2 days after that or you will be moved below the challenger.
12.Any arguments over matches must be posted the same day     

Penalties for breaking these rules will normally take the form of a place drop.
I play less now but I'll always be around, lets keep this site and battlefront going. :)

Thanks for setting this up GDH.   I would like to participate.

Probably need to nail down what map, ticket count, no cps or not, etc.

Don't believe everything you read on the internet

I'm still learning as I go :) Assuming you can host It will be Mos Eisley and Cloud City for teams and individuals both will have cps but individuals will be no cp bleed. I'll update the rules for ticket count but im thinking 15 for singles and 250 for teams. Also if you want to change the thread title to SWBFgamers.com leaderboards please do. I didn't do it beacuse I wanted to check with you.

Admins shouldn't participate because of possible biased decisions, in my opinion.

Ultimately it depends on who the admins are. If they would make biased decisions they shouldn't be an admin at all. Any admin should be capable of thinking fairly and be able to take all factors into account in order to come to a fair decision. The people who are capable of doing this are far and few between as us humans have a remarkable ability to get stuck in our opinions on who we think is right and refuse to acknowledge any new facts that may change the situation. I think your going to find that no matter how it is done the admins will make mistakes or poor decisions. After all we are only humans.

I agree. All I recommend is that the Admins don't participate in the 4v4. You cant really cheat on 1v1.

I can take part in the 1vs1 but I  away for 3 weeks from now. :D

I come back on the 2nd September so i cant play the first too days but will be sure to make matches after that
