WORLD CUP 1.0 [Winner: esiemer]

Postby elGrande on Fri Apr 02, 2010 10:16 pm

CONGRATULATIONS!

esiemer is the first World Cup 1.0 Champion!

Almost exactly a month after it started, we have crowned a champion! esiemer battled through 3 stages of 4 maps each to squeak out the win by winning the final map. A second place finish in the map would not have done it! He needed to win the map and did so!

FINAL STANDINGS:

13 PTS - esiemer
13 PTS - baco
11 PTS - El Grande
08 PTS - Action

esiemer wins the tie breaker by having 2 maps won in the final 4 maps!

CHECK OUT THE FINAL STATISTICS AT THE WEBSITE HERE!




CURRENT RESULTS! **UPDATED: May 10th**
All but 1 of the maps have been completed, but the playoffs are ready to start! Map invites have been given out and players are now able to join!

CONGRATS to the following players who advanced from the first round:
Jeffos - 1st Place Group A with 14 points (2 wins)
Action - 2nd Place Group A with 13 points (1 win, 2 2nds)
El Grande - 1st Place Group B with 16 points (2 wins, 2 2nds)
esiemer - 2nd Place Group B with 12 points (1 win, 2 2nds)
phillipm - 1st Place Group C with 15 points (2 wins, 1 2nd)
OutSider - 2nd Place Group C with 10 points (1 win, 1 2nds) ---- Won Tiebreaker to advance from 'Group of Death' !!
Ron Burgandy - 1st Place Group D with 16 points (2 wins, 2 2nds) ---- Won Tiebreaker to advance as 1st place finisher
baco - 2nd Place Group D with 16 points (2 wins, 2 2nds)

Thank you to all of the players who did not advance from the 1st Round! Well played maps and good sportsmanship!



Check the website for updated Standings!! http://www.ufreeze.net/ccworldcup1.htm

Here are the finished map results:

GROUP A - Netherlands: Jeffos, Action, jrh_cardinal, Riskfan1
GROUP A - Montreal: jrh_cardinal, Action, Jeffos, Riskfan1

GROUP B - Netherlands: El Grande, esiemer, northridge, dfpdep

GROUP C - Netherlands: PhillipM, OutSider, jobiwan, Skywalker

GROUP D - Netherlands: Baco, Ron Burgandy, Shoop76, acores2005

Group A has finished 2 maps with a battle brewing! After finishing 3rd in Netherlands, jrh_cardinal won Montreal and put himself right back into the mix. Unfortunately for him, he was knocked out first in the Classic Map. He currently has 8 points and leads his group, but has finished 1 more map then everyone else. He will need a 2nd place finish or better in the final map to have a chance at advancing!
Group D saw a reversal of ranks.. with the 2 guys with under 1100 rankings both finishing better then the 2 guys with better then 1300 (Shoop76 with 2500+)

Stay Tuned for more updates and we push towards the playoffs!

TOURNAMENT WEBSITE -- Groups have been completed! Player Stats updated!

UPDATED: Groups have been drawn! Please see website for explanation of how groups were completed.

GROUP A
jrh_cardinal - jeffos - Riskfan1 - Action

GROUP B
dfp2dep - esiemer - El Grande - northridge

GROUP C
outSider - Jobiwan - skywalker22 - phillipm

GROUP D
shoop76 - acores2005 - baco - Ron Burgandy

MATCH PLAY WILL BEGIN ONCE THIS EVENT HAS BEEN APPROVED!


Tournament Setup:

16 Players maximum
ANY RATING ALLOWED! - ** Updated **
3 Stages of play! - Group Stage, Playoffs, Championship

UPDATED Information: Points System explained (with example)

GROUP STAGE: 4 players per group (4 groups of 4) | Each group plays 4 maps simultaneously. Each map is worth points based on how you finish the map.
example:
Classic Map - Player A is the first to be eliminated and receives 1 point. Player C is second to be eliminated and receives 2 points. Player B is 3rd to be eliminated and receives 3 points. The winner, Player D receives 5 points (1 point bonus for the win)
Montreal Map - Player C wins = 5 pts | Player D = 3 points | Player A = 2 pts | Player B = 1 pts
Netherlands Map - Player A wins = 5 pts | Player D = 3 pts | Player C = 2 pts | Player B = 1 pts
Puget Sound Map - Player C wins = 5 pts | Player B = 3 pts | Player D = 2 pts | Player A = 1 pts

Based on the points from each map, the Group would finish as follows:

Player A = 9 points
Player B = 8 points
Player C = 14 points
Player D = 13 points

Player C wins the Group and Player D finishes 2nd place and both advance to the Playoff Stage!

