Full details are in the final post.

DK's Christmas Quads

In anticipation of the Christmas map being opened up soon for some limited period, I'd like to have a Christmas tournament ready to go. With a limited-time map, running multiple rounds is too risky, so this will be a one-round Round Robin (do you suppose Guinness want to know how many times I can use "round" in one sentence?)

So: Eight teams, single Round Robin, every team plays every other team once, for a net total of seven games each. All seven games will be posted at once, so you must be premium to enter this.

Settings: Casual Automatic No Spoils Chained Foggy No Round Limit Quads
Map: Christmas

The team winning the most games wins the tournament. In case of a tie, we go to:
[spoiler=tie-breaking rules]1. WIns by objective: We will give an extra win for each win by Map Objectives (as opposed to killing off the other team) and see if that breaks the tie. This will apply ONLY as a tiebreaking rule; there will be no extra wins awarded to teams who are not tied for first place.

2. Fastest Wins: Looking only at the game you won, we will count the rounds it took. So, a team that won (for instance) 5 games in 60 rounds will beat a team that needed 70 rounds to finish its 5 wins.

3. Slowest Losses: In the extremely unlikely case that there is still a tie after rule 1 and rule 2 are applied, we will go to the converse. Looking at the games you lost, how long did you survive? A team that survived 20 rounds in its two lost games will beat a team that only survived 18 rounds.[/spoiler]

Please sign up quickly, so that we are ready when the map is opened!

Ok. Normally I make it a policy not to play in my own tournaments, but I guess I can make an exception. I mean, if Kris Kringle can lower himself to working at Macy's, then anything is possible...

Rouge baron does not exist.

I assume this is just a typo. Sending PM to Zhukov1968.

Ok, rouge baron = rouge_baron.

I've made all the games, but I'm stuck at work with brain-dead Internet Explorer instead of being at home with Firefox, and I just can't deal with doing invites with this system.

Ok, I got home safe and sound...

All invitations have been sent out now.

Merry Christmas, everybody!

Apparantly I screwed up a couple of the invitations this morning. I was pretty tired. I hope everybody is on the correct team now...

All games have now successfully started!

Merry Christmas and best of luck to everyone!

Just had a quick look.. looks like nolefan's team, Blitz's team, Seamus team are all tied with 4 wins a piece so far.
Demen's team has 1 win, the rest of us have none yet.

I will have a more detailed look on the weekend.

Only four active games now!

Only three active games this morning.

This was a fun one Duk! We learned it a little too late to compete but it was great. We'll be in it to win it next year!
