An introduction
show
CC Olympics are meant for tribes, not for individuals. So browsing through the program is NIGHTMARE to choosy players. So much uninteresting crap! (What's crap to you is interesting to many others and vice versa. If there wasn't an important fact that you're right while they're wrong, the whole issue wouldn't be worth discussing. It would be considered as normal diversity... ) I am significantly less than enthusiastic about playing dull, plain maps. I never play Speed. I NEVER EVER play Freestyle. I even tend to avoid multiplayer games,if I expect other players' stupidity to be unbearable. After this introduction, the content of next paragraph isn't very surprising... Last year, I've found ONE tourney that I had a genuine wish to play and few more I MIGHT play in some good moment. There weren't any good moments and I played nothing. When, after forgetting the name of my desired tourney, I finally took the effort to find it again - it was already closed. This year, I'm more in a mood to play. Decided to keep maximal awareness. Started to browse. After only 10 or 15 minutes, got exhausted. My God, it's a big and tedious job! But I have to do it, if I want to follow what's going on. Since swallowing a middle size frog is about as unpleasant as swallowing a big one, I decided to do the job properly and help, besides myself, to many others. So here we are...
I visited every single tournament page and extracted useful data. This way, by simply reading the list, you can have a pretty good picture which tournament is for you and which one isn't. You don't have to visit every tournament, just to see what it is. You can visit only the tourneys you're interested in. (
Mad will be mad! He's a seller and wants you to visit EVERY tournament page. And then press the JOIN button for any reason, or without any reason ...
)
Than I split the list into three divisions: Speed, Freestyle and Normal. This way, instead on one big, messy list - you have three reasonably neat ones, of much more comfortable size. And if you want to favour or exclude certain type(s) of games, you can do it easily.

NOTES:
- You see the spoiler "Polies". It's just a bunch of duplicates, collected for convenience of lovers and haters who make a big deal whether a game is Standard or Poly. Each tournament you find here, you'll also find in the appropriate section.
- There aren't any links. They do change. You can always find correct ones in
Mad's thread . Though I'd like to take over Mad's enormous salary
, I'm not going to take the work away from him. Visit Mad's thread! Do it frequently!
(My favorite saying is:
Do as I SAY, not as I do! )
- An advice about iterations (how to protect yourself from missing the tourney because you haven't joined on time) is missing. I made a useful observation last year, but forgot it. If I recall, or if someone posts a good advice - I'll update this post.
- If you see a relevant error in data, do not hesitate to report it here. Don't know how often I'll look this thread, but if you wish to see the error corrected soon - feel free to attack my wall
