Mayor of Woodboro

[flexmaster33]

All right, this one is inspired by Portland's (my home town) recent mayoral race that included 18 candidates for the role in the city's first ranked choice election.

I've chosen Woodboro for this tourney based on dominating the airwaves for your campaign.
And I've chosen Madness to represent the need to reach out door-to-door with your campaign message

Prizes

300 for Mayor (tourney winner)
150 for 2nd place
100 for 3rd place

Tourney

Maps: Woodboro and Madness
Style: Everyone will play four 4-player maps with settings of flat, adjacent, sunny (20-round limit)
Everyone will also play a round-robin of 30 ... 1 vs. 1 maps with settings of escalating, chained, fog (20-round limit).

We will have two phases of voting.
Mail-in voting: 1 multi on Woodboro, 1 multi on Madness ... 15 ... 1-vs. 1 round-robin games involving both maps.
Election Day voting: A repeat of the above format.

Candidates will accrue votes based on how they perform in each of these maps.
Basically, win maps and get eliminations to gain the most votes. Get eliminated in a long battle and you will get more votes than if you go out early.

The total number of votes at stake on each map are the total troops + troops due at the end of the game.

Here's a general look at the scoring table.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Once all of the games go active, we will start releasing the early mail-in vote count.
Once ALL votes are in (all maps complete), we will start the ranked vote process.

The person with the least amount of votes is eliminated from the race, and their votes are dispersed to the other candidates based on how the others performed against the eliminated person.
Once a candidate has achieved 50% of the total vote, they win the mayoral seat (tourney).

The ranked choice cycle continues after each dispersal. The candidate with the least amount of votes is eliminated and another dispersal of their votes takes place.

Basically, you want to gain as many wins and eliminations in the quickest time to ensure you are accruing maximum votes.

Looking for three more candidates and we'll get this campaign started

[flexmaster33]

Sign-ups seem stagnant, so knocking it down to the minimum CC requirement of 16 candidates, so one more sign-up and we'll get started.

Instead of 6-player multi games, those will now be 4-player multi games.

Initial batch of games have been sent out.

I'll sent another batch of 1 vs. 1s early next week.

Time to hit the stump and sway some voters