The Playoff Stage and Championship Stage both use the same points system to determine the overall group winner!




SIGN UPS CLOSED Play will begin once I get this thing approved!!!

1. I thought there was a 1400 or less requirement (he's a captain, therefore over 1800)

3 Stages of play! - Group Stage, Playoffs, Championship
4 maps per stage!
Points system to determine advancing players
Absolutely NO prizes given... unless you count Conquer Club Pride as a prize?

2. CC pride is absolutely a prize, plus they get a trophy automatically :) (so do you for running th tourney)
3. if you are going to play, which it seems that you are, (or even if you aren't going to play) you're going to want to explain this "points system", if people don't understand it, I guarantee there will be problems

not wanting to play, just trying to help a new TO get started :)
if you want official help, PM amazzony about the TO groups mentor program (I believe that is what it's called, but I'm sure she'll know what you're talking about even if I'm wrong)

ty sir.. did not check all of the player ratings yet.. I will need to do that soon I guess!

Yes.. I will need to explain the Points.. I know the first rule when running a tournament is to make sure that your format and rules are 'idiot proof'... you are absolutely right.. I am sure someone will have questions.

Thank you very much.

The points work as the following:

In each group.. there are 4 players.. those 4 players will play in 4 maps (at same time) against each other.

The winner of each map will get 5 points, 2nd will get 3 pts, 3rd will get 2 pts, 4th will get 1 point.

Once all 4 maps for that group has been completed, the total points scored by each player will determine which 2 players will advance to the playoff stage.

The same formula will be used to determine the next winners to advance to the finals.


Does that clear any of that up?

Outsider - Sorry bro.. I wanted to keep my first event a bit amateur to help with the stress level. Immediately following this one or even once it starts, I will set up another one for anyone above a 1400 rating.

My apologies.

Thank you guys!

New Player Statistics for the Group Stage!

Players can use these stats to compare their map success versus their opponents!

At this point the top 4 seeds are:

OutSider
dfp2dep
esiemer
jeffos

These players will randomly be drawn for one group each.
The remaining players will then be randomly drawn to fill each group!

Check out the player stats here..

ok, I find myself constantly checking this thread to see how you're doing, might as well join since you lifted the point restriction, so I'm in

PS you did a good job explaining the points system, etc., but most people don't read past the first post (if they even read that) so I suggest making all updates like that in the first post, then just say "updated" or something like that on th real thread

You guys are both in!

Thank you for the suggestions.

I will post final updates tonight and we will set a start date. I will need to check with a few of the players to make sure they have the open games. I will also need to ask to get the games set up.

Thank you all.

POINTS SYSTEM EXPLAINED:

GROUP STAGE: 4 players per group (4 groups of 4) | Each group plays 4 maps simultaneously. Each map is worth points based on how you finish the map.
example:
Classic Map - Player A is the first to be eliminated and receives 1 point. Player C is second to be eliminated and receives 2 points. Player B is 3rd to be eliminated and receives 3 points. The winner, Player D receives 5 points (1 point bonus for the win)
Montreal Map - Player C wins = 5 pts | Player D = 3 points | Player A = 2 pts | Player B = 1 pts
Netherlands Map - Player A wins = 5 pts | Player D = 3 pts | Player C = 2 pts | Player B = 1 pts
Puget Sound Map - Player C wins = 5 pts | Player B = 3 pts | Player D = 2 pts | Player A = 1 pts

Based on the points from each map, the Group would finish as follows:

Player A = 9 points
Player B = 8 points
Player C = 14 points
Player D = 13 points

Player C wins the Group and Player D finishes 2nd place and both advance to the Playoff Stage!

The Playoff Stage and Championship Stage both use the same points system to determine the overall group winner!

I wanted to get in but my rating was too high

I will reserve now that you are filled and have changed the rules
