Esports Arena Rewind LAN 2017, commonly referred to as Rewind, was the first Esports Arena Team Fortress 2 tournament. It was a 6v6 LAN event, held at the Esports Arena in Santa Ana, California, United States from 21 January 2017 to 22 January 2017.

Rewind is extremely notable for being the first intercontinental LAN event outside of the Insomnia Gaming Festival, and the first intercontinental LAN in North America. It was held very close to the median date between Insomnia58 and the projected date for Insomnia61, creating a bi-annual period for global 6v6 Team Fortress tournaments. Two non-North American teams attended the event, Se7en from Europe and Jasmine Tea from Australia.

Rewind was split into two divisions, Invite and Open. Prominent community figures b4nny and samiface were heavily involved in the organisation of the event.

Se7en, having won the latest intercontinental event Insomnia58 (as Crowns eSports Club) were eliminated by froyotech following a five map Grand Final. Jasmine Tea finished fourth, unable to break the infamous "curse" of Australian teams finishing fourth at global events.

• Navboxes
  • ESEA-I/IM Seasons
    • North American championships for NA?
  • World Championships
  • Auto display with series semantic info
• delete files

• IM/O/Div 1 are just results pages. "Ruleset is identical to invite division"

to do

• infobox semantics and categories
• make sure semantics will work between Team Card and other templates and infobox semantics
• optimise!
• documentations!
• outlets (links to other pages)!

Results

• Detailed results are hidden by default (?) (if so, open all button a la Show Players)
• |config= for automatic table sorting and processing
• Notes if tiebreakers are in effect
• Manchester City (Q)
• single piece templates and one all encompasing combiner template
  • single piece templates are needed for weird tourneys
• clicking on a match in cross table takes you to match in detailed results and opens details
• no header on details template for detailed group results
• in crosstable, show tag instead of icon if icon is TF icon??
  • Don't show icon in certain places if TF icon, e.g. in detailed results
• strikethrough for if a team drops?
• half cross table, should be able to auto detect(???)
• no red links
• auto timezone
• lc:
• deafult config not working
• change round robin round tables colours: set header to caption (should do anyway?) and set f2f2f2 to each row, f9f9f9 to each details
• either have details sandwiched between each match a la esea or do it the more normal unstupid way
• Better solution that <small> html tags
• User asterisk for Golden cap
• Set maps to link as external links to the logs pLEASE do this it simplifies everything so much. At the cost of less linkage to map pages. Could supplement this with MapCards instead of table in Ruleset sexion

Brackets

• Sort out proper in code formatting like spaces and border conflicts and stuff. Comments too
• Remove |height=7| thingies and use css instead???

Cleanup wave 1

• tier namings, links, pages
• proper links + icons
  • vods, twitch stream (so broadcaster isn't a twitch link) (?)
• x20px
• make icon bigger to centre properly
• Categories, semantics
• Template:whitelist.tf websafe fonts
• Change 6sTeamCard back to Generic Logo.png
• Cleanup Template:6sTeamCard
• tier namings (specifically continental championship): Could auto do "North American Championship" etc. Country inclusion in "Location:"

Integration wave

• automated team/ templates
• better things to link to in infobox than categories
• arrow icons
• when team icons have no padidng: results section will break

comp.tf Player Pages Standard, update 1.0

Cleanup wave 2:

• i58 --> Insomnia58
• Achievements --> Global Achievements (?)
• Remove [see all]
• Simplify Career Winnings, 'Winnings', US$ ?
• Convert birth dates to Template:Birth date and Template:Birth date and age
• other_main1 --> other_main
• #ifexist
  • Team
• Vertical align on rows on helper templates
• format --> game mode
• _ --> nothing
• simplify parameter names
• simplify common.css
• line height 1.6em
• x18px --> x20px
• |size= for Template:LeagueIconSmall
• helper templates: team history can just be rows; need proper padding for achievements
• formatting for birth date
• remove tabs on results pages, replace with one liners
• Continental navbox instead of national
  • template:continent
    • add to both infoboxes
  • saudi arabia = europe etc

Information wave:

• Intros
  • Opening statement
  • playstyle
  • notable achievements
  • legacy
  • historic moments/records
• Biography
• Career
• External media + gallery
• Trivia

Integration wave:

• can automate team navbox

  • tiers: world (world championships), continental/seasonal, ...
  • centralised width 100%, sacrifice colspan for automation, show all Invite/Global LANS and option to show/go to other page for literally all of them
