Struggles in the Snow
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Okay, I've started the Finals as a new tourney on Challonge.com. When I made the original, Challonge had not yet introduced two-stage tourneys. Rather than have to screw around with editting the old one and possibly losing all the data, I just made a new one.
To avoid confusion, I have given the teams the numbers they had on the original.
The teams, and their chosen maps and settings for the Finals:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(balance of OP)
A TPA 4 Premier tournament for 20 teams of 3
In this tournament you will recreate some of the most brutal struggles in the snow that men have ever lived through. 20 premium-only teams will participate in a full round-robin. Each set in the round robin will consist of 3 games: one of each team's home map from the list of Optional maps, and a third on the mandatory map, featuring the most terrible struggle in the snow that ever happened: the Battle of Stalingrad. After the round robin, four or more teams will advance to a final round.
How to sign up: (please pay close attention!)
Scoring: you will score three points for winning on your home map, four points for winning the mandatory game, and five points for winning on your opponents' home map.

After the round robin, four or more teams will advance to a final round.
How to sign up: (please pay close attention!)
- Sign up with a complete team of 3 premium members. I will not play matchmaker or accept singles.
- Choose one map from the list of Optional maps. In order to produce reasonable variety, each of the Optional maps may be chosen only three times. Please look over what Optional maps teams before you have signed up for to avoid the hassle of being asked to change your home map.
- All games will be Sequential, Automatic deployment, 24-hour turns, no Trench, and a 50-round limit. When you choose your optional map, you may choose Fog or No Fog, and any Spoils and Reinforcement options. The default if you don't choose will be No Spoils, Chained and Foggy.
- The Stalingrad map will be played on the default settings unless both teams in a match agree to different settings, in which case I will grant their choice. One match will start at a time, a few days apart and the list of who you are playing will always be posted in advance, so there will be time to engage in these kinds of discussions if you wish.
Scoring: you will score three points for winning on your home map, four points for winning the mandatory game, and five points for winning on your opponents' home map.
