Details: This is an 18-player tournament, designed for players to work towards their Beta or Cross-Map Awards.
The tournament features the following maps: France 2.1 Promontory Summit Krazy Kingdoms WWI Gallipoli
Players must select a group for the initial stage. (If a group is not selected then players will be assigned randomly to free slots when 18 players have registered) Each group involves a terminator game (Esc, Ch, Fog, No Trench), plus 1 v 1 games against all other players in the group on Promontory Summit (Esc, Ch, Sunny, No Trench). Players must be premium (as there are more than 4 matches at once), have a 97% attendance record, and have checked the full details below and selected a group before joining.
In Phase I, 18 players will be split into 3 groups of 6 competitors. In the terminator battle, the winning competitor will score 2 points. All players will also score 1 point for each termination. In 1 v 1 battles, the winner will score 1 point.
The top 2 competitors* from each group will progress to the next round.
Final Stage
In the Final Phase, 6 competitors will undertake terminator battles on WWI Gallipoli**, Krazy Kingdoms** & France 2.1** (Esc, Ch, Fog), plus 1 v 1 games against all other players in the group on Promontory Summit** (Esc, Ch, Sunny). Points scoring will be as above (points are reset to 0).
The competitor with most points will be declared the Winner.
In the event of competitors finishing with equal points, a tie-break battle will be played.
* If necessary competitors will also be compared on the number of terminations, then number of rounds survived in the phase in question. If this does not prove to determine qualifying competitors then a tie-break battle will occur.
** If any of the maps are no longer Beta at the start of the final phase then they will not be used.
Competitors must have a 97% attendance record, have played a minimum 25 matches, and not have dropped out from one of my tournaments previously! Premiums only.
Competitors will have 24 hours to join their battles from when the joining invite is sent. Failure to do so will result in a reserve being sought (harsh, I know).
All reserves will be sent a PM when an opening occurs. The first reserve to respond will gain a place.
For the first stage, reserves will be drawn from the reserve list.
In the second stage & final stage, reserves will be drawn from competitors eliminated from the previous stage (initially to the competitor finishing 4th in the group from which the missing player came (in the case of play-offs), or from the first losing play-off competitor to respond (in the case of a group stage), then from the first competitor finishing in 3rd or 4th place to respond, then from the first of any knocked-out competitor to respond).
If a player misses a turn then he cannot score any points in the game in question. If a player deadbeats at any stage then he will be ejected from the tournament.
Competitors must inform the tournament organiser if they have a regular partner or opponent that is also featuring in the tournament. The organizer can then ensure these competitors do not play together to avoid any potential claims of foul play by other players.
If reports of suspected foul play are made and the competitors in question have not declared that they are regular partners / opponents then they will be both be ejected from the tournament without question or the need for irrefutable evidence.
Where fog of war is present, the competitor who goes first in round 1 must either wait 10 hours before taking their turn, or inform their opponent(s) in game chat of any regions conquered during their first move, and who from. Failure to do either will mean the competitor in question is unable to score any points in the game.
Players must contact the Tournament Organiser by PM to alert him to any indiscretions of the rule.
Dice stats are irrelevant. If I roll the same amount of 6's as everyone else, but my opponents role 6's at the same time, that's what matters, what's rolled opposite my dice. How about how many total guys I've won and lost while attacking?
