I’m expecting it to take quite some time to recruit fully for this one, so I’ve decided to start this thread now in the hopes that it is ready to go as some of the other tournaments I’m running conclude. I’ve been really looking forward to this tournament, which will be a mix of standard and terminator games and be “water-based”… all games will be played on maps depicting islands or the High Seas map.

So, without further adieu, I present to you “Initech VI: Island Adventure.” All pertinent details follow. Just reply to this thread if you wish to join. And feel free to ask any questions. Good luck to all that choose to join!

OVERVIEW
32-player, 3-round, 52-game, 10-map tournament. All players guaranteed five games. Max games for an individual player is 20.

ELIGIBLE PLAYERS
Premium only, sorry. You'll need more than 4 games open at all times.

MAPS
The following maps will be used: Australia, British Isles, Caribbean Islands, Greenland, High Seas, Iceland, Ireland, Malta, Oceania, Philippines.

RULES
Sequential, Chained, Flat Rate, Foggy for all games.
First round will be standard games.
Semifinals will be terminator.
Finals will be 50/50 mix of standard and terminator.

POINT SYSTEM
Standard map wins are worth 15 points.
Terminator map wins are worth 5 points with each elimination being worth 2 points.

ROUNDS
First round will be 8 groups of four players each. Each group will play 5 standard games on the following maps: Australia, Greenland, High Seas, Ireland and Malta. The top two in each group will advance to the semis.

The semis will consist of 2 groups of eight players each. Each group will play 5 terminator games on the following maps: British Isles, Caribbean Islands, Iceland, Oceania and Philippines. The top three in each group will advance to the finals.

The finals will consist of 1 group of six players each. The group will play 10 games—5 on standard on the maps from the first round and 5 terminator on the maps from the semifinals. The player with the most points is champion.

SEEDINGS
Once I have 32 entrants, I will divide everyone into four pots by points/rank. One person from each pot will randomly go into each first round group.

TIEBREAKERS
The first tiebreaker in the first round will be the fewer number of rounds it took in the games each player won. The second tiebreaker will be a game on the High Seas map under tournament settings.

The first tiebreaker in the semifinals will be the number of map wins in that round. The second tiebreaker will be the better performance in the first round (including, if necessary, the tiebreaker from the first round). The third tiebreaker will be a game on the High Seas map under tournament settings.

The first tiebreaker in the finals will be the number of map wins in that round. The second tiebreaker will be the number of standard map wins in that round. The third tiebreaker will be the number of points in the semifinals. The fourth tiebreaker will be the better performance in the first round (including, if necessary, the tiebreaker from the first round). The fifth tiebreaker will be a game on the High Seas map under tournament settings.
