    LZ has been challenged to a Dodgeball Fight from "Team Fortress Destroyers" (TFD). As they do not have a dodgeball server, (yet), they are requesting for the fight to take place on the LZ dodgeball server. TFD are a high ranked clan on our dodgeball server, so this will be a tough fight.

    The fight will be 6 vs 6 with the map rotation being Redcourt and Nuketoss. Their initial date will be Saturday 23rd January (short notice I know...) However they are able to change the date if we do not get enough players.

    If you wish to sign up please post a message giving me your Ingame name and your Steam ID.
    They have decided on a time...ish. Between 6pm and 7pm GMT. So far they have 4 players - possible 5. They are - |TFD| Monkey Man, |TFD| Pumphead, |TFD| Nemonorm (...), |TFD Creepster, |TFD| Desert Eagle, |TFD| Mrs Nordmoen.

    LZ Players so far - DataStorm, BartieBoy, Pascal

    But since some of the LZ's are also TFD on which team would they be?
    Dont forget the dodgeball is a public server which means you cant stop people from joining the server.

    you can close the server with a password for the players, distribute via a common chat on steam the password to the players and off you go.

    the only problem is that server config needs to change so the ppl get on "their" side with their team. (scramble off, and ppl actually able to select the right colored side...)

    hmmz, and dodgeball a private plugin... shame, wanted to do it at my next homelan with all my friends... (bout 10 ppl, too much for my internetzzz)

    regarding players, I'd be willing to participate, but would want to know the rules on it and time to play (altho I hate the nukeonly-maps....). I'm pretty high ranked so bout skillz is no prob... i'm prolly place 3-6 or some like that.

    For contacting me, khadgar has me in his friendslist, nemo too and couple other guys. I might ask "kugs" to play as well if he's proven enough with his rank ;) and wanted.

    rank doesn't say much about skill imo.

    We got the private warservers and the configs to provide correct match settings, but it's still is a private plugin.
    As far as i know, there isn't really a competitive side, so rules will still have to decided between players.

    If the interest from the player base on db server is high, we could punch an organised db event together for you guys ;-)

    I guess they'll just have to decide just how lethal they are :)

    Also I think tryouts is a bad idea in such short notice, unless you want to delay the date?

    Short notice.... 23rd januar... yeah that IS short notice.

    Since the dodgeball is public we would need to dig up the dodgeball war server.

    Will try to look into that tonight or tomorrow to see if its possible to get of all the dust and make it shiny and new again ;)

    But.... might be more fun to arrange a tournament with multiple teams?
