Random - Survivor Series *Winner: Shoop76*

This is a survivor series tournament. Not a knockout.

Only for the bravest - 3 games each round on a random map.

2 Player. Premium Members Only.

Each Round up to the Quarter, Sem-Final and Final will be 3x2 player games. Quarter and Semi will be 5x2 player games and final will be best of 7.

To survive, you simply need to win one of your 3 games.

Scoring will be 3 points for winning all 3 games, 1 point for winning 2 games, 0 points for surviving and winning 1 game. If you lose all 3 you are out of the tournament regardless of how many points you have amassed.

The player with the highest cumulative points will get a bye in the next round. If points are equal it goes to the most points gained in the current round, then previous round then the one before that. If it is still a draw it goes down to who finished all 3 games first. To be clear, this is by time the games finish. So it's in your interest to play as quickly as possible.

If an odd number of players are left after that then the next highest scoring player will also get a bye.

Play continues until there are only 8 players left then it is a straight knockout in the Quarter, Semi and final. 5 games in the Quarters and Semi, and 7 in the final. If we go from 9 to 7,6,or 5 players remaining then the ioghest scoring player gets a bye like in previous rounds.

Settings:

Random
2 player
Standard
Automatic
Adjacent/Chained (Random each round)
Flat Rate/Escalating (Random each Round)
Foggy


NOTE:

THE 12 HOUR RULE WILL APPLY. IF YOU JOIN THE GAME 2ND AND HAVE FIRST TURN THEN YOU MUST WAIT FOR 12 HOURS BEFORE TAKING YOUR SHOT SO THAT THE PLAYER GOING 2ND CAN SEE THE BOARD. YOU CAN ONLY TAKE YOUR TURN IN THE 1ST 12 HOURS IF THE OTHER PLAYER ADVISES HE HAS SAW THE BOARD IN THE GAME CHAT.

IF YOU TAKE YOUR TURN IN THE FIRST 12 HOURS WITHOUT THIS HAPPENING AND THE OTHER PLAYER COMPLAINS TO ME THEN YOU AUTOMATICALLY LOSE THAT GAME, GIVING YOUR OPPONENT A MAJOR ADVANTAGE.

TO BE CLEAR, JOINING THE GAME 2ND MEANS ACCPETING THE INVITATION AFTER THE FIRST PLAYER HAS ALREADY ACCEPTED. I WOULD SUGGEST PLAYERS JOINING THE GAME AFTER THE FIRST PLAYER HAS ALREADY ACCEPTED THE INVITATION SHOULD TAKE A SNAP SHOT BEFORE WAITING THE 12 HOURS.


So, who can survive to win???

THE FINAL...........................

That was 2 thrilling Semi-Finals to set up a hum-dinger of a final. Hum-Dinger means very good if you are interested. The highlights:

- In a thrilling Semi-Final it is Shoop76 who progresses into the final versus the 38th Seed CaronylKluster. Best of Luck Caronyl!

- Craig25's quest to win one of his own tournaments without cheating, continues. 1st Seed TX AG 90 makes sure of that. TX wins the 1st 3 games in this Semi to set up a final with the 10th Seed Shoop76.



The Final Preview:


We started at 83 players. It has taken 729 games to get to the stage where only 2 heroes of the board remain standing. Our Final is:


Shoop76 v TX AG 90

10th v 1st Seed

20 v 25 Points


Results and play style have been analysed to see who is the pre-final favourite to win the 'Best Of 7' Final.

With the Tournament scoring, TX AG 90 looks to be the slight favourite. But, in 2 player games (not inv poly), this pair have played each other a massive 50 times so they know each other's strengths and weaknesses.

Of the 50 completed games, TX has won 26 and 'The Shoopster' 24.

So we do have a favourite but the truth is, these 2 are virtually unseperable!


ODDS:

TX AG 90: 10/11

Shoop76: Evs


Good Luck Troops, and FFS REMEMBER THE FOG RULE!

***WINNER***

WOW, there has never been such a one sided final in the Survivor Series History.

