The Jack Of All Maps: Season 2

by **Luvr** on Tue Jul 22, 2008 7:40 am

Open to all, only 1 game slot needed per round.

This is The Jack of All Maps tournament series. There are 12 rounds and 12 maps per tournament, 4-6 players per game and all but the first eliminated from each game move on to the next round. Each round will be a different map, chosen at random.

I'll host a bunch of The Jack of All Maps tourneys, and when all the maps have been covered in at least 1 tournament I will host a Jack of all Maps: Masters tournament where the winners from the previous tournaments compete to see who is the ultimate Jack Of All Maps.

Changes to Season 2: I've decided to take out Flat Rate games. I feel they add too much of the luck factor to games (and made a round 2 of Season 1 last forever). All games are now either escalating or no cards with either chained or unlimited forts. If many people want flat rate games back in the tournament say something and we'll see.

Round Details:
*75 entrants, 12 rounds, 4-6 players per round
*Players in each game are random the same way maps are chosen
Round 1: 75 people in 15 games (5 players/game) - 4/game advance to Round 2
Round 2: 60 people in 12 games (5 players/game) - 4/game advance to Round 3
Round 3: 48 people in 8 games (6 players/game) - 5/game advance to Round 4
Round 4: 40 people in 8 games (5 players/game) - 4/game advance to Round 5
Round 5: 32 people in 8 games (4 players/game) - 3/game advance to Round 6
Round 6: 24 people in 4 games (6 players/game) - 5/game advance to Round 7
Round 7: 20 people in 4 games (5 players/game) - 4/game advance to Round 8
Round 8: 16 people in 4 games (4 players/game) - 3/game advance to Round 9
Round 9: 12 people in 2 games (6 players/game) - 5/game advance to Round 10
Round 10: 10 people in 2 games (5 players/game) - 4/game advance to Round 11
Round 11: 8 people in 2 games (4 players/game) - 3/game advance to Finals
Finals: 6 players in 1 game

Maps and Settings:
*To pick maps I used a random number picker between 1-87 (for 87 maps numbered left to right, top to bottom).
*If a number comes up twice I'm ignoring it until all maps are used
*Settings I picked with variety and game length in mind.
*The number in brackets beside the map is the map's number
Round 1: Asia (12)/Esc/Chained/Sunny
Round 2: Texan Wars (74)/Esc/Unlimited/Sunny
Round 3: South America (70)/No Cards/Chained/Sunny
Round 4: Cairns Coral Coast (21)/Esc/Unlimited/Sunny
Round 5: Netherlands (55)/Esc/Chained/Sunny
Round 6: Age Of Realms 1 (4)/No Cards/Unlimited/Sunny
Round 7: WWII Eastern Front(83)/No Cards/Chained/Sunny
Round 8: Alexander's Empire (7)/No Cards/Unlimited/Sunny
Round 9: Solar System (69)/No Cards/Unlimited/Sunny
Round 10: Caribbean Islands (23)/Esc/Chained/Sunny
Semi-Finals: Rail Europe (64)/No Cards/Unlimited/Sunny
Final: BeNeLux (17)/Esc/Chained/Sunny

Think of the whole thing like a TV series similiar to Survivor. This is season 2, we'll have 1 winner. After all the maps are used in at least 1 season we'll grab all the winners from each season and throw them into a tournament by themselves to see is the ultimate survivor (or in this case the Jack Of All Maps).

by **frankroz** on Wed Jul 23, 2008 12:17 pm

I'm in for sure

part of round 1 right now and i love the setup

I was part of the game that lasted forever in round 2......the funny thing is none of us took into account that the 3 remaining players were all going to advance to the next round, we were all playing as if it were the championship game.

So flat rate is alright, but I do like the idea of eliminated the "luck" factor.
