This is now the WORLD SERIES BOUNTY BUILDER - SURVIVOR SERIES. BRING IT ON!!!!
THE CONCEPT The Bounty on your head at the start of the Tournament is the Rank you start the Tournament with. So, I have a crown at the moment, so if the Tournament started immeditely, my Bounty would be 2646. A Cook as an example would have a Bounty of circa 700 points.
Each Round Consists of 2 games. Games are 2 player games.
There are 3 possible outcomes for you each Round.
- Win Zero Games - You don't survive and are eliminated.
- Win 1 Game - Both players Survive and progress with their Bounty unchanged.
- Win 2 Games - You win your opponents Bounty, which, is added to your Bounty for the next Round.
Your score in the tournament is your Bounty increase. In the example above, if I beat the Cook on 700 points 2-0. I win his Bounty, so in the next Round my Bounty is 2646 + 700 = 3346. My Tournament Score would be 700. Note, your Bounty can only go up as the Tournament progresses. If someone then knocks me out in the next Round, my new Bounty of 3346 gets added to their Bounty.
If an odd number of players in a round remain. The player who was KO'd 1st from the previous Rd will be re-instated back into the Tournment on 1000 points, or their rank, whichever is lower.
Each Round will be a totally Random Draw for each Match Up.

Craig25 has a Green Box on the Scoreboard.FOG RULES APPLY TO ALL GAMES YOU WILL LOSE ANY GAMES WHERE YOU BREAK THE FOG RULES. READ THEM, UNDERSTAND THEM AND IF YOU DON'T ASK ME. PLAYERS ON THE SCOREBOARD WITH A YELLOW BOX HAVE A YELLOW CARD AS THRY HAVE BROKEN FOG RULES IN ANOTHER TOURNAMENT, AND USUSALLY ENDED THEIR TOURNAMENT BECAUSE OF IT. AND NOBODY WANTS TO KNOW WHAT A RED CARD IS! YOU ONLY HAVE 2 GAMES PER ROUND, IF YOU AUTOMATICALLY LOSE 1 YOUR CHANCES AREN'T GOOD. BREAK IT IN 2 GAMES AND YOU ARE AUTO ELIMINATED. FOG RULES: IF YOU JOIN THE GAME 2ND AND HAVE FIRST TURN THEN YOU MUST WAIT FOR 12 HOURS BEFORE TAKING YOUR SHOT SO THAT THE PLAYER GOING 2ND CAN SEE THE BOARD. YOU CAN ONLY TAKE YOUR TURN IN THE 1ST 12 HOURS IF THE OTHER PLAYER ADVISES HE HAS SAW THE BOARD IN THE GAME CHAT, OR WALL OR E-MAIL. IF YOU TAKE YOUR TURN IN THE FIRST 12 HOURS WITHOUT THIS HAPPENING AND THE OTHER PLAYER COMPLAINS TO ME THEN YOU AUTOMATICALLY LOSE THAT GAME, GIVING YOUR OPPONENT A MAJOR ADVANTAGE. TO BE CLEAR, JOINING THE GAME 2ND MEANS ACCPETING THE INVITATION AFTER THE FIRST PLAYER HAS ALREADY ACCEPTED. I WOULD SUGGEST PLAYERS JOINING THE GAME AFTER THE FIRST PLAYER HAS ALREADY ACCEPTED THE INVITATION SHOULD TAKE A SNAP SHOT BEFORE WAITING THE 12 HOURS.Round 1 - Preview In Round 1 60 Match Ups Take Place.

