KingBohica's 2.1 Tourney [Winner - crazy4catnip]
Posted: Fri Apr 30, 2010 8:37 pm
Hi there, I would like to start a tournament and as this will be the 1st I am hosting please feel free to lend any pertinent advice. Here is what I have in mind:
Map: World 2.1
Standard, Automatic, Sequential, Flat Rate, Unlimited, Foggy, Casual
The seeding will be done a little differently than what I have seen in the past. We will start with 48 players (plus 6 reserves) who will be divided into 8 different 6 player games. Players will be ordered from highest to lowest rank, and everyone will be playing people of similar skill (at least on the 1st game). The top 6 players will be group 1, the 7th-12th best players will be group 2, etc. All the way to the lowest 6 players all in group 8. You need not win your game to move on, as the 1st 3 players eliminated in each game are out of the tournament, and the 3 survivors go on to the next game even if the game is not finished. So, round 2 and 3 will be composed of the 6 winners of the previous round (3 from 2 different games) Group 1 playing group 2, etc. The final round will be the 6 surviving players, winner take all. I can't see any possibilities of a tie.
In the event reserves are needed for the 1st round, I will take the average rank of the players who are in the group needing an extra player, and use the reservist whose score is the closest fit. Freemiums are welcome, however you must keep 4 games open at all times*, as it would be possible to be playing in the final round while still having the previous 3 games going.
Feel free to post any questions, comments or concerns. Thanks! 8¬D
Not sure if it's required for me to post that I'll be playing, but to be on the safe side, I'm of course in.
*Edit: Freemiums must have 4 games open at the start of the tournament, 3 games open after their 1st game is finished, 2 games open after their 2nd game is finished, 1 game open after their 3rd game is finished.
Seedings are up, and are based on the most recent scores as of approximately 11:00 am Central Time, May 15th. As soon as we have enough reserves, games will be sent out. Good Luck! Thanks for playing! =]
In the event that a player drops out of a group, and there is not a reservist no more than 200 points higher than the hightest player in that group to replace them, a 5 player game will be used and only 2 players will be eliminated from that game.
