*done editing for today.* Seeing as there seems a bit of confusion as to how the site works where clanmatches are played, I decided to write a guide about it. Topics covered:
Registering To start things off, lets make sure we're signed up to the correct site, so from the iAMgaming forums, follow the link that leads you to www.fraggednation.com - www.fraggednation.com by clicking 'ladders'.  From this page you have to find the aptly named button 'signup'.  This is where you fill in your deepest and darkest secrets, once you're done click accept. This is probably where you'll get an e-mail from the site, this e-mail contains a 'confirmation link' which you'll have to click in order to register your account.  Now we can use the just as aptly named 'login' button (after filling in your account name and pa**word, ofcourse).  Creating and managing a team A**uming you didn't just sign up to the site for the fun of it, now click 'Join a ladder' in order to.. join a ladder. Note that it is adviced to have your captain manage challenges between teams from a PC and not the Ps3 browser, it will take FOREVER.  Here you pick a ladder you wish to 'compete' in. The 'Style' means in what manner the ladders work (the ELO system is actually the same that is used in UT3 rankings), the availability tells you wether you'll need to know a pa**word to join it and the rest is pretty obvious.  We'll create a new team for now, seeing that was the point behind this whole guide.. getting people to sign up and play, even though it may seem farfetched to actually *shock* play matches.  After these nosy questions your team is made! Keep in mind that the 'Team email' is actually pretty handy, it will warn the team captains once a challenge has been sent, accepted, etc. You will need to remember the Join Pa**word as this is what your members will need to join (unless you send them an invite after making the team).  If on a later occasion you want to manage something about the team, you can do so from your profile. By holding your mouse over the 'My fraggednation' button it magically opens and you have an option to go to your profile.  Here you can edit several stuff like your avatar. Your clan or team won't be under 'Photo gallery' or 'Blogs', but instead they chose to put it under 'Competition'.  Go for the picture with the group of stickmen (or if you got a challenge, the symbol on the left will let you acces the panel from where you accept/decline challenges)  Here you can do lots of things. All the teams you are in are listed here, in my case you can see my team Victor Street and uNdecided (never decided on a clanname). Under 'Invite Member' you have an option to send invites to people if you know their fraggednation names, that way they won't have to know the pa**word but just have to go to their 'my profile' and accept it from there. If you click for the 'Manage roster' you have an option to promote or demote a captain, who can do several handy things for a team such as inviting other members or manage challenges. Join a ladder and Join a tournament should be obvious enough if you're smart enough to figure out wheels are round, and they allow the same team to be signed up to multiple ladders - that way you won't have to sign up for each ladder individually.  Joining a team Once you're all done creating your team and unlike the current teams on the ladder are actually planning to play matches, 1 way of letting join is to tell a clanmate to follow these same steps mentioned earlier, but instead of creating a team join a team here (Log in > Join a ladder > Select a ladder > Join a team).  Next up is a list of all available teams for that ladder, unless you're a really good guesser for pa**words, I recommend to pick your own team here.  After filling in (or guessing) the pa**word, join the team.  Matches Besides the method earlier mentioned in the 'creating and managing a team', you can just use a quicklink here to find any of the rare challenges faster. The other links there are for the private messaging system there and several other things.  Now for there to be a match, there needs to be a challenger. To challenge a team, go to the UT3 Ps3 section of the site again (iAMgaming forums 'ladder' link), and pick a ladder on which you wish to challenge someone.  Select one of the many teams to challenge (in order to be elligible, you need at least 4 people on your roster).  Pick and date and you're done! Note that you have to send a challenge on the team ladders at least 48 hours before the date you're challenging for, and if you're the one being challenged, be sure to accept it at least 24 hours before - else it will count as a forfeit!  Finally, if you're interested in the rules of the actual ladder you just joined, you can read them by going to the same ladder (UT3 Ps3 on fraggednation > Ladder of choice) and clicking on detail.  |
