[spoiler=requirements and notes]
We play 12 rounds with 20 games in total. You may play up to 6 games at the same time. You get 1 point for every opponent beaten, bonus maps are double points. The player with the most points at the end wins. There is a 30 round cap on every game (*see note), no points will be awarded after round 30, except for the points you already earned in terminator games [edit] and games finished by the round limit feature. If you win a Terminator game because of the Round Limit Feature, you get the 5 points for the win, but not the points for the kills, unless you killed somebody before the round limit. [/edit]
*Note: Changed back from 50 to 30 because of the upgrade of the new round cap feature, which now has a choice of 20, 30, 50 or 100 rounds.
