Rules will be exactly the same to UGC highlander league except weapon bans.

For recording, HSP should be able to record a STV demo.
We will review the other rules later.

We should have some kind of weapon bans like strange weapons, unusual hats and set hats.

Maps I suggest: cp_gravelpit, cp_granary, koth_lakeside

We can cancel stuff like half time in the UGC tournament and play less rounds instead. Like 3 rounds for CP and 4 round for KOTH? And then we can play 3 maps and the team which wins more maps wins this friendly match.

And about the time, I think Sat/Sun afternoon would be a good time too, if you are available.

Agree, we could use the rules same to UGC highlander league.
Also, I've seen the weapon banned list in UGC, I think it is fair, we can try it in future.

The maps, Shall we say that our side choose the frist one, then the second one is choosen by ur side, then the third map is random?

I could agree that we can hv a halftime. Also agree wiv u that we could play less rounds, like 3 rounds for CP and 4 round for KOTH. Then the condition to reach halftime should it be 25 minutes and after 2rounds for CP and 3rounds for KOTH?

Oh yeh, afternoon also great! Let's dicuss abt it later.

I do think reserve should not be allowed in the server during the matches to minimize the impact of ghosting (informing others of current game status / positioning). However, as long as both sides agree, we would rcon pause the server for a short period (at most 5 minutes) for the reserve to join.

50 minutes is a bit too long for koth / cp5 as matches would be resolved very quickly depending on the maps we play. 30 minutes should be enough for most maps. Also win limit per map would be 5 for cp and 4 for koth as tournament mode will be run.

As for attack defends, stopwatch is used, it will be A team attacks first , B team attacks second. (reset stopwatch) B team attacks third. A team attacks last. If there's a tie, then A team will attack first and B team attacks second with no stopwatch reset).

The half time would be the time between maps, albeit 15 minutes for both teams to rest and discuss strategies?

p.s. Rico can you add the 4 ugc scripts to the servers? Also, can you give Li7 the booking right for server MP 1 and MP 2 so his team would practice with the config running to get used to the tournament mode settings and practice if they don't have their own server?

Yes, we shall choose 1 map for each of our team and the third one could be agreed on both sides. Please suggest some maps and we can finalize it as soon as possible.

They can watch via STV when waiting. This is because STV has a slight delay from the actual game, thus minimizing the impact of ghosting.

Oh, that's great!! I was concerning that they may get bored for waiting, and they do not know wt's the game going on. As I shall make a quite high frequency of substitution to test our squad for future =]

For the third map we may randomly draw out 3 maps, then both teams eliminate one map from the pool, and we play the remaining one.
This may increase the chance for us to play maps we wanted to play, while not causing too much fairness issue

UGC lifted the ban of strange weapons. You are now allowed to use them.
Unusual hats and item sets are still banned however.

Due to current game-breaking bugs in TF2, may I suggest delaying the matches till these bugs are fixed by Valves?

I think we don't really need to worry too much, Valve should be able to fix the bug 1 or 2 days later, don't be so hasty it's not even Monday for them right now.
