BunnyTrack autumn 2014 tournament

[ShaiHulud]

Hi folks,

Signups have just opened for the autumn BunnyTrack cup. This iteration will follow the format of the previous cup in that all matches for a division will be played on the same day, spanning several hours. There will be two divisions, tougher maps will be played in division 1, and the less challenging maps in division 2.

Division 2 is scheduled for Sunday 9th November; division 1 for Sunday 16th November.

There are 16 places available in each division so be sure to register your interest sooner rather than later to secure a spot!
Full details and updates available on the cup administrator's website over at:

Happy hopping

What about div 3? I might give it a try. O.o but I gotta look over these map list.

[ShaiHulud]

I thought the same The last cup featured a mixture of division 2 and division 3 maps for "division 2". It started with the easier div 3 maps in early rounds, and moved towards the harder div 2 maps in later stages. That worked quite well, since it's a knock-out tournament.

I suspect Nin imagines that there wouldn't be enough sign-ups for a third division. But maybe if enough people show interest he could be persuaded to reconsider. Having said that, each division requires him to devote almost the entire day to the administration duties, and I'm not sure he'd be keen to lose 3 Sundays in a row!

Thank for the heads up, Shai!

I'll try and join in for this one and I expect nothing less from you

I might go 3rd div b/c I never played any bt cup before or so. But I'd look at the comparison to see which one I can do better, div 2 or div 3. Set up div 3 because we have some peeps that haven't played in bt cups before and I can try to invite them.

Just want to give this a bump: sign-ups close on October 30th, so get your name down if you think you might want to play - don't worry about experience level, enthusiasm is the main priority

Would you set up a div 3 maplist even if you don't have a div 3?

[ShaiHulud]

Nin has a good stock of div 3 maps from previous tournaments, so I'm sure he could provide one I'm sure div 2 will feature some division 3 maps in the first couple of rounds of this cup too.

[Chamberly]

I don't know who is Nin... and how am I suppose to know?

[ShaiHulud]

Sorry Nin is the main tournament organiser - I'm just doing my bit to spread awareness of the cup on different forums, but I'm not involved with the group who are supervising it in any way. The website:

thedarkmagician.co.uk

...is Nin's personal site which he's using to co-ordinate players and cup news.
