The Whole Sha-Bang! [Winner: Dcc1220]
Posted: Tue Dec 30, 2008 12:18 pm
UPDATE: I lowered the number of players from 64 to 32, and because of that, I took out the last round of play (solar system).
Hello Fellow CC Players,
This is my first tournament so hopefully this all works out. Try to stick with me.
This tournament will be composed of 35 players. It will be bracket styled tournament, consisting of 5 rounds (the bracket will look like a bracket for the NCAA Basketball Tournament, except for 32 players instead of 64).
Each round will be played with the format of the best of 3. This will hopefully give all players a shot at coming back if he/she was the victim of a bad drop. I will be making 2 games, and if a split happens, I’ll make a 3rd to decide the victor of that matchup. NOTE: The first 2 games of a round will be SUNNY, BUT if a 3rd game is forced, it WILL BE FOGGY!
In making the bracket and its matchups, I will be using random.org to generate the pairings. So if you don’t like your matchup, blame chance, not me.
Also I would like to note that NON-PREMIUMS ARE WELCOME!!! All I ask is that you please try to leave 2 game slots open once the tournament begins. (You will have 5 days to join the games before I'll call on reserves)
Now on to the substance and plot of this tournament! Not the greatest, but it’ll do.
The story starts off with the “classic shapes” map, the normal world of today. But sadly things change, the world becomes more technological and populated, and countries split up, etc… This new battle front moves to the map “World 2.1.” But now with all these different countries, there is a high demand for supplies. So the Eastern world decides to cut off trading with the Western world and only trade amongst themselves. The western world (mainly the USA) is now left without oil, and other supplies coming from China and the Eastern world. This forces the USA to take catastrophic measures, and starts dropping Nukes in the Eastern world, this battle takes place on the map “Duck and Cover”. With all the nukes being dropped, and all the warfare taking place, toxic chemicals start to build up in the earths atmosphere, and “Extreme Global Warming” takes place. The human race battles to save the earth, but soon the earth becomes uninhabitable, and humans are forced to move to “Space.”
Who will come out on top in this battle for survival and conquest?
Or if you want a more condense summery of what was covered above, here it is and each maps settings as well:
• 1st round game will be located on the map “Classic Shapes”, playing with the settings of chained and no spoils.
• 2nd round game will be located on the map “World 2.1”, playing with the settings of unlimited and escalating.
• 3rd round game will be located on the map “Duck and Cover”, playing with the settings of adjacent and flat rate.
• 4th round game will be located on “Extreme Global Warming”, playing with the settings of chained and escalating.
• 5th round game will be located on “Space”, playing with the settings of chained and no spoils.
With the size of this tournament, I will need a handful of reserves as well!
And finally if anything doesn’t make sense or if you have any questions let me know.
