Id love to see some Quake 3(live) fighting for bitcoins.

Maybe someone should contact IDsoftware asking them to implement this on quakelive servers? And the spectators could bet on the winner as well.
Damn! Imagine that.

This kind of betting could also be easily managed off the servers, like in a forum thread or something, before the match.

Quake 3 FTW!! CTF tournaments would be awesome Smiley

Seems like Quake 3 will be the second tournament if this goes well =)

minecraft is for 10 year old girls

im not surprised garr is one

Right.

Awesome idea! Definitely would play. If you want, I could help host a couple servers?

Thanks for the offer! I think I can do most hosting myself but I'll keep it in mind =).

Alright, so, the first game will be in Minecraft, would you guys prefer Free For All or in brackets and then 1 on 1?

Hehe, that would be great. The prize in BTC would probably be just be a pot formed from buy-ins. I could give out prizes myself and make the tournaments free but then I'd go poor pretty quickly =P

Eitherhow, seems like a very positive response! I'm up for making this, and I will. Probably Minecraft will be the first game, unless many people have objection. I'll also make the first match probably 8-10 players, and a free roll with a prize pot of 0.1BTC. (Again, I'm not rich, but hey, it's 10$.)

So, the first match will be a Minecraft one. QUESTIONS.

How many players would you guys find preferable?
What timezone is most friendly for all? What time is most friendly?
Brackets and then one on one till the finals, or a massive FFA (the risk of this is teams)

Probably 4-10 players.

8:00 PM PST would probably be a good choice.

FFA would be very fun Smiley

Great. When would you have this ready by? I'll tip ya BTC0.25 if we can have a match tonight Cheesy

o.o

That would be a very short-notice and unorganized and unofficial match. I can't buy hosting + domain, set a site up and host a game before tonight =P The tip is nice but that's near to impossible. (Note: It's 11PM here, I stay up late, but even then, I can't find people to play with and buy-in this quickly.) Also, the first match would probably be Minecraft, not a FPS.

Yeah I was an admin on BitcoinTerror and it was a really fun project Smiley

The main problem was aimbots, which were extremely easily obtainable for the game they used.

I know we could develop a similar thing for CS:S because it has excellent plugin compatability. Something truly awesome though, would be to develop this for BF2, the best FPS ever in my opinion!

Edit: I just reached out to the developer to see if he'd be interest in creating this Smiley

If you think you have the know-how to make this happen, I will be happy to bring funding to the project, rent a server, domain etc.

I can do most of it myself, such as small needed plugins, site, etc. And no, I won't request funding. I'll use my own money, if this goes wrong, I don't want to have wasted anyone's time and money. Thanks for all the positive answers from everyone =). And yeah, aimbots are a problem. For the first MC tournament I'm probably going to use 1.5.2 and good anti-cheat protection.

This is a cool, and even tried before

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/play-fps-and-earn-bitcoins-89506
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/kill-and-earn-bitcoins-88169

but I guess it wasn't worth it. If you can include many games, and like poker tournaments have like a free roll feature, I can see it being big.

Yeah, it's like bitterror, it has so much potential, with the right supervision and anti-cheat it can go well.

Build it.. and they will come.

What do you mean by this?
It's an old quote meaning "if you have a product/service/location, people will come and participate in it".

Ah, I see. Guess I'll try it out then! Not sure what game I'd do first.
Minecraft please.
