Pool league creation

hlstriker · 06-24-2009, 09:12 PM

I have decided to make this league as I really like the idea.

Here is what I have so far, please give suggestions/comments:

Quote:

------------
+ Features +
------------
- The match will consist of 2 rounds, each round is 20 minutes.
- The whole pool system will be automated.
- There will be a website where players register their steam id.
- At the end of each match the server will send stats to the website.
- After players first connect to the server, they will be given a map vote.
+ The maps in the vote depend on how many players are in the match.

-----------
+ Website +
-----------
- Will show the current player standings.
- Will show players stats from each match.
- Will have an IRC chat room so users without an IRC client can use the league.

-----------
+ IRC Bot +
-----------
- Players will need to authorize with the bot so it can connect you with the website.
- Will notify users when to join the server, and the servers password.
- Will notify users if one of the servers needs a ringer.
- Will notify users of the score for the match when it's over.
- Will be used to join a match.

----------------
+ Class Limits +
----------------
- No sniper.
- Team size depends on other limits.

-----------
+ Servers +
-----------
- All pool league servers will run a SourceMod plugin that allows automation.
- Servers will not run any 3rd party plugin/script except the one listed above.
- While waiting for players to join for a match, the server will be on a fun map.
- Pre-match will last for 3 minutes so everyone has time to get prepared.

--------
+ Maps +
--------
- The same game type will not be played twice in a row.
- The same map will not be played again until 5 other maps have been played.
- Each map will have a min/max player limit.
- The map is chosen depending on how many players are in the pool for the night.
+ If there is a small pool the system will choose a smaller map.
+ If there is a large pool the system will choose a larger map, or have multiple groups.

----------
+ Groups +
----------
- If there is a large pool the players can be grouped.
+ Ex: Group 1 plays in Server #1, while Group 2 plays in server #2.
- If there are groups, they will be selected by points.

---------
+ Teams +
---------
- All players active for the current match will be grouped by points.

----------------------
+ Points (per round) +
----------------------
- 0.5 point for winning.
+ 0.25 if a ringer is subbed in and wins.
- 0.25 point for starting (in-game when match starts (after pre-match)).
- 0.25 point for ending (in-game when match ends).

-----------
+ Ringers +
-----------
- If there are any left over players that could not be fit on a team for any group-
these players will be assigned ringer status.
- Stay in match servers spectate team incase needed.
- If there are multiple ringers, the ringer in closest points to the player-
that left/afk will get to join.
- If a player is a ringer, they will be guaranteed a slot in the next match.

-------------
+ Going AFK +
-------------
- If a player is idle for more than 1 minute they will be subbed out.
+ Players idle during pre-match are safe.

----------------
+ Team Killing +
----------------
- TK detection will be automated.
- If a player team kills enough, they will get an infraction and kicked from the match.
+ By enough I mean helping the enemy team more than your own.
- Too many infractions will lead to a 3 week ban from all matches.

Pretty much except pickups still have teams. This way everything is always even and fun for everyone.

**squeek.** · 06-24-2009, 09:34 PM

Still has teams? The bot generates the teams in 99% of the games (when the mode is pool, which it almost always is).

hlstriker · 06-24-2009, 09:42 PM

Gah, I wish everyone in that other thread didn't say they thought it would be a good idea then. I had no idea this mode existed for the pickup channel.

Waste of 2 1/2 hours thinking of ideas

If you want, I'd be interested in working with you to get a stats system for #ff.pickup.

hlstriker · 06-24-2009, 10:01 PM

Alright that sounds good.

If you're gonna work on stats for the pickup channel, see if you can figure out a way to record the time it takes a person to get into the server from the time the pool has assigned the teams and issued out the server ip/pw.

It takes some of these people regularily 5-10 minutes just to get into a pickup.

It just sucks when a pickup has finished, a new one immediately fills up, and it still takes us another 15 minutes until we're all there and ready to go.
