NintendoPals 1st Official Halo 3 ODST Firefight Tournament

NintendoPals Official Halo 3 Doubles Tournament



Welcome to NintendoPals 1st Official Halo 3 Doubles Tournament. I Splodey, am very proud to host this, and I hope it is a huge success.

Like the title says, Team Doubles is the name of the game.

Requirements to enter:

- Post count of 50
- You must have an Xbox Live Gold Membership
- You must have a copy of Halo 3 available now
- You must be able to complete matches as deadlines are posted


Match Rules:

This tourney is going to follow the best 2/3 match format. Which means each team gets to pick a map of their choice once, and then if a third match is needed you will use the map Guardian. You can't dispute the other teams map choice unless it isn't an approved map, or you don't have it downloaded.

The matches need to use these settings: Team Slayer, score to win 25 kills, starting weapon BR, secondary weapon AR, radar on, and everything else default.


The following maps are allowed:

Assembly*, Blackout*, Cold Storage*, Construct, Epitath & Epilogue, Foundry*, Guardian, Isloation, Narrows, Sandbox*, Snowbound & Boundless, and The Pit & Pit Stop. If caught using custom maps (different weapons, spawns, power-ups etc.) you and your teammate will be automatically DQed.

*Downloaded maps

You can choose your own partner, but if you choose to enter it by yourself you will be randomly paired up with somebody.

Good luck to all!

Teams: Limit of 8 teams (16 people)

Official Tournament FAQ


When does each tournament start?

For an up to date schedule of all upcoming tournaments, check out the posted calendar. We try to keep the tournament for each active game regular, but there may be periods of time when the tournaments slow down slightly or change.


Can I get a tournament started for ‘so and so game’?

Generally speaking, tournaments will be running for all of the currently active games. If there’s a game that you have, and you want an official tournament to be hosted for it, show that that game has enough interest in the correct forum. Perhaps with a poll or a simple thread. A minimum of 8 Players are required before an official tournament can be started, any less and it just is not worth it.


How can I join these official tournaments, and what are the rules?

The specification to join each tournament, and the rules will be displayed in the first post of the tournament thread. One of the most basic rules that apply to all tournaments is that individuals are required to have a minimum post count before joining, usually around 40+ or 50+ posts.


What if I don’t think the rules are fair or I have a suggestion on how to make the tournament better?

Contact the host of the tournament to share your ideas or thoughts, it is entirely up to them if they change the rules or add your idea. All in all, if you don’t like the rules then don’t join the tournament.


I don’t have enough posts, can I still join?


The simple answer is no. On some rare occasions, it may be the case that you are one of the few people interested in that specific tournament, and so you will be allowed to join. V.I.P’s are exempt from the posts requirement rule.


Can I enter more then one tournament at the same time?

By default, yes, you can, unless the tournament specifically says otherwise. It is however your responsibility to meet the deadlines for each tournament that you have joined. In other words don’t join every or multiple tournaments if you cannot keep with them and/or finish them.


I don’t like this whole ‘first come first serve’ rule, I always miss the tournament because of that.

We’ve found that this is the best way to host a tournament, therefore that is the rule that we are sticking with. We can’t take reservations because not only would we be bombarded with messages every day, but then other members would never get the chance to participate in a tournament. There is a variety of tournaments offered, and at a steady enough rate to cater to everyone. To help you even more, there is the calendar so you can keep an eye out on an up coming tournament you may be interested in. Staff members are also from different regions and time zones, so you can expect that tournaments will be started at a variety of times for various regions.


How do I get disqualified (DQ) from a tournament?

There are a number of ways for this to happen, and each tournament will list these reasons in the first post of the tournament thread.

Some examples would be:

- Having multiple accounts.

- Lying about results.

- Cheating on the respective game.

- Arguing with whoever is in charge of that tournament.

-Being disrespectful to other members of the tournament.

- Various things deemed ‘stupid’ or ‘irresponsible’, as long as they are serious enough to warrant a DQ.

It’s usually pretty obvious when you’re doing something that would or should result in a DQ. If any person participating in a tournament has an issue with another person in the tournament (thinks they are cheating, are being harassed), contact the host of the tournament and it will be appropriately dealt with.


What is a Sub/reserve, and how do I become one?

These positions are given out for 2 main reasons:

- In case a tournament member drops out, the next reserve player in line can take their place, and allow the tournament to continue smoothly.

- It allows more members to be involved with a tournament. If you are subbed in, you get the chance to win the whole tournament.


What if I sign up for a tournament but can’t finish it and have to drop out?

Please give a lot of consideration into the time and effort you are going to have to put out before you sign up for a tournament. Once you are signed up and begin a tournament it is difficult to keep things running smoothly if people start to drop out and not finish matches. While it is understood that issues do come up and that sometimes it is just impossible to finish what you’ve started.
Please try your best to complete all of your assigned matches and to have respect for the other tournament members by finishing it.
