by **Teflon Kris** on Fri May 29, 2009 7:24 am

This tournament was won by JammyJames. Well played !!

This is a tournament running in connection with the Trans-Atlantic Speed League.

The format will be 3-to-6-Player Terminator games.

Matches will be on Fridays, 10.00PM GMT (5.00PM EST) on 19 June and 26 June.

Premium players as its 'speed' .

If a player misses his (or her) match then (s)he will be eliminated.

As with previous speed tournaments, the tournament will run with however many players we have (minimum 16, maximum 21). Adjustments are made to the number of players in each match in the first round if necessary. Past experience shows that, including last minute sign-ups, we are highly likely to have the full quota of 21 players.

Players

show: There will be 21 players.

Players must have a 97% attendance record, have played a minimum 25 matches, and not have dropped out from one of my tournaments previously!

Winners of each match should PM the Tournament Organiser.

Reserves

show: For the quarter-finals, reserves will be recruited from live speed games. If a player fails to show then reserves will be sent a PM when an opening occurs. The first reserve to respond will gain a place.

For the semi-finals and final, if a player fails to show then matches will take place with one fewer player.

Joining Matches

show: Players will be informed of the match details by PM just before the start time. They must join by no later than 5 minutes after the start time. If they fail to do so then they will be ejected from the tournament and a reserve will replace them.

Winning Matches

show: Winners of each match are expected to PM the Tournament Organiser.

Seedings / The Draw

show: Players will be drawn at random by random.org. In the event of there being an uneven number of the players then one first round match will have one less or one more player - this will also be determined b random.org

Partnerships / Regular opponents

show: Players 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 players 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 players 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.

Does this include me? I see my name on the list, so are you inviting new players for the cup? Or are we in automatically; as in; is this the next league set-up? Just curious, as I am down for whatever, as long as I keep my 7 EST start time on a regularly basis, unless it is a playoff then I will adjust to home field advantage if it is GMT or +1,2,3 etc. GMT.
