The original idea came from
barterer2002 , who has given me permission to continuing running the event.
EMPIRE won both the inaugural event and the 2nd Annual 1v1 Challenge!
The original intent here is to have fun and show depth and breadth of clans so its intended to not have "specialist" dominating the challenges per se with a fun quick bracket tournament.
SIGN UP DEADLINE JULY 14! show: format
A minimum of 8 clans will be used, I will take as many as sign up (depending on the number there may be a play in round).
show: map and settings restrictions
For purposes of this event there will be no freestyle, manual or trench settings.
show: player restrictions
The purpose here is to show the depth of a clan rather than merely that there are 1 or 2 stud 1v1 players in it. With this in mind, each clan must provide at least 12 different participants with each participant taking a maximum of 4 series out of the 40. 41st Game series will NOT count towards a players game series total.
show: map usage
Each clan may use the same map only twice in its home set and may not use Classic more than once (since it will also be used for the 41st game). If a map is repeated within the rules the players must be different in each series. Random can be used and does not count toward map totals.
show: Game Exchange
1v1 games are relatively quick in nature so the schedule will go Week 1 Monday will have Clan 1 (higher seeded clan) create and send all games to Clan 2. Clan 1 must be in their home games by Tuesday. Clan 2 must be in their away games by Thursday. Week 2 will be the Classic neutral game only, Clan 1 creating and joining by Tuesday and Clan 2 joining by Thursday Week 3 will see Clan 2 creating all their home games and sending them to Clan 1 on Monday with all joined by Tuesday and Clan 1 joining all games by Thursday.
show: seeding
Prior to the start, one representative of each of the clans will send in a seeding chart of all other clans (not including their own). If the organizer finds any of the seeding lists unreasonable he will send such list to 3 other clan reps and if 2 out of 3 find it unreasonable that seeding list will be discarded. Depending on the numbers there may be first round byes.
show: Timeframe
Sign Ups June 29th - July 14th
show: Active Schedule -Revised Add On Due to Questions
Once a war completes and the next matches two clans are both decided, there should be two weeks for both sides to plan and then following the monday schedule.
show: reporting
Each clan shall set up a page in the clan forums detailing the clan war and when one or the other wins their 21st set (must be over, not merely not in doubt) send me a PM with the results.
show: Other Info and Penalties
Clans may negotiate settings outside the "general" settings for their specific wars. Penalties:
show: Freemium Policy
I think a good rule to go by is one "series" per freemium, per round. But they need to play enough keeps / keep slots open enough that it doesn't hold up the round.
show: Medals
The winning clan of the event will receive medals
All other issues not listed here will be decided at my discretion, and if a conflict of interest occurs a CD will be consulted.
As this event is fully 1 vs 1, it does
not count towards the F400 standings.
To sign up I'll need your clan name, primary contact and secondary contact. If you'd like to list the players you may but it will not be necessary. fac vitam incredibilem memento vivere
