2nd GWJ Rocket League Hat Tournament

Hello ladies and germs, and welcome to the 2nd GWJ Rocket League Hat Tournament!

*pause for cheers*

Thank you. Thank you. Settle down, now. Thanks to the great success of the previous tournament my inbox has been filled with messages of love and adoration from fellow Goodjers begging me, absolutely begging me, to put on another tournament. Folks were offering me money (in bitcoin...:/), their first born sons, and some guy even offered me an executive producer credit on the next Buckaroo Banzai movie! Worry not, brethren! The tournament is here again!

As with the last tournament, all player levels are welcome. All Goodjers are welcome. All Goodjer cats are welcome! And this time it's not a PC exclusive deal. All platforms are welcome!

The details are as follows:

When: Saturday, October 10th, 8PM Eastern US time (Sunday 12AM GMT, 9AM JST)
Where: The intertubes!
Who: You and a bunch of other Goodjers, PC and PS4, cats and dogs.
What: Uh, it's in the title. A Rocket League tournament.
Why: For fun!

As with the previous tournament, things will be coordinated through Curse Voice Beta. So get to downloading if you haven't already. And for you PS4 players, you can run it on your laptop while you play or you can use it on your phone. They have Android and iPhone apps.

We will try to make the teams even skill wise, so if you plan on attending please say so here and tell us your level (rookie, semi-pro, pro, veteran, expert, etc.) and your ranked levels if you've played ranked. This might work a bit better than the self-assessment I suggested last time.

The champions of the tournament will be anointed "Rocket League Furiosa" and join the previous tournament's winners, Hrdina, ThingumBob, and Mr. Noob, in the Hall of Folks What Are Really Good At Rocket League!

Hope to see you all there.

Yay!!! Looking forward to it.

Kronen, ~550 rating, veteran I think.

tboon, pro (hahahahahaha), what is ranked? whatever it is i am at the bottom unless it ranks number of cars blowed up

[GWJ]SpaceDog Semi-Pro and my ratings are all around 50 points, so not even bronze.

I should be able to make that time. I am at Veteren level and my rankings are all just above 400.

So are "walk-ins welcome" again?

I am going to tentatively say I'm in. Pro level but play like rookie. Not ranked.

I might have to sit this one out. Family thing that afternoon, and no guarantee when I'd be done and available. Can't even call myself tentative yet. I'd so be in if it would work. It was a blast last time.

Well, clearly I need to come back to defend 1/3 of last tournament's title. Veteran level (before Steam wiped my rank) and I can't recall my rating. I promise to only demo tboon.

Put me down as a definite absolute maybe, just like last time.

I think I am at Veteran now. I haven't played much Ranked since they reset the levels, but I think I am near the bottom of Bronze.

I may still be laughing at this line by the time the second tournament starts...

I haven't played with the GWJ group before but this sounds like something I'd like to get in on. Can someone here invite me to the steam and Curse Voice group? Or should I be asking this somewhere else?

Expert
1v1 - 861
2v2 - 879
3v3 solo - 674

invited to the steam group the curse group is a little different. You will have to friend someone up in steam and then friend them in curse then they can add you.

Ok, thanks. I'll try sending some friend invites when I see people playing Rocket League.

I'm going to try to be there.

My rank in 3s is below 50. Rank in 2s is below 300.

As far as time played, I'm level 37 or 38, which puts me a few levels from "Expert", I think, which means I'm "Expert" at not hitting the ball in the goal.

ps. Nickson cheats.

I'll try to make it, not sure if I can. Level - Pro (28 I think). Never done ranked as I despise pubbies.

Well, maybe, but this is you.

I am going to try and make it, put me down.

Sadly, I will be at the USNT game at the Rose Bowl. Enjoy without me. Vriisor -- those are killer ranks, man.

Wish I could make it.
It's Canadian Thanksgiving at my brother's place and by 8PM I'll likely be asleep on his couch with my belt loosened to make room for my enlarged belly.

*burp*

Wish I could, once again, but it cuts too close to the Patreon play-date. Have fun, folks!

I have a wedding to attend that evening so I sadly will miss this! Stupid love!

DOS A CERO por favor.

Sorry guys I made a mistake. The Bathurst 1000 is on tomorrow and I watch it every year at a buddies house where we usually have our first BBQ of the coming summer. So I won't be home in time to play.

OK. So far this is the roster according to this thread (question marks are tentatives):

Kronen
TBoom
Everything
Ragin (?)
Mr Noob
Hrdina (?)
Vriisor
Bepnewt
Ukick
Garth

10, and an unknown number of hop-ons (you're gonna get some hop-ons). Hopefully we can get at least 2 more to make 12 again for a nice group of 4 3v3 tournament. Looking forward to this as always!

Put me down as a tentative. I might be a bit late again.

Man, I'm gonna be so sad to miss this. I hope you guys have a great time!

Yeah, me too.

Between going to see The Martian with my family, and watching USA/Mexico, I won't be around tonight.

Last minute reminder for those attending. If you haven't already, friend me up on Steam and try to get Curse Voice Beta setup beforehand. It'll make things run a bit smoother!

Someone please friend me up on Steam so I can get in the Curse group.

Try "Newt" for my name. Avatar is a dude with an 80's Fro.
