| Medals, Medals and more Medals... |

Congratulations, we hope you had fun in our Season 6.
We are in the middle of sending out our Season 6 Highlander Medals.
Over 5000 total will be sent to our players, who we thank for a tremendously fun season of highlander action.
 Status of distribution:
As of Thursday afternoon, all title winner medal Sets have been given out, except for 3 east European teams with a technical problem for that medal.. It should be fixed soon.
Also all Platinum, Silver and Steel bracket participation medals are distributed. If anyone, or any team is missing a medal contact me this week.
Over 5000 medals distributed in 3 days!
We had a lot of fun designing medals this season, with all sorts of changes before finding a set of medals that Valve accepted.
Ruskeydoo did an outstanding job (again), redesigning the medals a few times to meet differing requirements.
This is the final set in the picture, he made them for YOU!
Thanks very much to Ruskey for his work, and to Infinite for managing the medal process.
And Many thanks to the folks at Valve, for everything.
Don't have your medal yet?
We should get to your team soon, please give us a couple of days. If you are worried, login into UGC on the steam link, your Player Page will show the medal you are set to receive. If you have any problems, contact an admin.

Hey there UGC,
eXtv is casting 3 of the UGC Highlander Final matches on the night of Monday, April 30. All three are platinum-level finalist events, so each match should be all sorts of fun!
Starting of at 7:30 PM EST, we've got the South American Platinum HL finals between Socios and BerSerKers. Socios is from Chile and BsK is from Brazil, so both teams will be fighting to take home the victory for their country! Should be a great match with lots of action on Gullywash and Granary.
Socios vs. BerSerKers
Time: 7:30PM EST
Site: http://www.twitch.tv/extvesports
Casters: Moose and Mikal
At 9:30 PM eXtv will be covering TWO matches: Both the championship match between Looking and GG and the fight for third place between bonus! and uBs. Both Looking and GG have 12-1 records and host some of the biggest names in North American Highlander, so this match, played on Viaduct_pro and Gullywash!
Looking vs. GG
Time: 9:30PM EST
Site: http://www.twitch.tv/extvesports
Casters: Mikal and Hexagrams
Bonus! points and uBs (Unbelievably Brave Sweethearts) are fighting for third place at the same time as the championship match. The action will be just as hot, with the teams facing off on Steel and Badwater.
Bonus! vs. uBs
Time: 9:30PM EST

Casters: Salamancer and Moose
We all hope to see you there!

| Playoffs Match 4 - Finals! |
Fornaught
Wed, 4/25/2012 |
The final matches to determine our division championships will be played this coming week. Remember that each playoff bracket will have two final matches, one to decide 1st and 2nd place, and a runoff match to determine 3rd and 4th place.
Congratulations to all the teams involved.
Maps
Our final matches are played in a 2/3 Map style. Depending on the maps picked, this can be a considerably long night of tf2, make sure your players are ready!
Map 1 -The home team for the match picks this map, from the maps played in our regular season. Teams play to the same Win conditions as a regular season match. For example, if the team picked cp_granary you play until one team caps 5 times. This is considered a "Map Win" in the finals.
The home team picks the server to play on and starting color for this map. For finals, all rounds of Map 1 are played on Home team's server choice.
Map 2 - The visiting team for the match picks this map, from the maps played in our regular season. Teams play to the same Win conditions as a regular season match. For example if the team picked cp_gravelpit, you play two whole rounds of stopwatch, with a 3rd tiebreaker round if needed. This is considered a "Map Win" in the finals.
The Visiting team picks the server to play on and starting color for this map. For finals, all rounds of Map 2 are played on Visiting team's server choice.
Tiebreaker / The Win
If one teams wins both Maps 1 and Map 2, then that team is the finals match winner.
If teams split wins on Map 1 and Map 2, then a 3rd Map is played.
The default map for Map 3 is Koth_ashville_rc1. Teams can also agree to play a 3rd Map of their choice. However I recommend teams stick with our default map as its familiar to every team and is a shorter map than other types.
For Map 3, Home team has server choice and starting color choice.
Post Your Team's Map Pick in Match Comms
Each team will have until Friday midnight (Eastern Time) to post their map pick in our Match comms system.
If you do not pick a map then admins will assign a map for your team by posting in your match comms on Saturday morning.
Eligible Maps
All regular season maps can be picked: pl_badwater, cp_warmfront, cp_follower, koth_lakeside, cp_gullywash_final1, cp_steel, pl_swiftwater_ugc, ctf_turbine_pro_b1, koth_pro_viaduct_rc3, cp_granary, pl_upward, koth_ashville, cp_gravelpit
Use the regular season server configs for each map type.
Post your Maps played in your match report when you submit scores.
Good Luck and may the best team win!

Fornaught
Sun, 4/22/2012 |
Greetings,
Our playoff elimination continues with a well known Attack/Defend map. Only the strongest will prevail to the end of our Season 6 Finals. Use teh server cfg "ugc_HL_stopwatch.cfg", for Stopwatch rules in a best 2 of 3 Match Rounds. (Possible scores for the match are 2-0 or 2-1 only). We are playing the default cp_gravelpit map, no need for any other versions.
Keep an eye on our forums for more information about All-Star nominations and voting.
Our summer Highlander season 7 is being setup now. Our starting date is the first week of june, and more details will be announced next week.
Team leaders for existing teams will each receive an team invite to season 7 as soon as our season 6 is completed.
New teams will be able to apply to join Highlander in one week.
Good Luck to all teams playing in our 3rd elimination playoff week, and thanks to all teams for playing this season.
