Edition 2:
viewtopic.php?t=172494 (winner link0983) 4/16 Broke the Ice!
As this is the third edition, and three is my favorite number I'm making a small adjustment from 1vs1 games to my favorite poly which is similar to team game style which is my favorite style of play.
All 16 entrants will play vs me on my favorite 10 maps. (one at a time) In keeping with tradition, I've kept the 10th Round Random
The goal of the tournament is simple - break thru the Ice! Breaking the ICE requires greater than 50% win record (6 out of 10 wins). The player w/ the most wins after 10 maps wins the tournament....
Provided they won MORE THAN 50% of our games!
If no one won more than 50%, then I win. (meaning all 16 entrants fail to win 6 out of 10)
If more than two or more players wins greater than 50%, and are tied for the top score then a playoff round with those players will begin. Each will pick 5 of the 10 maps to replay vs me.
Those wins are added to their initial scores. If there is STILL a tie, I will choose 3 maps of the 10 (at random). They will play each other, best of 3 wins.
Premium is required due to poly maps. One invite per game, missing invites In the tournament will result in ONE warning per player, and then count as forfeits. 12 hour fog rule applies.
Settings depend on the map as listed:
1. Antarctica Poly 4 ESC C F2. Siege! Poly 3 FR Adj S3. 8 Thoughts Poly 2 NS C F4. Arms Race Poly 2 NS C F5. Poison Rome Poly 3 NS P F6. WWII Poland Poly 4 ESC C F7. Austerlitz Poly 2 NS C F8. Labryinth Poly 4 ESC P F9. AOM Poly 3 FR C F10. Random** - Poly 3 ESC C S*I reserve the right to decline entrance due to foe list, previous tournament problems, or very low % turns taken.
**If there is ever ANY need to remake the game due to MY fault, or for ANY other reason and the previous invite has already gone out and is accepted. Whatever remake that is necessary will go out as the map that was selected by Random,
not a NEW random invite.
