Below is the season schedule for the 2009 Team Tournament. Captains, please check this schedule to make sure that a) your team plays the other seven teams only once and b) that you have three home games, three away games, and one neutral match.

Remember, home team gets to pick its team’s individual matches. Hopefully we’ll see many highly publicized blood battles among the contestants. The best guaranteed week, match-wise, will occur in Week 4 when every team plays its only neutral court match. We WILL see battles pitting the #1 pick against the #2, Boo versus EmP, Zigfried against “Mein Fuhrer Venter,” mystery man Beli against mystery man Mister_E, Captain Felix against Captain Morgan Overdrive, rookie captains Will and Dagoss go head-to-head, and The Death Match 2 featuring True and Radical Dreamer a.k.a. bbobb will finally go down.

Teams:

TEAM VERBOSE ELOQUENCE
Will / Zippdementia / Sashanan


WOLVES, WHIRLPOOLS, AND A DUDE NAMED DAVE
Dagoss / Wolfqueen001 / Golden Vortex


FRZ with Patron Saints Masters and Drella
Felix / Zigfried / Randxian

THE ASCENDENT GROTESQUE
Bluberry / Woodhouse / Espiga


NATURAL BORN THRILLERS
EmP / Dark Eternal / Dragoon of Infinity


TEAM ENIGMATIC CHAOS
OD / Venter / BELISARIOS


TEAM CREEPING DEATH
Janus / Radical Dreamer / Disco1960


TEAM WHISPERING EYE
Suskie / True / ASchultz

Also, post your team names here. I don’t want to go through the other topics’ posts to see what you guys decided to call yourselves, if anything.

Tentatively calling ourselves Suskie (The Team) until we can think of something better, which is probably never.

When are we posting Week 1 matchups?

You exist because we allow it. And you will end because we demand it.

assuming Woodhouse and Espiga have no problems with obscure metal references, we are The Ascendent Grotesque.

Oh no, it's a Goomba!

How could I have a problem with such a charming name?

Buy -> Opium!

Team Will will henceforth be known as Team Verbose Eloquence.

I vote we call ourselves Team Whispering Eye.

If I Offended You, You Needed It.

Sure.

You exist because we allow it. And you will end because we demand it.

HA! Are you serious? Do you know what that means?

If I Offended You, You Needed It.

it's too late. you guys are Team Vag.

Oh no, it's a Goomba!

Well, Blue, it will be all the more amusing when we beat your ass then.

If I Offended You, You Needed It.

ooh, sounds good sailor.

Oh no, it's a Goomba!

And technically, Felix, we would need to have Death Match 1 before we could have 2. We could call it Death Match 2nd attempt, or Death Match revisited but we can't call it 2. Sorry.

If I Offended You, You Needed It.

True, compared to some of the names we've come up with, Team Whispering Eye is gold.

You exist because we allow it. And you will end because we demand it.

Don't you mean names that I've come up with?

If I Offended You, You Needed It.

Team CREEPING DEATH will bring, uh, creeping death to everyone, starting with OVERDRIVE.

So Felix updated some team names, but not ours? Perhaps I was not specific enough in my previous post; maybe if I use the bold tag...

Attention: The team presently known as Team Will or Team TBA will, henceforth from this announcement, be in all respects referred to and known as "Team Verbose Eloquence".

What day is first match? What's our plan, o Will Greatness?

Note to gamers: when someone shoots you in the face, they aren't "gay." They are "psychopathic."

The first day of competition is on the 22nd. EmP will make an official topic for all that planning to take place.

I don't have to boost my review resume because I have a real resume.

Does that mean the first set of reviews are due on the 22nd, or roughly a week later?

Not sure how to make a sig? While logged into your account, you can edit it and your other public and private information from the Settings page.

It just means that home teams can start figuring out individual matches. The deadline for selecting which reviews will be used will be midnight HG time every Wednesday (and in the case of the first week, that date is the 24th).

I don't have to boost my review resume because I have a real resume.

Will's initial plan is lose.

For us. For them. For you.

Also, there will be another deadline for setting matches. So for the first week, it'll look like this:

Monday, 22nd - Topic opens

Tuesday, 23rd - Deadline for home team to pick individual matches will be at midnight HG time, otherwise the matches will be straight seeds if the home team doesn't pick

Wednesday, 24th - Deadline for all teams to pick their reviews, otherwise a review will be randomly selected from the penalized reviewer's catalogue

And that's the format that we'll use for the rest of the tourney, excluding the week where every team plays on a neutral court (in other words, no individual mixing and matching).

I don't have to boost my review resume because I have a real resume.

I demand to face Suskie, True, and ASchultz simultaneously. I will defeat them all.

That was the idea, but then we got seeded against you for the first round, so no guarantees I'm afraid.

How long are you giving the judges to do their bit?

I can avoid death by not having a life.
