**TO ENROLL, YOU MUST LIST WHAT CONFERENCE YOU WISH TO JOIN (BIG TEN, SEC, BIG TWELVE, PAC TWELVE, BIG EAST, ACC)**
** PREMIUMS ONLY**


College Football season has begun! That means that the controversial BCS system is just around the corner... =D>

The BCSCC Tournament is open to all premium members. There are (48) participants, each playing a minimum of (12) games. Players are divided into (6) divisions of (8) teams:

    FULL Big Ten (Play on USA Great Lakes)
    FULL SEC (Play on USA Southeast)
    FULL Big Twelve (Play on USA Southwest)
    FULL Pac Twelve (Play on USA West)
    FULL Big East (Play on USA New England)
    FULL ACC (Play on USA Southeast)
    Every participant plays every other member of their division, as well as (5) non-conference games against randomly assigned opponents (the schedule will be posted before the 'season' begins).

    Standings in the BCSCCT are based partly on CC rank, but primarily on ACCRUED TOURNAMENT POINTS (i.e. the points that count towards your rank). The more points you acquire, the higher you place. A win against a high-ranked opponent moves you higher in the rankings than one against a low-ranked opponent.

    For preseason rankings, I will rank the top 25 teams based on CC rank score. The top-rated player receives a score of 50 points to start the season; the 25th-rated player receives a score of 2 points. Any players outside of the top 25 begin the season with a score of 0. When you win or lose, the points affecting your CC rank will be added to or subtracted from your score every round to determine the rankings.

    At the end of the season, each divisional champion (i.e. player with the best conference record) and the next 4 highest-scoring participants (10 players total) advance to the tournament round. Ties will be settled by head to head record, or, if necessary, their +/- rating. Players are seeded for tournament play based on their +/- rating. The top 2 players in the BCSCC rankings receive byes for the first two rounds of tournament play.

      1 vs 1, Single
      Automatic
      Sequential
      No Spoils
      Chained
      No Fog
      No trench

All conference games are played on the conference's 'home' map. All non-conference games are played on map USA.

TOURNAMENT ROUNDS:
Best of 3 (each player's home map and USA)

CHAMPIONSHIP:
Best of 5 (each player's home map x2, and USA)


Who's in?

in please
big east.

Can you please elaborate on the point system.
Do we start the season ranked or unranked?
How many points do we get for a win. How many points do we get against a ranked team and so on.

It is hard enough that no one really understand how BCS do their math ;)
But we need to understand the math behind your point system.

You gain/lose as many points in the standings as you do with your ranking. I'll look at the last entry of each tournament game log, and add or subtract those points to determine the standings (i.e. after the first game, only 1/2 of the players will have a positive rating). Does that make sense?

There are no preseason rankings.

So in that case. it means that a low CC ranked player that won 8 games in the regular season might end up with more points than a high ranked CC player that won 9 games. If so, I don't think it is fair. Please cancel my registration.

yup. It opens it up for lower-ranked players if they can win their games against better opponents. However, 12 games should even things out, and the best should rise to the top. That's the BCS :)

Do you expect a low-ranked player to win 2/3 of their games? I don't - if they do, they probably deserve a spot in the top 1/6...

No worries - registration canceled.

Yeah that is very plausible, especially on these generic maps which generally come down to drop and who plays first.
