ATR Cup June Proposal

OK what does everyone think about making June an all comers month. Basically anyone who shows up will be officially counted in the results. With the details to be published in advance on tmdirt - so others know about it.

I haven't got a problem with that. Also it's a good way to promote ATR.

hmm...
why not...
but I like the fact that we are only inviting 1 or 2 teams too...

sounds good for a change

Dont see why not as there was more interest from NWT than O.M this month anyway

well, free for all?? hmmm.......

why not?

Fine by me !

Don't know. I guess that it's good to have a competition mainly for us, but if everyone agree's, why not..

As we see in the finals, this IS after all OUR cup

fine by me

I say we give it a try, but review after 1 month.

That said something is missing from the ATR Cup this year, can't quite put my finger on it though. Last year we had a more restrictive access and seemed to have more players from the competing teams running.

Maybe we should start to inviting ONLY one team instead of 3, and we should keep contact with the team for reminding there's new maps or there's a final.

Not saying you didn't MJ, but we should remind them like 5 times a day xD

The problem is, that in May and in June, if we put it free for all, ATR player will win again, because the rest of the comers will not make all the tracks or will no be aware of the day and time for the finals.

We really should make this our Cup, cause it's not working the other way arround, no? Agree with Bada

Currently, 2 teams are being invited. Mj always leave messages on other team's forums when a week is over, when the finals are, to put standings and videos. This is enough in my opinion. We invite other teams but we cannot force them that much to play it, they must feel challenged to do so.

For me it's much more a matter of why ppl are losing interest in the Cup, and i mean ATR riders AND other teams too, after all only 10 members played last finals.

I keep saying this again and again, but it has everything to do with the team current status. And the Cup is a good way to see how other teams are seeing ATR at the moment. Not really well as u can see.

True.

The invite is out there already on tmdirt

So we see how things go - obviously in the last month we have had strong repeat performance from a few guest drivers and they have continued to make laps over multiple weeks.

As for inviting teams - well you never quite know what will happen - keen expressions of participation on their own forums dont always translate to showing up on the server.

As for the open cup server - its been some time since there has been a password on the cup server - and prior to that the same password was used for months on end during quartocup.

Go go keep it up MJ, let's see in the end of this month what we need to do to make this competition FRESH!

I can discus some things with you after this cup, maybe we can present something better. We'll see!
