I disagree with it being a rule, just foe whoever it is and don't play with them anymore. Rules are great in theory but n oy only do they cause a disconnect between players and mods, but they're also rarely honored and it creates more of a backlog for mods to handle, just foe and ignore imo, much simpler.

Our Tournament has Concluded, thanks to everyone for playing!

Our top three:

1. Cunningfox
2. AkiraFAF
3. Index/Fox2Code

@Nuggets refer to this message by bully in our rules and roles channel:
"We may ask players with a global rating significantly higher than their ladder rating to play a few ladder games, if they don't already. If you think this concerns you, you can already get started "

play some ladder please, 5-10 games if possible, see where your rating ends up, Vindex Paradox Bully and I can discuss it.

@Nuggets Team Lead doesn't know a lot about the forums : )

@AkiraFAF Can I get your FAF name please?

@Neytron it is u1500, but we do offer u1900 as well!

Hello Everyone,
I think it's time we formalized Community Game Night as a permanent event within the FAF Community, and in my opinion that includes centralization of information and resources, as well as sharing a bit more of my vision for this project.

What is Community Game Night?
Community Game Night is self explanatory as a concept, it's a bi-weekly event ran by @Deribus and myself typically, this event is a series of games in which the community simply plays together, although I have a grander theme for this idea, and I want to make it a reality.
This event typically has a theme, such as Common Armies Union Control, 4v4v4v4, SACU Madness, SACU Rebalance Testing (UEF) etc, and these all bring us together as a community, where 2ks can come to chill, and new players can get themselves acquainted with regular faces. Overall it's a win win for everyone, and I can say with full confidence that they're very fun to be at for all ratings, if you haven't already participated I recommend you partake at least once, you don't know what you're missing!

How do I partake in Community Game Night?
We have a dedicated channel on the main FAF Discord which is now viewable by everyone, but only those with the Game Nights role can type within it. You can show interest there, or simply pop into the Community Game Night VC, as people in VC do get priority when we have games! There is no requirement other than showing up and playing, other than no toxicity, it won't be tolerated at all.

Where can I go for additional resources with this project?
For additional resources, this forum post will be continually maintained by myself and any other contributors to the project, you may also go to the Community Game Night channel on the main FAF discord, or get in contact with me directly any way you'd prefer, all three methods will catch you up to date, and may give you the insights you need!

My Vision for CGN
I always wanted CGN to be integral to FAF, and since it's return it's seen a resounding success within the community. I think this is a good opportunity to not only build upon that community spirit, but that we can use it as a way to make FAF better in terms of how it operates, bare with me for a second.
If you've attended a CGN before, You will likely have heard me say "We're doing x y z for Game Dev team" or "We're testing a b c for the Balance Team", and typically people are more than okay to contribute, making this an efficient way for contributor teams in FAF to get something useful out of it, and allowing players to see a more transparent insight into what we do behind the scenes.
Community Game Night is the stepping stone to a more cooperative community, and it helps everyone, I genuinely believe it will only get better, and that the more support it receives from players, the more it benefits them.

Can I contribute to this project?
Yes you can! We're always looking for more hosts, particularly within the EST timezone, as this will expand the amount of players who can reasonably partake, If you don't wish to host or help organize, just playing or promoting the project is more than enough, it helps more than you guys realize!!

That's about it, if there's anything I missed, or if there's any questions I'll reply to this post, feel free to get in contact with me about anything CGN related, I'm active on the discord and semi active on forums, you'll also see me on the client semi often.

Thank you guys for supporting my vision for this project!

@TheCrimsonKnight under, so u1100 is under 1100, u 1500 under 1500 etc etc

@FunkOff Some people are looking at Galatic War repos rn

Hello Everyone, following the success of the u1500 tournament, we're now hosting a u1100 tournament!

All u1100 1v1 players are allowed to participate, although those who are exceedingly higher in other ratings may be asked to queue some 1v1 games to certify they're within the right rating bracket. This tournament will be Double Elimination and Best of 3

See you there : )

Hello Everyone, with the first tournament now concluded within the collective project of Bully, Paradox Vindex and I now completed with a resounding success, I feel its time we looked a bit more outward.

We'd like to make this project as public as we can, and incentivize active participation for both enjoyment and improvement.
Currently, we have a u1100 bracket and a u1500 bracket, with the latter having finished it's first tournament, and our winner being Razana.

So without further ado, feel free to come and play in these tournaments, we plan to have these regularly and welcome casters and players alike.

As for u1900 1v1 players, is there interest in having a bracket made for you? I feel like the numbers dwindle massively due to lack of organized play and therefore loss of motivation, perhaps this will help?

If there's any questions or feedback regarding the project, feel free to approach me about it, any insights are good insights : )

@TheVVheelboy Do you think there's an available incentive to casters that FAF can offer? Or is it simply a case of waiting for the newer generation of casters to grow and find their feet a bit?
