In the case of the tie, there will be a single tiebreaker game, Classic, Escalating, Chained. Please see rules in the first page.
OK, not trying to be difficult, but a 3-way tie? I suppose a 4-way tie is easy, though lengthy.

Sir Titus and firstholliday won Game 1053515 against jiminski and Uberwald.
That puts us at 5 points with one more game to finish, I believe.

That's a bit tricky since you made my partners ignore list.
I will make sure you are in different start group, but after that, I guess your partner would need to take him off from the ignore list for the tournament games.
Thanks Andrew. well lets see how far we come.
I know for sure that Titus will leave him there, and i am 100% backing him on this one.
1st
If you would happen to play together, your partner would need to take him out from his ignore list just to start the game. Right after that he can put him back on the ignore list.
There is no other way, sorry. I know, altergren can be very rude sometimes, but u dont have to listen to him, just kick his butt
Panic over! there is absolutely no chance of First and Titus making it past the first round!
True Jimbo, if you were not in the same poule as us, we might not have made it. Your 2 points are welcome.

Ok, 3-way tie sounds good to me, as long as all 3 games are played in the same time. (Pending comments from other players).
I just don't want to lengthen the tournament unnecessarily...

Do you want to see unlimited forting to be gone from the future rounds?
No
37% [ 9 ]
Yes, replace them with chained
50% [ 12 ]
Yes, replace then with adjacent
4% [ 1 ]
Yes, replace them with 50% chained and 50% adjacent

congrats scott!
In order to make EVERY game interested and EVERY game count, i have added new rule to the regulations:
6. The 50% of points difference will be transfered to the next round. For example: your team get 8 points and the lowest qualified team gets 5 points. You have 1.5=3/2 points transfered to the next round. The lowest qualified team gets 0 points transfered to the next round.

end what exactly does second qualified team get, is it the same math for second team too assuming you are talking about 1st team in your example

In the case of a three way tie, we will play 3 tie-braker games in total. Each team will play against the other team once.
If 3 tie-braker games are not enough, I will reviewed how each team played against each other. If that won't established the winner, then team with the highest rating will proceed.
