		You will negotiate a time with your opponent. You will probably have a week or so for each round.

		| cmatt42 wrote on Thu, 10 April 2008 12:20 |   There is no skill involved at all. It's just whoever gets the best basekilling vehicle/infantry into the enemy base first wins.

Why not signup then? Because if you're right (and everyone who knows anything about Renegade 1v1s knows you aren't), surely you have an absolutely equal chance of winning as anybody else?

If it was a team-based tournament, you can be sure there will be more forfeits than games. 
 
We have 32 players signed up now... sorry to dtyler.

		OK, the bracket's full - the only thing to do before the tournament opens is "seeding". 
 
 
Vote in this poll to pick who you think are the eight best players. 
 
It's not necessary to vote, but it will determine who plays who in the first round.

		Spoony, you got to be kidding me. 
 
First of all, no closure date/playercount whatsoever, just a sudden post saying oh btw, signup is closed. For a match with prizes that's pretty lame. 
Second, why 1vs1's? That does perhaps show some skill, but luck will play a huge factor. Of course, experiance pays, it always does. 
Third, the map. It's easy to walk to the nod obelisk, without any kind of glitching. Even worse, with a hottie you can walk to anything but ref... In a normal match which is at least 2VS2 it wouldn't be hard to defend against this, but now it's just too easy to walk in the nod base, kill Ob and yourself, get nother hottie + ion, kill hon+air & yourself, and finish off the ref.  
Time it took: perhaps 5 mins?