NOW GUYS, FFS DO NOT BREAK THE FOG RULE! GOOD LUCK! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Round 1 Update: This Tournament is way too good not to send an immediate update. The highlights of Round 1 so far..................... - Killerz999 gets a 1649 Bounty in Rd 1. He dispatches NM048609D. NM gutted and leaves the table early doors. - SilverTop Scuds a Player 2-0 with a very unusual Username. In the after match interview, 11mi15 was asked how he chose his username, his reply "I took a guess at how long I'd survive in the Bounty Builder, and it was between 11-15 minutes, hence 11mi15". Oh, SilverTop picks up his 1535 Bounty, almost doubling his starting Bounty of 1676. - 2007SpaceOddyssey (11th Seed) makes a bold statement in Rd 1 by Ko'ing Genghis Khunt (95th Seed). Not bad, scores 1506 for the KO, His Bounty up to 3827!! - 33rd Seed I-Andrei off to a flyer by KO'ing Irishman13 early doors. Andrei takes his Bounty, moves on to a score of 1339 and now has a HUGE Bounty of 3452. - ClanKerr had 1st go at the Bounty Elimination Prize for KO'ing 1st Seed Craig25. Thankfully it was a fail, he did get a 1-1 Draw though. Not bad considering Craig25 Out Ranked him by 1267 Points though........... - 12th V 25th Seed, Shoe555 v HorseAttacks, Their Risk Brilliance cancels each other out and they share a 1-1 draw. Both Survive, Damn. Their bounties are unchanged. - Serreski off to a Flyer By Ko'ing CrazyStef and picking up a score of 916. His victory was marred with a Yellow Card though, for 'other' Fog offences (-:. Don't ask, my lip are sealed! - 15th Seed Sparrticus shows his Class Early Doors. KO's 53rd Seed FuatPanza winning his 1933 point Bounty. - 103rd Seed RudeDude74 gets a 1-1 Draw, Weird, He was playing a Stratgy_Master Seeded 23rd and ranked 807 points above him. Both Progress, Bounties unchanged. - Mint-Murray breaks Fog Rules in his 2 games. Auto Eliminated from Tournament. Yorkie Pudding gets a free pass in Rd 1, takes the mint's 1549 Bounty and progresses to Rd 2. It should be noted, Mint-Murray took the medicine of lost games like a man though. So all good. - Upset, Reichter Scale 4: 54th Seed Badata2D ELIMINATES 31st Seed Gematria74. Badata's Bounty now up to 4043! Tournament Score: 2114. Gematria's Poker Career over before it gets started. - 115th Seed TomTheGreat gets a 1-1 Draw with 50th Seed Kotaro. Kotaro was 861 points higher ranked so a decent result. Both progress to Rd 2 with Bounties intact. A 'Live' Scoreboard is attached to the Tournament thread (Bottom of lengthy 1st post). - Players highlighted Red have Completed Rd1 Games. - Yellow Blocks - The mark of shame, Yellow Card for Fog offences. Most are carried over from other Tournaments. - Orange Blocks, Players who broke Fog Rules in 1 Game and playing to win the other and/or investigation ongoing. Scroll to the Right for Total Score, this is what decides the winner. For the players who won their 1st match up, their 'New Bounty' is listed under 'Round 2' Bounty. This is what other players pick up if they KO them in Rd 2. For players who drew, their Bounty remains the same, but is also listed under 'Round 2' Bounty. As their score didn't increase in Rd 1, their Total Score remains at 0. Round 1 of a Fog Tournament, only 5 Fog Offences, Not bad Troops. But please note, I don't use Fog Rules to pad out my Tournament Pages, they are actually genuine Rules. Here they are again: FOG RULE: UNDERSTAND AND COMPLY FOLKS! Don't f*ck up your Tournament! THE FOG RULE IS IN PLACE TO PROTECT THE PLAYER ACCEPTING GAME INVITES FIRST. THE 12 HOUR RULE WILL APPLY. IF YOU JOIN THE GAME 2ND AND HAVE FIRST TURN THEN YOU MUST WAIT FOR 12 HOURS BEFORE TAKING YOUR SHOT SO THAT THE PLAYER GOING 2ND CAN SEE THE BOARD. YOU CAN ONLY TAKE YOUR TURN IN THE 1ST 12 HOURS IF THE OTHER PLAYER ADVISES HE HAS SAW THE BOARD IN THE GAME CHAT/WALL/ OR MAIL. IF YOU TAKE YOUR TURN IN THE FIRST 12 HOURS WITHOUT THIS HAPPENING AND THE OTHER PLAYER COMPLAINS TO ME THEN YOU AUTOMATICALLY LOSE THAT GAME, GIVING YOUR OPPONENT A MAJOR ADVANTAGE. TO BE CLEAR, JOINING THE GAME 2ND MEANS ACCPETING THE INVITATION AFTER THE FIRST PLAYER HAS ALREADY ACCEPTED. WHEN YOU ACCEPT GAME INVITES 2ND, THE GAME STARTS IMMEDIATELY. MEANING YOU CAN TAKE AN IMMEDIATE SNAP SHOT. MEANING THE PLAYER WHO ACCEPTED THE GAME INVITES FIRST CAN TAKE HIS SHOTS IMMEDIATELY AS YOU ARE AT NO DIS-ADVANTAGE. I WOULD SUGGEST PLAYERS JOINING THE GAME AFTER THE FIRST PLAYER HAS ALREADY ACCEPTED THE INVITATION SHOULD TAKE A SNAP SHOT BEFORE WAITING THE 12 HOURS. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Round 1 Update (Cont) 120 Games were taking place in Rd 1. 73 are Complete! 47 Remain.

