BitFighter Fridays instead.

May as well just make it BitFighter Fridays on Odd Days. Everytime a Friday is on an odd day, we try to host a competitive game, with novelty maps and party maps after.

In the past we've had competitive play on all kinds of maps. But I think this time around it would be fun to try an arena-like theme. The maps should be as consistent as possible across game types. In map-series One, Two maps will exist for each game type: one sized for 2-4 per team, and one sized for 5-8 per team. The two maps will have many of the same elements, but the larger map will have unique features of its own.

Teams can be registered as exactly 4 players.
A person can register as many teams as they can fill.
All teams must have an animal mascot or at least a cool name; it's not a rule, but come on.

Each player can be on as many teams as they want.

This way, no matter who shows up, we can have team rivalries.

Of course some teams maybe more determined than others to show up every week.


Maybe we can make a mod that will auto name the teams depending on who's playing.

I'm on board with everything except consistent maps ... We've done similar things in the past and I dunno, things can get pretty stale that way.

But I'd love to do this. Friday is a good night for me, and it would be pretty badass to get an in-game Brotherhood of the Quartz going ;)

I like the idea of a routine party but I would say once a week is better than once every two weeks, obviously not everyone will make once a week but at least that way you establish a rhythm and get something going.

One idea to try would be competitive games at 9:00pm and casual games at 10:00pm, times just an example but that way people could choose to show up to which they wanted so there wasn't awkward waiting around for casual players.

There's a ton of fun things we can do with Bitfighter going forward but what needs to happen first and foremost is just consistently playing the game. The discord chat and facebook/twitter platforms are great for getting the word out, now we just got to start playing then roll out more intense features later. My 2c.

I think maybe have the consistent (repetitive) maps at a designated time, and more general play before and/or after it. Playing one of each game type at 4:50 wouldn't be all too long.
