Don't Panic! [CANCELED]

Post by RedBaron0 »

Image

For eons we have asked questions about life, the universe and everything. The answer? 42

But the REAL question is... what's the ultimate question to which the answer is 42? Well, lets find out shall we? 2 groups of 42 players will gather and compete to discover what the Ultimate question is. Your brains will be probed during the tournament; their combined computational power will yield the answer we seek... the Ultimate question.

Freemiums welcome
1 game slot is required!

Premium Prize!
9 months Premium membership will be given to the over all winner of this Tournament, 3 months will be given to the runner up.
With the expansion of the tournament I will take the original prize and split it between the 2 division winners(3 months per division winner), AND include a prize for an overall winner with a 1v1 final series for all the marbles of an additional 6 months premium!(That's 9 months total to the overall winner!)

The perticulars:

Each group of 42 players will be given 2 games at a time to play, you will play with the following settings:

Standard
6 players
Unlimited
Escalating
Fog
Sequential
Map: British Isles

You must acumulate points from your games. The first 6 players in each group to gain 42 points(or more) and remain there after the completion of all active games; will advance to the Finals.

Tiebreaker:
Most victories
1v1 game with the same settings

Scoring:
1st: 3 points
2nd: 1 point
3rd: 0
4th: 0
5th: 0
6th: -2 points

Note: your point total will never drop below 0

Games will be determined randomly using the random.org list randomizer.

Group Finals:

The final 6 will play 1 game using the most complicated and powerful computer ever constructed, the EARTH(version 2.1) The settings will remain the same from previous round. The winner is the champion of the tournament and will finally know the Ultimate question to which the ultimate answer of life, the universe and everything is 42.

The Championship Series:
You must help design the new 'Earth' supercomputer, starting with AFRICA. I want fjords damnit, lots of them. It'll be a best of 5 series with these settings:

Africa
Unlimited
Escalating
Fog
Sequential

Uh, do you start off with a positive number? If starting at 0, you could come in last and not lose anything right off of the bat.
