3 medals will be given in this tournament. 1 to each player on the super bowl winning team & 1 to the player who wins the Season MVP award for winning the most games during the regular season. (Tie breaker games will apply in case of a tie)
SHORT VERSION OF TOURNAMENT LAYOUT You will be playing 1vs1 games in regular season but your games will count with your partners games as a “Team” win, loss or tie for that week. Playoffs will consist of 2 - 1vs1 games and 1 - 2vs2 dubs played at the same time with your partner. SUPER BOWL will be 3 – 2vs2 games with your partner.
This will be a FULL NFL season (17 weeks) with playoffs( 3 weeks), Super Bowl(1 week) and Probowl (1 week). For a total of 22 Weeks starting the Week of Sept 9th.
We will use the 2010 NFL Schedule for entire regular season including bye weeks.
GENERAL TOURNAMENT REQUIRMENTS – MINIMUM POINTS NEEDED TO JOIN (1000 or above) - ATTENDANCE (98% OR ABOVE) - RATINGS (4.5 OR ABOVE)
IF EVERYTHING ABOVE SOUNDS LIKE YOU WOULD LIKE TO JOIN THEN PLEASE READ “SLOTS NEEDED”, “SIGN UP RULES, REQUIREMENTS, GAME RESTRICTIONS” BELOW BEFORE POSTING!
[spoiler=LONG VERSION OF TOURNAMENT LAYOUT]REGULAR SEASON - Will be 17 weeks with each team having 8 home games for each player and 8 away games and 1 bye week. You will be playing 1 vs 1 games but playing with your partner as a “Team”.
Here’s an example of how each week works.
Team 1(home team) VS. Team 2 (NOTE: HOME TEAMS FOR THAT WEEK PLAY ON THEIR HOME MAPS)
Offense – Player1 VS. Offense – Player 2 - on player 1 home map
Defense – Player 1a VS. Defense – Player 2a – on player 2 home map
If team 1 wins both 1 vs 1 games they get 1 win in the win, column.
Team 2 would get a 1 in the loss column.
If the teams split the wins, both teams get 1 in the tie column. Simple eh?
Playoffs – Elimination rounds - 12 teams will make the playoffs – Tie breakers to making to the playoffs will be in the following order. Overall record, Division record, Head to head record, Strength of schedule etc. (NFL Tie breaking rules apply)
Teams making playoffs will be...
NFC – 4 division winners + 2 wildcard teams advance to playoffs.
AFC - 4 division winners + 2 wildcard teams advance to playoffs.
Playoff Rounds & Seeding – ALL games set by Seeding. Best win record always plays the lowest win record and has "Home field advantage". Once seedings are established, I will ask teams for a Dubs home map.
Play off rounds
Week 1 - Wildcard Weekend - 1- 1vs1 game for each player & 1- 2vs2 dubs game
NFC – Top 2 division winners in NFC get a week 1 bye. The remaining 2 division winners play the two wildcard teams.
Two NFC week 1 winners advance to week 2 divisional playoff round.
AFC - Top 2 division winners in AFC get a week 1 bye. The remaining 2 division winners play the two wildcard teams.

[spoiler=SIGN UP RULES how to, REQUIRMENTS, GAME RESTRICTIONS]You must sign up in tourney thread as “Partners” on the same NFL team. For each player you must pick your NFL Team name (Same team), Offense or Defense for each player, plus 1 Home map for each player and all settings for each player on your team. 1vs1 Maps & settings can be different for each teammate or the same.
Example of proper signup.
Philadelphia Eagles
Offense - mgconstruction - Castle Lands - no spoils, chained, no fog
Defense - shoop76 - treasures of gallapagos - no spoils, chained, foggy
GAME SETTING RESTRICTIONS All games shall be Standard, Automatic, Sequential and Casual. All other settings are up to the players.
GAME MAP RESTRICTIONS – No Beta Maps, most players don’t play these until they are out of beta & creates an unfair advantage. As well as changes are still being made to these maps & tend to get changes made during our season. Last year we had a beta map taken down during the season.[/spoiler]
[spoiler=PENALTIES]–While I understand the competition is very high & there are prizes at stake. Going into another players game that is not your partner to help them win is considered “Off sides” & will result in a ½ win deduction for your team. Smack talk is ok, in fact its encouraged but any breaking of CC rules in game chat is strictly prohibited. Any racism or bigotry will not be tolerated & will result in a “Personal Foul” which carries a penalty of a “Remainder of the season misconduct”. Failure to have your opponent off your foe list when invites go out will result in a forfeit.[/spoiler]
[spoiler=CHOOSE YOUR PARTNER WISELY]–I suggest you choose a partner you know well. What your partner does is a direct reflection on you. If your partner is kicked for being a Multi, your whole team gets replaced in tourney. If a player gets kicked from tourney for any other reason, the remaining partner has 48 hours to find another partner. If you cannot find one, the whole team gets replaced.[/spoiler]
