In this tournament, youāll play in six different brackets (so you could be in up to 6 games at a time). This tourney focuses on original maps (Classic, USA and France) and updated 2.1 maps (World 2.1, USA 2.1 and France 2.1). Note France 2.1 is still in beta. If it should become unavailable at any time during the tourney, we will use France 1789 instead. Premiums only due to the game load (and this is a poly tourney). Each bracket is single elimination, and youāll be randomly placed into each bracket. All games will be Polymorphic, Auto, Sequential, Escalating, Chained, Fog, 20 round limit. Bracket 1 will be Poly 2 played on the Classic Map. Bracket 2 will be Poly 2 played on the USA Map. Bracket 3 will be Poly 3 played on the France Map. Bracket 4 will be Poly 3 played on the France 2.1 Map. Bracket 5 will be Poly 4 played on the USA 2.1 Map. Bracket 6 will be Poly 4 played on the World 2.1 Map. Winning any game will earn you a single point. If you make the semifinals, you will earn an additional 2 points. If you make the finals, you will earn an additional 2 points as well. You will also earn 2 points if you win the bracket. Most points win the tournament. In case of any ties (for TPA scoring purposes), the first tie breaker will be best score on bracket 5. If still tied, we will consider scores on brackets 2, 6, 3, 1, then 4. If scores are tied on each bracket, the winner will be the person who signed up for the tourney earlier. Looking for 32 players. Signups will remain open until at least Feb 16. If more than 32 players sign up, the tourney may be expanded. If that happens, this post will be edited to explain how that will be handled.
EDIT 2/18/15: Since we have 37 players, I am accepting all entrants. For each bracket, 10 players will be required to play "play in" games to make the main round of 32. Each player will play in one of these, and some people will play in 2, but I will divide it as evenly as possible. You will earn a point for winning these games.
