In an effort to counter the distressing trend toward 1v1 tournaments, where this enticing game of skill and chance becomes a maddening game of merely chance (I concede only slight exaggeration), I'm starting a tournament that combines the popular concept of home-field advantage while dispensing the 2-player concept that was never really intended for this game.

League Setup
- 36 players, who will be seeded into six 6-player divisions. I have previously run a 54-player tournament and am currently running a 64-player tournament.
- Play will start on Tuesday, September 4, to allow for the summer vacation season to wrap up.
- entrants must be premium (you’ll see why below), and have a minimum score of 1050 (must be above minimum either at time of sign up or when I seed the divisions after the league is full)
- Each player will play 18 regular season games, and will be the home team for one 6-player game, one 5-player game, one 4-player game, and one 3-player game. (They will be the "road" team for five 6-player games, four 5-player games, three 4-player games, and two 3-player games.)
- the six division champions will advance to a Finals Division, and each division champion will play 18 games in the same format as the regular season. Finalists may submit new home-field settings for the Finals Division.
- Players will normally start 3 games each Monday, so the regular season will last approximately 8-10 weeks, with the finals another 8-10 weeks. The regular season should finish in early November, and I hope to crown a champion by Super Bowl Sunday (February). On rare occasion, you may start 2 or 4 games on a Monday.

Scoring
- Points will be awarded as follows:
6p 10/7/5/3/1/0
5p 9/7/5/1/0
4p 8/5/1/0
3p 6/3/0
* tiebreakers will be total points in previous round, then total wins in current round, then total wins in previous round, then fewest missed turns in current round, then coin-flip.


RESERVES DimnjacarStef (replaces rhapsodyinblah in Division 3 starting withing Week 3)

- All games will be standard sequential, and either escalating or flat-rate cards.
- Adjacent fortification is not allowed for 3-player games.
- When signing up, please also state your willingness to join 3 games on each of the following 6 days: 9/4, 9/10, 9/17, 9/24, 10/1, 10/8. You are welcome to have subs or baby-sitters at your discretion, but I would like a no-drop-out commitment. There’s no teeth to that, but I’d appreciate the commitment nevertheless.
