Welcome to lucabucci's Race Around The World!
As multiple games will be played at once this tournament is open to premium members only.
This tournament will be loosely based on the Clipper Round the World yacht race.
At the start of each leg of the race the 36 participants will be randomly split into 6 groups of 6. For each game you win your yacht will catch the ocean breezes needed to reach the finish line first! Bonuses are also up for grabs: the quicker each game is won the stronger the wind will blow and the further your yacht will go!
