|||| Type of Tournament ||||
This will be a Double Elimination style tournament. That means if you lose twice, you're out. One "match" between teams will consist of one game of Supply Raid, one game of Survivors, and then a tie breaker game of Interrogation, should it come to that. Supply Raid will be played on the Lakeside map, Survivors will be played on High School, and Interrogation will be played on The Dam. All the maps are going to be the same across the tournament so we don't have to worry about voting or anything like that.
|||| Protocol ||||
UPDATE IF YOU ARE PAST ROUND THREE
The Maps for Round 4 and the Semi Finals will be
Supply Raid - University
Survivors- Capitol
Interrogation - Checkpoint
The Maps for the Finals will be
Supply Raid - Bill's Town
Survivors - Bookstore
Interrogation - Coal Mine.

First of all, I'd like to apologize for adding to the huge amount of Last of Us threads, but this is important! Let's get right to it, but know that this is my first time running one of these, so I am open to all help and reasonable suggestions!
----------------------------------------------
1| Introduction
Naughty Dog was cool enough to add in a private match option into TLOU, so we're going to take advantage of it. Are you a bad enough dude
to beat out all the other gaffers? Battle other teams while all of GAF
watches you on Twitch. Down your enemies and execute a victory to claim some sweet prizes for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd.
---------------------------------------
2| Down to Business
-Prizes will, at the very least, involve $60 worth of my own PSN vouchers divided between the winning team. It's pretty small for that amount of people, so I'm also taking donations for even more prizes for anyone, so feel free to donate! Unless you say otherwise, I will thank everyone who donates something to the prize pool at the bottom of the OT. Let's make this the greatest GAF tournament ever. Anything you put in you have a chance to win back!
-All games will be streamed and will be archived for those who can't watch live. Thanks to the beautiful next gen future, the PS4 makes it incredibly easy to stream, so every single epic match will be viewable by anyone who wants to. As far as I know, this is one of the first GAF tournaments that will have this audience aspect.
-You must form your own teams before registering. You cannot register by yourself. Use this thread to get a group together. Registration format is below.
-Once the match times are set, you have ten minutes after the match time to get your team together or you forfeit the game, barring PSN being down or TLOU servers being down. Scheduling is going to be a challenge on it's own, so unfortunately I'm not going to reschedule against both teams agree to it, sorry
.
-This tournament, while still serious, is sort of a test run. I'd be down to run it again if there is still interest.
-Restrictions: I have decided to not bar any weapons, loadouts, or anything like that from the tournament. I don't think I'll be changing my mind on this.
-Game Modes: Survivors and Supply Raid
-Once we have entrants, I'll be posting the teams PSN ids and GAF ids so that everyone can be in contact with each other.
-You can have non GAF members on your team, but obviously I'd prefer it if they were made of all gaffers. Half of your team must be composed of gaffers
-I'm using the website called Challonge to keep track of everything. I'll post the link in a bit.---------------------
3 | Sounds Good, What Do You Need From Me?
Register a team by posting in this format:
Team name (come up with something cool to name your team!)
Team Member 1 PSN/GAF ids
Team Member 2 PSN/GAF ids
Team Member 3 PSN/GAF ids
Team Member 4 PSN/GAF ids
General availability times (This will be just for my reference when I go through and begin talking to everyone and getting the schedules worked out.)
Example:
The Luca Goers
Gaz_RB/Gaz_RB
Gaz_RB/Gaz_RB
Gaz_RB/Gaz_RB
Gaz_RB/Gaz_RB
I have no life, so between 12am and 12am everyday

Last notes:
TEAM REGISTRATION ENDS 11:59 pm EST on WEDNESDAY AUGUST 6TH (Deadline extended because of changes to tournament rules and meaty additions to the prize pool. I appreciate everyone who got in before the previous date.)
After that date, I will begin setting up the schedule. I'm shooting for most matches taking place over that next weekend, but we'll see depending on how much interest there is. But you'll have about a week to practice with your team beforehand.
I will also be competing. I don't really see any conflict of interest as all games will be streamed and requires no judging. If a lot of people have problems with that though, I won't hesitate to drop out.
Use this topic to help find a team. I'm sure some gaffers would love to team up.
Thanks for reading, and hopefully registering! I know I'm missing details, so as you remind me and as I remember them, they will be added to the OP.
