This thread has been created for the purpose of tracking results in the April/May 2010 2v2 Demigod Community Tournament.
Current status: WINNER! - King_Of_Thorns + Zen_God
Round 1a began at 5PM on 4/21/2010 and ended at 11:59PM EST on 4/30/2010.
Round 1b began at Midnight on 5/1/2010 and ended at 11:59PM EST on 5/7/2010.

Players responsible for hosting and scheduling their own matches. Then, the winning team must provide a replay and a link to the pantheon stats here for tracking purposes, for every game played. Please feel free to use this thread get your matches scheduled.
There will be a need to disqualify teams that aren't making the required effort to get their games in without penalizing another team that's doing whatever they can to get a match scheduled. It's probably best if teams that are trying to organize matches go on record in the forums. For instance, if I was playing against say AtMa and Ba, I'd post something like the following in this thread:
Atma + Ba: trouser and pacov are generally available M-F from 5pm EST - 1AM EST. Please let us know if some time in that slot would work for you or recommend a time slot that works. I'll PM you in a few days if I haven't heard from you or we can discuss this on lagwars vent.
Something like that. If it comes down to disqualifying teams because they didn't get their match in, the more info and tracking you have indicating that you did your best to get the match scheduled the better.
Here is the FINAL bracket - UPDATED 6/5/2010
Tournament Rules:
How will we handle crashes:
If there is a game crash, the players involved in that match should see if they can come to a consensus on the probable outcome of the match. If there is no clear winner, the 2 teams should replay the match using the exact same demigods and sides (light/dark). If there was a clear winner at that point in the game, then that team should be awarded the win. If the 2 teams disagree on the outcome, a third party will review the replay of the match and render a decision. Be aware that the 3rd party must agree that a specific team was going to win or the results will be thrown out and the match redone.
How we will handle invalid game states:
The lastgamereplay file is still created in the event of an invalid game state, so it is still possible to review the results of a match. In the event of an invalid game state, players should attempt to resolve the issue exactly the same way as game crashes. If you believe foul play occurred, submit the replay along with any screen shots, etc, as evidence and we will review. If there is a CLEAR consensus that a team is willingly triggering invalid game states, that team should be disqualified after a thorough review of the facts. Please be reasonable, though. We all know that Demigod has its bugs and its still pretty easy to encounter an invalid game state even if no one has intentionally triggered it. If your game does crash, it might be advisable to take a screen shot of the crash as proof. Be aware that we know invalid game states can occur without any sort of foul play, so please be mindful when submitting requests for review.
Prizes:
Outside of prestige in our small community, there is also a cash prize thanks to community contributions. The total (and probably final) amount paid for this tournament is $200. If you would like to contribute to the pot, please pm me and I'll get you the needed info to send me a payment. If individuals do not come through on their pledges, I will not be personally covering the difference. My goal is to collect the pledged amount before the tournament starts and I will be providing updates as I receive the pledged money.
Please thank our contributors and consider contributing to the prize yourself.

