Thread: Upcoming projects and seasonal art, and welcome to our Media and Art team members!

wordmark logo

You’ll have already seen all of our posts on what we want to do in 2022, and how we needed to get people to be able to accomplish these projects. While there are still things we need to figure out for each team, as well as what we will be coming from those teams, we figured we should announce our teams and new staff in those teams!

Seasonal art has always been a strong point for ozfortress, much of which was done by jen. We’re aiming to keep that unique art coming but are making changes this season to try to make our seasonal art more usable for casts, on our social media, and for our news posts.

Another benefit of trying to adapt our seasonal art into a more usable form for other content is making it more usable for our Media Team’s first project. There aren’t many details at the moment, but we’re looking to make a recap video of either each season or each stage of the season (meaning the regular season and playoffs season), which could cover team movement, placement, highlights or other news we would like to feature.

There will definitely be some overlap between the teams for different projects, so we'll make sure to credit everyone where needed.

With the plans out of the way, we would like to officially welcome (and thank) our new and existing Media team and Art team members:

For those who also applied for these teams but did not get in, don’t feel discouraged! Some of the recent applications are yet to be reviewed, and anyone who applied around the time of our first call out, feel free to reapply or DM me on discord (@core#6440) to discuss your application.

Cheers,
core.

Thread: Summer Brawl 2022 - proudly supported by ozfortress
core League Director


When we said we had some plans for 2022, we said so knowing those plans did not include an off-season cup from us before Season 33. Between Season 32 going close to the holidays and trying to fit in two potential larger off-season competitions later in 2022, we didn’t want to rush to get something up and take away from the time we had to prepare for next season, especially with it coming soon. With LAN Downunder 2022 in the middle of January, we figured we would open signups around the same time as LAN so the wait to the next season is short, which is still the plan! Sadly though, with the new COVID variant running wild country-wide, the LAN Downunder 2022 had to be cancelled.

With the cancellation of the LAN Downunder this month, CappingTV has announced their backup event, the Summer Brawl 2022, and unlike past iterations, it’ll be hosted here on ozfortress.com. This is very new for us, markedly so. We’ve never had a tournament or event hosted here without being managed by us. They reached out to us when the outlook for the COVID situation was becoming bleak and LAN was yet again likely to fall victim, wanting to work with us more.

Please be aware, there could be unforeseen issues and potential teething problems with the systems in place, most if not all were made with its use case being to run seasonal leagues. With the Summer Brawl 2022 now being run on the ozfortress website, players will not need to sign up for a new account, and can even use existing team rosters if they wish!

You’ll find more information on signing up, the schedule, maps and the format on their tournament’s page. Please note, for help and support during the event, please see the Capping TV discord’s own #support channel, any support requests in #admin-support in the ozfortress discord that are Summer Brawl related will be redirected.

View the whitelist at whitelist.tf

For the Summer Brawl 2022, we will be making use of the same whitelist ozfortress will be using for Season 33.

It is the responsibility of the player to not use these weapons in matches. The whitelist not loading or loading incorrectly is not an excuse for using banned items.
