This tournament is open to anyone with more than
100 games played and 1000 points .
I'll keep open for up to 3 weeks and will need a minimum of 16 people.
The tournament is basically a showdown on the
Pirates and Merchants map with some play on the
High Seas possible. Details below.
The Last 16 show
The last 16 play the following: Everyone plays 3 games at the same time. Format is 8 player (3 games played at same time) All on Pirates and Merchants map Automatic Sequential Escalating Chained Fog 30 Round Limit No Trench 8 points for a win, going down to 1 point for 8th place. As there is no elimination on this map then the ranking will be done by troop count at round limit or objective completion. If a player wins by completing their objective then they will receive a bonus 2 points. Tied troop count will split the points equally between the players. All players are ranked in the same table and top 8 proceed to the final. (If 8th place is tied then a decider will be played on the High Seas with standard settings, escalating, fog and 30 round limit)
The Final show
The final 8 play 1 game to decide the winner: Pirates and Merchants map Automatic Sequential Flat Rate Chained Fog 50 Round Limit No Trench
More than 16 players? show
If we have more than 16 then qualifications will apply - to be played on the High Seas map with Automatic, Sequential, Escalating Chained, Sunny, 20 Round Limit, No Trench. These games will be randomly drawn and will have a maximium of 4 players. Depending on number of players the first to sign up to the tournament will be exempt from the qualification phase. I will be at position 16 so if we have more than 16 players I must participate in qualification. 17-19 players: 1 qualification game - first 15 exempt 20-22 players: 2 qualification games - first 14 exempt 23-25 players: 3 qualification games - first 13 exempt ...and so on.... Example: we have 21 people sign up for the tournament. First 14 are exempt which leaves 2 qualificiation games. One with 4 players, the other with 3. The winners of both games proceed.
Good Luck and have fun
