Gods, Devils, and Everything in Between [Winner=Pyrhhus]
Posted: Sun Jun 19, 2011 3:29 pmWelcome to what will be my 9th tournament! I've been working on this idea for a good while and I think I know how to make it work. But first, some general things:
Throughout this tournament, each player shall hold one of 5 ranks. They can be a Devil, Demon, Human, Angel, or God. Each player will start as a Human. When a battle is won, a player's rank improves, and when a battle is lost, a player's rank decreases. For example, if both Player A and Player B are humans, and A beats B, then Player A would become an Angel, while Player B would become a Demon. One gets eliminated by losing a battle as a Devil, however there a few other ways that you can get eliminated.
Before each round, using Random.org, I shall use the list randomizer to randomly assign who will fight who. There are 15 possibilites for matchups:
Rounds will continue until there is only one player left, who shall be the champion of the tournament.
***If at any point there are 3 exactly 3 players remaining in the tournament, they shall play a 3-person game. If 2 or more of them are the same rank, they shall play on the map they would've with just two; For example, if there were 2 angels and a Devil left, they would play on Route 66, Flat Rate. If all 3 players have different ranks, they shall play on Doodle Earth, Escalating. Regardless of rank, winner of the game would advance 2 ranks up (devil to human, demon to angel, human to god, angel to god, or god to god). While the losers would decrease one rank (god to angel, angel to human, human to demon, demon to devil, or devil to eliminated)
***When there is an odd number of players remaining (besides 3), one player (randomly chosen) will have a bye that round.
***In the rare case that this tournament manages to take way too long, the Doomsday Rule shall come into effect on April 1st, 2012.
