Iron Man IV [Winner: Hath]

[Forza AZ]

It has been quite some time since the last edition of the Iron Man tournament. so I decided to hold a new version.

This is how this tournament works:

-24 players
-round 1: 3 groups of 8 players --> top 2 of each group to final group
-1 game on each map that is online (Standard, Sequential, Escalating, Chained)
-1 point for each won game
-in case of a tie, the number of points of the previous round decides the winner, if that gives no conclusion there will be a play-off game on 1 of the maps that none of the involved players have won so far

Because it's not possible to have 8 player games on Age Of Realms 1, 2 & 3 & Feudal War, there will be 4 6-player games on these maps in round 1, with 2 players from each of the 3 groups in an "inter-group" game.

You have to be Premium, since I will set-up the games in sets of 10 at a time. As soon as 1 game has finished in all 3 groups in a set I will set-up the next set of 10 games, etc.

i am in (how many games at a time)

[Lufsen75]

10 games at the time. Im in.

[Gilligan]

8 player games on every map?

Yes, except the 3 maps mentioned on which you can't play with 8 players.

Sorry to pester you, but are newly quenched maps added to this as well? IE the ones in Final Forge that get quenched after this starts.

[Optimus Prime]

10 games at the time. Im in.

Actually, it could be quite more than that. After each group finishes 1 game you will get 10 new ones, so you could easily pile up 30+ at a time.

Yes, all maps that are quenched before the last set of games start will be included.

Well, 30+ is unlikely. I will set-up 10 at the beginning, then when the first of that set is finished in all 3 groups, the next 10 (so you have maximum 19 then). When the first of set 2 is finished in all groups I will set-up the 3rd set (by that time it's likely that most 1st set games will also be finished), so think you won't have much more then 20 games active from this tournament at 1 time.

[Gilligan]
