Young Navigator Posted July 3, 2013 Posted July 3, 2013 Jumping back on the track! Season 2 of our Ranbats are still among us! This time, there will be some special surprises! But before that: The ranbat season ends once someone amasses 80 POINTS (special circumstances warranted this.) Once that occurs, the top EIGHT (8) scoring players will meet in a Single Elimination, 3/5 Tournament to determine the overall champion of the season. Be on your A-game, because the season can end either very quickly, or take quite some time. Now for the special surprises: 1) The player who amasses 80 points, will also get a copy of Alan Wake & Alan Wake's American Nightmare (as the prizes for last season were changed last minute.) 2) This season, point values will be decreased, in an effort to prolong the season. 3) Night of Champions will happen the week AFTER the end of the season. 4) If there is a tie for 8th at the end of the season, there will be a playoff to determine who gets that 8th place spot for Night of Champions.

Weekly, on Thursday Nights.When do weekly registrations close? Thursday Nights at 10:15pm EST. (They close at 7pm this Friday)Will there be a way for us to communicate during the ranbat? Absolutely! Here's the instructions!1: Go to http://mibbit.com/ 2: Scroll to the bottom. Click the yellow button marked "Still interested? Chat now" 3: Connect should be to "Mibbit [webirc]" (It is the default option.) 4: Nick should be your DUSTLOOP ACCOUNT NAME (just so everyone knows who you are.) 5: Channel = #FBTVRanbats Please note, everyone should be in the room by 10:15pm EST, so things can move smoothly.Is there ANYTHING else that I should know? Yes there is, and these are some of the most important things about this ranbat. 1) WILLFUL disconnects will incur a one (1) game penalty. If it happens a second time, that player forfeits the match. 2) Off-Stream Matches must be reported as soon as they are finished. You can report them yourself in Challonge, to make things easier. 3) Most importantly: Try to enjoy yourselves! This is designed to be competitive, but fun can be experienced through competition!If I miss my match, what happens? There is a 10 minute window for your match. If you miss it, you forfeit your match. If you will be late, PLEASE feel free to e-mail me at clintonbowman@outlook.comWill there be weekly updates? Yes! Check out Hit-Confirm Live every Thursday night at 9pm for the score updates, as well as for any updates to the rules. You can also go to The Official Hit-Confirm Live tumblr page!

Young Navigator Posted July 5, 2013 Author Posted July 5, 2013 I forgot to mention...I also need a commentator via skype cause Tony won't be available tonight. Any takers?
Rybuster Posted July 6, 2013 Posted July 6, 2013 (edited) I'm ready if you will have me, commentary wise. Also two entries here. Radori does not have a PC so he will go through me if it's okay.

Radori Posted July 6, 2013 Posted July 6, 2013 Can I at least get a participation point? I really wanted to enter and it's a real pain in the ass to post on here without a PC.

SwordsNStuff Posted July 14, 2013 Posted July 14, 2013 guess this is dead too ahh? RIP ranbats. you'll be missed
Spring_Raid Posted July 17, 2013 Posted July 17, 2013 If I had the same internet, I'd pick this up. My upload is only 2mbps, so the matches wouldn't look good on stream.
Young Navigator Posted July 17, 2013 Author Posted July 17, 2013 Nah, not dead. Just derailed by EVO & VxG. Going to make an announcement tonight, as soon as I finish recapping WWE Main Event for Wrestleview.com & figuring out the details of what I want to bring to the table.
Spring_Raid Posted August 1, 2013 Posted August 1, 2013 Are you still planning on doing your Ranbat series? If not, I'd actually like to start another for XBL. It would be ran on either Tuesday or Thursday.
Hypermarth Posted August 2, 2013 Posted August 2, 2013 Yes please continue it, I was really enjoying it :P
