Pity about the yellow card.
Anyway, for clarification, how many teams advance from phase 2?
8 or just the 4 winners?
12 move on. 2 from each group.
[spoiler=phase 2]In phase 2, the 16 remaining teams will be placed in different groups depending on their score in the first phase : the 16 teams will be placed in order 1 to 16, according to the number of games won (and then according to registration order).
In group 1, we will have number 1,8,9
In group 2, we will have number 2,7,10
In group 3, we will have number 3,6,11
In group 4, we will have number 4,5,12
Within each group, each team will meet each other on 10 maps:
1. Classic escalating, sun
2. Poison Rome, no card, fog
3. Drugs war, no card, fog
4. Berlin 1961, no card, sun
5. Arms race !, escalating, fog
6. Holy roman empire, no card, sun
7. Egypt Nubia, no card, sun
8. Battle for Irak, escalating, fog
9. France, no card, sun
10. 8 thoughts, escalating, fog
After the 10 games “battle”, the winner will be credited with 2 points and the loser with 0 point. In case of draw (5-5), there will be one point for each team. Each team will play 20 games in this second phase. Invitation for 5 games will be sent every 10 days, or even every two weeks. Idea is to maintain the average game load at or below 5 active games at a time during phase 2 too. Phase 2 might well end in January or February 2012.
Same rules than for phase 1 will apply to determine who is first within a given group : number of points, then number of games won and then more complex rules with, as necessary, setting up of tie braker game.[/spoiler]
Doesn't explain it to me. Indeed it seems to be quite confusing with the 16 and 12 references. But thats only going to phase 2, I'm asking about end of phase 2 as well (winners of each group?)
But yes, the overview does seem to explain it better, so sorry about that
