Open teams, sign up! The #1 way to keep your team alive through the offseason and come out stronger in S21 is to keep gaming, and picking 1-2 nights a week to play a couple maps in a competitive environment is an unprecedented opportunity for Open teams. Sign up!
Sign up, do it now. I don't care whether you know if all your gamers will be able to play or not, find the fraggers and subs later, it's easy af to add people to your Razer roster whenever, there's not even a roster lock.
I swear all this community does sometimes is whine about no tournaments ever and boohoo why won't anyone recognize us as esports, and then here's a huge $1000 month-long tournament on an amazing platform with Swiss system and it's been like 5 days since registration opened and there's no more than 3 teams for any of the tournaments, 1-2 for most of them.

no shit. And that will be exactly why third party TF2 tournaments never last. No teams sign up, no one supports the companies that try and support us. everyone just complains about start times, match days, holidays, "why sunday, why not Monday", then its on monday and people say "why monday, why not sunday". There is no pleasing the COMP TF2 scene.
if any razer pug team thing needs a player hmu i will play!!
I just registered the Friend Team for every day. Time to play some TF2!
Registration closes in roughly 24 hours.
NA has 2 teams signed up.

don't blame low signups on the "tf2 community", the format isn't getting CSGO teams either even though CSGO consistently filled up the previous one day tournaments. my team will be signing up tonight. Also the Monday one would never have gotten many signups because MOST teams have people that play highlander, which always has matches exactly when the razed matches are supposed to start.

I don't think anyone asked for monday, it is absolutely the least available day for competitive TF2 players in america as UGC matches are almost never rescheduled.
you guys realise you can play any day of the week right
Due to a lack of registrants we will be modifying the format of the event.
The qualifiers have been condensed from 5 separate tournaments to a single tournament. The qualifier is played over the course of 3 weeks with 2 matches played on the same day of the week every week.
The top 16 teams will advance to the Single Elimination Playoff brackets.
We will be pushing the start date of the event back by one week and matches are scheduled by default for Thursday Wednesday. Check out the schedules and matches page for specific details on match dates and times.

The only problem I can see with this is that most etf2l matches are scheduled to be played on thursdays. Though next week is the last week of the season it's not a huge issue but still might keep some people out of it.
At the end of the day any matches we attempt to do are not going to agree with someone. We are going to do the best we can, if you can make it I will energetically be awaiting you in the match lobby. Otherwise, hopefully next time. :(
Ofcourse, not making any excuses, just thought it'd be useful to know. I'll definitely try to see if my team can get our razer matches in before our etf2l matches.
Understood and certainly appreciated. :) Hope to see you all there!
the new change is a lot better, really hope a lot more teams are able to show up this time! the previous format was kinda hard to follow tbh. ascent is signed up now.
And make sure to update the OP so people know its changed.

I wasn't aware of anything happening today, the Razer site says the event starts on the 11th. What is there to cover today?

oh fuck... sorry my bad. I read it badly.
Pardon me.
P.S. Here it says it starts on the 8th, not on the 11th. Am I yet again wrong?

The tournament that you have linked is a practice cup which offers Razerstore vouchers as prizes to the first place winners. They do not act as qualifiers to the primary Monthly Mayhem playoffs.
I've been putting together the comp.tf page for this tournament, it can be found here: http://comp.tf/wiki/Game_Sense_Monthly_Mayhem
Any feedback and/or edits would be appreciated.

bump, signups end tomorrow. let's get some more teams
Sucks how poorly ETF2L promoted this, could've seen more signups if at least 1 admin bothered making a News Post, yet it was made like 6 hours before registration end...Not everyone reads TF TV or ETF2L forums, EU could've had more signups if there was an exposure.
Also sucks that they are not even promoting Dreamhack, an important European Tf2 event :/
Step it up, Etf2l...
