[Xpilot-hacks] PermaCup server

[<xph...@sp...>]

Hi everybody,

I've made a couple of php/html pages connected to a database that enable 
teams to compete in a cup-like manner (albeit with all games/both legs of 
a match happening on the same server). The matches are not supposed to be 
played on a single day, but continiously over a longer timespan - new 
teams enter at the bottom of the ranking and have to fight their way up by 
challenging the next higher ranking team.

I am running the PermaCup on chaos, you can participate and get more 
details at:

The system is still in a testphase to find bugs and problems, but all 
important functionality is present and we already successfully played a 
couple of matches without any major problems.

I would like to encourage you to register your player nick and form a team 
with one or two other guys and try it out! Every player can be in several 
teams, so there is no reason to not form a team - if you have another good 
combination in mind, just form both teams.

As a sidenote: There are many one-player-teams in the rank right now for 
testing, but as duels are boring, I would like to get rid of them when 
enough "real" teams are registered.

Have fun,
