Masters of Assassin [TPA5] - TPA5 MAJOR
This tournament is open only to premium players.

Image
This is a Tournament Players Association Year 5 [TPA5] event, and is governed by its rules, guidelines, and judgments which are detailed here: viewtopic.php?f=89&t=207126
All are welcome to join and participate in the association. You do not need to do anything more than join one or more of the TPA5 events that will be announced on Mondays. Check back on the scoreboard to see how you're doing:

This tournament design is adapted from the Master of Assassin [TPA] tournament, with permission from original TO, poptartpsycho18; and is not a continuation of her tournament series.

In the original Risk boardgame, a quicker variation of the game with added 'Mission Cards' was available, where the game was over if a player's assigned mission was fulfilled. Among these, a common mission was to completely eliminate a player's troops from the board. Thus, the Assassin game type was born, becoming one of the many gameplay options that Risk players have come to know and love.

With the ever increasing number of maps that the CC Community has produced, it certainly takes lots of skill to master each of them and still be able to call yourself a 'Master of Assassin' games.

This tournament will pit players against others on each of their favourite Assassin maps, and see who is truly the Master of Assassin!

Tournament Setup
show
Rules
  • Each round, you will play five 5-player games.
  • One game will be played on your home map, and the rest on away maps.
  • Players must win at least 1 game to advance.
  • At the end of each round, players with no wins and no immunities (details in next section) will be eliminated from the tournament.
  • This will carry on until we have the final 4 to 6 players.
(Note: In the event that less than 4 players advance in any round, tiebreaker rules will be applied to advance the 4th-placed player.)

Finals
  • The finalists will play 3 sets of games, each with X number of X-player games (where X is the number of finalists), for a total of 3X games.
  • Maps used in the finals will consist of one set on each of the finalists' home maps, and 2 sets of maps randomly chosen from the pool of maps used in the tournament.
  • The player that wins the most games in the finals will be declared the winner.
Non-Conventional Wins / Wrong Eliminations
  • Games that end by fulfilling a map objective will count as a win.
  • Games that end by reaching the round limit will not count as a win.
  • Players that eliminate the wrong target will have the game counted as a negative win (i.e. the player has to win 2 other games to advance for that round). Repeat offenders will be eliminated from the tournament.

Home Ground Immunity
show
Here's the twist: winning on your home map grants you immunity from elimination for any subsequent round in the tournament.

However, immunities cannot be stacked - i.e. if you win on your home map while you already have immunity, you will NOT have 2 immunities.

Regardless, this means that your selection of home map is especially important, as it can help keep you around in the tournament for another round!

Settings
show
You may choose any non-Beta map (including Random) as your home map, and all games will be 5-player games, with possible 4- or 6-player games in the finals.

All other game settings will be Assassin, Automatic, Sequential, Escalating, Chained, Sunny, No Trench, 20 Rounds.

Tiebreaker
show
In case of a tie, the following tiebreaker rules will be applied, in order of priority:
  1. Number of games won throughout the tournament. (more wins tie)
  2. Number of immunities used throughout the tournament. (less wins tie)
  3. Number of home games won throughout the tournament. (more wins tie)
  4. If still tied, tiebreaker game.

TPA Ranking
show
Players will be ranked according to the round they got eliminated. The above tiebreaker rules (except the tiebreaker game) will also be applied among players eliminated in the same round, for greater differentiation between ranks.

Finalists will be ranked according to finals results, then tiebreaker rules if necessary.

Signups
show
The tournament can take any number of players, and will begin either after 4 weeks on 2 April 2015, or when signups slow down.

When signing up, please include your chosen (non-Beta) home map!
Players that do not indicate their home map will be assigned Random.
You will not be able to change your home map once the tournament starts, so be sure of your choice!


Notes
1. I reserve the right to change aspects of the game if anything needs changing, to ensure fairness to all players or for the benefit of the tournament. Changes, if any, will be announced in this thread.
2. If you wish to withdraw from the tournament at any time, please inform me via personal message or post on this thread.
3. If you do not join the game within 48 hours, you will be removed.
4. If you are know you are not going to be around for a duration of time, please inform me. If the period of time is short enough, I will delay all of your games.
5. For any questions, problems etc. you may voice it out in this thread or you can PM me.

You can only choose your home map, not the rest of the settings! You're free to change your map choice in lieu of this, but I'll take it as Arms Race! for now (:

All added till here! Signups are really slow... guess Assassin just isn't a popular game type?