It took no less than 736 games and 18 Rounds of Survivor Series Risk to get us down to 2 players.

It was either TX AG 90 or Shoop76 who would achieve RISK Super Stardom and win one of these Tournaments. But there could be only 1 winner......

Ladies and Gentlemen I give you our RANDOM MAP CHAMP, The Dutch Destroyer, Dances Like a Butterfly Stings Like a Bee, the Death Dealer, 'The Shoopster'.....


SHOOP76

He started off as only the 10th HIGHEST RANKED PLAYER!

Lets look at how he achieved this amazing victory...................................

Round 1 - Started off with a LOSS! - RYP (52nd Seed) Beats 10th Seed Shoop 2-1, Both Survive.

Round 2 - ANOTHER LOSS! - Lord Arioch 62nd Seed beats Shoop76. He was 915 Points lower ranked so winning 2-1 was an AMAZING result for 'The Lord'.

Round 3 - Shoop76 (10th Seed) gets off the mark in Rd 3 with a 2-1 win over 24th Seed Dragon Dor.

Round 4 - In an early preview of what turned out to be THE FINAL, Shoop76 spanked TX 2-1!

Round 5 - 10th Seed Shoop76 gets his 1st KO of the Tournament in Round 5. And it was cruel, he was on 2 points and faced 31st Seed WeaselShane who was on a massive 6 points. Means nothing now though. Shoop Spanks the Weasel 3-0.

Round 6 - 10th Seed Shoop76 shoots and scores. He picks up his 2nd KO of the Tournament, 46th Seed Larry46 the victim.

Round 7 - Wow, the lowest Ranked player still standing, not only survives but picks up a point as well! 75th Seed ToonArmy09 BEATS 10th Seed Shoop76 2-1. Shoop was a huge 1224 Points HIGHER Ranked! WOW!

Round 8 - ANOTHER LOSS versus the Avi8or!

Round 9 - He Scudded WheelWright 2-1 in this one!

Round 10 - Another point with a 2-1 WIN over SimplyRed60

Round 11 - ANOTHER 2-1 LOSS versus the Avi8or!

Round 12 - Some revenge, a 2-1 WIN over the Avi8or!

Round 13 - He was pumped 2-1 again by CaronylKluster.......How did 'The Shoopster' win this???

Round 14 - WTAF!: Just the 58 Seeding places between 68th Seed Mageplunka69 and Shoop76. And this one doesn't go the way of the form book, Mag comes out the 2-1 winner, but Shoop survives to fight another day.

Round 15 - HITS FORM AT THE RIGHT TIME: We very well could be heading for a Quarter Final Here….And Shoop76 our 10th Seed is looking very strong. He takes out the 16th Seed Wheelwright to move onto 14 Points.Wheelwright was ALREADY on 15 Points, but goes from 15 to ZERO points in 3 games. Unlucky Wheel!

Quarter Final - Of all the players in these competitions, you don't want to meet Shoop76. This guy just refuses to lose! In a very tight Quarter Final 10th Seed played 12th Seed, and the 10th Seed came out on top. Shoop76 3 v 2 Keefie. Unlucky Keefie, you got one tough draw in the Quarters!

SEMI-FINAL - In a thrilling Semi-Final it is Shoop76 who progresses into the final versus the 38th Seed CaronylKluster. Best of Luck Caronyl!

FINAL - Ladies and Gentlemen I give you our RANDOM MAP CHAMP, The Dutch Destroyer, Dances Like a Butterfly Stings Like a Bee, the Death Dealer, 'The Shoopster'.....


SHOOP76




My personal congratulations goes to 'The Shoopster', if anyone deserved to win one of these Tournaments it was him. An AMAZING ACHIEVEMENT! However, no words of mine can compare to his fellow competitors thoughts on his victory.

PLEASE SEND YOUR CONGRATULATIONS DIRECTLY TO SHOOP76 Troops. It really was an amzing achievement!

Okay Troops, Keep Scudding and get yourself signed up for the RISK SUPER LEAGUE if you ain't already done so:





Shoop - I've CC'd Dukasaur for your TournamentWinners medal!
