The admin team has decided to change the way forfeits from the group stage qualifiers are scored. Originally, forfeits were considered as 16-0 to the team who got the forfeit win. Forfeits will now be considered as just 0-0, i.e. they are ignored in the F/A ratio calculation. If a team forfeited one match (or more), the results that all of the teams in that pool got against that particular team will NOT all be forfeits. Only the matches that were actually forfeited are considered as a score of 0-0 instead of 16-0.

Something else to note is that z3st have forfeited ALL of their matches because of their failure to upload the requested demos. Each team in Pool A has had their result against z3st turned into a 0-0.

With these changes, these are the following top 6 teams (placed 1st in their group) and bottom 6 teams (placed 2nd in their group) and their new seeds.

The final top 6:

So now, the top 6 is:
(1) Frenetic Array - 3.429
(2) Voxe Eminor - 2.857
(3) Qlimax Crew - 2.667
(4/5) MindFreak - 2.5
(4/5) Team Exile5 - 2.5
(6) Fighting 4 Freedom - 1.524

The admin team is still deciding how the final 8 teams will be split into pools for the LAN finals.

The final bottom 6:
(1) SYF Gaming - 3.524
(2) MEKA - 2.111
(3) Sequential Gaming - 1.592
(4) Endzone - 1.436
(5) Carnage - 1.122
(6) Noxious - 0.857

This means that the play-off matches for the remaining 2 spots at the LAN finals are now:

Sequential Gaming vs. Noxious Gaming (mp_strike) - 9pm, Wed 11th April.
The winner of this match will play MEKA for the first of the two remaining final invites. - 8pm, Thurs 12th April (Best of 3).

Endzone vs. Carnage (mp_strike) - 8pm, Thurs 12th April.
The winner of this match will play SYF Gaming for the second of the two remaining final invites. - 9:30pm, Thurs 12th April (Best of 3).

Qlimax would like to replay the match against the team that forfeited against us.

or at least

Meka v Sql


SYF v Endzone


was looking forward to sql v syf o well.

Another update: just realised that there was an error with the number of Points Against for Team Exile5. It was listed as 37 but it's actually 32.

So now, the top 6 is:
(1) Frenetic Array - 3.429
(2) Voxe Eminor - 2.857
(3) Qlimax Crew - 2.667
(4/5) MindFreak - 2.5
(4/5) Team Exile5 - 2.5
(6) Fighting 4 Freedom - 1.524

is SYF going to be seeded number 1 in the lan if they make it in? rofl!!!

AFAIK, the bottom 6 teams are only playing for the 7th and 8th spot, so no.

Oh dear now syf are rifting their way through lol. It should be us and SQL going through, the fact that either syf, carnage or noxious are in top 8 is disgusting.

Realistically the seeds should be the order they were put into the competition.

Also they lost a game, so no, they will be seeded 7th if they make it through.


Thanks for the understanding of the teams at this late stage. As Samson said to me earlier - it makes sense, to do it this way, and we are ensuring the fairest results in pool ACTUAL PLAY become the adjudication, not the luck of turning up to an empty server. Teams aren't being penalised, just fairly rated on their points differential.

One team that was a surprise from the start loses out in this instance, but at the same time the seeding overall shapes as much fairer, and as a consolation, the AusCoD admins now have a solid model for the future.

Apologies to Vires for the drama they had befoul them, and also to the EndZone and Carnage boys for having to scramble the schedule to best fit ensuring teams can book the necessary things to attend the Melbourne LAN event.

Hey swiftz m8, EAD.

Good work admins, see you @ melb edge+bullet <3

So how come all the teams auto birthed have won 5 matches, we have also won 5 matches in a pool with 2 CGP teams and we are not auto birthed? Our ratio is the same.

Dot 2 Under the Nvidia Gear Up For Battle Call of Duty 4 Tournament INFORMATION - 1 STATES

Final berth qualification and seedings will be based on the following ranking criteria:1. Win Loss Ratio
e.g. 5 wins and 1 loss, places higher than 4 wins and 2 losses.

I'm not sure if you simply missed this or miscalculated, I'm also not in any way attempting to have a go. I just want what the rules STATE to be implemented. Can you please fix this or CIVILLY explain to me why in our particular situation the rule is void.