Players who broke the Fog Rules in other Tournaments and who had an adverse reaction when they received the Fog Investigation E-Mail, aka the "Your'e Fucked" Mail. Or, they strongly accused their opponent of Breaking Fog Rules when in fact, they had accepted Game Invites 2nd. Green Block - 250 Credits for KO'ing Craig25 from the Tourney.

The Highlights of this Rd so far......................................................................... - The bigger they come, the harder they fall. And 3rd Seed Avi8or was big in every Department. Ranked 2762 at start of Tournment, his Bounty had risen to 4489. All that means nothing now. 28th Seed Bromi12 eliminates him. His score rockets to 6749 and his Bounty, well, please let me draw Bromi in the next Round, it's 8879!!!!!!!!!!! - 4th Seed LordMorgoth is looking good. He eliminates DrJustikles, aka Dr Death. Although the Doc was 96th Seed, he had a big Bounty. The Lord adds 3068 to his score and Bounty. - HMSPS picks up a massive 2809 Bounty from LayWon. And he didnāt need to do anything for it.

Round 3 Preview: Before starting the Round. You really need to download the Scoreboard for 2 reasons: 1- You would want to know what Bounty your opponent has on his head. 2- If your opponent is on a 'Yellow' Card he has FOG form, you'd also want to know that. To find it, go to Tournaments Tab at the top of your screen, Search Tournaments by Tournament Organizer:Craig25, the Scoreboard is attached at the bottom of the lengthy 1st post in a white box. To sort it into DRAW order just sort by the 'GAME NUMBER' Column on the right.

Nobody would want to be breaking FOG RULES: FOG RULE: UNDERSTAND AND COMPLY FOLKS! Don't f*ck up your Tournament! THE FOG RULE IS IN PLACE TO PROTECT THE PLAYER ACCEPTING GAME INVITES FIRST. THE 12 HOUR RULE WILL APPLY. IF YOU JOIN THE GAME 2ND AND HAVE FIRST TURN THEN YOU MUST WAIT FOR 12 HOURS BEFORE TAKING YOUR SHOT SO THAT THE PLAYER GOING 2ND CAN SEE THE BOARD. YOU CAN ONLY TAKE YOUR TURN IN THE 1ST 12 HOURS IF THE OTHER PLAYER ADVISES HE HAS SAW THE BOARD IN THE GAME CHAT/WALL/ OR MAIL. IF YOU TAKE YOUR TURN IN THE FIRST 12 HOURS WITHOUT THIS HAPPENING AND THE OTHER PLAYER COMPLAINS TO ME THEN YOU AUTOMATICALLY LOSE THAT GAME, GIVING YOUR OPPONENT A MAJOR ADVANTAGE.

