Rules:- I will PM you with your game assignments and passwords, and from that time you will have 5 days to join your game (to clear up a spot for Freemiums), after that time Reserves will be used.
- If you are found to have another player in the tournament on your Foe's list, you will be asked to remove them from it for the game. (Only when necessary.)
Complete Round-by-Round Guide:GUIDE:
[Round #] = [# of players left in the tournament at this point]
[Grade name] = [# of students in this grade] ā [# of games] x [# of players in each game] ā [# players advancing in each game] / [# players staying in each game] ā [total # players advancing] / [total # players staying]
āGoā means these students are on track in their education and will be moving up 1 grade.
āStayā means that these students are held back for another year
āAdvanceā means that these students were held back but have shown that they are ready to move on, and will be moving up 2 grade levels for next year instead of 1.
āOutā means that these students will be taken out of Battle School (they were held back too many times and cannot possibly complete the tournament in time to catch up with the rest)
Example: Kinder = 64 ā 8 x 8 ā 5/3 ā 40 go/24 stay
This tells me that there are 64 players in this grade. There are 8 games and 8 players in each game. 5 players in each game will be advancing and 3 players in each game will stay in the grade for next round. The total number of players advancing to 1st grade is 40, and a total of 24 will stay in Kindergarten.

Notes- The early rounds are MUCH easier to catch up from than later rounds. Meaning: If you lose early on you have a good chance of catching back up. If you lose very late in the tournament, however, there is a good chance you are out.
- This is the first tournament I have organized.

Being so, I have double-checked my math a lot and tried to make everything work smoothly. If you
do see any errors, PLEASE notify me! Thanks!
- If you have any questions, please feel free to ask.
- If you try to join a game to find that you are someoneās foe, do not hesitate to PM me about it so I am aware of the delay and so that person can kindly remove you from their foe list so you can participate.
- I will try to update this very frequently, but I must worry about going āBack to Schoolā myself, so I apologize for any delays.
- I will be using Random.org for all game and player matchings
