THE WIZARD OF OZ TOURNAMENT
Image

This will be a DOUBLES tournament (20 teams)
Each team will play 20 games/no elimination
All games are: Sequential, Chained, Flat Rate
Each game is played on a different map (map selection below)
Winning teams receive one point per game won

NOTE:
One player can reserve a tentative spot for their team but it will NOT be considered final until I have received a request in the tournament thread from BOTH participants. If you would like to play and do not have a partner you can sign up and I will pair you with the next person in the thread who does not have a partner.

NOW for the FUN part of the Tournament!!!
Join us as we take a stroll.......down memory lane. For each round/game that is played we will re-live a scene from the movie, "The Wizard of Oz".

For years this story has given faithful service to the Young in Heart; and Time has been powerless to put it's kindly philosophy out of fashion.

Image Scene 1
Dorothy Sings, "Over The Rainbow"
Dorothy ends up over in a "corner" so to speak, because no one has time for her right now. Auntie Em tells her to go somewhere where she won't get in any trouble......and Dorothy talks to Toto:
Some place where there isn't any trouble.
Do you suppose there is such a place, Toto? There must be.
Not a place you can get to by a boat or a train.
It's a far, far away place - behind the moon - beyond the rain -
Image
(Over The Rainbow)
Somewhere, over the rainbow, way up high. There's a land that I heard of
Once in a lullaby.
Somewhere, over the rainbow, skies are blue. And the dreams that you dare to dream
Really do come true.
Someday I'll wish upon a star and wake up where the clouds are far
Behind me.
Where troubles melt like lemon drops, Away above the chimney tops.
That's where you'll find me.
Somewhere, over the rainbow, bluebirds fly. Birds fly over the rainbow,
Why then - oh, why can't I?
If happy little bluebirds fly beyond the rainbow,
Why, oh, why can't I ?

Image Scene Two:

Miss Gulch Comes To Get Toto
"Here's what I'm taking him in....."
Image
Dorothy is going bananas at the thought of Miss Gulch taking Toto. She's screaming...." Oh no, you mustn't...Auntie Em, you won't let her, will you??" Dorothy gets really mad when Miss Gulch produces an order from the sheriff and calls Miss Gulch a...."wicked old witch..."

Sign me up! I don't have a partner picked out, though.
Also: Will the games have fog-of-war or not? I didn't see that in the specs.

There is no fog-of-war.
I will pair you with drake_259 who needs a partner also.

Welcome jgazaille! I will reserve a spot for you. If no one has requested a partner by the time the tournament is almost filled up you will either have to find one or I will have to open up the two slots for another team. Hopefully that will not be a problem though! :)