There will definetly be some epic replays that I will HAVE to watch. Can't wait to see some suprises and some weird build orders that dominate.
I want to give Hax a chance to play if he acknowledges he's breathing. Achillies pm'd me a few days ago letting me know he has no idea where this Hax fellow is and would rather not get knocked out of the tournament because someone committed to play and then pissed off.
I say let's give it through the weekend for Hax to contact Achillies - if he fails to do so, I'm fine with Achillies finding another partner, but not with the substitution thing unless you want to officially be on his team, Ninki. If hax stands us up after committing, I want him out of the tournament completely. Anyone have any different thoughts on the matter? I don't think its fair to penalize Achillies (or Hax for that matter if he's simply a little slow to respond).
thanks for helping me try to find him and letting me still compete in the tournament, i appreciate it
i'm fine giving haxthias a few more days to see if he returns, but after that i'm pretty sure he's not going to appear anymore.
and i'll gladly take you as a sub ninki
passfail and prozombe: how about tomorrow (saturday) around 6ish EST. I can probably play then and I think chiefy can too.
Intahnets! I gotz it. I just need someone to test a game with me just to see. I'm getting around 250-280 ping. I think it might be good for a 2v2
But apparently irek wants to take you away from me
I figure I'll slip this mention in here one time. We had a very challenging match between 2 teams in the tournament that are composed of tier 1 players (it was just a scrimmage, but playing exactly by tournament rules). I made a bit of a write up on gamereplays, so please check it out ever there if you are interested. This will probably give you an idea of what to expect from some of the teams in the tourney. http://www.gamereplays.org/demigod/replays.php?game=51&show=details&id=121407&st=0#post7165339. If you'd like to comment, please do so over there (especially considering that we all have to post our tournament replays over there - might be time to open an account there (free)).
Ill be there
Pacov I reckon its time to lock the other post
Well I didnt see u postin here. Have ur boy back lol
I am quite bussy with work so u guys can go for it.
passfail and prozombe: looks like 3 out of 4 of us can be there, without hearing from prozombe. So we will tentatively move forward with a game tonight at 6pm EST. Chiefy01 or I will be hosting, a little before 6 (5:45 ish). Game name will be "Tourney" pw: "demigod."
See you there. Looking forward to it.
passfail and prozombe: we hosted the above game from 5:45 til 6:15 pm EST, but didn't see you guys. I know prozombe hadn't confirmed that he could make it, but we tried anyway. The next time that would work for us is tomorrow (sunday the 25th) at noon EST, which would be 6pm for passfail. I will definitely be on tonight, but chiefy may not be able to. Reply here or PM me if you want to try then and I'll try to get chiefy on.
Doh! I wanted that replay, too.
Grahf666 / Howboutnoooo. Messaged both of you today, as you said you would both be available this weekend. Neither of you responded when you were online. Please specify a time you would like to play the game, Kalel and I are available pretty much all weekend in the afternoon - night.
Sorry guys i had to step away from computer for a while, but am here now if anyone can play, will be on a while
prozombe: no problem. if i thought we could find passfail, we could try now.
[/quote]Yeah.... Jaws is a bit busy with work and a fun friday night this week so we were planning on being online Saturday evening from like 7-10 so perhaps we can get our games in then.[/quote]
I'm idling in vent right now cow. I could probably get our games in after all. If Wong is online (I see jaws in vent) message me and we can get this in.
Our round is now completed and me and prozombe are victorious. They replays should be up soon.
Looking forward to that Sedna-TB mirror.
Congrats on moving forward. Please provide links to the matches in the pantheon along with replays for each game. Once you do that, I'll update the bracket along with the OP.
Although it pains me to post our own loss, I have both the replays and told the guys I would put them up.

@awuffle: You would think that it would be interesting, but it really wasn't. They owned us right from the beginning. The second game was much closer, and pretty much turned on them getting giants right after catas, and me waiting too long to sell everything to counter it. We we shocked they had the cash, cause it had been pretty even throughout, and we certainly didn't have it, and we just didn't react well.
All credit to Passfail and Prozombe, they played two good games, and we wish them luck with the rest of the tourney.
@Teseer. Sorry, I didn't really do your TB justice in either of these games. I will work on getting up some replays where I do play well. Still, if you take the time to watch them, I'd like to hear what you have to say. I know I did a lot of things wrong (like lose) but I'd be curious to hear what you think. If you do PM me maybe, or post it on your build thread, so that we don't clog up Pacov's thread here.
Ouch that hurts, Jorune and Naur, we are supposed to be playing in 12 minutes. Where r u guys. Well we may have to reschedule hopefully not though. Anyway please let me know wat is going on, I will be signed on to Demigod.
xXxXAchilliesXxXx we need to get together so just email me at pstevell@gmail.com or I have teamspeak and vent if you want to meet up there. You can also hit me up under steam as haxthias if you want.
So far neither shred nor exile has responded and my window for the next week is about to close... Who's gonna forfeit if they didn't play now (past three days) when I could play and I can't play when they (hopefully) can play in the next three days!?
Online right now, sent you a pm and jaws a pm.
wow dude thanks for not responding to my pm and taking forever to get back to me...i'd much rather go with irek at this point as we have hardly any time to train now