ROUND 8 COMPLETE / ROUND 9 DRAW 2 Rounds remain, lets see who made it and who didn't to Round 9! 12 Players contested Round 8..........3 didn't make it: - Kotaro elimintes the Tournament Leader and the holder of a HUMUNGOUS Stack! The 50th Seed Scuds the 4th Seed Lord Morgoth who had a 46,371 Bounty!!! Kotro into the lead! - A MASSIVE TAKE DOWN for our 36th Seed IGotAiShed. He SCUDS 12th Seed SHOE555 and pockets his HUGE 10821 Bounty. In Igot's aftermatch interview he said, "Those shoes are made for walking"ā¦........ - Not only does 11th Seed miss out on the easiest 250 Credits he'll make in his life by failing to KO 1st Seed Craig25. He actually get's KO'd himself, a total FAIL!. Craig25 adds his 5426 Points to his score and Bounty! ROUND 9 PREVIEW: 9 Players Remain, as thats an ODD Number, 1 Faller from the Last Round gets re-instated back in. He may need to draw Kotaro and beat him within 2 Rounds to have any chance of winning the Tourney though. But with Prizes up for grabs for 2nd and 3rd, 2007spaceodyssey has a real chance of picking up something! So thats us up to 10. 5 Match Up's are taking place consisting of 10 games. REMEMBER THE FOG RULE!!!!! KOTARO is the TOURNAMENT LEADER..................................... He has DOUBLE the score of every other player. We maybe looking at a situation where all he needs to do is survive to win the Tourney..........MAYBE! In this Round, every player wants to play Kotaro! Nobody wants to play the re-entered 2007SpacyOdyssey. The Scoreboard is attached to the Tournament Forum, the draw is below, GL everyone: - Kotaro v igotaished - 50th v 36th Seed - 58657 v 24910 Points - akachip v pconnolly365 - 24th v 79th Seed - 27481 v 1386 Points - EspenOvergaard v vykingsfan64 - 9th v 82nd Seed - 23088 v 6580 Points - Craig25 v 2007spaceodyssey - 1st v 11th Seed - 18917 v ZERO Points - itstheGeneral v Scarlet Lady - 39th v 47th Seed - 17327 v 15304 Points ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
THE FINAL ROUND:
Gosh, it's tight now. ALMOST Nobody blinked in Round 9!
Of the 5 Match Up's taking place, only 1 player got a KO and increased his Score and Bounty:
- 24th Seed AKAChip pumped pconnolly365 to add 3011 Points to his score and bounty at a crucial stage.
Now, 9 players remain. As EVERYONE MUST PLAY, as we are at an ODD Number of survivors, PConnolly (They call him Lucky), gets re-entered back in with his Ranking as his Bounty and on a ZERO score. But with a lucky Draw.........he could still win the Tournament!
Ths final Scoreboard and Draw are absolutely CRUCIAL in this format!

- Players you don't want to Draw: 2007SpaceOdyssesey, PConnolly (KO Re-entries with a low Bounty)

So without further delay......here is the FINAL ROUND Draw!!!:

WINNER:
But before that, the remaining highlights:
- 36th Seed IGotaIShed could only DRAW against 79th Seed PConnolly365. But, a draw could possibly be enough to get him in the money!
- A LATE COMEBACK IN ROUND 10! 82nd Seed VykingsFan had only amassed a Bounty of 8K in 9 Rounds of Heads Up Risk. In Round 10, he faced the Goliath EspenOvergaard, the 9th Seed who had a 25K Bounty! 804 points HIGHER Ranked, Espen was the heavy favourite, but, for the 2nd time in this Tourney, he was KO'd! 'The Vyking' ends on a score of 32,091!
- A HUGE Result at the death! 47th Seed Scarlet Lady faced off v 24th Seed AKAChip. Scarlet was on 17K and AKA 32K. Scarlet produced the goods to send AKA to the rail in the FINAL Round. AKA OUT, Scarlet Lady finished with a stack of 47,984 Points!
- Our 50th Seed Kotaro faced the Top Seed Craig25. The outcome was simple, Win and he wins the TOURNEY AND picks up the 250 Credits for KO'ing 'The Organiser', LOSE and he heads for the exit door with NOTHING! Turns out, it was neither, he Draws to take the Title of Poker Champ. Fiinishing on a MASSIVE STACK of 58,657 Points!
