OCW World Cup?

[Pugh]

Since there's a lot of guys who seem to enjoy playing the DM Title matches around, I've come up with something else that might interest you guys as regards DMs. Basically, it's a big tournament deal, but rather than being all about the individual, its about your team of 4 men.

 

The idea can work one of two ways:

 

-We could do teams based on where a CAW is from, ie Team USA, Team Canada, Team UK, Team Rest of the World (Unless theres scope for more countries).

 

-We have several team Captains, and they just pick their team via a draft.

 

Once we have teams (This is how we'd do it with 4 teams of 4 at least), we'd split into 2 groups, and have a series of matches to determine the winner of the group. A win would be worth 3 points, a draw worth 1, and a loss worth nothing (We'd have a 15 minute time limit on all matches in order to make the draw useful).

 

The top teams would then progress into a knockout bracket against each other, and ultimately, the final would be contested by two people. The knockout stage would be seeded in order to get better match ups.

 

Ultimately, the final 1 on 1 match would decide which team wins the 2013 OCW World Cup.

 

So basically, this thread is to gauge if people would be interested, and maybe suggest ideas to how it could work. If you're interested, put your name in here, and we'll come up with something. Obviously, the more the merrier - ideally 32 people makes this idea work perfectly, but we can do it with less.

There better be a team Japan.

 

I'll be interested if its not a sub-to-win like the DM championships.

There is a Time Limit. Potentially we could also turn Knockout ON, and see what happens.

I pitched something like this to Jay for our July PPV last year to sync up with the Olympics, the only difference was I wanted to do it with different events/brackets i.e. an Ex Division Bracket, Tag Team Bracket etc with the "Main-Event" being the Heavyweight Bracket. We talked it through and we thought it would be cool if we did it via stream over one weekend to get more of a tournament/Olympic-y feel but I guess it was to big of a thing to try and pull. We did get the live streamed OCW out of it though.

I miss King of OCW.

We can do the final as a Live Unleashed Special.

[Tiberius Dupree]

I say scrap the whole 'nationality' concept, and just go full fledge survivor series.
