So, you think you are good at Das Schloss. If so, then this is the tourney for YOU.
I'm interested in seeing how the best Das Schloss teams at CC would do if faced off against each other. I've already done a dubs tourney just like this, and I would like to try a triples one now.
Settings: auto, seq, chained, no spoils, fog, no trench
Team Type: Trips
# of Teams: 16 (this number can change based on interest)
If this tourney receives a lot of interest, I will make a quads tourney with the same format. I've already done a dubs, and I had a good turnout.[/spoiler]
[spoiler= Tourney Summary]This tourney will have four rounds.
Round 1: Preliminaries
Duration- 3 weeks (3 games per week)
16 teams will be divided into 4 groups. Each group will have 4 teams.
All 4 teams in the same group will play each other three times. This will make a total of 9 games. These 9 games will be sent out over a 3 week period- 3 games per week.
The top 2 teams in each group will advance to the next round. In the event of a tie, the winner will be determined by the team that won the most games in the head to head match. If that doesn't determine a winner, the teams will play a best 2 of 3 tie-breaker series.
Also, let's take this situation: If 3 teams all go 6-3 and the fourth goes 0-9. I will have the three tied teams replay each other twice, and tally up the scores of those.
Quarter Finals: There will be 8 teams left in the tournament. The 8 teams will be divided into two groups of four. I will make sure all the teams in these groups, did not previously face each other in round 1.
Each team will play the other teams in their group three times each. The top two teams in each division advance to the semi-finals.
Semi- Finals: Four teams will be left.
The teams will be divided into two groups of two. Once again, each team will have never faced each other before in prior rounds.
Each team will play each other five times.
The winner of each group will advance to the final.
Final Round:
The two final teams will play in a best 3 of 5 series. The winning team will win the tourney.[/spoiler]
[spoiler= Policy on Missed Invites]I have low-tolerance for missed invites. It's takes a lot of time for me to type and send all the invites, and I am not a fan of having to do it again.
I understand that things happen, and players may occasionally miss invites. However, if an invite is missed, I will wait until the end of the round to re-send that invitation. If the game deletes, I will re-make it at the end of the round.
This tourney is set up so that each team will receive 3 invites per week during the first and second rounds of this tourney. Of course, in the event of missed invites, games may start at different times, and more or less invites may occur during that week.
If a player misses their invite, they will have to wait until the end of the round for their games to be re-made. If a player politely notifies me of the miss, I will often make an exception and re-send the invite. Also, the pw for all tourney games is Violet. If you accidentally miss, you can rejoin yourself by typing in the pw.[/spoiler]

And this means that in the semifinal best 2 teams will face each other, and worse two will also face each other... And in the final best team will face best team from a group of worse teams... Meaning the winner might have minimal number of victories and still win the tournament. I have no idea why the organizer is forcing worse teams up to the final.
